I don't want Trump to win, really. But I do think, should it happen, it might turn out to be a good case of losing the battle, winning the war.

Sorry, but Metal Gear Sólid or 24 is not a good point for conspiracies, Bush already fucked up the country twice, republicans have been in talks about rebranding since 2011 and at best the only change is that they agree that rape happens. They took a big blow because of the debate, during the primaries you dont need people seeing you saying crazy shit, thanks to Trump now we know that Carson is a looney and Huckabee wants to see everything burn. Supreme court appointments are also really important. I understand those things and im not even from Usa.

Consider the hundreds of people that dont have your position of priviledge of having easy access to health, think what would happen to them with a republican as president.

 

[YoungHav]

I love Trump. He doesn't even have an intern doing Twitter for him like Hillary or other goons. This is all him, that's somewhat respectable.

 

[catapult37]

implies?

 

[Kusagari]

I really am giving Trump the benefit of the doubt here.

I think he would have made it far more obvious if he was talking about her period. Trump isn't known for being subtle.

You have no idea what you are talking about.

Again, please don't be a voting American. If you are, you should take a couple seconds and think about what would happen if a republican was elected as president.

 

[commish]

Is it?

That everything is sterilized to the tenth level? yes.

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

He was talking about how Fox was basically putting a hit job on him. She had blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of where ever. He basically got lost mid sentence, surprise. He then went on to say the exact same thing about Chris Wallace that he had blood coming out of his eyes. Then goes on to shit on George Will; in context it was hey I'm Trump Imma shit on people. Everyone is trying to pile on, blah blah.

Hilarious that there is an attempt to say that she was on her period.

The GOP never stands for faux outrage, they'll get to the bottom of this.

By the way, Scott Walker didn't imply that gay people were pedos when he said "The gay scout leader ban protected children" you PC-liberal.

 

[dem]

I don't know, after actually listening to the comment I really don't think he was implying she was on her period.

I was scared to post it in this thread.. But I actually agree.

 

[GnawtyDog]

He's the Republican Shakespeare

That's why I don't give two ____ about Trump sabotaging them. His views and ideas have been in one way or another cornerstones of GOP pandering to right wing radicals and no candidates that come from that party have ever drawn a red line or made a true concerted effort to shape their base philosophy differently. Trump is simply plain spoken about this in the worst of ways. The other clowns running are just full of shit in general whether that be on abortion, woman issues, gays & lesbians, immigration etc. Just because they have passed the school of Polical Correctness and learned the ways of Washington bullshitery doesn't mean they don't pander to the same ideas or partially some to rile up the base in their favor and get some votes. I mean, plenty of examples in that debate. The GOP can burn in hell this cycle.

Universal Healthcare is next and we need a Democrat at the helm if we're to have a chance of achieving it. You can bet your behind it's going to be hell on earth to get it. You think republicans care about Obamacare? Hell No. If anything, they're just drawing a red line letting the world know about how far they'll let Democrats go. The misinformation campaign regarding the ACA has been a sight to behold. Just you wait when Democrats talk single-payer....the anti-Obamacare campaign will fall short.

Obama has unleashed a metric shit-ton of changes in his last quarter in office.

If the GOP gets the chair, all the progress gets rolled back. That's not getting ahead, that's having a completely indefensible opinion.

 

[Kusagari]

The thing with Trump is you legitimately have no idea what the fuck he would do if he took office.

The establishment would have zero control over him and I could easily see him doing a complete 180 on various social issues once elected.

He's not going to be elected. He thrives with the GOP base because the extreme of that base is insane. Not enough votes anyway you slice it.

 

[old]

Again, please don't be a voting American. If you are, you should take a couple seconds and think about what would happen if a republican was elected as president.

If a republican wins, it will means a conservative Supreme Court judge replacing outgoing Ginsburg.

OTH, if it means Trump as as president it will be worth it. Seeing him and Putin go at it will be comedy gold.

 

[Atolm]

Too bad those outside the US can't vote. I want this guy as president.

 

[Kusagari]

I know he's not getting elected.

I'm just saying that if he somehow did then he would be a complete wild card.

 

[MagnaderAlpha]

And how many actual lives would he ruin? Sure when bush was in power, some of his bufoony moments were funny, but behind that act was a selfish, calculating person who caused so much damage to the world.

I know it's a joke, but I'm scared people wil vote for him 'for a laugh' when he isn't that nice a person.

I have a problem with people thinking that being "entertaining" is an important aspect of being a president(not people who JUST find him entertaining, but those who think it's a valid reason for him becoming our next president). It's almost like the "reality television" audience, weened on Real World/Road Rules, Laguna Beach/The Hills, Jerry Springer, Survivor, The Bachelor/Bachelorette, Jackass, Keeping up with the Kardashians, Honey Boo Boo, among MANY, many others, have gotten together and gone, "Derp, why watch it when our COUNTRY can BE it?!".

I also hate the excuse people give, "Of course he will be a great leader. He's rich!". Fuckin' insects... There is so much wrong with that logic, it makes me wonder if people TRULY think that... what little shred of respect I have for humanity is being eaten away far faster than I would've hoped.

At least we know there will be a wall.

With a beautiful door.

 

[Kunan]

lol that site is full of shit.

Everything about these pre-primaries so far is damn hilarious.

 

[RumblingRosco]

I'm willing to tank the future of America just to see what happens with Trump in power. He's got my vote!

 

[Rubenov]

You know it's all a load of bullshit anyway. Obama didn't bring change.

Lots of things happened under Obama though.

Economic recovery. Gays in the military. Gay marriage. Cuba re-engagement. Iran nuclear treaty. Healthcare reform.

 

[Michael F. Assbender]

I just feel like he's got no place talking about the workings of someone else's body until he comes to grips with the fact that the top of his head stopped growing follicles years ago.

 

[Oberon]

Are some guys here really suggesting he should be president? "Let's give this racist and sexist guy power just for the lulz"
Yeah, what could possibly go wrong?

 

[GSG Flash]

This makes no sense whatsoever.

Does this sound intelligent to you?

I don't like Hillary, that's all you really need to make sense of.

People are just saying this for attention. Don't give it to them please.

Where did I imply that I'm seeking attention? That's legitimately how I would vote if the two were pitted against each other.

In my opinion, that scenario is a disaster vs disaster vote, so I might as well vote for the disaster that's entertaining.

Now if it was any other Democrat candidate vs Trump or Hillary vs any other Republican, that would be a Hillary/Democrat vote from me no questions asked.

It's a moot point because Trump is not going to win the Republican nomination and I don't think that he will run as a 3rd party either.

That's a terrible opinion to have. You realize real people are affected by these things, right? It's not a fucking TV show. A republican president would work to undo everything Obama has done.

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

Response is gonna be, meh.

 

[GSG Flash]

Well then it's a good thing I can't vote in the States isn't it? I'm sure my viewpoint of this would be different if I was an American citizen, but I'm certainly not alone as a foreigner who finds Trump entertaining.

FWIW, I don't even think Trump's campaign is serious, which is perhaps why I'm not taking him seriously. To me, it just screams publicity stunt.

 

[speculawyer]

Megyn Kelly needs to come back with a Deez Nuts response.

 

[Shig]

Again, please don't be a voting American. If you are, you should take a couple seconds and think about what would happen if a republican was elected as president.

Don't be a voting American that wants to vote for the party you agree with? That seems like a counterproductive plea.

I'm talking in hypotheticals, not advocating for Trump.

But to play the game, I don't think it would be quite the doomsday scenario you're alluding to. I don't think Trump really identifies with conservatives' social ideals nearly as much as he wants them to think he does. And I'm skeptical that even the dyed-in-the-wool Republicans have the backbone to make much movement on their proposed major policy turnarounds. Their MO for awhile now has been criticize, criticize, criticize; Solutions are aired few and far between, they're loathe to actually own any specific counterpoint. Ownership means taking responsibility, and they're scared to death of having that albatross around their neck.

Not that they won't cause some harm, I'm sure they will. Which is why I almost definitely ain't voting for 'em. But the world'll keep spinning, win or lose.

 

[Officerrob]

I love Trump. He doesn't even have an intern doing Twitter for him like Hillary or other goons. This is all him, that's somewhat respectable.

I prefer a person who wants to be president to not be living on twitter being a troll. I mean it's entertaining and all, but he's like a teenager with all the tweeting

 

[rambis]

Yeah im not really seeing it. Blood out the eyes sounds more like some chick in an old horror film.

 

[GnawtyDog]

Well obviously. It doesn't take much to get informed however.

 

[cyberheater]

So the OP is utter bullshit then?

 

[Glass Joe]

LOL I guess I'm a deviant then because I listened to the interview and thought "Oh boy. Did Trump really just respond to a lady that called her a woman hater by saying she must be on the rag?" It was stated as innuendo. At least that was the ... erm ... flow of how he said it, like he was making a punchline.

 

[Officerrob]

So the OP is utter bullshit then?

Yes? No? Maybe? What we know is the Redstate event has rescinded his invitation to their event for the comments, and the RNC and other candidates (I know Huckabee) have called for him to apologize.

 

[komplanen]

Trump is literally the best thing about the US right now. He fits in so perfect.

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

So the OP is utter bullshit then?

Yes.

 

[rambis]

So the OP is utter bullshit then?

Well its not a fake story if thats what you mean. The offended train is in full effect and organizations are already acting against it.
But it does seem like just a bunch of smoke.

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

Yah. If you actually listen to the interview and the small clip you will see that it is bs. You have to be looking for outrage.

Missed the part where you weren't American. We've unfortunately got liberals here in the US that think the same way.

Sure, it wouldn't be a doomsday but anyone identifying as a democrat should want the democrat nominee to win for the supreme court appointment at the very least. This isn't the time to play risky games that have a chance of not working at all. For all we know we might have another 2014 with no voters turning up for midterms.

 

[ISOM]

So the OP is utter bullshit then?

It didn't sound to me like Trump was trying to imply she was on her period. People are overreacting to everything this guy says right now.

 

[Syriel]

Fuck it I'll vote for him. 4 years of comedy gold.

SNL hasn't had this much source material since Bush/Perot.

 

[gogosox82]

Yes.

How is it bs? The quote is accurate. It's really a matter of how you interpret the sentence. "Her...Whatever" could of meant nose or it could have meant something else. I tend to think he was referring elsher nose but got flustered but I could see how someone could have interpreted of that way.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

It didn't sound to me like Trump was trying to imply she was on her period. People are overreacting to everything this guy says right now.

The irony is, he has said much more clearly direct sexist and racist comments in just this campaign run alone.

 

[Zabka]

If you don't think that was a period joke then you don't know Trump

 

[Acerac]

The more unelectable he acts the more I want to vote for him.

Only good things can come from him getting support. I love this lunatic.

 

[ThisGuy]

His track record isn't doing him any favors with this.

 

[quaere]

He could have been referring to her period, he could have not. I'm not sure either way.

One thing I am learning from this whole Trump thing though is I really don't trust any of the media. Right now NY Times is running this story like there is no question he was talking about her period and that is showing their bias toward a specific narrative (and generally against Trump).
