Just FWIW, he didn't say McCain isn't a war hero because he got captured, but that he's only considered a war hero because he was captured.
HodorIsADJ
That's what I don't understand. The random marine who got a hand blown off by his own fault. Is he a hero? Why does he get a parade?

True, but that's not exactly what he was saying :P he said the way to stop Isis was to capture their pips fields.

While Trump is a moron, we have because WAAAAYY to politically correct. At least Trump says what he thinks instead of what he was told to

hollyoud22
I barely understood that; you know, it's probably not a bad thing for POLITICIANS to be POLITICALLY correct. IDK why that phrase is bad
notablyabsent
Because it causes mistrust. You know Trump believes what he says, but that can't be said for other politicians. Problem is what he believes
hollyoud22
It doesn't cause mistrust among the general population. If you think that's the case, I suggest you do more research on the term.

Donald Trump is not the likely nominee. He's the warm-up act. Makes a lot of noise before the real band come on

Quotes out of context should not be your source for "facts". Anyone can play this game and make a candidate look bad

Unfortunately, with or without context, these still prove how behind Trump's thinking is.

He's polling like 28% of "likely Republican voters," which is, what, 40% of the electorate. So, 11.2% of Americans are idiots? Sounds close.

About right. They can skew any poll to show whatever % makes a good story. About 30% is enough to be “scary" without being unbelievable.

To a point. In many of our nations, there are some requirements, but they are few and simple. And immigrants get help in reaching them.

It's the same as any race relations. Once you take all other variables away (mainly social class and education), those differences disappear

WhoIsCuttingUpDamnOnions
Hello from Random Mode. :(
Haxbrygd
I'm not voting republican in this election. Just because I'm conservative on some things doesn't mean I don't vote democrat sometimes.
QuestionableContent
Fair enough. I actually have to change my registration from Republican to Democrat this year to vote in the primaries.
Haxbrygd
I registered as independent, but I need to check my state's laws regarding primaries. Honestly, I think Bernie is about our best choice.
Haxbrygd
But I can promise you this: I WILL NOT fucking vote for Hillary. That woman scares the shit out of me, much like Sarah Palin did.
QuestionableContent
It'll depend on who wins the Republican primary for me. I love Bernie, but I can get by with Jeb. He did a great job as Governor of Florida.
Haxbrygd
Dunno. I just have an issue with another Bush or Clinton possibly being in office. He may have done well there, but his family...
Conyo
Then go the Bernie route:he at least talks about material issues and proposes means of dealing with them instead of speaking in abstraction

That's why I did go the Bernie route. The guy has a history of success in things he's run over the years.

Awesome. It's amazing to me that the far right has corrupted the founding fathers' views so much. Jefferson was all about free education.

I mean, Democrats are pretty split. But when it comes down to it, the D and regular Republicans are gonna vote Not Trump.

As popular as he is, he's too insane. I can't imagine the GOP actually backing him, and he can't win the presidency w/o their support.

Even if he does win they won't have trouble impeaching him the moment he does something idiotic, doubt it would him take long.

jayphat
This. Look at who lead in 2011 and then Romney was the nominee. Current polling means shit all.
QuestionableContent
Exactly. Cain, Perry, Gingrich, and even Santorum were all leading the polls at one time. The GOP will, unfortunately, nominate a sane pol.
itisnotjeremy
Romney was always in 2nd though, and other candidates were flavors of the month, this is unprecedented
QuestionableContent
That's because it's still early and no other candidate has been able to distinguish themselves from the noise. Until then Trump takes (1)
QuestionableContent
all the headlines and therefore the polls. I could be wrong, but I will be very surprised if we don't see a serious pol take the lead. (2)
itisnotjeremy
Yeah I think so too, Rubio or Bush will be competing, but also they have a lot of baggage
iLynux
It's gonna be Jeb.
Admiralakbar1
I'm betting Rubio. He's done nothing controversial and he can pull the Latino vote.
funkjacket
it was never not gonna be Jeb. Trump is base-rattler #1
QuestionableContent
I hope so. If there was one Republican I could tolerate it would be Jeb. I'm a liberal, but that man was the best gov of Florida. I miss him
iLynux
I'm a liberal, too. Jeb is the least stupid person on the right.
mcbubba12321
Trump is probably the least likely GOP candidate, the whole party hates him and pretty much sees him as a side show.
Lesterbro
That was true in July, not now.
VoltWrecker
Is it their choice? I thought people voted for the GOP candidates. I know nothing of American politics
Stickeris
Good get out and vote, use your voice
iPretend
He's a caricature of every reason I left the republicans and became a libertarian
popejubal
If the whole party hated him, he wouldn't be the front runner. Most recent poll I saw had him over 40%. Makes me sad for our country.

mcbubba12321
He's leading in the polls now, but that doesn't mean too much. Its just too early for them to be meaningful. IMO GOP will nominate Bush.

as other people drop out their supporters, who mostly hate trump, will go to other candidates. Nate Silver at fivethrityeight explains.

Yeah he is not "the likely Republican nominee."
TheTrueChosenJuan
Fuck I wish that was still true
The5lacker
Say that to the 25% popularity rate. He's crushing the other candidates.

The other 70% not voting for him, hate him and as the field narrows will switch their votes to non-Trump candidates. He's not very electable

Wow this really did not age well

You seem to think the entire election boils down to "Trump, yes/no?"

Sharkbait13
That's not necessarily true - there are open, closed and semi-closed primaries for presidential elections depending on the state (1/4)
Sharkbait13
Closed primaries allow only the voters registered to that party to vote in the primaries (CA-R, NY-D,R)
Sharkbait13
Open primaries allow any registered voter regardless of their affiliation to vote in the primaries (TX-D,R VA-D,R)
Sharkbait13
Semi closed primaries allow voters registered to the party as well as those registered as independents or unaffiliated voters (CA-D, MA-D,R)
JasonD
He is spending his own money now so that the real candidate can save up for the general election.

itisnotjeremy
The tea party is a big part of the republican party, most political experts are 50/50 about him winning the nomination, Jeb is imploding
BlackPanther01
He's threatened to run independent which would pretty much guarantee a Dem victory so Reps are playing nice with him.
GreaterDog
Must suck to have to keep someone like this going in fear of losing your stupid demographic
icephoenix
A dem victory is likely anyways because the republican party.
fissy
Honestly, a dem win is pretty much guaranteed at this point...
TheRealSatanshandyman
We're more than a year away. Nothing is guaranteed at this point. Obama was basically unknown at this point in his first election.
th3p0x
I'm still waiting for Hillary to bust out whatever dirt (bullshit or not) her people have dug up on Bernie.
mcbubba12321
He would be stupid to do that, but that doesn't mean he wouldn't even if it was just for shits and giggles.
FlatPlutoSociety
He doesn't care of a Republican or Democrat wins. He just wants the attention from running.
BlackPanther01
He wouldn't win but neither were the Rep candidate. Manipulation style.
StandardDeviant
It's electoral nuclear terrorism. Even if you don't believe he's crazy enough to do it, you can't take the risk that he might.
TylerD2022
Bernie Sanders is in the same boat. He won't get the Dem nomination and run as an independent. He'll split the Dem vote as well.
thejollymolly
Except he's already said he wont run as an Independent if he doesn't get the Dem nomination.
TylerD2022
Remains to be seen. Gary Johnson said the same in 2012, and he ran as the Libertarian candidate. Remember that he's above all a politician.
BlackPanther01
Sanders isn't that kind of guy.
SnookerSylph
Sanders has a long history of standing by his word. He may be a politician but he has a clean history and seems like a stand up man
thejollymolly
Yeah, but he's one of the few politicians that says what he means, and is honest. If he says he won't run, he won't.
CitizenDickbag
Sanders won't run as independent, he's stated so. Don't tell lies now.

delpharseven
This. The Party can always arbitrarily change the nomination rules to exclude him. They know he is poison in a general election.
StandardDeviant
But then he'll run as an independent and torpedo the whole party
Hahahales
Can you explain? I assumed that the GOP would just not select him but didn't realize they could just change rules. Why are they waiting?
StandardDeviant
If they make some arbitrary rule to exclude donald, he'll run as an independent and take the Republicans down with him.
delpharseven
Oh yeah they can change the rules at any time. Eg. "New rule everybody, you can't be a candidate if you ever held a membership in the (1/?)
delpharseven
Democratic party. What's that Donald, you did? Well isn't that too bad. Goodbye." As for waiting, they're smart enough to know that (2/?)
delpharseven
these early polls with such a large field of candidates are very unreliable. They can wait and see after the field narrows after the (3/?)
