OP I disagree. America is already great. Please do not disparage our great country. If Trump will make our country greater, I am willing to hear that case, but I am not willing to accept this argument, as outlined in the OP.

I think Trump has a good chance if he continues playing on the embittered malevolence of the average Republican.

Even with the drop in support on the final night of the survey, Trump was the favorite of 24 percent of registered Republicans and Republican-leaning independents.

Well I guess it's now official. 1 out 4 republicans are actually retarded.

Even if conservative voters do get tired of him I don't think the two situations have much in common.

Being a front-runner in such a crowded field roughly 16 months before the election means slightly less than gently caress all.

If Trump remains a contender, I will ride a donkey backward through here, and you can point and laugh.

It's pretty funny that these polls will be used to determine who can enter the primary debates though.

Donald Trump wouldn't be half the Wall-Street shill that Hillary Clinton will or gently caress over working people half as hard as her.

I hope he keeps going and keeps making GBS threads all over retards like Hillary and Jeb Bush.

My one criticism so far would be that he could be a little more honest and plain spoken. Stop beating around the bush and just literally say "gently caress YOU" every time some idiot loser journalist asks him to apologize for or backtrack his latest politically incorrect statement.

I rolled my eyes when this guy entered the race, but then he proceeded to start pissing off and drawing the ire of rear end-holes everywhere. The RNC chairman called him and told him to be quiet. Karl Rove whined about him. Hillary Clinton talked him down. Some Mexican drug lord threatened him on Twitter. GOP crybabies wailed and moaned over his jab at McCain.

At the rate he's going, by the time the first primary actually rolls around, every piece of human garbage in the media and in politics will be against him, which frankly will only make him look better in my eyes. Anyone that can make rear end-holes and poo poo-heads from every walk of life, from a Democrat like Shillery to a GOP stooge like Rove to a Mexican mobster, unite against him must have SOME redeeming quality.

Crybaby bitches everywhere are being SHOCKED and OFFENDED by this guy. He's an American hero for that IMHO. When was the last time that loser John McCain made anyone cry???

He clowned on a doddering old monster who crashed four separate planes for being tortured in a cage.

He leaked the personal cell number of America's greatest incel senator. I can't even say leaked, he brazenly read it aloud at a campaign event.

A drug lord on the lam put a $100 million bounty on his pouty little head

He called a close partner and ally a nation of 112,000,000 rapists. Meanwhile he is pretty much the solitary figure in American politics who is honest about economic motives for the Iraq war, by repeatedly threatening to go 19th century on that country's resources.



If the serious-business beltway crowd weren't so apoplectic that he's revealing the big joke, this man would have a chapter in every US History textbook going forward. He still might.

yeah really, none of his stated "positions" are unusual for the party.

it's just that when stated plainly, the party's positions are obviously offensive. normally, the horrific positions are encapsulated in shells of Luntzian mindcraft, so it's harder to notice or call out. but when vomited out of a trumpet, the encoding is lost, and it's all niggers niggers niggers

I first purchased these by mistake, believing that they were regular M&Ms (how did I miss that bright red packaging?) But I was wrong - they're bigger and better than regular M&Ms. Donald Trump once said that, "Sometimes your best investments are the ones you don't make"; but this is one investment I don't regret.

It'd be cheaper to annex everything down to Panama, kick everyone out, and build a wall down there. That'd probably follow Trump's real estate procedures pretty closely too.

Emigration is an excellent social safety valve in Mexico, and the government knows it. Over 10% of Mexico's population lives in the US, most of them poor and undocumented, but also most of them earning enough to send remittances to Mexico. The government has absolutely no interest in stanching emigration.
