Whats funny is the anti-trump forces are using tactics that are exactly like the ones they fear from a Trump presidency.  

I have taken time to reflect on trump and I no longer support him for reasons that he isn't disciplined enough and too thin skinned. He doesn't take time to really learn issues that he could really excel at with his media savvy and skills on the mic.  

Immigration - Ok, we are building the wall and deporting those that are bad( as it should be).   Go more in depth of what you would do for hard working illegals here.. families etc..Huh    He is tone deaf on this and never has a real postion.  He could actually outflank the left here because they don't have a real plan other than pandering for votes.


Economy -  Once again he fails to have a actual plan.  Yes, hes 1000% correct on trade as is Sanders for you on the left out there who will attack that statement.  Trump is a realestate businessman ,but not once has a outlined a infrastructure plan.  You would think this would be his strong suit.   Chance to completely out hustle the dems here and he doesn't do it.



Foreign policy - He's actually improved here and while not popular with neo-con hawks its actually a position he holds consistany. I do wish he'd stop allowing the media to bait him into "nuclear" questions.  

Temperament-  His bold style is appealing and fresh compared to others the GOP have ran in the past.  My issue is he doesn't know when to turn it off.  Attacking the New Mexico Gov was really stupid and ill-advised.  Yes, she stood him up.  She as a republican should have been there at the rally as were the voters .  It wasn't as if this was still the primary season.  Trump shouldn't have attacked her in that way if anything let a surrogate take that jab. The press conference attacking the press was OK because nobody likes the bias propaganda press anyways.  Hes way too thin skinned for me. When I was younger I could be a hothead about things ,but damn as you grow older you become more tamed and pick your battles wisely.  This guy seems as if he never matured past the age 21.


The Trump University -  Its ridiculous and silly for both sides.  The students are equally as guilty here.  Who pays 30k for a seminar on real-estate ?   It takes having money in the first place to start in real estate. Heck take your 30k and go buy a building or shabby house  fix and flip it.  Welcome to real estate 101.   My issue with Trump is what the F did he think he was going to make off this nonsense?   He's probably spent more on defending the lawsuits than he made on it. Foolish and lazy on his part.  If he were serious about the university he should have at least invested a little more effort into it.  Hire some semi-competent instructors, but once again hes  too cheap to do that..... seems like a trend?


I will never support that crook Hillary ,but I will not be casting a vote for Trump either.   Hillary Clinton can be elected and zero would change for all those people with grievances black,white brown or otherwise.

Trump actually does carry serious risks. His ignorance and lack of morality is boundless.

I get some people dislike Clinton. But worst case, she is another term of Obama. And for all the inflated rhetoric about Obama, the US is doing fine. Maybe not as good as it could be, but it's fine. Freaking out over some lesser flaws and following Trump in dismantling all the things that have made countries successful (market economy, diplomatic alliances, democracy, respect for constitutional liberties, etc) is so stupid it boggles the mind.

Voting Trump is some combination of evil and moronic. Unfortunately a lot of people are that way.

You should never just settle on voting for someone such as Crooked Hillary Clinton.    This whole election just sucks either way you look at it.   

I was leaning Trump , but the Trump University did it for me .

Silly American I legitimately feel he will feel entitled to flaunt the law if he becomes President. Many of the ideas he has presented are either unconstitutional or illegal. How will he react when the judicial system tells him no? The evidence up to this point is not reassuring.

I am not anti-Trump for any partisan reason. As I stated elsewhere I had planned to vote against Hillary this year because I want tax reform and entitlement reform. And then the Republicans nominated a candidate that gained popularity due to his bigotry. Calling for all Muslims to be banned or that most illegal immigrants are rapists is bigotry, plain and simple. I'm not a SJW either. Indeed those people have cried wolf so much that they set the stage for an actual racist to get into power. This election season has been sickening. I can't care about taxes at this moment when it looks like America as the tolerant nation we know it may not exist anymore.

On the right, you have folks who will ram through unconstitutional anti-abortion legislation that will cost taxpayers money.  This will be done with the full knowledge that the legislation will be struck down by the SCOTUS.

On the left, you have folks who are OK with not enforcing our immigration policy and nullification verdicts of juries in cases where defendants are guilty.

And we're worried about Donald Trump, who's never been indicted, never accused of a crime, ever.  Yes, he's been civilly sued; what businessman hasn't?

It's time to get real.

Fuzzy once again shows that he's the most reasonable bear around. I just wish Donald Trump would keep focused on issues, rather than continually shooting himself in the foot via unnecessary attacks on people like Judge Curiel. Someone needs to let Trump know that he's got the GOP nomination locked up and that it's a completely new game at this point, with bigger things at stake and larger implications for what he says. He should be keeping the focus on the many flaws of his opponent, Hillary Clinton, and the positions he has taken which have been shown to resonate with voters across the country (the biggies being trade and immigration policies).

Trump already understands that he'll have to deal with certain members of the biased press, people who will spin stories in the most flagrant of ways imaginable. But Trump will at least show up to take questions from those on MSNBC or CNN, which is far more than I can say of Hillary Clinton, who can't seem to be bothered to answer any questions from any news organizations. So will we see an Atlas thread about Democrats acting as Clinton enablers? Why do I doubt it?

Great point ,but I feel Trump gone off the deep end. No joke, in his mind he really can win places like California.
