We're seeing Trump as a hypocrite. All you have to do is see what he was saying just a few years ago.

Yet, another poster in here was saying that if it took more than 140 characters to explain something, you weren't doing it right.

Trump would have fit right in with the Bush/Cheney presidency, where torture (remember Abu Ghraib?) was just a normal part of their abhorrent war policy. Ah, yes, let's all return to the good old days.

The man is an ignorant monster who must be kept miles and miles away from any real power. If there was ever any question of it before--and to intelligent people there wasn't--this should be a sufficient answer.

I'll admit the Republicans had a weak field this time around. But honest to Pete, they could have cut cards and come up with a better candidate.

I call on my fellow Trumpbutts to flood CD with the positively great and huge accomplishments that we are experiencing and sharing in the real world. Such as...

Today, I heard a co-worker remark about how horrible the shooting and bombing was in Instanbul and I quickly reminded her that because of Obama's and Clinton's involvement...Istanbul was Constantinople, Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople. Been a long time gone, Constantinople. Why did Constantinople get the works? That's nobody's business but the Turks.

Go Trump!

Perhaps some of the more coherent folks on this discussion could offer to speak up for Trump at the Republican Convention.

Mike Ditka has declined as have many politicians who are feeling a deep need to stay home and work on constituent issues.

Wonder who will end up on that stage.

Palin, Carson and Christie. Trump will take up the rest of the time telling everyone how great he is. I don't usually watch it but I will be watching this year.
