Yeah, but he's good at it, isn't he? He's got every issue covered from every angle.
I'd hardly say he has got all the issues "covered" seeing as he's yet to prescribe substantive, detailed solutions to the problems he's outlined.
He's good at pointing out the issues and getting people fired up about them, that's about it. Which would in turn be a good thing if he steps aside and let's a real candidate make the run, but he's all ego, so I don't see him doing that.
I think he's the kind of guy that would run as an independent for spite if he doesn't wind up with the nomination. If he can't run as a Republican in the general, he'll make sure he keeps his name out there, the cost it would have to the party and ultimately the country, be damned.

I think you're right. The guy that just quit his campaign (Roger Stone?) can't remember his name. Anyhoo, he said he thought Donald could do the job BUT that his meglomania and his 'peevishness' are his greatest downfalls. (Think twitter war over Megyn Kelly)
He can't put his stand on issues on his website because he makes them up on the fly and they are subject change with the wind. He's a Cult of Personality and not actual substance.
I think he will hold his agenda for as long as he can. If his numbers drop then he will come up with something. Like someone else said he wants to please everyone, the conservatives, the tea party, moderates, probably even democrats. He doesn't sound consistent, he's wishy washy on many issues. All he wants to do is win.
The only promises he has made are quite unreaslic. He is not gonna build no wall or make China do anything.
The main problem is he hasn't said anything about Citizens United and campaign finance reform as far as I know. Legalized bribery means buying the government and further favors to increase the wealth of the richest.

None of the GOP candidates have mentioned the Citizens United decision. At least Trump brought the political system to attention. At least he didn't go to the Koch Brothers in hopes to get a taste of their milk. Even Cruz went to Koch Brothers in hopes for their money.
I love that Trump has brought a lot of awareness on key issues. Even if you don't agree with anything he says, he has been a gift to politics in my opinion anyways. Mark Cuban mentioned this as well. It's nice to see the political establishment shaken up.
Anyways, it raises a big red flag that Donald Trump doesn't have an issues section on his website. All politicians have an issues section where you can see their position on key issues and also their plans on what they will do (claim they will do) to bring change.
Do we think we will ever see an issues section where we can ready details about each of his positions on key issues?
Issues, position papers, 12 point plans. We have seen them all. If the candidate doesn’t have a vision or doesn’t believe in what he says none of those matters. Romney had an “issues” section, Where did it get him? If somebody says I want the Keystone pipleline built I am not going to ask him where he is getting the pipes from, who the welders are and how he is going to cross the rivers. He will have it built. End of story. Those who are in this business will figure it out. Besides, in the Hannity interview he said more than all 16 others combined.
Because Mr. Trump's college and high school interns don't get back until after Labor Day.
