Official Donald Trump for President thread (3 Viewers)

I find it funny you jumped right to the "Sexism" card.  While Trump is offensive and says stupid things Hillary is liar and belongs in prison.  I can handle behavior issues, I can't handle criminal activity/corrupt government. 
Never understood this...or, at the very least, never understood how it can be anyone's chief complaint about CLinton, yet can't see or acknowledge it in Trump, who, from every remotely objective measurement, lies both FAR MORE OFTEN and about FAR MORE TRIVIAL things. All politicians lie about stuff, Trump lies about pretty much everything as if it's just habit.

 
I don't seen many Republicans laughing about much of anything today.
I don't consider myself a Republican, but I've pulled for their candidates in most years in the two-party contest.  I'm definitely laughing right now.  This implosion is exactly what this candidate and this party deserve right now.  

Also, I'm hoping this will get Johnson above 10% now.  That would be sweet.

 
The sad thing is that Republican's are not upset that Trump is a racist and sexist know nothing whose only claim to fame in inheriting a bunch of wealth, it is that he is all of those things and he is going to lose the election. If he would win they would be perfectly happy with him and what he stands for.

Trump getting hammered should be a good thing.  Though, some already turning hope to another tea party religious nut like Pence...so, that hope may not work out to well either.

 
Trying to have sex with a married woman when you are a married man makes you a scumbag, but not a pervert.
When that same scumbag has been actively attacking the sexual morals of his opponent's husband, well.......that scumbag is a special kind of stupid

Yup. On the first part.

Johnson can have 20% as long as Trump doesn't win.

 
Hillary's campaign keeps bring up personal attacks.  She is the one who does not want to keep the focus on policies.
:lol:  Yeah sure. They are both bringing up personal attacks.

Hillary would be fine focusing on policies, Trump has no policies except a wall. Focusing on policy in a debate would be a bloodbath for Clinton.

Exactly.  It will not end well for her to talk about her policies.

 
I watched the first debate.  It was mostly personal attacks coming out of Hillary's mouth.  She does not talk about policy differences with Trump.

 
Pence is more dangerous than Trump. He's a Cruz type theocrat who thinks the earth is 6k years old. #### that guy.
This kind of ridiculous talk is what creates the stupid political environment that we have right now and has given us two candidates who shouldn't even have been in contention. 

When perfectly reasonable people are demonized like this simply because you disagree with a few of their stances, each side figures they may as well go to the extreme since every single candidate will be painted as extreme anyway. Stop acting like every politician is really the next Hitler or Dr.Strangelove just because you don't like some of their moral views. It's ignorant and counterproductive.

How can you take a person seriously if they believe in hilariously foolish things like this planet only 6,000 years old?  It's just a miserable starting point.  This would be the guy that guides science funding for the country.  People just don't want a leader that is completely divorced from science.

 
They won't react well. Free trade is not popular; Hillary is wise to keep her ultimate position on this hidden. That makes her like most politicians. How does it make her corrupt?

(Also, I should add that Hillary can be for free trade in general but against TPP because, as its' opponents claim, it has little to do with free trade. I don't agree with that position, but it's certainly a legitimate position, and based on everything Hillary has said and written on this issue, there is no reason to assume she is lying about it.)
It's the best word they could come up with from their limited vocabulary.  What they mean is 'deceitful' but that doesn't generate the clicks like 'corrupt' does.

 
The one slightly reassuring thing is that I don't think any woman has ever actually had her ##### grabbed by Trump.

Anyone think this is anything other than a lie?  Of course not.

If Trump was a real poon hound, as he claims, we would have had loads and loads of former one night stands out there telling their story.  We have had almost NONE of that.  I remember some story about a woman who went ona  first date, that's it.   He has gone from trophy wife to trophy wife.  

He talks about getting tail the way guys that never get tail talk about getting tail.  
He's rich and famous...he's pulled more tail than any 5 FBGs.

He's probably made most sign NDAs ;)

I'd be willing to bet that over the next several years, a half dozen women will come forward and tell their stories. How long did Cosby gt away with it?

I was saying this in the other thread. This is the psychology that leads people to vote for a true ####### like Trump. 

When everyone is accused of serious charges about nebulous and benign things, people throw their lot in with the truly authentic, which can at times lead to degradation and awfulness.  

 
If people on this board start getting on Trump because of what he said on Stern, I'm seriously going to larf. 

Getting on him for Megyn Kelly, groping, et. al is one thing; getting on him for Stern better not be this board's meme. That's hilarious. 

Stern rose to prominence saying #### like Trump says. And this board happens to like Stern. 

eta* Oh, I hate Stern. And Trump. But very few people on this board do.  They get off on it.

If a candidate for public office doesn't believe the link between cigarette smoking and lung cancer is real, that's going to cause me to doubt his judgement on all issues. sorry, it just is.

 
I hope someone in the townhall asks him what "I moved on her like a #####" means. Never heard a guy say that one before.
I think Trump was comparing himself to one of those male breeding dogs who forcibly mounts a stationary female and mates with it.

I tend to agree with this, but the truth is that most Trump supporters can't be won over with policy discussions. It's unfortunate that modern politics has become all about attack rather than explaining one's own policies. TYpically, the overwhelming majority of attacks target the specific policies of the opponent...and here's where Hillary has a problem, because not only is Trump willing to use personal attacks, but his policies are either non-existent, or stated in simple terms and swallowed so whole-heartedly by Trump supporters that there is no way to succesfully attack those few policies that can actually be identified.

TO put it in more simple terms (for the Trump supporters), she's using Trump's own tactics against him with more success.

Stern isnt running for President.

Liking Stern des not mean saying such things should be done by a candidate for President.

Who was demonized for supporting Romney?  Same with McCain prior to choosing Palin for VP.

Look, if you start supporting a scumbag then people are going to call you out on it.

I have no problem with what you're saying, but it just doesn't fly with me. People on this board using Trump/Stern highlights to disqualify Trump when we know what both Stern as interviewer does and what Trump as candidate doesn't pass the sniff test with me.

Romney was demonized as sexist for his "woman binder." McCain lost because McCain lost. But these charges have been leveled against innocent men and women for a long time because of policy questions, and we now see an authentic misogynist. (No, I'm not afraid to call him that.)

I expect more of a President than saying its fine for someone to say his daughter is a piece of ###.

Was that taken seriously though?  Maybe women did but around here it was a joke.

No, that was a very real thing.  Every media outlet harped on that. Let's not have amnesia in the wake of this. It was supposed to show how out of touch he was with women voters. It certainly wasn't about groping women.  

 
Michael Steele, former chairman of the Republican Party:


This is a devastating blow to the Trump campaign and to the party, and there is not much either can do to salvage it. It almost doesn't matter what Trump does in the next debate.


 
Trump is going to try to turn everything around with an incredible town hall debate performance. It's going to be really awful and it's going to be spectacular.
