TRUMP!

[rothdawg]

This pretty much sums up the Trump candidacy: "I don't even wanna talk about that question. It's a very serious question."

I'm just in it for the laughs!

I think he takes it to a whole new level. But, yeah, they all play the same game for the most part.

I agree that he does take it to a new level. That's why I am enjoying him in this race - he's such a caricature and I honestly think he knows it.

This article seem apropos to your point though.

Other than "under no circumstances" - which no candidate is going to say - none of those answers had any substances. Just a useless gotcha question.

I read his Meet The Press transcript. It appeared to me that the interviewer was the one avoiding substance. He spent a quarter of the interview asking about Planned Parenthood.

Trump may be the least comical of any of the candidates. He actually tries to honestly answer questions. It's a refreshing change.

I'm a registered Independent so at this point it doesn't matter if I support him or not. PA doesn't have an open primary.

The Republicans nurtured the know-nothings. Now they're getting what they asked for.

He's not glib. But most of those points make sense or are at least accurate.

You don't think Carl Icahn can negotiate?

[McCarthy12]

Maybe substance wasn't the best word choice. On way too many issues he simply offers no opinion. All the candidates do it to some extent, but for a different reason: they're f trying too hard not to offend anyone or make a mistake. With Trump, I think it's different because he doesn't care who he offends. I believe it points more to his lack of understanding of many of the fundamental issues that the leader of the free world is going to need to have some grasp on. Particularly international issues.

I find Bernie Sanders refreshing. I find Trump to be mostly ignorant. Just my opinion.

[Maniac]

Particularly international issues.

Trump probably has more international experience than the other GOP candidates combined. He does business internationally at the highest levels.

Here's an interesting article. ..

Sure, he has international business experience. I'm not sure that translates to diplomacy and foreign relations on a political/governance level. It could, I'm certainly not an expert. I do agree with that piece though - unless he does something incredibly stupid, I think he is here to stay. Given the dismal state of the American politician, it makes some sense to me.

Good point. More than Hillary, too

Hillary has Bill.

When this race gets serious, we're gonna see a whole lot of him and it's going to comfort the left-leaning and independent voters that are getting antsy over Hillary right now.

And I think it's going to be especially effective if the GOP is still trotting out this circus show.

International experience? Breitbart?

So I see you've graduated to sniffing toluene. Good stuff.

[Riccardo]

I doubt Bill is going to help her credibility issue

She's imploding at the moment.

[Overbrook]

Your doubts are terribly unfounded.

She's imploding at the moment.

Maybe you fell off that bicycle one too many times.

No, not more than a Secretary of State. Just those rube GOPers.

[Riccardo]

You really think Bill will help? Seriously?

Wow. Perhaps with the left base, but that's in the bag already.
