Hmm let me think about it" "OMG megyn kelly's questions so hard" LMAO you are grade A clown if you even tacitly say "hey Trump supporters are just the silent majority, nbd, they're not PC and stuff". | ||

Literally everyone understands what he wrote, they just don't agree. The war on drugs and the war on terror are not things that Trump will stop. Socialized healthcare and "welfare system". Literally americans are getting healthier but not as healthy as people with better socialized systems. And the economy is doing great, the median buying power has been going up steadily. You're inventing a rhetoric that doesn't exist. I understand that you're tired of being lied to by the government, now you're lying to yourself. I get the anti-establishment sentiment but it's not a reason to drop critical thought altogether. | ||

Mathematically, this was a bad night for Sanders, and a great night for Hillary. She will be the nominee. | ||

That being said, I think Trump's point can be a lot more nuanced than anyone, or any media gives it credit. Shit, I've stayed in one of his resorts before... FUCK. TO BE FAIR, I stayed before he announced his candidacy, do I get a social reprieve? Also, no joke, I've actually heard some one say "I'm glad Trump is running, therefore I know who on my Facebook friends lists are bigots and racists", in real life. LMAO. I had a friend in elementary school that I never saw after 5th grade and she's a trump supporter. I feel sort of sad about that. | ||

I really have no idea why you think Trump cares about any of those things. The only candidate I can think of who even discusses those issues was berated by Trump as an ugly loser multiple times on stage. A religious litmus test for country entry is pretty much as far from stopping the government meddling in our lives as you can get. | ||

"blood coming out of her wherever" What do you want him to say? Pussy? Cunt? "deport all illegals" Fully support this. I'm an immigrant and I want them all out. "temporarily ban all Muslims until we can vet them" Better than letting them in with no background checks. The nice thing about Islam is you can choose not to be Islamic. And when you choose to identify with an ideology that's linked to a modern wave of extremism. It's not a small percentage either. "my critics will have problems when I'm in power" "loosen libel laws" The media is fucking disgusting right now. On both sides too, not just the left. They can say whatever they want, even if it isn't true or tenuously true at best, and get away with it because nobody will care when they come out to apologize. They need to be reined in. "look at her face. are we serious?" Love it. Fiorina's reaction was indeed hilarious. "schlonged" I want my president to use the same words I do, that's another reason to vote for him! "hillary lacks strength and stamina" Whenever I hear Hillary's voice I tend to agree. And she's not running a very energetic campaign outside her existing target demographics. Have you seen her vines? Atrocious. Needs to try harder. Low energy. "it doesn't matter what the media writes as long as you have a hot, young piece of ass" Totally true. If you have a hot guy or girl giving the news (preferably both) then you've got half your viewership finding it hard to turn away from the screen. This is miss america and this is miss universe. I own them, and they're really gonna do a number on me. Can't find this one in context. Please elaborate. "Denounce the KKK? Hmm let me think about it" Had no idea what was going on http://nypost.com/2016/02/29/trump-i-would-have-denounced-kkk-but-cnn-gave-me-a-lousy-earpiece/ "Megyn Kelly's questions so hard" You realize he was toying with her? | ||

Trump is just the GOP version of Bernie, except the only difference is GOP doesn't have a Hillary Clinton to keep him in check. Right but the rest of Sander's platform is viewed as legitimate because it's based on the reality of other countries, whereas the rest of Trump's platform is complete lunacy. And some of you might argue that Sander's policies are lunacy as well because the US can't afford them, but the general direction he wants to go toward is at least tenable. Other much poorer countries are going there and they're thriving and rapidly catching up with the US in economic terms (and have long eclipsed it in other ways). No matter how often people say "trump says it like it is" (despite the fact that many of his statements are complete lies, but different ones from the ones the "normal" politicians say), it's still not realistic. If you're tired of being lied to by politicians, how do you accept one who says he'll build a wall and make mexico pay (lol), or who will prevent muslims from entering the country (lol!!!!!). He's full of shit like everybody else, the difference is he's not politically correct in his bullshit. | ||

"blood coming out of her wherever" (must have just meant nose or ears right? LOL) He meant "wherever." "deport all illegals" There's nothing wrong with that statement except that you politically disagree with it. "temporarily ban all Muslims until we can vet them" (i.e. "hey are you a terrorist? no? okay good") The same with this one. "my critics will have problems when I'm in power" Hot air. "loosen libel laws" Not the president's job, don't worry. "look at her face. are we serious?" (please ignore that my face was so flawed I got plastic surgery and hair surgery, and use spray tans LOL) He's also made fun of Ted Cruz's face. "schlonged" What's the problem? "Hillary lacks strength and stamina" Do you expect him to compliment his main opponent? "It doesn't matter what the media writes as long as you have a hot, young piece of ass" I genuinely wonder whether you were alive in 1991 when he said that. "This is miss america and this is miss universe. I own them, and they're really gonna do a number on me." When they dumped ice on his head for ALS...? "Denounce the KKK? Hmm let me think about it" Maybe, and I'm just spitballing here, the media should stop giving interviews to the KKK just to stir up shit for news stories and bait a candidate. "OMG megyn kelly's questions so hard" Is that a direct quote? LMAO you are grade A clown if you even tacitly say "hey Trump supporters are just the silent majority, nbd, they're not PC and stuff". If they're the loud minority, where have they been all these years, and why can't the rest of the field get more people to vote for them? | ||

Was talking to a black friend of mine, and he had liked this Trump page on facebook. This mutual acquaintance of our came up to him and asked if he really supported Trump with a pretty accusatory tone. He blew it off as "oh I just think Trump is hilarious to watch"; I legit could tell she was like a hairs width away from calling him an Uncle Tom, but then started talking about how great Bernie Sanders was, and why Hillary Clinton was a "cunt". | ||
