8 reasons we need to start preparing for President Trump

A few months ago, Hillary Clinton's campaign was salivating over the chance to take on Donald Trump -- but the real estate mogul is now positioned not only to win the GOP nomination, but also the White House. The master campaigner has defied uncharitable predictions, danced circles around the press, and outfoxed his Republican rivals to keep them from forging a unified plan to stop him. Here are eight reasons why Trump is actually the Democrats' most potent foe.

Trump has been the driving force behind record-setting Republican turnout, while Democratic turnout has been flat. The GOP has set turnout records in every state, except for Vermont.

In Alabama alone, nearly 200,000 more Republicans voted on Super Tuesday than in 2008. "What Trump is doing is he's able to attract more voters to turn out," said Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC), who backs Marco Rubio.

Hillary and Bill Clinton are ripe targets for Trump, who has revealed an uncanny ability to shred his opponents by brutally defining them. He blew apart former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush as "low-energy" and helped explode Ben Carson's feel-good biography....

Our anti-constitutionalist President will be better than your anti-constitutionalist President.

"You love Hillary that much, eh?"

And this, my FRiends, is what passes for civilized and intelligent discourse among Conservatives in our day.

You don’t have to support him, just vote for him. He doesn’t need your money.

I may be buying a used Class A motorhome in Arizona, i believe it will be a boomtown along the border, with my 20 years driving a concrete mixer and other skills i want to get a jump on the Wall.

Oh yes, it will be built.

Possibly you can find it in your good conscience to support Ameicans that are desperately trying to save their towns from turning into Juarez. If not, it’s your call.

Seems reasonable to me. The duality has become inescapable.

That is Trump's support in a brilliant nutshell.

Who cares what he really is saying he stands for but he sure as heck is the first one on the republican side to give as good as the dems have been giving out for decades....and that is exciting. It is what happens when he is in power having ridden that true anger and everyone voting for him figures out he is not really conservative.
