Republican Election 2016 - Donald Trump Megathread [OFFICIAL]

[rogueMatthias]

Oh people know of Clinton's wrong doings, the problem is, they don't care.

Pretty much this.

As secretary of state she supported Al-Qaeda in Syria (albeit under a different name) and took bribes from pretty much anyone (including Russians)... unless you actually believe the investigations that all of the donations from each benefiting party was just incredibly coincidentally timed generosity.

Still people say that it's Trump that's the corrupt, untrustworthy war-mongerer. She'll stil probably make a better president than Trump though LoL

Losing by double digits is not doing well.

That poll is scientific. Meanwhile, EXACTLY LIKE LAST TIME, Trump is on twitter praising the internet polls that you can click on multiple times, and taking shots at CNN. As a reminder, CNN was not only right about their poll about who won, as literally every other scientific poll backed them, they said Clinton won by an even smaller margin than the FOX poll. Also, Clinton has the full support of her entire party, which Trump can no longer say.

No, Trump is not doing quite well. Not anymore.

You just can't be agreeable even with the simplest of things. Face it...Clinton should be winning by 50 points and isn't because she's such a shit candidate.

[DocSavageFan]

Oh, Hillary is not a good candidate, I agree there. But as much as I loved Bernie, he would not be able to win the general, mostly because a lot of the country is still hung up on "socialist = communist".

The Democrats did not really have any good conventional candidates, and if the GOP electorate were smart they would have gone with John Kasich; he would be leading Hillary right now.

But they chose Trump, and he riled up the xenophobic/conspiracy theory voters, and people that were negatively affected by Globalization. Neither I would call "highly educated". It speaks more about the GOP having a pretty bad voter base, than Hillary, who is just a vanilla washington insider with a lot of baggage.

John Kasich was my #1 choice...but I knew he could never get the nomination. I thought maybe Bush, Rubio or Christie had decent a chance. But hey, that goes to show you just how much I know. The only worse candidate than Trump would have been Cruz imo.

I think it has more to do than Bernie's policies sucked ass.

than Cruz that slimy weasely fuck

Why don't you tell us how you really feel?

Actually, why doesn't he say how he really feels? Where is Cruz? Oh wait, he's on Twitter, complaining about the timing of the release of the tapes. Not the content. The timing.

"Why weren't they released 11 years ago? Then I wouldn't be working for this asshat."

Oh he's so adorable. Doesn't he know that only Trump is allowed to play the victim game with the media?

[LaserSharkDFB]

Trump is holding a rally in PA, showing he can't do math. I watched for five minutes. He lied seven times, doubled down on debunked material twice, said bleaching was expensive, took shots at the moderators and Congress, and yes, "lock her up" was chanted -- and he brought up the special prosecutor again.

He just doesn't know how an election works.

Why the hell does he keep going back to this? It's like someone planted an idea in his head that Clinton used actual expensive chemicals to delete emails and no amount of debunking will shift it. I know he's too dumb to change, but this is ignorance on a catastrophic scale.

[Breccia]

If anything good has come out of this election -- and it has, Bernie made a significant impact -- but the other thing would be Ted Cruz's political ambitions ended. He was arguably the least liked politician in the USA before he ran, then he lost to Trump, then he started working for Trump 2 days before the shit hit the fan. He just needed to hold onto some semblance of a spine and/or soul for a couple days! A week, tops! Then he could have voted his conscience and moonwalked back to DC saying "Guess what motherfuckers? This is your fault!"

Because his supporters are too stupid to understand how "the cyber" works.

He has no idea how "the cyber" works.

If you think Clinton was bad with emails, wait till he has a hand with them.

This is possibly calculated...having the media and Hillary supporters correct him on the details of her IT shenanigans is likely exactly what he wants.

[Cyberowl]

I wonder where Trump gets his seemingly infinite amount of breathtakingly stupid, blonde live commentators, who are willing to make a joke out of themselves, from.

[Elegiac]

If I had a choice of John Kasich vs Hillary Clinton, it would be a really hard decision..

Would it? I'm so glad that you are insulated from the negative impacts of a Republican presidency.

I mean it's not your right to marry, or your reproductive health, or your livelihood in this country that is at risk. Why do the socially responsible thing when you can pussyfoot around and feel good about yourself by not voting for Crooked Hillary.

The way you lot carry on as if there is any degree of parity between the two camps is absolutely ridiculous.

Um...London, apparently? Is he importing Brexit people? And is she an illegal immigrant?

Because the cyber is hard. This stuff hurts my head as well I use programs like that routinely when disposing of old hard drives before taking a hammer to them. We are supposed to make sure if we decomission an HD that client info can't get out so its a pretty routine procedure.

Republicans aren't the fucking borg and I don't think you have a clue about John Kasich. The bubble is strong with you.

[Elegiac]

No, they're not the borg; but their party platform hinges upon such things as an organic necessity. Regardless of John Kaisch's personal qualities, he will have to compromise regarding his SCOTUS appointments with the general party, and that is what makes a GOP presidency undesirable.

Don't like what Trump says? It's what the GOP has been encouraging for the past forty plus years.

Actually have a point here. His average supporter is too dense to understand "evul technology" and all "the cybers". The more detailed Clinton and the media gets the more it divides the dummies from the people with just average intelligence. They'll go "See! Those damn scienticians talking that techno babble again! They ain't like us common folk!"

[Garnier Fructis]

Donald just saw his lowest chance of winning so far in 538's polls plus model. And the post-pussy tape data is just starting to come in.

Better jump on the 'enthusiasm > polls' bandwagon to preserve your sanity.

[BrerBear]

You just can't be agreeable even with the simplest of things. Face it...Clinton should be winning by 50 points and isn't because she's such a shit candidate.

Neither candidate would ever drop below 35% or so because plenty of people will vote for whomever supports their position on abortion or whatever pet issue they care about.
The wiggle room is only 10-20%, and Trump is already pushing that boundary. Sad!
