With all these reality TV celebrities considering runs for president, does anyone else sense the line between the movie Idiocracy and reality blurring?

Because look who we're stuck with now in the White House.

Sounds like you're describing Obama.

Lots of Presidents have had their share of business failures. Ulysses grant lost his shirt in a brokerage firm collapse. Harry Truman had a failed haberdashery business, and almost filed for bankruptcy, though wife Bess's frugality prevented him from doing so. Donald Trump has had his business failures, but he has bounced back. Not all Presidential marriages have been happy either, and many would have most assuredly ended in divorce had it not been an unthinkable scandal back then. Don't even get me started on the "adultery" issue.

Oh no. Are all the extreme conservatives going to rally around this meathead now and attribute any criticism of him to us "fearing" him or "disparaging an ideology"?

Trump's an egomanical opportunitist who cares about nothing but himself and is not very intelligent. He's been that way for many decades now and will continue to be that way, whatever he does politically.

He has bold confidence, a measure of charisma and is a good speaker, and an obvious personal success. But he really must do something about his hair! A big distraction.... I mean, he can't talk about Ron Paul while his hair is combed down like that!!

You are too emotionally attached to the Nanny state of things.

Momma is fixing to kick all the kids out of the house!

As it should be.



BUT YOU KNOW what a Democrat thinking mind, is focused on at this moment in our history? Yeah...ok...


Funny, you just accused me of knowing the thinking mind of a conservative, but then falsely CLAIMED the above. Amazing the two step hypocrisy in this one thread.

I have no idea what this is suppose to mean. Can you try proper grammer please?

Try again
Better read again, this time put your glasses on.
I'll say it again, as you just proved my point.

First off, you have no clue what a Conservative thinking mind, is focused on at this moment in our history.
I don't claim to know what runs through the mind of a Progressive. Who could?

Nice try though.
