I am a male Irish white American, though I identify as a black male.
Trump is coming closer to getting my vote. Hilary is a dirty and corrupt closet racist who panders to minorities to gain power. Promises upon promises that are never delivered. The Democrats continue to keep minorities under their thumb. It's sickening.

Maybe because he tells it like it is without sugarcoating.
He doesn't tell it like it is. He tells a certain segment of the population exactly what they want to hear.

To be fair, trump reflects public opinion.

So where does the GOP go from here?
Here's an interesting statement and while true, to some degree, represents the arrogance and entitlement of the GOP. It's also an example of how they are going to screw up the election. The liberals are far worse but they are at least quiet about it.

We choose the nominee, not the voters: Senior GOP official

People admire this. Trump: "All I know is what's on the Internet."

Trump winning: GOP is in trouble

Yeah? Well. let them burn. They lost in '08, they lost in '12. and after each loss they vowed to expand the party to include more minorities, women, youth, and what they have managed to do is narrow the party to a so far right religious, anti-immigration posture.

Good luck to ya, been nice knowing you, adios...

Illegal only in the sense that he couldn't find a loophole to employ them...

Please, if your only issue in this campaign is immigration, stay home on election day and let the people that are interested in the economy, infrastructure, environment and ending wars and keeping our country safe from terrorism decide on the best candidate.

Can you name a single thing Don Trump has done in his life that was not all about Don and his brand?
Most people who have run for national office have spent most of their lives in public service, you know where they stand on the issues.
Don is a reality tv show host, he is brilliant at manipulating the media and low information voters.
Does this qualify him to run the most powerful country on earth?

That would make him like all the other candidates and not a reasonable argument against him.
