At least then the GOP could/would disavow them instead of flirting with them and letting them influence their policies and rhetoric. Having them be part of a major party that can take over states or the federal government is also dangerous.

Lol like hell they would

How goes the disavowing of Trump?

The position of president should be split into 2 positions. One elected by the congress to oversee the meat of legislative matters. A second elected by the people to handle international relations and presidential addresses. Both should get the veto but also a veto-veto.

The president doesn't really have a lot of power unless congress lets them. A major problem we have had in recent history is a congress that mostly agrees with the president. Even if Republicans and Democrats disagree on small issues they hold a bi-partisan consensus on many major issues in these cases they fail to act as a check and balance as intended. A president that is outside the mainstream would likely have much more limited power as congress moves to block their more radical actions.

The position of president should be split into 2 positions. One elected by the congress to oversee the meat of legislative matters. A second elected by the people to handle international relations and presidential addresses. Both should get the veto but also a veto-veto.

So you're saying that an override should be placed in one person's hands? No, that doesn't work. Also, have you been paying attention to the news for the last 5.5 years and how obstructionist congress is? They couldn't even get a budget passed and automatic cuts went into effect. Honestly, it seems more things are likely to get done with a republican president compared to a democratic if how things went under Reagan and both Bushes compares to Bill and Obama.

Anyway, Congress actually delegated a lot of power to the executive branch, from setting EPA, OSHA, and other regulations, to setting what the threshold to qualify for overtime pay when you're on salary (which Obama exercised this year).

The hosed up thing is that Trump would be 74 by that point. People have to remember that the guy's old, which might legitimately explain some of the senility at this point.

Okay real talk. DO NOT ANSWER TO THESE loving SHILLS!! loving payed assholes are trying to undermine this last bastion of freedom. Seriously. The past few months since november 2015 were the best months I had for years. As a german I have to see my country get ripped apart of rapefugees and mental ill lefties. I've lost friends over the time because of my thinking about trump and that he is really the last hope of the western world and I lurk on this board more than ever. But now it is a total desaster here on 4chan. I want my platform back. I want to chant with the us bros again when trump is live on one of his rallys. I want to banter with you guys. But I dont want these fuckers from CTR here. It feels like we live in loving north korea. Jesus. I just cant wait for the first debatte and god help us all that trump will crush hillary like a little loving turkroach. I cant stand her face I cant stand the media shilling and I cant stand my bluepilled friends anymore. Ffs I feel like I got a mental breakdown. But I will never give up and I just have one thing to tell:

There’s no doubt about it — the liberal media’s polls are rigged from the bottom up. How do we know this?

Simple — social media. Trump’s following on the major social media networks absolutely blow Clinton out of the water.

Allow me to prove it:

Facebook

Trump: 10,174,358 Likes
Clinton: 5,385,959 Likes

Trump nearly doubles the amount of Likes than Clinton Now — some people follow Trump who don’t like him, so let’s look at some posts. Here’s the stats for his latest Facebook live stream:

Trump Live Stream Post — 21 hours ago: 135,000 likes, 18,167 shares, 1.5 million views
Clinton Live Stream Post — 25 hours ago: 11,000 likes, 0 shares, 321,000 views

Since Clinton has zero shares, here’s the next best original post I could find from Clinton, albeit it’s not a live stream post:

Clinton post — 30 hours ago: 22,000 Likes, 7241 Shares, 773,000 views

Any way you slice it, Trump is crushing Clinton on Facebook interaction. One quick note regarding Facebook — you’ll find that on almost half of Clinton FB posts, the top comments are from Trump supporters, whereas the the top comments on Trump’s page are hardcore supporters only.

Twitter

Trump: 10.6 million followers
Hillary: 8.1 million followers

Trump has 30% more Twitter followers — and they translate into real votes. A recent study confirmed that 70% of his followers are real supporters, and 90% of those real followers have a voting history.

Hillary’s “twitter army” is likely made up of dead voters and illegals.

YouTube Live Stream

Trump: Averages 30,000 live viewers per stream
Clinton: Averages 500 live viewers per stream

Trump has 5900% more live viewers than Clinton.

Instagram

Trump: 2.2 million followers
Clinton: 1.8 million followers

Trump has 22% more Instagram followers — which is impressive considering it’s a liberal cesspool consisting of college hipsters who can’t seem to take enough selfies.

Reddit

Trump: 197,696 subscribers
Hillary: 24,429 subscribers
Hillary for Prison: 55,228 subscribers

Hillary for Prison’s Reddit feed has more than double subscribers of Hillary’s reddit page, equating to Trump having 700% more Reddit subscribers.

Don’t listen to the lying media — the only legitimate attack they have left is Trump’s poll numbers. Social media proves the GOP nominee has strong foundation and a firm backing.

SHARE on Facebook and Twitter and let us know what you think of this proof showing Trump dominating social media!

From the comments:

quote:

We have just completed our own poll since we cannot get factual information from the mainstream media!! We called 1000 homes in each of the 50 states and asked basic questions on the economy, terrorism, immigration and presidential pick.
Economy was the number one factor that Americans are concerned about and terrorism was number two.
Presidential pick was Trump by a large percentage.
Trump 33478 votes 67%
Clinton 9788 Votes 19%
Undecided or other 6739 votes 13%
My friends and I are all Graduate students from all walks of life we meet to discuss stuff. 13 people who like and have served in the Military. It took us most of two weeks to be sure our calls were to all people and not just one party or an other we called Americans.. our poll is by taking registered voter lists and we accumulated 33% repub, 33% dems and 34% ind.. our poll consisted of 1000 calls per state. all 50 states. 50,000 people are in this poll not the 100 like other polls.
