For somebody who thinks everyone loves him, The Donald does have a way of alienating people.

We get it, Donald. They are a bunch of losersā€¦and one has already overtaken you and the rest are edging ever closer to you as we speak.

These GOP losers canā€™t swim in his wake, havenā€™t you heard?

Donā€™t knock it. Putting as many of the GOP contenders out of action as possible is the best service he could give this country.

No, noā€¦ itā€™s the church he was brought up in but hasnā€™t attended for years. He claimed to belong and they more or less said ā€œWho?ā€

All reality shows finally cave in from the weight of their own BS. Yet, The Donald sill has more going for him than the losers who were complaining about the media picking on them this week.

I hate to admit Trump is great at one thing. He IS an excellent businessman in one regard, he uses Twitter to reach voters and generate a ton of free press, and Twitter is FREE! The other dinosaur campaigns are busy printing all kinds of hard copies of things and buying expensive staff and television time, and Trump stays on the front page by using a free service like Twitter to reach tens of millions.

He seemed to be doing so well on his meds for a few days before and after the debate. Reince needs to coax him back on 'em.

But the real question is how much of the REpublican voting base is on Twitter? Remember, that the base, and in particular that portion that seems to love Trump, is older, less urban and white. That strikes me as a demographic that isnā€™t following Twitter much. If thatā€™s the case, then Trumpā€™s tweets are making more noise with the media than with the voters.

Trump still hasnā€™t done anything to disabuse me of my opinion that he is a Clinton plant.

He went all in from the word go and, while it was quite amusing/horrifying at the time, he had nowhere to go. So now heā€™s been blaring away at 11 for long enough, the rest of us have developed a tolerance. Heā€™s old news now.

not sure about the alienating republicant voters part, but if he doesnā€™t come up with a solution to the teamster hat, heā€™s toast.

Yea, he tied it long to cover up his hard-on.

heh heh, he said ā€œboning!ā€ But seriously folks, seriously, helping to keep a republican out of the white house actually promotes resolution of the monumental policy issues of our time, albeit indirectly, so if that is the result of his candidacy, along with general comedic relief, then imo he is a welcome addition to the American political theater.

sure, but consider: whether itā€™s 10 or 4,Trumpā€™s got billion$. that doesnā€™t mean heā€™s anything other than that heā€™s successful financially, but it means something, if only that he can negotiate deals that benefit him greatly in a very competitive arena. There are many things to criticize Trump for, but not being one of the killers that would eat rubio for lunch is not one of them.

We all wondered how Donald would handle it when his poll numbers started to slip.

Now, we know.

(Honestly, I think weā€™ve seen only the very beginning of the mighty feet-stamping writhing tantrum the Trump is going to throw over the next few weeks as his numbers continue to head south.)
