Trump has that "how the hell are people actually supporting me" look on his face. It's straight out of a movie or something where everyone goes from ignoring the character to taking them seriously. His "am i dreaming?" look is hilarious.

His thought process is probably:
"Did God choose me?"
"Why?"
"Wait.....what if I AM GOD!!!!"
"Yes.....yes."
 
Pure pablum.

Dude thinks because he's sold condos to rich Chinese expats he can bully China and Japan into removing tariffs. Incredible.

TRUMP MATH: "Then you read it's a 5.4% unemployment rate! I mean if you really add it all up, it's probably 40%!"

There's some funny government math putting it at 5.4%. The labor force participation rate is only 62% which is the lowest since the '70s when far fewer women were in the workforce.

40% is a Trump-ism, but he's right when he says that the low number is greatly exaggerated.
 
Economic Plan: Renegotiate trade deals. If foreign companies build in America that's fine. But he doesn't want heavy importation from Japan, Mexico, etc.
Being Too Liberal: I knew Reagan. He was like me. Same thing. Increasing taxes to get rid of national debt is still fine though as debt is a major issue, and he and other rich people would love to do it to help this great country.
 
As a Canadian, I wish I could turn into an American so I could vote for your next President of the United States of America.

And I'd let Trump run Canada too.

LOL I'm still not sure if it would be great or terrible. The potential for both is strong. If it happens, a few years from now, your Canadian politicians might be talking about building a wall...
 
Pretty soon Trump is just going to stand at a podium and recite various racist slurs and feel-good phrases, then sing the national anthem while old white people clap and cheer like idiots.
 
So this is a Men in Black situation, no? Like the Lizards that make up the Republican establishment and their plans to weaken America for the alien invasion are being derailed because the hairpiece that runs Trump was bored and/or has a bet to control the planet if he can beat the lizards?

ALL HAIL EMPEROR TRUMP OF EARTH. It's him, or the lizard people.
 
Whenever I hear someone say that Trump 'tells it like it is', I'm left wondering if they're saying that they think Mexicans are a bunch of rapists and criminals, but don't have the cajones to say it out loud.

Every time someone says something about Trump calling Mexicans a bunch of rapists and criminals, I'm left wondering if they believe he said that, or realize he didn't but find pushing that misinformation beneficial.

Thank you. Something that really needed to be said.

By the way Hannity's panel is really hating on Trump. Fox News employee heads must be exploding in their offices trying to decide what to do.

We got a genuine fan of Trump here. Adorable.

Just not a fan of people intentionally misquoting to cause confusion and conflict. For example, earlier when I wasn't paying much attention, a poster claimed Trump said "laziness is a trait in blacks." No one disputes it so I took it for granted as something he must have said at some point.

I just looked it up wondering why he hadn't been annihilated for this, and that's because it's almost guaranteed not to be true: http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/fusion-misattributes-racist-quote-to-donald-trump/article/2567872

Be completely honest though, that also covers people that are retired, disabled, etc. and is growing because of shifting demographics with baby boomers causing these numbers to inflate.
 
LOL, if Trump speaks like this to anyone as president, I can imagine so many international ties and relationships going dry.

I don't even know how people do business with him tbh. He sounds like an egotistical, ignorant, pathologically lying, tactless, arrogant narcissist. It's really quite amusing so many genuinely support him, just because he's outspoken and doesn't give a shit.
 
This is the guy you deserve, 'Muricans, a dumb asshole with initiative.

Become the laughing stock of the World. You are half way there already!

I'm sorry, illegal immigrants. And all their kind south of the border coming from all over. I'll just post his dogwhistles instead of what he's saying, translated sans dogwhistles. Spare me the bullshit.

The labor force is our working-age population. 16-64. Early retirement would contribute, but so would forced early retirement. I'm also not sure disabled people and full-time students are considered part of the "labor force," but I'm sure someone can correct me.

Not to be a stickler, but "illegal immigrants" is also incorrect when talking about his "rapists and criminals" quote. That was specific to "Mexico is sending." So what you said and what he really said is substantially different.

I'll spare you from further bullshit. And whatever you're talking about with dogwhistles?

Abstract language meant to get a reaction from the republican base rather than directly saying what he means.

Straight from the horses mouth:
Lee Atwater said:
You start out in 1954 by saying, “Nigger, nigger, nigger.” By 1968 you can’t say “nigger”—that hurts you, backfires. So you say stuff like, uh, forced busing, states’ rights, and all that stuff, and you’re getting so abstract. Now, you’re talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you’re talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is, blacks get hurt worse than whites.… “We want to cut this,” is much more abstract than even the busing thing, uh, and a hell of a lot more abstract than “Nigger, nigger.”

Or maybe it's just a character he plays for TV, but in actual boardroom negotiations and business dealings, he's smart, reasonable, knowledgeable and has been very successful because of that.

“When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

I'm sorry, you're right. He's not saying illegal immigrants, he's saying all migrants. How great on him. He's making no distinction here and only does it later on in his little manifesto at the end to cover his ass. Because he knows how to draw in the racist crowd.

More quotes:

"Likewise, tremendous infectious disease is pouring across the border. The United States has become a dumping ground for Mexico and, in fact, for many other parts of the world."

Mexicans are also dirty and diseased

"They’re sending us not the right people. It’s coming from more than Mexico. It’s coming from all over South and Latin America, and it’s coming probably from the Middle East. But we don’t know. Because we have no protection and we have no competence, we don’t know what’s happening. And it’s got to stop and it’s got to stop fast.”

And then we have the PR-talk for people that are actually offended by his words towards the end.

"On the other hand, many fabulous people come in from Mexico and our country is better for it. But these people are here legally, and are severely hurt by those coming in illegally. I am proud to say that I know many hard working Mexicans—many of them are working for and with me…and, just like our country, my organization is better for it."

The brown man's version of 'I have black friends'.

Yep, Trump is totally not dog-whistling. Not at all. Hispanics all over America have no right to be furious with him. Uh huh.

Like I said. Go peddle the idea that Trump isn't drumming up anti-Hispanic sentiment somewhere else.
