News Donald Trump's Popularity To Date

[hodge]

Russ, I am too overwhelmed to address all your issues. But I can say this: Putin showing disdain for Obama is a sign that Obama's doing something right! I am much more disturbed that Putin likes Trump -- and that Trump likes Putin. As any American should be. Putin is a dictator. Trump wants to be a dictator. That is unequivocally anti-American last time I checked. It may serve us all well to reread the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution I posted earlier.

Trump is a narcissist and a liar. There's plenty of evidence on news sites online. If I get thread banned for this, so be it. I just cannot handle hearing how Trump is our savior. He is a f*cking dictator in the making. We are all screwed if he ever, God forbid, ever got elected. If you want to live in a dictatorship, there are plenty of other countries you can live in.

Russ from what I researched today I think you are persuading me very well. I see what I was blind to before. I think that by taking the blinders off of my eyes I have heard some very credible people today fed up with the status quo. Thank you for the courage to stand up and share what you believe. I am still not sure I have a lot more researching to do but I think everything you have said so far makes so much common sense. Hope is a dangerous thing. It motivates people to action.

Potential POTUS Trump first priorities: Don't you feel safer?

Report: Donald Trump to start Super Pac to derail Ted Cruz's, John Kasich's careers
According to a report from Bloomberg Politics, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump plans to fund Super Pacs dedicated to ending Texas senator Ted Cruz’s and Ohio governor John Kasich’s political careers as retribution for their joint refusal to endorse his candidacy at this week’s Republican national convention.

Citing a source close to Trump, the report says that Trump is willing to spend as much as $20 million of his personal fortune to ensure that neither candidate ever wins elected office again.

@RussH there are people who think my biological brother can walk on water and my mother was a saint. A fair number of them. And, 6 years after his death, my ex is still mourned on a forum he frequented. They were all wonderful people, as long as you served their purposes. If you crossed them, watch out. They have/had a lot of charisma and know how to play people. But they lack the ability to understand that others are as important as they are. A narcissist can be a great humanitarian and do a lot of good. It's just the motive behind it that's off. Like I said, I'm not 100% sure about Trump, but I see things that worry me. That and the fact that my T keeps saying I give people too much benefit of the doubt and too much credit. LOL

I am beginning to have many unanswered questions and I think that everyone has a bias and I think that I will research what you reported @Changeling before I go any further.

I really don't think he needs to do anything. I think they damaged their careers, at least on a national scale, pretty significant all by themselves.

Personally I don't think Texans will stand for it and believe me, there is a WHOLE LOT of $$$$ in Texas. I don't know what Ohioans (is that right?) will think of it or do... but I think I know what Texas will do plus I already sent a donation to his campaign for Senate.

@hodge you and I can decide to agree to disagree, and remain friends.

I would love to remain friends with you, Russ, my fellow Michiganian. I am just having a really hard time these days with anyone who defends Trump. I truly believe he is the worst threat to our democracy in our history. I know I've said many times on this forum that I believe PTSD is thicker than politics. I am struggling to hold onto that. But I am so scared shitless of Trump that I'm having a really hard time holding onto that now.

Trump triggers me, big time. Not only about how he talks about Ivanka, but his vision for the U.S. It's nothing more than a vision of the U.S. for whatever Trump can get out of it and nothing for the rest of us. Believe him at your own risk. I feel like I'm trying to talk to women who've been abused and do not want to accept the fact that their abusers are indeed abusers. One example: look at how he praised the Brexit vote only because it would benefit his golf course in Scotland. That's just one small example out of so many. I wish I had the mental capabilities to do an all out research effort and proofing here, but I don't anymore. It's all out there, guys. For all of us to see, if we only had eyes to see.

And I believe this about Hilary
