Well, it's going down in flames anyways when the debt bomb explodes. It's just a matter of time. Tick, tock.

Haha, If I was president I'd axe most of the federal government.

Nah....they're gonna tell us that we need to merge with Canada and Mexico and all will be well. A smart wolf doesn't show his teeth if he wants in your house.

Re: Desdichado and WoundedWarrior

Your analogy is weak. There is a wide gulf between correcting the actions of a son and deciding who should be President of the world's superpower.
Notice that you ignored the contextual term of my point, that being the term 'guilt trip'.

More relevant to my point though is that two years is an extremely short amount of time.
Eh, an extremely short period of time would be somewhere around 3 months, not two years. Two years, I believe, is an adequate amount of time needed for one who is bad to become good, and one who is good to become bad. Persons may change in such a period of time.

I support Trump and I'm not scared to admit it. I'm done with career politicians. And I'm fine with whoever wins as long as it's not a career politician. At least I know he doesn't have a hidden agenda. And Trump commented that he didn't refer to any menstrual cycle in his comment. A lot of people assumed it, but that's not what he was implying. And he said (and I agree) that anyone who thinks thats what he meant is a sick deviant. As far as attacking his business success, it's far more than all of us put together, and quite frankly most of the candidates.

He doesn't need the money, he has turn around experience, he has building experience, he has the resources, and most of all he has the drive to actually turn America around. I'm tired of politicians with hidden agendas. If you think you're doing a good thing by sitting in here nitpicking everything he's done than fine. But at least he's willing to put his money, time, and energy where his mouth is. As a result of his candidacy I've seen things like the NAFTA treaty being addressed which quite frankly hasn't been. It's always been polite talking points that do very little.

At least he's willing to stand up. I might not agree with everything, but I can support a man who's willing to fight for our country which is more than I can say for most of the candidates.

But, I'll support any one who's not a career politician at this stage in the game. And especially not Bush or Clinton I've seen the result of their presidency and it's a lot of nothing. And quite frankly I think they have hidden agendas which are not in our best interest. It's not that these people don't know what to do. It's that they don't want to do it. The sooner people wake up to that fact the better our country and our children's future will be.

well i have pretty much no respect for trump or his supporters and i am likewise not scared to say so...

trump is -worse- than a career politician...he is one of the major -corrupters- of all of those career politicians...the washington establishment may be broken but it is -people like trump- who broke it...

oh and anyone who buys trump's laughable excuse for his sickening comment about megyn kelly is just plain gullible...but then it was already clear that trump's supporters were gullible given that they actually believe he is a conservative in spite of his easily verified history of left wing politics...

trump has experience -bankrupting- things...and then walking off with most of the money while the people who worked under his mismanagement get nothing...

so far trump hasn't actually shown any willingness to fight for our country...he has only shown a willingness to -talk- about fighting for our country...

As far as your fear campaign of saying people who support Trump will give the democratics the election is also not going over well with me. It these type of things that make people scared to challenge the status quo and could end up God forbid with another Bush in office. Which is exactly what the "establishment" wants. So let's not advance their agenda.
And regardless of how badly you want him to look bad his results speak for themselves there's a reason why he's winning in the polls. It's because he knows what he's doing.
the only polls trump is 'winning' are the republican primary polls...which he is only 'winning' by taking about 20% of the vote...while -the other 80%- that don't support him are split sixteen ways...

and the concern that nominating trump would mean the easiest victory the democrats have won in years is well founded...just about all of the polls show trump losing to clinton and even sanders by double digits...none of the other candidates perform as poorly as trump in general election polls...

and if you are concerned about another bush in office...you should be concerned about the fact that trump is leeching votes from the legitimate conservative alternatives who are running...trump is the main reason that bush is outpolling all of these other candidates...

Yes, but how often does that really happen and is it wise to bet the future of the nation and the world on it?

The last thing that this country needs is Donald Trump in charge of the US nuclear weapons arsenal.

The Bush and Clinton brands have given us this "super performing" economy. They are burnt toast.

After the next debate, any candidate with less than 5% in the follow on pools should drop out.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I don't believe that there is a red button that any president can just push on a whim and suddenly there are nuclear missiles flying thru the air. I would think it's more like an Austin Powers film where the president and one of his henchmen have to simultaneously open a cover and flip a switch while reciting a secret nursery rhyme or something to that effect.

I'll leave my comment as is, and make no further comment on the subject.

Haha, If I was president I'd axe most of the federal government.

Federal Reserve - gone. (The first to go even though not actually a federal dept, they just put Federal in the name to confuse people.)
EPA - gone. This is a front to socialize land and stop us from growing nationally.
IRS - gone.
NAFTA - gone.
GMOs - gone.
FDA - gone.
All tax breaks that companies use to outsource - gone.
All red tape that stops companies from being able to manufacture locally (and not internationally) - gone.
Tax breaks for manufacturing and distribution companies here nationally - established.
ISIS - full on assault. Jesus protected people, we should too. Every day they grow bigger and bolder.

Then I'd hire TRUMP to renegotiate our deals with Iran, Mexico, and China. So we can compete globally with our newly established manufacturing and distribution so our exports are higher than our imports.

There's a few more things I'd do, but that would get us on the right track, IMO.

Re: Desdichado and WoundedWarrior

Read the entirety of post #202, and you'll find that I asked him to provide evidence for Trump's wrongdoings. This reveals that I am open-minded; that I'm willing to alter my mindsets based on presented evidence.

In post #201, Viliigant_Warrior mentioned two incidents defaming Trump's character. However, he did not provide evidence (links leading to any necessary videos or articles) for his assertions. Thus, I registered his comments as originating from a condescending attitude.
Ok, goodie -- I understand. Thanks for showing you're open to conversation. :)

I wasn't on here most of the weekend, so I didn't know you wanted "proof" for assertions that were major news stories for weeks several years ago. However, if you want them ...

Fourth Time's A Charm: How Donald Trump Made Bankruptcy Work For Him

Schneiderman’s suit against Trump headed to court

(New York Post, April 22, 2015) --All of Donald Trump’s bluster about weak evidence and political opportunism wasn’t enough to keep him out of court over claims that he’s running a fly-by-night real-estate school.

A Manhattan Supreme Court judge ruled Tuesday that the mogul’s bitter battle with state Attorney General Eric Schneiderman over Trump University must be decided at trial.

I think you do have a certain grasp of the situation.

"Therefore consider the members of your earthly body as dead to immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed which amounts to idolatry." -Colossians 3:5

The verse is not condemning a wise business person who conducts legitimate enterprise in a godly manner as a good steward with respect to the gifts and resources under their care but rather the covetous heart which displaces God as the Lord of their life for the pursuit of riches (e.g. idolatry). In the original Greek; covetousness, avarice, aggression, desire for advantage over and at the expense of others is implied.


Because there's still money to be stolen...ir, i mean made.

Just because people don't agree with you doesn't mean they are deceived.

I am going to do us both a favor and not reply to anything else you post to me. I don't appreciate your attitude.
