He is really good at telling everyone what is wrong but I have yet to hear solutions come out of his mouth. For instance, his answers to: Budget? - Cut spending; Social Security & Medicare? - Grow the economy; Illegals? - Build a wall(and make Mexico pay for it); Education? - common core is a disaster, Health Care System? - Disaster(obviously). How is he going to implement changes in these things?! He's always bought his way, bullied his way, or sued his way into getting what he wants. How's he going to deal with Congress? If anyone knows his answers to the questions above please tell me.... I have found some answers to things such as; How to defeat ISIS - Take the oil back(which would mean ground troops), China - charge tariff, Iran - Tougher sanctions When he has to deal with congress, he will treat them like the spoiled children they are. Haul them to the woodshed and spank their a$$es. If he gets elected he will be the people's president and congress will either work with him or he will go to the people and they will vote them out onto the street in two years. This is the first step of a journey that is long overdue. He can be the catalyst we need to change our government. He WILL use some of the secrets that are held in DC to get things done. yep!!! IMO, that will never happen. He may become the people’s President but you are giving him too much power…..when it comes down to electing or re-electing your own state’s Senator (every SIX years) or Representative (every TWO years), it boils down to what THAT Congressman has done for their OWN state (pork barrel)….why do you think some of these Senators, etc have been in office for 10-15-20+ years……

           Location: Florida.. | someone had posted this on a thread I agree..
There are far more important issues to be discussing Megan Kelly: about your war on women question... If I was Trump, I would have dumped that BS back in your lap. Our nation is pushing 20 trillion in debt, Iran is getting nukes, ISIS is chopping off Americans heads and burning people alive in cages, our government is paying an agency to chop up and sell the body parts of aborted babies and YOU are asking a candidate to address an imaginary war on women issue created by the Democratic Party? Can we please utilize our time to discuss REAL issues that are threatening to destroy this nation? | |

I believe the PEOPLE are beginning to understand the significance of 19,000,000,000,000 (nineteen trillion) dollars. Please allow me to explain it in terms you will understand.
Today I will give you a check for $1,000,000 (one million). CONDITIONALLY!! The condition is you have to spend ALL of that today, so you can come back tomorrow and get another check for $1,000,000... which you HAVE to spend tomorrow... so you can come back the next day and we do it again...
At the end of one year, you have spent 365 millions dollars.... At this rate it will take you OVER fifty-two THOUSAND YEARS to spend 19 trillion dollars... Jesus Christ was born just a smidgeon over 2 thousand years ago. So lets start there and go back another 50 thousand years. Look it up for yourself.
All of this has been done right under our noses.... But only now do the people begin to smell a rat.. BUT!! At least now they can smell it now. | |

          Location: Bastrop, Texas | The vast majority of candidates have little to no "experience" in actual foreign policy experience, including senators, governors, and congressmen.
The only candidate with real foreign policy experience is Hillary, and we know how well she's done in that area. That being said, Carly demonstrated a commanding mastery of the subject matter of all the subjects, including foreign policy. It sounds like she was absolutely flawless. Her foreign policy experience is in the private sector, but she sure sounds prepared.
Over the last 40 years, we've only had one president with a lot of foreign policy experience, and that was Gerorge HW Bush. Even Reagan had zero foreign policy experience prior to taking office.
Fiorina possesses all the key ideas and principles of a solid, sound, tough conservative. She's always impressed the hell out of me. I can't wait to see how she handles all the tricky, nasty, "unfair" questions that are headed her way...including personal questions and "gottcha" questions. People don't expect candidates to have a flawless record, nor to they expect them to be perfect....but they do expect honesty and resilience.
Here's how I see it. Candidates need to be able to withstand a withering, probing, assault from the press. It's good to see how they handle the pressure, because that pressure is a walk in the park compared to the real pressures they will experience as president. I think it's meaningful to see how candidates handle "unfair" tough questions. Life isn't fair. | |

Actually. I'm pretty good with numbers in my head... I didn't have to whip the calculator out till it was time to divide 19 trillion by 365 million. Fortunately Windows 8.1 comes with a calculator that counts into the hundreds of trillions. Have you spent the million dollars yet.... Better HURRY!!! You have a long row to hoe if Trump looses. Nobody can do it in four years.... Anyone that says they can, prolly has ocean front property in Montana to sell. It's WAY TOO LATE to get a fix in even eight years... But I honestly believe he can bring it down and set us on the right path.

I have found some answers to things such as; How to defeat ISIS - Take the oil back(which would mean ground troops), China - charge tariff, Iran - Tougher sanctions When he has to deal with congress, he will treat them like the spoiled children they are. Haul them to the woodshed and spank their a$$es. If he gets elected he will be the people's president and congress will either work with him or he will go to the people and they will vote them out onto the street in two years. This is the first step of a journey that is long overdue. He can be the catalyst we need to change our government. He WILL use some of the secrets that are held in DC to get things done.  yep!!!  IMO, that will never happen. He may become the people’s President but you are giving him too much power…..when it comes down to electing or re-electing your own state’s Senator (every SIX years) or Representative (every TWO years), it boils down to what THAT Congressman has done for their OWN state (pork barrel)….why do you think some of these Senators, etc have been in office for 10-15-20+ years……
No. It boils down to HOW he/she did it and what they had to trade off. (politics as usual) If we get lucky, this kind of behavior will change. And THAT'S what we need!!!
It's time to do away with 'You suck me and I'll suck you " and stand up and do what needs to be done to dig us out of this hole. | |

Bear - 2015-08-07 1:03 PM The vast majority of candidates have little to no "experience" in actual foreign policy experience, including senators, governors, and congressmen. The only candidate with real foreign policy experience is Hillary, and we know how well she's done in that area. That being said, Carly demonstrated a commanding mastery of the subject matter of all the subjects, including foreign policy. It sounds like she was absolutely flawless. Her foreign policy experience is in the private sector, but she sure sounds prepared. Over the last 40 years, we've only had one president with a lot of foreign policy experience, and that was Gerorge HW Bush. Even Reagan had zero foreign policy experience prior to taking office. Fiorina possesses all the key ideas and principles of a solid, sound, tough conservative. She's always impressed the hell out of me. I can't wait to see how she handles all the tricky, nasty, "unfair" questions that are headed her way...including personal questions and "gottcha" questions. People don't expect candidates to have a flawless record, nor to they expect them to be perfect....but they do expect honesty and resilience. Here's how I see it. Candidates need to be able to withstand a withering, probing, assault from the press. It's good to see how they handle the pressure, because that pressure is a walk in the park compared to the real pressures they will experience as president. I think it's meaningful to see how candidates handle "unfair" tough questions. Life isn't fair.
I really wish that I had watched the "pre" debates. She is sounding like she could rise up in the ranks and be in the next debate. I have seen some clips of her.
Here's a good one NJJ. http://www.msnbc.com/morning-joe/watch/fiorina--questions-were-toug... | |

Ya know what? SCREW foreign policy!! Just like Trump says, let them deal with their own crap! How many Frenchmen and Russians do you see defending our border with criminal Mexico? it's time we stopped policing the world and focused on things HERE!! How can we police the world when we can't even police our own border?!?!!
We can close all our borders and shut off the whole rest of the world and survive just fine.. There is NOTHING we NEED that we cannot produce ourselves.
She is still hung up on being politically correct. I would like to see her when she gets mad tho. I bet she could make some marks!! Edited by komet. 2015-08-07 3:21 PM

Never get tired of your incessant uninformed, uneducated dribble from which you each acknowledge the others stupidity. Please, carry on! | |

Boldly stated! It's been a long time since I've read something so informative and eloquent. Now that we've been admonished, please feel free to slither back under the rock from which you emerged. | |
