Remember when the 2016 field of Republican presidential candidates was supposed to be so deep and talented? Then why is a reality TV clown beating all of them?
The hard-working staff here at Spoiler Alerts has begun to notice that Donald Trump isnt going away anytime soon in the polls. Which poses a bit of a writing quandary.
There is no denying that Trump stump commentary generates a lot of traffic I mean, just tremendous, quality clicks. But this incoherent gasbag has been blathering on for more than two months now, and theres only so much one man can say about his shtick. Say that he brings out the ugly side of American politics? Done. Comment on his feuds with conservative media? Done. Observe that hes not really a populist, not really? Done. Point out that his bare-bones policy statements make almost no sense whatsoever? Done and done.
Theres only so many ways that I can say that Trump reminds me of nothing so much as that old man at the deli talking to nobody in particular about how the country is going to hell and how it was better in the Mad Men days when you could properly insult minorities and play grab-ass with the secretaries.....

Professor Dan doesn’t live in reality ... he lives, pampered and protected, in academia. He is an intellectual without a clue.
Sore loser.
yes, its certainly “damning” that the only candidate whose slogan is “Make America Great Again” has a political rise.
I am sensing a common tone to today’s anti-Trump rants.
A sense that “Ok guys, this is getting serious, we cannot just dismiss him any more and expect he will go away...”
From the U of Chicago to Tufts Fletcher School (=International politician),
his only apparent "diplomacy" appears to be for Iran, Mexico and N. Korea.
“But this incoherent gasbag has been blathering on for more than two months now,”
Unlike our betters in the punditry, who have been bloviating gasbags for decades.
So a Tufts diploma means that your parents were so dumb they spent thousands of their hard earned (we are charitable there) dollars to send you to be indoctrinated by a bigoted gasbag such as Dresser? A more discerning parent would have had you working at Home Depot until you learned something about life.
Feel the Panic...the more losers who spout this crap come out and expose themselves, the more I like Trump!
Another MSMer with a spinning head spewing pea soup puke out of his mouth..
We pay this guy with our federal grants and loans and other subsidies to colleges like Tufts.
And D Trump speaks it
We kept TRYING to learn governmentese and politicianal loquatiousness .... but in the end .... all we ever wanted was for SOMEONE to speak ENGLISH
I don't think it's any plainer, nor simpler than that
Trump talks our language.
“Feel the Panic...the more losers who spout this crap come out and expose themselves, the more I like Trump!”
Same here at FR!
(In before the militant TDS-ers)
see my #13
Wrong question, stupid. The real question is why Trump resonates with so many voters. Screw the GOP bench. They no longer speak for conservatives...to the point where I can't tell the difference between a Republican and a Liberal Democrat. And until I see a change from the spineless whining that I hear from the "GOP bench", my purse is closed to them. They want some of my money? Find someone who has a pair of stones, is willing to advance conservative values on immigration, spending and taxes, and big gov't. Until then, sit down and shut up.
it was better in the Mad Men days when you could properly insult minorities and play grab-ass with the secretaries.....
It was.
Another Trump endorsement. The more the liberal elites do not like him, the more people do.
Another example of the old saying...
Thems that can...do.
Thems that can’t...teach.
Meanwhile, the Democrat field of candidates consists of Hillary, an old white rich woman, Sanders, an old white socialist guy, and (maybe) Biden, an old white stupid guy.
That's a really diverse group of Democrats.
