Rather winded, and begins disparaging Trump, but he gets it in the end...

[vannrox]

Trump may lean a bit to the psycho side, but he comes across as human — good, bad, admirable, ugly, right, wrong, bright, stupid, nice and mean, sometimes smart, sometimes crazy. That’s the appeal. All the other candidates act as if — well, as if they’re acting. They’re calculated and planned. That’s harder and harder to sell.

[Talisker]

Wow, talk about backhanded compliments.

Liberals truly do scream in the light - it hurts them.

[Organic Panic]

Americans, especially white Americans, are sick and tired of Obama treating them as less than citizens. His racial vengeance policies, his gay uber alles policies, and his ultra marxist hate of working Americans is getting old to a heck of a lot of people. I’ve listened to a couple Trump speeches. People like the energy. And he’s enjoying himself and gives an optimistic message. I’m not much of a fan for various reasons but by God if Hillary wins, which I think is likely from shenanigans, the country will be irreparable.

So hard to understand, when they could support that citadel of virtue and wisdom, Hillary Clinton. /s. When did people forget politicians are bufoons and crooks?

[atc23]

All politicians are anethema to normal people. This is news? Working people have two choices - begin to stop the bleeding (Trump) or continue down the path of special interest politics and end up in Gary, freaking Indiana (Clinton)

I am getting so sick of condescending, racist leftists calling the very people who built the greatest country on earth. They need to be banished to the fringes of political life this election.

[Ronin]

Just as it was with Reagan, a substantial portion — possibly as much as half — of Trump’s support is absolutely invisible. They do not put signs on their yard (they’d just get stolen and attract vandals), they do not put bumperstickers on their car (who wants to pay for a new paint job due to key wielding fascists), they keep their mouth shut in bars, stores, and offices (who can win an argument with a leftist fanatic?) — but inside the privacy of the voting booth, they are quietly looking forward to kicking the political establishments of both parties, the MSM, and every one of the freaky flaky leftist SJW set right in the nuts.

Millions of ordinary Americans support Donald Trump.

That can't possibly be true. My liberal friends tell me nobody is supporting Trump.

[Mr Radical]

Maybe the writer does, in some small way, get it at the end, but I gave up trying to translate after just the first paragraph...

I call it a "mystery" [1] because the working-class white wide variety of ordinary people who make up the bulk of Trump's fan base show up in amazing numbers for the candidate, filling stadiums and airport hangars, but their views, by and large by design, do not appear in our prestige newspapers Marxist propaganda sheets aka toilet-paper. On their opinion pages, these publications take care to represent demographic categories of nearly every kind to present only the Mainstream Media agenda, but "blue-collar" is one they persistently overlook ignore. The views of working-class people are so foreign to that universe alien to our own rose-tinted world-view that when New York Times columnist overpaid propagandist Nick Kristof wanted to "engage" [2] a Trump supporter last week , he made one up, along with this imaginary person's responses to his questions [3]

[1] a "mystery", dear brain-washed Guardian readers, so you don't need to indulge in original thought, I've done all the thinking on your behalf; all you need to do is read along with me and know how clever you are to be able to share this understanding
[2] "engage", of course, because you can't simply talk to a Trump supporter, they are too stupid, you have to make the effort or at least feign the interest to engage with them
[3] because he couldn't bear to hear the real honest down-to-earth truth nor even less would he dare report it

[miss marmelstein]

In all this blather, in which he says that the Times only talks about working-class polls and studies rather than interview real people, he ends up siting a working class study and interviewing nobody.

Trump a racist? I guess if you don’t love illegal immigration and the terrible problems it brings, you’re a racist.

[Big Red Badger]

Glad that’s settled,

Lots of Trump signs in the central Catskills! (Schoharie County) We took a drive through there yesterday when heading out for a 4th of July hike ...
