Forget Elizabeth Warren. Forget Rand Paul. Forget Marco Rubio. Forget Bernie Sanders.
There's a new sheriff in town and his name is the DONALD.

Congrats DYes, we are in for a special treat this election season. Trump is the man to fix America!!!
Another day, another candidate. Is there a limit on how many people can run from one party? The GOP race is ridiculously crowded.
Again?

I watched. I listened. I laughed. That said, he raised a few valid points, but in a disingenuous way. The moment when he cued the Neil Young song was hilarious, and apparently pissed Neil off. A great caricature of many politicians.
Which I think speaks to the splintering of the GOP. Like the Dems, if the Repubs could jettison some of the ideological floatsome within their ranks they would!! But endorsement-at-large requires that the fringe are utilized to insure the ascension and staying power of certain candidates.
Trump will blow his horn loud and bold [[that's who he is) but not all of it can be dismissed or endorsed, and he's free to say what most candidates will not say for sake of being PC.
Then again there's always the comfort of our front runners: Hillary and eh, 'Jeb!'. For sure their mouths must remain forever closed on certain subjects.
SMH.... My goodness, we almost deserve what we have!

I'll accept that answer.Quote:

Maybe they're right!

Their leadership seams to think "yeah, your going to vote for the Republicans? Take who we give you and like it," which is why I will vote for a third party if Hillary is the nomineeQuote:

If nominated, I shall not run. If elected, I shall not serve.
Wait....didn't someone already say that? :)
Trump is the other white meat. That wasn't meant to be offensive, it's just a play on a commercial advertisement years ago. While Bernie Sanders is sucking all the air out of the room here at DYes, Trump is leading all Republican candidates in polls of conservative voters.
Like Sanders, Trump came out of nowhere and is seen by his supporters as honest and a breath of fresh air, a candidate who tells it like it is. Currently, Trump has a new opponent he must dismantle. Her name is not Hillary Clinton though. Read all about it below.

Face it DYes, if you could build your dream Republican his name would be Donald.
This is the start of the 'Trumpu-ist' Party [[ even the Trumpu-ist or Trumpu-ism) is not a word.
