yannno what, I hope he beats the heck outa the corporations....honestly...he may be arrogant, and he may rub people the wrong way, but again, if America looses, he looses, and I don't think he is the kinda guy who makes promises that he won't keep.

I don't trust any of the politicians....they are all bought and paid for, and if there were not true, this country wouldn't be on the down swing...we'd be doing very well, but we are not....why?

If someone soon, doesn't pull us out of the gutter, and make laws the law....we're done. If you clean up corruption, everything else straightens out....but this country is as corrupt as they come.

Trump is saying things that people want to see happen....

What other candidate was bold enough to say anything against illegals?
Cain, Herman Cain....Hillary doesn't....Jebb doesn't, he married an illegal....Cruz used to talk about it, but doesn't any more, and please folks, correct me if I'm wrong....

and why did Washington, allow our country to get this far gone? Doesn't anyone ever wonder about that?

Why are there so many Muslims in this country in every aspect of our lives, politics, police, congress, senate?????

We sold ourselves down the river....and if something doesn't change soon, we're going to be another Greece.

Default Really? So the quality of worker will magically improve if we raise salaries?

Oh yes it does....they don't give a darn how he feels about illegals and neither do I....the only difference between them and me, is, I don't hire illegals....me thinks Macy's has many subsidaries, that we don't even know about....



no one said he never saw it coming, I'm certain, he knew way before he ran, or announced he ran what the repercussions would be..he is a slick businessman and say what you want about him, he's a whole lot smarter then you are, if you can make a comment like that....
You need to get out more. At least where I live, no one seems to want to do anything close to menial labor. Everything is beneath so many workers, if you can be so generous as to call them that. Lets just stick to the word employee.

Quick quiz. Do you remember "trickle down economics?" It does not work. Removing illegals will make employers more generous with the pay scale? Employers pay the least amount that they feel that they can get away with. It used to be the same with benefits. Benevolence rarely figures into the motives of HR exec's. Companies want the best person for the job at the bast price.

It is simple economics!

On the bright side, he'll no longer have to defend having that clothing line made in China.

Removing illegals won't make the employers hire Americans for a fair wage? Who do you think you are kidding? That makes no sense at all. Of course companies want the best person for the job for the least amount of money but that doesn't give them the right to hire illegal aliens. Illegal aliens are only being hired to increase their profits and they can force them to work harder out of fear of deportation not that they are more hard working naturally or more qualified than an American is. Most coming over our border are the unskilled and uneducated. Best person for the job? Hilarious.
