That makes is very, very real and something to be dealt with, not ignored as a "nutjob rant" lol. As I said, unless something concrete is found, then by this time next year only conservative nutjobs will be ranting about it.

I've just watched one of Carson's speeches and if Trump wants to win the nomination, he needs to come out with something strong in the coming days. Otherwise the GOP will nominate Carson and it wouldn't be a bad decision at all.

News: Donald Trump reaches all time high, 30%+ support in field of 17 for the past 3 months! Goons: He's gonna flame out any day now! *IF* Trump flames out, I don't think it will be a quick explosion like we saw in 2012 with the rise and fall of the not Romneys. I think it will be a slow burn with his support gradually trickling out to other candidates, and Rubio eventually taking the lead. The only conceivable way I could see Trump failing is if the voters get tired of his bad-boy renegade antics and eventually settle on the boring "serious" candidate that their mother met at the church and tried to set up a date with. That would eventually cause the news to cover other candidates more and Trump less. Of course that's a big *IF* and as of now I think Trump's larger than life personality might go the distance as he gradually releases actual policy statements. Everyone here who can, should vote Trump in the primary, if for no other reason to watch the parade of broken GOP spirits endorse Trump for president, just like the pledge said. Let's make America great again!

It will happen. Leave it to the guy with the Communist Jew avatar representing "progressive populism but u know not the racist kind like Trump is doing" to be the one using loaded terms like "evil" and "black guy" together to refer to a world-renowned neurosurgeon who has spent his entire providing healthcare in cities like Baltimore and Detroit after being raised by highly religious Southern parents. Like many black.. or any color really.. Americans who go on to become successful after growing up dirt poor in any number of America's horrible cities, Detroit in Carson's case, he had the military, religion, education, and his parents as anchors while surely many of his friends and peers growing up were selling heroin, smoking crack, shooting handguns at each other and police as street soldiers in gangs that provide all the drugs and guns to these communities in the first place, and Carson went on to be a surgeon working in Detroit for 30 years so he probably saw victims of shootings and crap every day. In fact, his life story is much more typical of an "African-American" than Obama's who was raised with overwhelming "white privilege" as people like to say nowdays. People who grow up in slums but end up successful after decades of hard work and pop up on Fox News here and there probably can't believe they survived growing up in the first place, and often give religion, law enforcement, etc a lot of credit. Yet even black people get called racist for talking about what they did as a poor black person to become successful, this is so commonplace with "left-wing people" nowadays it blows my genuinely left-wing mind. "If a white person talks about personal responsibility and bootstraps, they're dog whistling racism. Therefore when a black (or Hispanic like Ted Cruz) person explains their life story hoping it could help somebody growing up feeling like they have no future but death or jail, they too are simply lying racist shills for their White Republican Masters, because I'm a blowhard left wing douchebag that is intellectually incapable of engaging with points of view that make me question my own prejudices! After all, Black Republicans aren't REAL black people, so it's okay for me to think of them as stupid niggers!" People honestly seem to believe that when a minority like Ted Cruz or Ben Carson talks about how having two loving parents instead of fathers who are alcoholics, deadbeats, life in jail or dead or whatever excuses lovely selfish people make to not raise their own kids, Ted Cruz's father was like this himself before he became a born-again Christian and reunited with the young sad and scared Cruz and his mother, they simply get dismissed as racist. Nothing about their personal stories or experiences is even understood by 99 percent of "white liberal douchebags" also known as "SJWs" in certain circles. Ya'll a joke

See, I'm thinking that at the moment the most likely nominees are Carson, Rubio and Trump in no particular order. Rubio is the least broken establishment candidate, Carson's getting a head of steam going and Trump is Trump.

Have my take on Carson, I'll be taking a second to edit it in from my post history:quote:It would be ironic, but sort of quixotically charming, if Carson gains support to some degree because Republicans may have hosed up ideas about race, but they really really don't like to think of themselves as racist. Also, assuming that anyone posting in this thread is on the left is pretty naive; this whole forum exists to sop up shitposting. Hodgepodge fucked around with this message at 19:33 on Sep 3, 2015 |

The Nastier Nate posted:News: Donald Trump reaches all time high, 30%+ support in field of 17 for the past 3 months! In the last few cycles there have been several choices for the nutbars while only a couple at best for the establishment. This cycle every possible wing of the Republican party has at least a couple guys they can call their own running. As a result, everyone's power is diffused. Thus Trump reigns supreme in the summer when polls are of registered voters and he can bask in the bright light of the unengaged. He's entertaining, and shines bright like a glistening golden sun in the news. None can hope to gain the eye of the public with boring positions and concrete plans. There is no room to grow as all of the votes of people who've shown up to the Iowa Caucus for the last half century are split. Candidates jockeying for position try and out Trump Trump, angering Trump supporters and causing their existing supporters to flee the insanity. However this golden summer will not last. As Winter comes Trumps lock on the polls will wain with stricter limits on the sample and people actually tuning in for actual politics. Summer is the care free time for the fickle masses to gleefully clap as Nero fiddles, Winter is the time for them to look away from the boredom of politics toward things more important to them. For that is the time of the playoffs, and not even The Trump can hope to compete with the juggernaut twins of the NFL and NCAA for attention.
