Donald Trump is now the Republican nominee

Fear, has always been a very powerfull tool in politics and when it comes to gaining votes.
It's not like one side of the political spectrum holds a monopoly on this.

Yeah republicans play off of "The commie-fag-junkies are coming to take your guns" just as much as the left plays off of "The bible-thumping Wall street WASPs are coming to put you in chains." It's equally shrill on both sides. That Trump/Nazi cartoon above is a good example.

Don't get your panties in a bunch guys. Hillary was, is and will be the favorite to win. All this Trump attention, he's a narcissist, and you're all dancing to his fiddle.
 
The problems with The Wall is that the most resourceful drug and people smugglers enter the USA through underground tunnels.

What this wall will do is make more people dig under it and make it even harder to detect smugglers since they are hiding underground. :shrug:

Trump isn't building the wall to keep people out. He plans on building it to keep people in to stop the en-mass immigration of Americans trying to get the fuck out once he becomes President.
 
Funny how Trump drops the "tax increase for the wealthy" bomb after he snabs the Republican nomination. Bet they love that.
 
Seems like he's showing his true identity I guess! Would be funny if he turns out to be the next Stalin or Lenin. While everyone thought he would be the next Hitler. Ha! He trolled us all yet again ...

They said the same shit about George Bush, too. "He'll be the next Hitler!".
 
Well, i just found this:

Never liked Trump.

Isolationist, Xenophobe, general extremist. The exact opposite of the lefty extremist Sanders.

Clintons just shady as fuck.

We got a shit show for candidates.

I always liked Fiorina myself.
 
Dunno why people are even listening to Trump when it comes to stuff like that. He doesn't really distinguish between truth or lie, he just talks and says things that are convenient to him at the moment. It's about the image, not reality. There'll be no wall, but it fits his image of "maker" and "guy knowing what to do".
I don't think he's actively lying, he just habitually talks out of his ass because that's what he does and always did. Actually, I don't think he can lie, because he really just doesn't know the difference or importance anymore.

I always figured that out too. It's why he backpedaled on so many statements. He just says whatever shit he thinks will get him the most attention. He's out to win and nothing else.

But then someone will have to explain to me how, exactly, that makes him any different from all the other american politicians people seem to hate so much.
 
What does it say about the Rupublicans that an outsider with zero background in policitcs can hijack their party so easily. The one good thing to come out of this might be Bernie and Trump igniting the populist base and steering things away from the vested party elites. :monocle:

I'm pretty sure Trump is the product of an intense dissatisfaction towards conservative elites. For 8 years now all they seem to have done is pester Obama at every opportunity while never really advancing a project of their own, beyond the Tea Party loons who want to turn the US into a Christian theocracy or something. The GOP's moderates had all the charisma and presence of a bunch of sleeping lobsters, so Trump styled himself as the guy who's radical enough for some Tea Party followers to like him (in regards to immigration mostly) and moderate enough for more traditional Republicans to want to give him a chance (mostly in terms of economic policy), all the while not being a warmonger or boring.

So really, I can only admit that Trump played his cards pretty well thus far. But I'm not sure if this will be enough to defeat the Clinton political machine. Given historical trends, it should, no party has held the White House for 12 consecutive years since FDR after all. But I think Trump runs the risk of just alienating too many people with his antics and preposterous declarations, whenever he believes them or not.
 
Trumps rise is multi-faceted.

Frustrated members of the GOP that are sick and tired of career politicians, AKA, the establishment. I couldn't believe fellow GOP members would go for a problem ridden, non-reform, money burner that is Obama care. You still have deductibles and co-pays. There is still no transparency from medical providers on what shit costs ($10 dollars for a tiny box of fucking cereal??). What does Obama care cover, not near enough to make it worth while and too expensive overall if it were to fully cover peoples expensive treatments (the help they actually NEED insurance for), like rehabilitation, AIDS, Cancer, Alzheimers, etc. These are not one shot costs but a LIFETIMES worth of money vacuum for some.

Pandering, fear mongering, outright lies, etc, from the left. Yeah we live in a fascist police state that, actually allows us to run our mouths with inane banter like, 'Fuck The Police, or all policemen are SWAT officers'. Other hits include, using buzzwords and memes like, 'I support terrorism because Trumps buildings need to have a few planes crashed into them', or comparing Trumps words to Hitler when Bernie and Hillarys promises and buzzwords are taken straight from Lenins or Robespierres playbook. You know, words like 'wealth-redistribution, forced if necessary', 'Revolutions' (this one used ALOT), 'pie in the sky dreams are just around the corner if you vote ME', 'white people and others do not know how it is to be poor, only blacks', the silliness continues.

As Cimmerian points out, leftists can be some of the biggest fucking hypocrites ever. Can't make fun of blacks and Mexicans but make fun of whites, Asians and others, that's perfectly ok. Amuricans force democracy yet socialism is the end all be all answer to the worlds problems. We cannot discriminate against non-religious folks but those same folks can talk as much shit about religious folks all they want.

As I said, our elections a shit show because EXTREMISTS/DEMOGOGUES from both sides have hijacked it. Both sides resort to more and more insane bullshit, just to outdo the other.
