Being the filthy socialist Canadian that I am can some explain something to me, can this guy just do what ever he wants because money?
I mean, where is the line drawn?
I would honestly like to see if he can indeed "shoot" someone and get away with it...

He's a master projector.
Is interesting to see that everything he accuses other of being is some sort of reflection on him:
Birther - His current wife real Situation as an Immigrant,
Crooked Hilary - His Shady Business dealing make him Crooked Don.
Lying Ted - This one doesn't need explanation.
Thank you.

Teflon Don keeps getting away with it just because Hilldawg coughed out a mucus ball into a glass of water
The media will blurb this then forget about it the next day to ensure the horserace narrative

Hey, remember when ol' Trump she was gonna give a press conference to clear this one up? Whatever happened to that?

I'm not even shocked anymore, I mean, it's absolutely disgusting but kind of impressive at the same time. This dude is just working the system and those who seek to gain the least from him becoming President are lapping his shit up.
Well least financially, I would honestly be terrified if I was anything but white-Christian.

That should be the takeaway. No more "(liberal commentator) DESTROYS Trump with the coldest ether" stories. None of it works. None of it matters unless some sort of formal indictment comes between now and November.
The lowest he got was a combination of Hillary getting a convention bounce plus the embarrassing episode with the Gold Star family. That's the only scandal or controversy or gaffe or heinous act that pierced his force field. And we've seen a near full recovery from it.
None of this matters because those voting for him don't care, and those not voting for him weren't going to be sitting on the fence about voting for him but for this or that scandal.
God help us if he surpasses the strategically set low expectations for these debates and appears collected enough to convince the remaining right wing voters not thrilled with him to swallow the medicine and pull the lever.
Not until Hilary gets indicted for the Bengazemails is what his supporters may tell you.
Trump thinks every foundation is used as a slush fund.

It's amazing that no scandal can apparently touch Trump. But Hillary gets pneumonia and the media loses their minds.
Fuck this and everybody enabling that bullshit. What is wrong with this country?

Trump is literally a criminal and there are still people that think his personality can be ignored and wont affect his "strong" platform to make america great again.
Some people really choose to be blind so that their sports team can win.
Critical hit

It's our fault tho when the media barely covers this when they would be going head over heels for Clinton doing the same.
Trigger happy Hillary, bad temperament, unhinged!
This isn't a "both sides are the same" issue.
Hell, for her they go nuts for shadows and clouds and just the mere possibility of corruption.
Here, the dots are actually connected. Let's see where the media takes this. *whistles*

The absurdity of out nation today. When a black man is gunned down by police officers everyone is looking for anything to besmudge their character. Both our presidential candidates break or have broken the law in significantly more serious ways (In trumps case seemingly often) and the message we send to the nation is. "Yea but it's not the same when you're a high profile person. You totally can still become president of the most powerful country in the world. No problem."
I really don't know what it would take to make it so someone like Trump would be untenable as a candidate. He'd probably have to come out and say "I'm an atheist" for that to happen.

A highly qualified former first lady, senator, and secretary if state vs an alleged billionare reality star?
Awright. You do you, though.
Short answer: Greed.
The media keeps handling Trump with kid gloves because they desperately want this race to seems like a close one, because a close race equals higher ratings which equals more money.
"Trump smears feces on his face"
Man it sucks we have such terrible candidates
"Trump yells every known racial slur onstage"
I really wish we had better options
"Trump repeatedly slams baby's head in a car door"
The two party system is so stupid

How is this not fraud or some form of tax evasion?
Again, I'll question the intelligence of anyone who thinks that guy isn't going to do the same with public funds if he gets the opportunity.

That's a fine point for The Kree to make.
His basic tactic is to accuse everyone else of doing what he does.
This a million times. Where's the outrage and wall to wall coverage in the press?

40% of the country are unreachable. It'll get plenty of play, though.
Scumbag. This better fucking stick, I want to hear from his mouth multiple times the rationale behind cutting checks from charitable donations for personal matters. Yet I have so little faith in the media at this point to call this guy out, even when it comes to blatantly illegal practices.
