He sure tells it like it is. I do realize they all promise lots of things before they get elected. Im not a republican but I may vote for him.

im so fed up with all this political correctness crap its good to have someone voiceing thier opinion against it. he may not be perfect buts he not a liberal loon either.

Right now Trump has numbers because he's poking the Establishment bear with a sharp stick, and people are enjoying it. Eventually when they realize he doesn't have the skills for the job, there will be a more serious candidate search.

What Trump DOES do however, is he forces the conversation that needs to be had on issues like immigration, Planned Parenthood, the care of veterans, the economy, and how people just like him 'game' the system to their advantage.

People have been of the opinion for decades now that Washington is inhabited and run by corrupt party hacks who vote by block as directed, and don't vote their conscience or for what is best for the country.

People are tired of wasteful, partisan government which attaches riders to bills costing millions more than estimated, and do nothing to get the middle class employed and stoking the American economic engine.

People want meaningful change, and if that means electing a guy who says during a State of the Union address "Congress, you're fired!" well then so be it. The unlikely choice isn't always the impossible choice.

Who would have thought an actor (Reagan) or a newspaper publisher(Harding) could have been president? The vast majority of U.S. presidents have been either soldier, lawyers, or farmers. There has never been a true industrialist/developer/builder as president.

Hmmmmmm.

Buy hey, if I had a basket of rotten fruit, I'd be talking about somebody elses basket also...hoping to God no one notices the flies buzzing around mine

;t is a lot more, that all this ^^^^ He says what he means, he means what he says. He says what Americans, really think & want.
No one else has.
We are sick of The Criminal Dynasty Families & Political Correctness.
Americans want someone who will tell people, (groups & countries)
" I don't care what you think ",
" I don't care if you offended, give over it or get out"
" I am not kissing your a@@", &
" I don't care if that criminal, trouble maker, media wh@re, Sharpton (or JayZ, or the golf course or whomever), is waiting.. I have important sh@t to do & worry about"

Don't think that he will win the nomination. And I think he would be a lousy president as far as the working man is concerned. But he is a hoot to listen to. Go Donald.

Trump does a total disservice to stand up comics everywhere.

Wilson, college president. Bush # 1 Oil Tycoon, Bush #2 failed business man. Most of our presidents have been professional politicians, which is to say "sales and marketing" people.

Let me clean this up since I was remiss in doing so the first time and part of my post got removed. My apologies mods.
What I meant to say was, to the OP, that Im surprised that our great, knowledgable and friendly liberals and democrats hadnt posted about the Donalds hair or other great points as of yet. And I went on to explain that I understand how easy it is to make fun of the other side when the their side is made up of a self professed socialist, a woman who KEEPS having classified emails show up on her private server, and Mr Double Barrel himself, Shotgun Joey B.

i keep hearing he's not Qualified, doesn't have the skills, things of this nature...

so what are the skills needed? what makes someone Qualified? i probably won't vote for him, just for the fact he hasn't been in the Military, i don't think someone should be in charge of it thats never been been in it...

I think in any job,, understanding the job is one of the qualifications,,lol

coming to the interview and just spouting off all the stuff you believe you an do or want the company to do , ,doesnt get the job

know the role of the job, the authority that is and isnt there, the resources that are and arent available,,,,,

thats a good start,,,

Very true. I remember when the same was said about Obama before he was elected. He too had no military experience, and very little political experience. I know many people from different countries who believed Americans were foolish to vote Obama, for he knew little about the job.

I have a suspicion that Trump may prove himself worthy in picking his cabinet though. Could make a huge difference. I like what he says, but I'm still not ready to trust him yet. Actions speak louder than words.

believing one 'knows' little and knowing they have no 'exoerience in' are two different things

whatever people may have BELIEVED him to know, they could verify he had a long career in the POLItical field/industry,, whatever,,,

Another Ross Perot. Where's his flip chart?

so who would have those qualifications for leading a country? seems that only people that have never done it before can be president, people that have experience can't be president...

so it seems it's a shot in the dark no matter who it is...

no, its not about the position its about the BUSINESS

so, when I go to Wendys, Im not starting out as the CEO, unless I have held a CEO position somewhere else or I happen to be born into the family that built the company (hint hint)




you dont START out at the top of the political chain with NO EXPERIENCE IN THE POLITICAL field


no exposure to the chain of authority, the roles, and how they work together, etc,,,etc,,etc,,,

well, personally, i wouldn't want someone nowadays with a lot of political experience in office... thats what got us into this mess to begin with...

the last two presidents have proved that to me...

I think whatever 'mess' we are in is traceable to big money and big corporations and big egos

and Trump is a leading rep for all three,, from my p o v

true, but the politicians let that happen... corporations can't change laws/regulations without political help...
