Everything I hated about my own party all in one candidate called Trump.

[klamath]

Suddenly realized why I dislike Trump so bad. He is everything I was ashamed and didn't like about elements of my own party.

A flip flopper.
A chickenhawk
a croney capitalist
Disgusting attitudes about women
Extreme hatred of Hispanics
Part of the establishment that has led us so wrong
Racist.
Anti free trade.
country club republican
macho man that is really a coward
Slimy slick salesman
inherited wealth rich brat
Support for torture

I just think he is an asshole.

 

[klamath]

I just think he is an asshole.

That too. I never paid attention to his politics just couldn't stand him back from when we were all forced to endure the Ivana /Donald show back in the 80's. Now I find his politics are as disgusting as him personally.

Anti-free market. That's a huge non starter.

Do you believe that our current trading agreements are free trade?

The fact he is in the lead is truly disturbing.

If he wins I will reregister to an independent.

-Because I see no proof of that whatsoever. He has an issue with illegal aliens, regardless of where they come from.
-He made plenty of money on his own.

Also, we don't have free trade now. Nor, will we be able to have it until a whole lot of regulations are done away with.

I wish Rand would start speaking out about these crappy trade deals and the most recent TPP that 'ol Ted promoted right up until the vote.

 

[klamath]

Anti-free market. That's a huge non starter.

Big one to me too. The anti free trade and free market mixed with how he made his money it upchuckable.

Keep Bush on your radar. Trump is going nowhere, although he is doing serious harm to Rand right now. I'm still not convinced Trump is not a Bush place holder.

 

[klamath]

The fact that he is cultivating and using the backlash against Obama's racism into more angry racism for his own gain is beyond your everyday evil.

Trump make bush look like and angel.

 

[hells_unicorn]

Trump make bush look like and angel.

That might be part of what Trump is for. I have to agree with Dianne in part that Trump is probably doing this for somebody in the establishment, though I think he's doing the bidding of the Clintons, not the Bushes, but naturally I'm not 100% on that.

Oh, and I wholly agree with the about 90% of your OP, Trump is a piece of garbage and I find it downright bizarre that so many self-proclaimed conservatives are even entertaining voting for this snake-in-the-grass.

 

[ThePaleoLibertarian]

I'm not a Trump defender, but why is he "racist", exactly? Has leftism infected the liberty movement to the point where it thinks that being against mass immigration is "racism"?

 

[Dianne]

Trump make bush look like and angel.

That may be Trump's entire schtick. That's the point I'm trying to make, Trump is there to make Bush look like an angel.

They were having trouble match fixing Jeb Bush as the nominee. They want to run someone who will lose, but because his unfavorable numbers were too high he was having trouble guaranteeing the nomination and voters were saying they want an outsider so they started pushing Trump as an outsider, and he speaks like a 3rd grader and says what all the low information voters are thinking. You don't need to rig votes to rig an election you just have to run a patsy.

The easiest way to control people is hate, hate is something we all like to do. People don't learn though, the same people that hate Bush now was controlled by Bush's brother because he was selling hatred of brown people from the middle east. People loved to hate those people so much that they would even give up their fourth amendment rights.

Trump loves to hate, he hates unconditionally and people think well at least he hates honestly. People think if he is honest about his hate then he is probably being honest about these other things he says like making America great again. This is what makes me not like Trump because everyone lies, and his trick doesn't fool me.

No? You can think of a better poster child for brattiness? Who? Dubya?

-He made plenty of money on his own.

He'd have done better investing his inheritance in the S&P 500. You must have missed the thread on that.

And if he had just invested in stocks, he wouldn't have had to go to bankruptcy court and screw his creditors four times just to get there.

Also, we don't have free trade now. Nor, will we be able to have it until a whole lot of regulations are done away with.

Is this a good reason to elect someone who doesn't care about the issue, and has admitted to bribing politicians so he doesn't have to compete on a level playing field himself?

When kicking aliens out is your substitute for having any kind of plan at all for actually fixing the economy, yes. Yes it is. And it insults all of America's intelligence, because illegal aliens are three or four percent of the population, and ten times that many are out of work.

I agree with Hells Unicorn that if Trump is there for anyone else it is for the Clintons not the bushes.

I thought that for quite a while. What convinced me otherwise, Trump's bold comments that Hillary should be in prison right now and she was the worst Secretary of State in the history of this country. I always believed Trump was a placeholder for someone. I have to guess it is Bush because of their "mild" ping pong shots at each other. As for Hillary, Trump is hitting pretty hard.
