Location: Bastrop, Texas | The Huffington Post just wrote an article in which they claim that as many as 1 million Americans are planning on leaving the U.S. If Trump wins the election. They call them refugees and apparently most will seek asylum in Great Britain. That includes a lot of celebrities like Whoopie Goldberg, Rosie O'Donnell, and Cher.
I need to re-read that article to a background of "Oh Happy Day!" By the Edwin Hawkins singers. This is glorious news indeed! |

Location: Bastrop, Texas | Ironic. A month ago the British parliament was voting to ban Trump from the U.K. Now, they will have a flood of refugees from the U.S. ( we hope). I'd say that's poetic justice. They can stick that in their asses.......and deal with the flood of all the other refugees they were so eager to accept. I'd pay half of my retirement just to see Whoopie, Rosie, and Al Sharpton living in tents, lining up for their pork and beans. |

| What is really getting me po'd is that the people are speaking by voting for Trump and yet the GOP is trying to stop him. This makes me think that they aren't concerned about what the majority of the people want at all. They are afraid that he is going to change things and that is the very reason why he is winning. Do they not get that the people are sick and tiried of the way it has been and Want Change! I won't be surprised if he wins enough to get the nomination but they still don't give it to him. They are trying to keep us under their thumb. I wouldn't vote for Hillary no matter who she was running against. |

| I won't tip my hat to either side of the aisle one way or the other but there are those who think Trump is a liberal Democrat disguised in Republican clothing. The best demonstrator of how someone will behave is their past behavior - Donald and Hillary have been on the same playing field for many years. I think that scares some Republicans, justifiably so, given Trump's history. My two cents.

This is where your thinking is wrong.....he does NOT have the majority of Republicans supporting him. IMO.....this will end at a "brokered convention" because IF you take the time to add up the delegates that they others already have, they have the same or a few more than Trump....... |

I agree I said the same thing 4 months ago on this board. The way I do the math he is going to be about 200-250 short heading into Cleveland.

| A lot of people said that when President Obama won and I do not recall any major loss of population. I do not know what to make of Trump other than he is a business man and apparently a racist, sexist narcissist. I do not think he can properly lead the USA. But also do not think any other republican candidates are any better. They are all corrupt. Hillary has proven to be just as corrupt as any of the Republican candidates. I personally think Bernie Sanders would get us back on the path of a true democracy, where our votes mean something. Trump will do what Trump does. Run this country like a business. You can't run a country like a business. |

| I may have used the wrong word in "majority", what I meant is he is getting the most votes. If he goes into the convention without the nomination I don't think they will give it to him even if he does have the most votes by the people. The good ol' boys don't want him rocking the boat that they have been sailing in all these years. If he does go in with the most votes and doesn't get the nomination that is going to cause an uproar and end the party. The good ol' boys have just about killed the party anyway I guess. Mike Huckabee (sp?) has a very good write up on Yahoo telling the party that they better be ready to unite behind the one with most votes. Otherwise he says why waste the time on an election if they are just going to go behind closed doors and appoint someone.
I was wrong it wasn't on yahoo. Hopefully this link will work. http://www.newsmax.com/Headline/Mike-Huckabee-GOP-Establishment-Bedwetting-Trump/2016/03/02/id/717063/

I think you need to learn a little more. Bernie Sanders will get us on a track alright......the same path Greece is on, or the same path to Marxism.
This country was NOT designed as a pure democracy. It was established as a "representative republic" and we should all be both mindful of that fact, and thankful as well. A representative republic was designed to avoid the tyranny of the majority ("mob rule"). Unfortunately, what we have now is the "tyranny of the minority" - a relatively small cabal of liberal academics, the liberal media, and liberal-progressive Democrats who have a stranglehold on how issues should be presented to an increasingly ignorant, apathetic public all enslaved in bondage to self. |
