trump actually came out against single payer healthcare in his book I CRIPPLED AMERICA AND YOU'RE NEXT http://www.cnn.com/2015/11/03/politics/donald-trump-book-crippled-america-5-things/ CNN posted:Still, Trump doesn't deny his past support for a single-payer health care system, simply explaining that "the world has changed; I've changed. I don't think a single-payer system makes sense anymore. If I did, I would say it." edit: and trump is definitely about bombing the poo poo out of ISIS and taking their oil, that's like one of his 2 big campaign things.

im pretty sure trump has basically said nothing about drugs and he certainly wont say anything during the republican primary, and he has shown himself to be hard on crime before so i have no idea where that came from. and he wants to destroy isis and gently caress up iran so the "avoiding foreign entaglement" doesnt make any sense honestly you dont seem to actually know what trump stands for besides KICK THE ILLEGALS OUT

I'm not fully a non-ironic Trump supporter just yet but I'm coming around the idea more and more every day. Why? Because if Trump becomes president I believe he will be above all a disrupter. Out of all the candidates, if they become president and have to deal with the lobbyists, the political money men, the power brokers, the banksters, the mainstream media - all of these greedy, corrupt, parasitic, interests who wield overwhelming and completely undue influence in our economy and our society, Donald Trump seems by far to be the one most likely to to tell them to go gently caress themselves and actually back up his threats with actions. The fact that he is over 60 and a world famous multi-billionaire makes it hard to imagine anything substantial that any these people can really do for him. His status is such that he says he can't be bought off by special interests it is actually somewhat believable. The only thing he has left to achieve is a lasting legacy of being adored by the masses for Making America Great Again, and I think if given the chance he will at least attempt to take some of these fuckers down a notch if for no other reason that it'll feel great doing it, and he can write a book bragging about his war stories and body count. I also don't believe for a second that he will actually try to build a border wall or track Muslims in a database. He is saying these these to pander to the republican base because if he talked about his actual positions he wouldn't be able to win the nomination of either party. If Trump gets the nom his pivot to the center will be the biggest pivot ever, and an actual centrist working to move the country forward and do something for the %99 is far more palatable to me than a life long corporatist elitist with nothing but lip service and platitudes for us but everything else for them. Our politics are so broken and dysfunctional in this country that we need a major disruption, a serious shock to the system to have any hope dislodging the political and economic elites robbing us blind daily from their position of owning two branches of government and renting out the third. I had high hopes for Obama but in hindsight those were foolish and naive hopes in the first place. I'm on the verge of honestly supporting Trump because he seems to be in a better position than anyone else I've seen in my lifetime to actually start changing the system from within, simple as that.

Isn't it about time the USA had a truly awful president, though? I mean we've had plenty of this everyday "just evil enough to split the historians' opinion" stuff. We need someone who's an honest-to-god insane megalomaniac. The USA needs its own Idi Amin or Saparmurat Niyazov.

He didn't need to refuse to take the donations, it was his idea in the first place. Trump is a rich person who is just sane enough to understand money is a means to an end, not the be-all and end-all of existence.

It's key to his entire image of not being beholden! They can't donate enough to offset the "value" of him not taking it, it's still money.

eh I don't think the bern/trump comparisons are insane, both have economic platforms/rhetoric around protecting american labor. Trump has 45% tariffs on china, opposition to the TPP, taxes/penalties on companies that use inversions, opposition to illegal immigrants, remove taxes for onshoring cash to encourage domestic mfg investment, etc. Bern has high minimum wages, opposition to the TPP, higher/more progressive taxes, more social safety nets, limits on H1Bs, free college education, etc. Same protectionist rhetoric, same working class anger - different means to accomplish it

I, too, feel that the devastation of my nation's infrastructure and institutions is totally worth it if it means people on the TV who annoy me are, maybe, sort of humiliated, possibly, at some future point in time. Indeed, my anticipation of this outcome is more important than not drinking piss from a water fountain or being paid a half-passable wage.
