Donald Trump might win... another hitler figure?

[peeonme]

Were Americans offered a choice between Hillary, and Trump I believe that Hillary Clinton would win the presidential vote.

To believe otherwise, would be to image that Americans had been overcome by a psychosis, hitherto unknown in mankind.

History repeats itself because no one listened the first time. Personally, I would rather not have either of them, Trump or Clinton.
This has to be the worst field of candidates that I can remember.

Perception is all for those who believe that public rhetroic is sufficient to prove the worthiness of any human being.

As it has been said, and often, the proof of the pudding is in its eating.

Isn't that true of all human beings.

To be clear, just acknowledging the possibility of anyone winning hardly means that they will, totally denying any possibility is not wise.

America is, (for want of a better term) pissed off.
9/11 happened and our response was a cluster fuck. Thanks to our leaders.
The housing bubble popped, the world economy nearly went off of the cliff. Thanks to our leaders.
Our infrastructure is crumbling. Thank to our leaders.
Most Americans in my area fill over ran and displaced by foreigners. They blame our leaders for this.
Many fill that they got fucked royal when global trade came along. Bill Clinton did that one.
Wages have been stagnate if not going down, thanks Washington!
Obama did what he could for health care, it was a miracle that he could get anything past congress. Still we need a single payer system. Lobbyists will pay off our leaders so that this doesn't happen.

THEN, nearly every night, every fucking night, I hear a story on the news, the cops kill an unarmed man. A nut job shoots up planned parenthood, an asshole shoots up a church, someone who has tasted the American Dream because we opened our doors to his parents
kills his fellow workers, I thought that Sandy Hook and the killing of children would motivate our leaders.
I guess that since they are protected that it is not that much of a problem.

This is not your typical election coming up, desperate times call for desperate measures.
People are pissed.

What leader since Hitler has undertaken to alter the ethnic make up of his electorate by authoritarian--or other-- means? Hint: his middle name is Hussein.

So, it's you who has been posting this crap on the local Craigslist.

That while shilling so hard for Donnie, you'd think they are Donnie's PAL (Personal Ass Licker).

 

[SaskGuy]

Yea, I really wish people would stop comparing every right-wing politician to Hitler. People should read up on Hitler, he committed alot of horrifying atrocities, and he doesn't even come close to Trump.
In fact, there's a billboard in my city comparing Stephen Harper to Hitler... it's starting to turn into just a general insult towards right-wing politicians, and it's just a cheap shot. It's also seriously offensive to those who have suffered, or have friends, family, ancestors, etc. who suffered under the Nazi regime.

I also see people comparing Obama, or Bernie Sanders to Stalin... do people who do that even have any knowledge about history at all?

Trump is just some ultra-capitalist, right-wing douchenozzle, not a horrific dictator.

 

[jbrown329]

^^ I'd compare them to dog shit. But that would be insulting the dog shit.

The GOP created the mold that is today Donald Trump. The GOP is party that answers to the Religious Right, the NRA, the KKK, Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Ann Counter, Grover Norquist, the Koch boys and host of other right media of hate.

Whilst the other candidates are not rich enough and have to suck Koch to get funding, along comes Donald Trump, white, racist, sexist, jingoistic, denigrates the disabled, calls Mexicans rapists, is gungho about wiping out them muslims, and above all so rich he couldn't care less about Koch funding, and the republican party's usual funding leash that keeps those candidates towing the line have no effect on this elephant on a rampage. But he's ofay with gays. 2016 look out!

Julian.

He is the man to watch.

IS he OK with gays?

No, he doesn't have to worry about funding. CNN, MSNBC, FOX Business, etc. are ENTIRELY PAYING for his campaign and giving him a free ride all the way. These channels are forever committed, it seems, to broadcasting every possible word that he ever utters at any public event. I was surprised that they didn't interrupt the San Bernardino coverage this past Wednesday, to broadcast a Trump speech from Amarillo or wherever he may have been.

I just heard he's spent LESS THAN $300,000 on his entire campaign. He doesn't NEED to spend anything.

Yes, this is the guy who has said that we should kill and torture FAMILY MEMBERS related to people who *might* be terrorists, and that **AMERICAN CITIZENS** who happen to be Muslims should be banned from ever coming home again if they leave, presumably even a CITIZEN from Dearborn who goes to Windsor for two hours.

This is Naziism all the way.

 

[justaguy]

For a guy in NZ, does Trump have any chance of becoming president? What is likely to happen from here? Will he win the Republican nomination (as remarkably he seems to be ahead in the polls), and if so, can he be elected president against the Democrat candidate?

 

[rareboy]

He has no chance of getting the GOP nomination or if he did, of becoming president.

 

[Benvolio]

I think it is unlikely, but he is ahead of the curve on the refugees and illegal immigration. If there are other terrorist incidents in the US or Europe, he has a chance.

 

[NotHardUp1]

No. Voting reactionary and voting stupid are realliy different things.

There are competent candidates on the GOP ticket who can play the fear card and their party would still get a competent candidate. Not possible with Trump.

That's Trump's agenda dating back to the time when a tribal leader would indoctrinate his clan into believing that the people who live on the other side of the hill cannot be trusted. Strategies based on fear of the unknown work well in the minds of those who are paranoid that their new neighbour might well be different...

There is always a capacity for the repellent in all of us, particularly among those who dwell on the dark side.

 

[Benvolio]

Face it, his fear is probably more powerful at the moment that the democrats fear card. Scaring the voters on global warming is playing on fear with less immediacy than the terrorist threat. Scaring the people on gun confiscation is not working either. Gun sales are up, and you cannot assume that only Republicans are buying them. Your class and racial hatred is taking a back seat to terrorism as well.
There is a good chance that the terror immediacy will quiet down in the 11 months before the election. But it can rear its ugly head again at any time. The muslims may think that election time is a good time to spread terror.

Yes, other Republicans could urge defense from the terrorists, but they haven't picked up the ball.
