The problem with Trump is, he will say what the masses want (hence, him being described as "calling them as they are") but he can also vastly inconsistent. At least with the other guys, you know where they stand. With Trump, you don't know where he'll stand if the wind changes.

I'll let a more articulate man describe it:

Considering Trump has just segued from business to DC it's interesting to me that there's been no major s*** publicly dug up and held against him. That alone is pretty amazing IMHO. As you can be sure the Dems will have been digging for it like crazy.

Compare and contrast to the Dems on Capitol Hill, and they look like a farm 'muck-spreader' has been to and fro on them for years, they're completely buried up to their necks in it.

p.s. I seem to recall one of the NYC news anchors breaking down in tears when she had to announce the GOP had won. Impartiality in the media... phhh (same in the UK with the BBC).

Have you seen Trump's competitors during the primaries? What a bunch of incompetent nincompoops. Actually a lot of ammo of Trump has already been dug up but for some reason, Trump's detractors haven't capitalized on them. You'd think Jeb Bush's camp would have but didn't.

The dems would have been suffered a blow on the head if they don't if Trump wins the Republican nomination.

Trump is just the America I know finally coming out of the closet. The things he is saying I've heard from yanks for decades and it got seriously ramped up when GOP allowed elements to claim 'the goddamn nigger born in Kenya muslim' got into the WH and the GOP didn't shut that shit down. They are reaping what they sowed and tended to. Personally I have no issues with the GOP exploding into a million bits. In a few years these tards are going to look back to the Obama years with Nostalgia. OR maybe not; racists are racists.

To Nakatogo's post... you're right mate... the anti-Trump messages too often play the wrong way and are absolutely indicative of how disconnected the elite are. Take today's blast from an anti Trump poster.... I can just imagine half of the US male population saying "Well sheeeit... I'd prefer her in the WH to Hilldog!"

Poster in point:

Probably just boosted Trump's ratings with that one.

Depending on our readership we aren't aware of, may have boosted other things as well. ;-)

oh well, panic at the disco. the big cartels who have pumped a lot of cash into clinton the shrew and cruz the botoxed are a lllitle bit shaken by the popularity of trump and bernie. and they don't understand a damn thing! their political puppets are reading a text made by a team of pr experts, as the last 10 presidents did. but hey, after 60 years of pr, even the masses can tell when it's a fabricated text. trump has no text, he's a tv man. so he can be spontaneous. bernie has a vision. you may call it socialist, but it's something different. it may or it may not work. he's voted by those for whom the current system does not work. and - wow - the system doesn't work for 45% of the democrats!! but still both parties are fighting teeth and nails to defend the establishment. problem is - they're fighting with the same pr weapons which are already NOT working.

remember what trump said about him not losing his voters even if he kills someone in ny? same goes for bernie.
