The topic on the thread is Trump's over-the-top lying. If Trump can win the nomination by his Alinsky-style tactics, I'm afraid that we are doomed as a nation.

Trump has scarcely more integrity than the Socialist Dems. The fact that Trump is dramatically nationalistic is not enough to offset that awful negative.

(BTW, although current polls suggest that Trump is the Republican who is least likely to be able to defeat Hillary, I happen to think almost anyone on our side ought to be able to beat her.

OTOH, I do know a scenario in which we could lose the general election: If Trump is nominated, many Christians will not go to the polls.

Remember: Many Christians stayed home rather than vote for a Mormon. I am hearing many of my Christian friends say that they will never vote for an over-the-top, lying bully who makes false accusations against decent Christians. In short, Trump's phenomenally high unfavorability rating includes a very significant percentage of the Republican voting block. So, Trump might be the guy who is committing political suicide--by his Alinsky-style tactics.)

.....”Trump's phenomenally high unfavorability rating includes a very significant percentage of the Republican voting block. So, Trump might be the guy who is committing political suicide—by his Alinsky-style tactics.”....... Trump reflects the very path the founders rejected. His style is always undergirded by insult, bully bashing and violence in his campaign.....indirectly and directly...."I'd like to punch him in the face." as one of many examples. Everyone who opposes or disagrees with him is an idiot, a moron or a loser. It's pretty easy to assume if he wins the Presidency he will go to Washington and bully his way through.....it will never end well.
