[SIZE=10pt]5) "I watched when the World Trade Center came tumbling down. And I watched in Jersey City, New Jersey, where thousands and thousands of people were cheering as that building was coming down.

[SIZE=10pt]8) “I am embracing the issue, and I’m proud of the issue. I think somebody has to embrace it because, frankly, the people that are – and I don’t like the name ‘birther,’ because I think it’s very unfair and I think it’s very derogatory to a lot of very good people that happen to think that there’s a possibility that this man was not born in this country, and by the way, if that were true, you know it’s very interesting, if that were true, it’d be the greatest scam in the history of this country.”[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10pt]9)) "You know, when (Ben Carson) says he went after his mother and wanted to hit her in the head with a hammer. That bothers me. I mean, that's pretty bad. I'm not saying anything other than pathological is a very serious disease. And he said he's pathological, somebody said he has pathological disease. It's in the book that he's got a pathological temper. That's a big problem because you don't cure that. You don't cure these people. You don't cure a child molester. There's no cure for it. Pathological, there's no cure for that."[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10pt]10) “Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?! I mean, (Carly Fiorina’s) a woman, and I'm not supposed to say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?"[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10pt]18) “There’s many different ways (to fix health care), by the way. Everybody’s got to be covered. This is an un-Republican thing for me to say because a lot of times they say, ‘No, no, the lower 25 percent that can’t afford private.’ But...I am going to take care of everybody. I don’t care if it costs me votes or not. Everybody’s going to be taken care of much better than they’re taken care of now....the government’s gonna pay for it.” – Trump still supporting single payer, government-run healthcare in 2015[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10pt]21) “Bush was a disaster for the country as well as for the Republican Party. Then he asked me about Barack Obama. I told him that Barack will need to be a great president because we’re in serious trouble as a country. It hasn’t been this way since 1929. So he doesn’t have much choice—he will simply have to be great, which he has a very good chance of being. What he has done is amazing. The fact that he accomplished what he has—in one year and against great odds—is truly phenomenal.” (2009)[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10pt]23) “I think pretty strongly that (Bill de Blasio will) end up being a good mayor, maybe a very good mayor and I don’t think he’s going to want to kill the golden goose. ...I think he’s a smart guy that knows what’s going on really big league and I think he is not going to want to destroy New York. I think he is going to want to make New York great.” (2013)[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10pt]24) "(Hillary Clinton is) very talented, very smart. She's a friend of mine, so I'm a little prejudiced." (2007)[/SIZE]

I know several Democrats that will vote for Trump over Clinton.  They are definitely anti-establishment and detest Hillary.  I also know Republicans that will vote for Hillary because they don't want to risk instability with Trump.

That's what this is going to come down to, establishment vs. change.  I think the economy at the time of the elections will have a big impact.

ABC poll: Trump surge due to massive 36% millennial swing

A shocking new poll from ABC News reveals Hillary Clinton is losing to Donald Trump nationwide 46 percent to 44 percent. That’s an 11 percent shift from March, when Trump trailed Clinton by 9 points.

What was the biggest driver in this shift in the polls? Surprisingly, it’s young voters.

Clinton’s support among young voters ages 18 to 29 has dropped 19 percent since March — and Trump has gained 17 percent support from the same demographic. That’s a 36 percent swing.

While Clinton leads Trump in the demographic 45 to 42 percent, this margin in the general election would ensure a Republican landslide. Mitt Romney lost the youth vote to Barack Obama by more than 20 percent, and even a 10 percent Democrat margin would still ensure a decisive victory for Trump.

So, why the big shift?

ABC suggests the shift may be defections from Bernie Sanders’ campaign, many of whom are furious with Clinton and the establishment. ABC noted “[a]nother result indicating Sanders-related defections is the number of liberals saying they’d support Trump vs. Clinton — now 24 percent, up 8 points from March.”

“[Clinton is] losing 20 percent of Bernie Sanders’ supporters to Trump,” ABC found.

Sanders supporters, frustrated by what many of them call the DNC “rigging” the primary, are abandoning the Democrat Party over this fight. A poll last week showed 18 percent of millennials, including many Sanders voters, would support third-party candidate Gov. Gary Johnson. If Johnson fails to receive the Libertarian nomination or doesn’t make the main debates, this ABC poll indicates that many more would consider Trump than was originally thought.

This is an abrupt change in polling, and we will continue to monitor this pattern to see if it continues. Just a few weeks ago, 80 percent of millennials disapproved of Trump’s candidacy. Now, 42 percent support him for president.

My best guess? Republican millennials are settling into supporting Trump, while independents and Sanders supporters are disgusted by the Democrat Party’s Super Delegate system and Clinton’s establishment brand of politics. Millennials still don’t like Trump, but right now, they despise the Clinton Machine even more.

The question is: Can Trump take advantage of this attitude? His advisor rolled out an excellent college affordability plan this month. Now would be the time to take it to young communities nationwide, while also continuing his economic jobs-focused message.

:rolleyes:  Trump doesn't need to know this kind of stuff. He is going to bring on the best and the brightest in every department and make America great again. America is going to have so much energy that we're going to tell the Saudi's to suck our big American ####. You better believe it.
Yes, yes he does need to know what he's talking about.

In other words: you're saying he has no idea what he's talking about and he doesn't need to know an energy source from his elbow to be president and that he doesn't need to know what he's talking about to be president and I'm gonna go ahead and say you're wrong on that.

Why do Trump supporters constantly rebut with "But look at Hillary/Hillary supporters!". Do you guys really not realize how awful of a line that is when debating? If you murder someone, your attorney isn't going to stand in front of a judge and go "Well, I know this other guy who murdered someone.".

Hillary, Trump and their supporters. You all ####### suck.
What are you talking about?  I wasn't debating anybody I was making a statement.  The Hillary Clinton thread is 100 times worse than this thread is.  Go read it if you don't believe me.  

 
Yeah what a burn.

Beautiful.

 
I have some questions for Trump supporters. Please tell me if you agree with Mr. Trump when he made the following statements regarding President Obama's birth:  

Why doesn't he show his birth certificate? There's something on that birth certificate that he doesn't like.

He's spent millions of dollars trying to get away from this issue...I'm starting to wonder myself whether he was born in this country.

There is something on that birth certificate — maybe religion, maybe it says he's a Muslim, I don't know. Maybe he doesn't want that. Or, he may not have one.
I can't believe Hillary would bring up something so hurtful.

For Hillary, this.... is a problem.

I'm guessing in her briefing books from early 2015 or even late 2014 there were a few assumptions made and dominating among young voters and women were two of them.

It always has been. The Clinton Bush Obamas have left them with no jobs, their first choice was a free ride to college , now that the pipe dream has been crushed their second best option is to get a job with Trump. 

 
Has Trump gotten rid of the gun free zones at his hotels and courses yet?
Of course not but he wants to get rid of gun free zones in schools, maybe sort of.

"I don't want to have guns in classrooms. Although, in some cases, teachers should have guns in classrooms. … Things that are going on in our schools are unbelievable. You look at some of our schools, unbelievable what's going on. But I'm not advocating guns in classrooms. But remember, in some cases, and a lot of people have made this case, teachers should be able to have guns. Trained teachers should be able to have guns."

We don't care. We are coming for ya. Run and hide. We got the lead in the latest polls. Time to stock up on depends because you are going to be ####ting your pants soon.

 
Question for Hillary supporters:

Do you support those that enable rapists and pedophiles and intimidate/threaten/silence sexual assault victims?

What I really should stock up on, if Trump wins the presidency, are guns to protect myself from the tyranny he will attempt to impose. 

Whats a good rifle for a beginner? 

 
You Hillary shills have ruined this thread, every other Trump thread, and the Bernie thread. Can you loons just stick to your own thread, keep all of your intolerance, bigotry, fear mongering, and hypocrisy in one place?

The rest of the FFA thanks you in advance!

Yeah...I'm sure that will work out well.

I'll go back to Gumby after Trump becomes president. I am trying to make America great again. Since I am posting with a picture of Trump I assume you now read my posts with class and bravado.

There may be some of that, but I think the Millennial shift (if it's real) has more to do with social dynamics than consideration of the economy or the issues.

Younger people tend to be lemmings who follow what's fashionable to be accepted.  The Millennials converting from Clinton to Trump likely never really liked Clinton in the first place, but they were scared away from supporting Trump because the stigma among younger people that Trump followers are racist, sexist, or some other horrible -ist.  Older people are more secure in themselves and tend to care less about being labeled.

Once some Millennials saw the growing number of Trump Bros on campus with outward Trump support they figured that it's now safer for them to convert over.  Safety in numbers.  Some may even see it as now being counter-culture fashionable to support Trump.

I like my forecasters who can predict the outcome before the game starts, not at half-time.

VP Biden: Split Iraq into 3 different regions
Sanders and Obama: " I don't oppose all wars.... I oppose dumb wars." 
I think Sanders is the only one who gets credit here. Obama wasn't in Congress and did not have to vote and at any rate he was in a safe state senate district. Sanders took a tough stand when it looked like it would be Gulf War II, that is he could have faced a Republican opponent and have to explain why he opposed what was looking like it would be an easy 1-2 month conquest like the prior version. And Trump, while I don't believe he was against the Iraq War, was just a civilian anyway, so it wasn't on him one way or the other. Hillary however brought her husband's administration's assessments on to the Senate floor to lead others and give cover to others, her speech was influential to making it happen.

Not excusing her vote, but the war was going to happen with or without her speech.

Yeah, I realize that, but I do think her speech both persuaded and gave cover to other Democrats, plus it gave some very nice cover to the administration and buttressed their arguments by personally vouching for what the Clinton administration had done. I do believe she was being earnest when she voted though, she thought it was the right thing.

 
Not excusing her vote, but the war was going to happen with or without her speech.
Exactly, and all the other Senate Democrats who were to run for President in the future all voted for it, Kerry, Biden and Edwards. The idea that Hillary influenced Kerry and Biden into making it happen is silly, like they and the Democrats would have voted differently if not for Hillary. Please.

 
all the other Senate Democrats who were to run for President in the future all voted for it, Kerry, Biden and Edwards
Because they were thinking of running for president perhaps.

Kerry especially is galling considering he opposed Iraq War I, but voted for Iraq War II. Never understood that one.

 
But squis before you go off on me, or instead of that, let's just agree that Trump has zero evidence that he predicted anything or made any intelligent noises when this was going down, at all.

Keep it up, Donald. ...
Yaknow, I'm starting to wonder if Hillary will actually debate Trump if he is pulling this stuff this early.

Personally I think Donald is a genu-wine 100% Grade-A InfoWars conspiracy nut, but whether intentionally or unintentionally he may be pushing her into refusing to debate him. Or not, I don't know, but there is a decent chance he is going to sling some poop in a debate. This is really personally offensive, to her, if it was said to her face. Trump sort of did this with Cruz's uncle. Which may make her look good when she confronts him, I don't know, or maybe she just lets him and be dignified.  The weird or scary thing about him is that he seems much more concerned with ratings and entertainment and satisfying his own predilections, or playing mind games, than getting ready to be president or showing people he should be.

Trump escalates attack on Bill Clinton


...

When asked in an interview last week about the Foster case, Trump dealt with it as he has with many edgy topics — raising doubts about the official version of events even as he says he does not plan to talk about it on the campaign trail.

He called theories of possible foul play “very serious” and the circumstances of Foster’s death “very fishy.”

“He had intimate knowledge of what was going on,” Trump said, speaking of Foster’s relationship with the Clintons at the time. “He knew everything that was going on, and then all of a sudden he committed suicide.”

He added, “I don’t bring [Foster’s death] up because I don’t know enough to really discuss it. I will say there are people who continue to bring it up because they think it was absolutely a murder. I don’t do that because I don’t think it’s fair.”
