    ...I agree, Mess...like I've said, Trump is not the problem, neither is Hillary for that matter...the real problem is the people who are gullible to fall for their BS...which it seems is sadly the majority of voters. (see 2008 and 2012 as an example)

    You or I could run on a platform that we're going to give everything away for free.

    ...pretty much, Mess...but most of us in the middle class know that the only way you can give away something for free is to first take it from someone else....and that's exactly what they've been doing.

    Have a family member, says he's gonna go to a Trump rally. I said OK, what will you wear? He said I don't know...what do you think? I replied, go casual.... But wear a brown shirt. He said thanks.

    Headslap....he didn't get it.....this is the Trump base.

    ...^^^the fact that the "brown shirt" reference went completely over his head speaks volumes.

    I think we all probably know someone that drank the koolaid. They act like children with selective hearing, filtering and ignoring everything except the occasional nugget that revs their emotions.

    Trump is basically trolling this country and the mods are just watching until he drives everyone else away.

    Honestly unless I'm missing something I just don't see where the RACIST comments are coming from. Yeah the guy has no filter & says some pretty stupid shit but even someone like John Legend screaming that Trump is being endorsed by the KKK while Hilary escapes clean with her affection for Robin Byrd, I just don't get it.

    Have you watched Trumpods rant against illegals, blacks, etc? We point out the hypocrisy and double standards... But these yahoo's get into a frenzy.

    Look at a Trump rally....it's trailer park equivalent to islamifascists rally in Tehran.

    Guess you missed some of the antics going on in Chicago after that black guy got suckerpunched in NC. Ever since Trump fumbled to distance himself from David Duke, seems to have racheted the agitators both pro and anti.

    His tone and messaging caters to the haters and it's embarrassing.

    He does spit out a great deal of venom & yes he didn't react quicker enough regarding his DENOUNCING of David Duke but that sucker punch (I saw that) had nothing to do with him directly, though I'll admit his reaction could have & should have been a bit tamer. The guy definitely needs to have a lease put on him by someone on his team.

    I'll tell you at this point Cruz & Rubio don't have to say anything negative about Trump because he's cutting his own throat.

    ...^^^Lillie, Trump scares the hell out of me...and the only thing that is more scary is the fact that so many people are buying into his BS.

    ...and btw, WTF is Rubio waiting for?...he's now dropped to 3rd in Florida, his home state...and he's 4th in Ohio with only 5% of and he's 4th in Illinois with only 11%....Jesus tap dancing Christ man, throw in the towel already.
