    Hopefully this finally convinces people to run away from Trump, but I doubt it.
    At this point, Trump could rape a bear in Times Square and it wouldn't hurt his poll numbers.

      I'd pay money to see that movie!

        Ha. No it isn't.

          Yeah, you are right....a woman who is a known liar (it really just gets into how damning are the things she has lied about) or a self-avowed socialist isn't damning at all. I know the left gets a pass when it comes to the fringe-left, but both of these candidates are awful, one because she is an awful human being, and the other because he is an ornery socialist.

              If Trump gets the nomination, the general election will be a bloodbath. Republican party is a joke right now. Argh....

                Why wouldn't the repubs unleash these stories against Trump now? Nothing else they are doing seems to be working.
                Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                  Since Trump enjoys a double-digit advantage in every primary poll, I would suspect that anyone within the republican party is very nervous about attacking him. No one wants to get motivated voters angry.

                    THey have been but the far right is so intent on picking a non-establishment guy that Trump is their man regardless of the scandals or stupid remarks. Hillary will likely get the independent vote if Trump is the GOP nominee. I personally can't convince myself to vote for either one (not that it matters since I live in a very red state) so I might pull an Uncle Ted and vote for a Libertarian.

                      Should Trump win the nomination, my protest vote will unabashedly be for Clinton. And I would hope that others who lean right on many issues do the same. Clinton generates by far the most disgust on the right side. My hope would be that if she becomes president because of help from the center-right vote, the republican party would finally wake and grow up. It is a complete circus right now.

                        Trump and Clinton have far more in common than Trump and pretty much anyone else in this election. It is simply that one is more forthright about who they really are.

                          How would anyone (besides those close to them) even know that?

                            Oh he knows. It's probably why he doesn't vote.

                              No, I don't vote, because, unfortunately, my vote doesn't matter. If it mattered, I would vote.

                                imanihonjin is waiting for the moment when everyone else in the country has voted and the vote is perfectly split, 50-50. And the entire world waits as he somberly walks into the booth to cast his vote, which will forever change history.
