People like this need to realize that just because they hate Trump...it does not mean that the majority of Americans hate him.

To the contrary, most people I know like his direct speech and the way he is dancing circles around the MSM and the establishment.

Much the same can be said for Cruz, with one major exception...and it is major.

Trump has a much higher chance of a broader coalition. I have seen interviews of Latinos, Blacks, and democrats who voted for Obama but who now feel betrayed are willing to vote for Trump.

Trump has the capability of putting states like New York in play...which we have not really seen since the 1980 and 1984 Regan victories.

Hate; an interesting choice of words. I can’t think of anyone I hate, even Muslim terrorists and murderers, BLM thugs or the Hilda-beast or Billy-Boy Ayers. Mind you, I would not mourn their passing, some I’d be inclined to celebrate. Some people just NEED killing.

I do hate WHAT THEY DO, though.

Trump will have a chance to show people how he will do in public office. So there is a lot of upside.

Swillery has already shown that side of her; and there is zzzzzzero for us to learn about her that is new.

Actually, it's looking like the majority of Americans DO NOT VIEW him FAVORABLY. We should not confuse the true believes ( those who Trump said will vote for him even if he shot someone live on a busy main street ) with the others.



The one saving grace for Trump is this -- the true believers WILL turn out in FORCE. Those who dislike him are not motivated enough to vote against him.

....Yet look at the rallies that the Donald has been holding, bringing in crowds of people. The other GOP candidates, although Sen. Cruz has gotten better in attracting greater interest, does not attract the crowds that the Donald attracts.

Who are these people?

Trump answered the question...

I don’t know this for a fact but I suspect it’s possible General Patton may have been a true bastard to be around. He was vulgar and bullish and pushy. He had to repeat his first year at West Point. Patton believed in reincarnation.

GEE - the ‘perfects’ here would have hated him.

But he made a hell of a General and I’m glad he was on our team.

That’s how I feel about Trump. He is being elected to do a JOB. Not be warm, fuzzy or make friends.

“but she’s not the living incarnation of evil or anything.”

Huh? Like HELL, she’s not! She gets her marching orders from Lucifer!

You need to fix that graphic. It's missing the first part which says 'They say....'.

“Trump has the capability of putting states like New York in play...which we have not really seen since the 1980 and 1984 Regan victories.”

I reluctantly agree with everything that you have said. I keep forgetting that Trump is, after all, a friggin’, yankee, female dog.

"Donald Trump has the highest unfavorability rating (60 percent) of any presidential candidate since the polling firm started tracking the figure in 1992."

I’ve spent the last 8 years in this boat.

Who cares if Trump is likeable or not?
Who cares if he appoints obnoxious people? (We already had our share with Rahm Emmanuel for example)

All I care about is: Can he get things done? I believe he will

You can dislike somebody and still think they are the best person for the job.

The boss you liked the least is likely the one who taught you the most.

Your favorite football coach is more than likely an a-hole.

etc.

Look at Churchill. Drank like a fish, responsible for the disaster at Gallipoli, many speculate he was an atheist, he could be loutish at times, but thank God he was there when Britain needed him.
