He's only picked on because he's the one everyone is most afraid of. If these other candidates could get their carp together and offer something that the American people want and can stand behind - the Donald would fade away - but no one else is attracting and listening to the people like Trump and Sanders.
^^^That! Now, if he were giving a speech to the same crowd of people every time but even that isn't the case. I don't understand what else people would want to discuss. What he got for Christmas? Where he plans to vacation this year?

Nope. Trump started it when he said she got schlonged. Which is kind of genius on his part because HE started the whole ball rolling and somehow blamed HER for getting the whole b all rolling - which then gives him the right to 'go after her'.

Which, is really, all he knows how to do anyway. He certain can't speak intelligently on the issues but his is fabulous at trash talking ALL other candidates. Really, his strong point.

For many attending Trump's rallies, it may be the first time they've heard him speak publicly. So what - he repeats pretty much the same stump speech every rally. So do all the other candidates. Just because you've heard it before doesn't mean others haven't.

No WAY did the audience look bored. They were the most vocal and enthusiastic I've seen in a while. And while I DO listen to every one of his rallies, I'm not bored at all. Here's the link to his entire speech for anyone interested.

Donald Trump isn't just a clown, he's the entire circus.
Is that a transcript of an actual speech? Good grief. Sarah Palin word salad made more sense. THIS is who 30 some percent of Republicans think should lead the country? How depressing.

He does ramble on. For some reason though, I enjoy watching him. Versus Obama, who is supposedly this Great Speaker, but I think he's a total yawn.

Which candidate, that you hold to the same standard, do you think will do a better job?

Yeah, I could see how someone talking about things of actual substance would be a total yawn when word salad is more to your taste.

A lot of things Trump does appear off handed and spontaneous but they are in fact calculated. There is a saying in Marketing that you have to see an ad at least 7 times before you buy. It is his incessant repetition that puts his ideas on the front page. He even uses exact same words. It is not an accident.

After reading that gobbledygook, virtually anyone who could actually string words into a coherent sentence would be a better choice.

Trump needs to be listened to not read. If you want polished, prepared speeches the smorgasbord is long and wide. We don't want that.
