A few thoughts:

 

#1: What did Trump say about Iraq and/or 9/11?  Someone internet it for me, I'm too lazy.

 

 

 

Poor Jeb...haha. and what an absolute idiot Rubio is at the end, just so stupid.

 

 

 

Then with slimeball Cruz:

#2: Hillary is abrasive.  More so than Trump?  Hillary's fine when not speaking to a campaign crowd.  Campaigns encourage her to yell into a mic, which is bad for her.  But when she just talks, the abrasion goes away.  Trump, on the other hand, is the most abrasive candidate I can remember, at least with a shot to win.  To some extent that's his appeal, but you can imagine 8 years of him acting like this?  It's embarrassing.  And for him it's not about yelling; it's about his attitude.

Trump hasn't been in such a spotlight as Hillary. She's been hated for decades. Some cant stand to just look at her. While Trump has been around for decades as well(I remember him hosting Wrestlemania IV when I was a kid), its entirely different.

 

You even mention its part of his appeal and you're right...he's just "telling it like it is".  What looked like a fringe candidacy at first is now the most mainstream.

 

Hillary bitches about lobbyists while taking record breaking amounts of cash from them. Trump bitches about lobbyists and takes nothing from them. One is a hypocrite who will do anything to get the presidency. One is honest and letting the average voter see the system for what it is.

 

She's in deep doo doo  if he gets the nomination.

The GOP is splitting up right now. I'm sure people say that during every primary, but this is different. A lot of establishment Republicans don't like Trump at all. My tea party Mother in Law hates him, and said she would not vote if he was the nominee. She's a hardcore Fox watchin' conservative, who told me she would stay home if he wins.

 

Republicans also hate Cruz.

 

The also hate Bush.

 

I'm sure you get my point...

 

I do enjoy watching Trump, mostly because these guys aren't used to anybody talking to them like that. They don't know how to handle it.

Looks like Jeb is about to drop out...all that money and nada.

Jeb looks like exactly what he is, a man running for President because his father and brother did. Well coached but with the charisma of a middle aged math teacher.

It's like something out of an SNL skit

Rubio needs to knock out Kasich quick.  Both Kasich and Carson are just wasting time, and most of their votes should go to Rubio once they bow out.  This is really the only chance to get out in front of Trump.  Any notion of Sander's beating Hillary is becoming less and less likely everyday.  I just don't know where Cruz votes will go.  I have a hunch it'll be split evenly between Rubio and Trump - the ultra religious will go to Rubio while the bigots will run to Trump.  

 

I don't like Rubio.  He comes across as robotic and he's done nothing to show he's able to break the partisan gridlock.  But between Trump and Rubio, it's not much of a decision.

Hard to see Trump not winning.

I believe Rubio is weak. Not Presidential material at all. Veep yes (I see parallels to Dan Quayle myself), El Presidente...no. However, I thought he had decent odds of ending up the nominee. I agree that he robotic, and gives good canned speeches. Off the cuff, he's not very strong. 

 

I don't see Cruz going anywhere until he absolutely has to. That man is determined and I can't believe he's gotten as far as he has. 

 

Kasich can't have much money left at this point...

 

Would you vote for Trump if he is the nominee? 

[PERM BANNED]

It's hard to say.  On one level I appreciate that Trump isn't willing to cater to political correctness.  I like that he's willing to speak honestly about immigration and not continue the narrative "don't break up families" (the children are free to go to their native country too).  I actually like that he's willing to consider universal healthcare, because I think if he was somehow able to get GOP support, it could be done right.  I like that he's at least talking about jobs - though he's vague on specifics, but someone needs to take job creation very seriously and not boast when they've lost full time jobs and replaced it with more people working part-time, underpaid jobs.  I won't vote for Clinton, so if I can't get over  Trump's intellectual laziness, I'll probably leave it blank.

 

Clinton has some ideas I value, but in my opinion, she's nothing but a power hungry, value absent, dishonest person.  Her entire life has been spent calculating and manipulating things for this moment.  Nothing about her is authentic, and I won't support her belief that she is entitled or worthy of the Presidency.

I'm with Toaster...I love seeing what Trump is doing to the party/establishment. We've never seen an election like this before.You're right...no one knows how to handle this because its unprecedented. Did you ever imagine you would ever see presidential debates like this?

 

I've said this before but another reason I'm loving this is its how I always envisioned a Jesse Ventura run for the presidency would be. I wonder if Jesse wishes he had jumped in now that he sees how the American people will react to such a candidacy.

 

I wish Kasich could catch on. We need a solid alternate in case Trump's campaign crashes and burns somehow.

Thank God. It needs to come down to Trump, Cruz, Rubio, and Kasich. IMO Cruz and Rubio are not electable and maybe more people would reconsider Kasich. If not, Trump is going all the way. The republican convention is going to be bat shit crazy.

[Mr. Roboto]

. The republican convention is going to be bat shit crazy.

 

If he takes it all the way, I'l be glued to the TV.
