[letmein]

A couple of things...

Donald Trump is a national joke in the US. He does this every election cycle. He's an unhinged lunatic; a failed businessman.

Secondly, Republicans stand no chance of winning the Presidency in 2016. They're too crazy for mainstream America. They're still living in the 1950s, still debating whether evolution is real, proclaiming that the Bible is the answer to all of society's ills. Every Republican presidency has led to disaster, with debt piled sky high. Democrats always end up having to come in and clean up their mess, while Republicans sit on the sideline making snide remarks. The Republican presidential nomination race is a freak show, one big clown car. Moderate Republicans were thrown out of their party. Many have switched sides and become Democrats. The Tea Party lunatics and Christian fundamentalists now run the show. Unless you're a conservative, Christian, white, heterosexual, male, you have no business being in the GOP. If you're a moronic minority who is a card carrying member of their club, you have to commit identity suicide to find a seat at the table. Republicans did well in 2014 thanks to redistricting, and the fact that their own members flocked to the polls for the midterms, which always bring out much less than the presidentials. Republicans screamed, "Jobs! Jobs! Jobs!" They got into power and all it is are social issues. Ted Cruz, who is also running for the GOP nom, shut down the government last year, putting the country in grave danger. Why? To throw a temper tantrum over not winning the 2012 election. They're nothing but a bunch of children stomping their feet when they don't get their way. This is why mainstream America doesn't trust them, and rightfully so. They play politics with everything.

Jeb Bush actually came out and said that his brother, George W advises him on foreign policy. These people live in a bubble. They couldn't believe that they lost the 2012 election. They will only read their "own polls." Their own polls showed them winning, despite reality outlined by Nate Silver.

GOP candidate Trump goes after Sen. John McCain's war record

AMES, Iowa (AP) — Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump criticized Arizona Sen. John McCain's military record Saturday, saying he was a "war hero because he was captured."
Related Stories

Speaking at a conference of religious conservatives in Iowa, Trump was pressed on his recent description of the 2008 Republican presidential nominee as "a dummy."

McCain served as a Navy pilot during the Vietnam War. He was captured after his plane was shot down and was held more than five years as a prisoner of war. The moderator, Republican pollster Frank Luntz, described McCain as "a war hero."

Trump said McCain "is a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren't captured." The comment drew some boos from the audience.

During a news conference after his appearance, Trump did not apologize but sought to clarify his remarks.

"If a person is captured, they're a hero as far as I'm concerned. ... But you have to do other things also," Trump said. "I don't like the job John McCain is doing in the Senate because he is not taking care of our veterans."

Republican presidential candidate, real estate mogul Donald Trump, waves after speaking at the Famil …

A spokesman for McCain, Brian Rogers, said no comment when asked about Trumps remarks.

Trump said he avoided service in the Vietnam War through student and medical deferments, adding that he did not serve because he "was not a big fan of the Vietnam war. I wasn't a protester, but the Vietnam war was a disaster for our country."

The comments about McCain drew rapid criticism from other 2016 hopefuls. In a statement, former Texas Gov. Rick Perry said the remarks make Trump "unfit to be commander-in-chief." Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush tweeted: "Enough with the slanderous attacks. @SenJohnMcCain and all our veterans — particularly POWs have earned our respect and admiration."

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker were also quick to condemn the remarks.

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz called McCain an American war hero, but sidestepped when asked whether he would condemn the remarks.

"I recognize that folks in the press love to see Republican on Republican violence," Cruz said. "You want me to say something bad about Donald Trump or bad about John McCain or bad about anyone else and I'm not going to do it."

Trump was among 10 GOP presidential candidates on Saturday's program for the Family Leader Summit.

WOW. I like Trumps directness but this is completely out of order. He's already gone to far IMO. This from a man who never served in the military. Its gonna be a fun campaign with this clown in the field but the sooner he's exposed for the joker he is the sooner he's out of the race for good.

I'm no John MCCain fan, he is the most responsible for the fame of Sarah palin but he is without doubt a war hero. He was captured for five years, had to endure unbelievable torture and then along comes draft dodger Trump to comment that he's only revered cuz he was captured. Trump already showing a lack of knowledge regarding military issues.

Already sick of these tough guy Republicans who never served a minute in the military. They'll send troops everywhere just along as its not them or their family who have to fight.

From CNN

McCain, a Naval aviator, was shot down in 1967 over North Vietnam and fractured both arms and legs after being ejected from his aircraft. He was repeatedly tortured during his stay in the notorious "Hanoi Hilton" -- and refused early release when the North Vietnamese learned his father was a Navy admiral -- until he finally returned home in 1973 following the Paris Peace Accords.

The Arizona senator, who has limited mobility in his arms following his war experience, received the Distinguished Flying Cross, a Silver Star and a Purple Heart for his service.

Trump, meanwhile, received several deferments during the war. According to The Smoking Gun, which obtained selective service records for Trump in 2011, he received four student deferments between 1964 and 1968, and later a medical deferment in 1968.

I like that Trump goes after big targets but his lack of respect for people who have achieved things he was too coward to take part in show us what he's about. Trump is top of the poll and of course he's the name every one has heard of but this kind of disrespect will finish Trumps career on this kind stage.

Jon Stewart is having a field day cuz he only has a few weeks left on his show and Trump presidency run is by far the biggest source of gags at the moment.

To go back to my main point. You will find that most of the criticism has come from Republicans cus he's top on the polls by over ten percent and is currently polling double Jeb Bush. This is not good at all for the GOP. Democrats dont need to comment on this but Republicans are realizing this monster is bigger than they ever imagined.

Obviously I dont think Trump will get the nomination but at this rate whoever does get it has got to seriously consider him as a running mate. Vice President Trump :joker:

Titans Clash as Donald Trump’s Run Fuels His Feud With Rupert Murdoch


In the rarefied world of New York moguls, Rupert Murdoch never thought much of Donald J. Trump.

Mr. Trump’s divorces and marriages sold newspapers, but beyond that, Mr. Murdoch had no time for his bombastic business style and ostentatious demeanor. “Phony” was how Mr. Murdoch often described him to friends.

There was the time Mr. Trump screamed that he would sue for libel after Mr. Murdoch’s New York Post reported that the exclusive Maidstone golf club in East Hampton planned to deny Mr. Trump a membership.

Then there was the awkward aftermath of Mr. Murdoch’s own high-profile divorce from Wendi Deng Murdoch, when Mr. Trump’s daughter Ivanka, unlike many New York society figures, remained loyal to Ms. Deng Murdoch, a close friend.

Now, as Mr. Trump holds on to a first-place position in the polls while being roundly denounced across the political spectrum for harsh statements about Mexican immigrants and for belittling Senator John McCain’s war record, he has already lost the man who controls many of the nation’s most important media organizations.

“When is Donald Trump going to stop embarrassing his friends, let alone the whole country?” Mr. Murdoch wrote on Twitter on Saturday after Mr. Trump mocked Mr. McCain for having been captured as a pilot during the Vietnam War.

On Sunday, The Wall Street Journal, the crown jewel of Mr. Murdoch’s print company, News Corporation, published a scathing editorial calling Mr. Trump a “catastrophe.” And The Post’s front page screamed, “DON VOYAGE,” under a headline declaring, “Trump is toast.”

Mr. Trump responded by trashing The Journal on Twitter. “Look how small the pages have become,” he wrote. “Looks like a tabloid.”

Recognizing that winning over the notoriously headstrong Mr. Murdoch appears unlikely, Mr. Trump has set his sights instead on wooing perhaps the only media executive who wields as much firepower among Republicans: Roger E. Ailes, the chairman and chief executive of Fox News.

As the creator of the highest-rated cable news channel in the country (even surpassing ESPN in total viewers on some nights) and one of the most profitable assets in Mr. Murdoch’s film and television company, 21st Century Fox, Mr. Ailes has been given the freedom to operate largely outside the purview of Mr. Murdoch.

Mr. Trump and Mr. Ailes, whom Mr. Trump has called “one of the great geniuses in television history,” had a private lunch last month in New York. (A Fox News spokeswoman, Irena Briganti, said they had known each other for about 25 years and had a cordial relationship.) But Mr. Trump has not reached out to arrange a meeting with Mr. Murdoch, as a number of other Republican candidates have.

Fox News has by no means given Mr. Trump a pass for his remarks about Mr. McCain. On Monday, the host Bill O’Reilly chided Mr. Trump. “He was on a bombing mission, he was shot down, he was tortured,” Mr. O’Reilly said. “Come on, Donald, you know that the way that came off wasn’t correct!”

To which Mr. Trump replied with the closest thing yet to an apology: “Certainly if there was a misunderstanding, I would totally take that back.”

CNN and MSNBC have also devoted hours to Mr. Trump, whose histrionics have been a ratings bonanza. But his treatment by Fox News is much more crucial because of the influence the channel wields among the Republican Party’s base. And Fox News, as the host of the first primary debate on Aug. 6, has set the criterion that the debate will include the top 10 candidates as determined by national polls; Mr. Trump currently tops many polls.

Mr. Ailes, who recently renewed his multiyear contract, enjoys his editorial independence and his position as cable news contrarian. And in Fox News’s serious handling of Mr. Trump so far, longtime associates of Mr. Ailes discern a larger plan.

If the Trump balloon ultimately bursts, they suggested, it could buy time for other Republican contenders to hone their messages and become more seasoned campaigners. Either way, Mr. Ailes benefits with ratings in the meantime.

Ms. Briganti, the Fox News spokeswoman, called any implication that the channel’s coverage of Mr. Trump was a ploy to help the eventual Republican nominee “absolute nonsense, 100 percent untrue and said by someone who clearly doesn’t know Roger.”

For Mr. Murdoch, his misgivings about Mr. Trump long predate the current dust-up — though a core policy disagreement over immigration, friends say, prompted Mr. Murdoch to speak out.

Mr. Murdoch, an Australian native, has long pushed for an overhaul of the United States’ immigration system, including a path to citizenship for the 11 million people already in the country illegally.

Mr. Trump, in his presidential kickoff, warned that Mexican immigrants were bringing drugs into the country and called them “rapists” and criminals — a statement that many Republicans fear will deeply damage the party with Hispanic voters.

“Mexican immigrants, as with all immigrants, have much lower crime rates than native born,” Mr. Murdoch wrote on Twitter on July 12. “Trump wrong.”

But Mr. Trump’s remarks struck a populist chord with many conservatives, for whom opposing a path to citizenship is a key rallying point.

Ann Coulter, the conservative commentator, whose new book, “¡Adios, America!” addresses the nation’s immigration system, said, “Immigration is the new litmus test on the right.”

“Right now, it’s Trump! Trump! Trump! because he’s the only one talking about immigration,” she said in an email.

But Mr. Murdoch’s history with Mr. Trump extends well beyond immigration.

For years, the name Trump in a headline meant eyeballs and newsstand sales for Mr. Murdoch’s beloved New York Post, which broke its own record for front-page stories on a single topic in the 1990s with its coverage of Mr. Trump’s affair with Marla Maples and his split with Ivana Trump.

Mr. Trump long benefited from the publicity The Post provided him — even in headlines (“Best Sex I Ever Had,” quoting Ms. Maples) that might embarrass a private person — as he transitioned from flashy real estate developer to even flashier reality television star.

The relatively low-key Mr. Murdoch, who would prefer an ink-stained newsroom to a gold-plated Trump penthouse, was turned off by Mr. Trump’s glitziness and braggadocio, friends said.

Mr. Trump defended Mr. Murdoch during the phone hacking scandal at his British newspapers: When a select parliamentary committee declared Mr. Murdoch “unfit” to run them, Mr. Trump said, “They should be so lucky to be as unfit as him,” according to The Australian — another Murdoch paper.

Mr. Murdoch crossed paths with Mr. Trump more frequently when his now ex-wife Ms. Deng Murdoch became close friends with Mr. Trump’s daughter Ivanka. The Murdochs and Ms. Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, the publisher of The New York Observer, double-dated and vacationed on Mr. Murdoch’s 184-foot yacht. The Murdochs’ 2013 divorce put an end to those excursions, though Mr. Murdoch remains friendly with Mr. Kushner.

But aside from the stray threat of a lawsuit, tensions between Mr. Trump and Mr. Murdoch did not escalate into public warfare until this year.

“Wow, I have always liked the @nypost but they have really lied when they covered me in Iowa,” Mr. Trump wrote on Twitter in January. “Packed house, standing O, best speech! Sad.”

This could be interesting. Its pretty much common knowledge that Murdoch does not like Trump but the head of Fox News Roger Ailes is a close friend of Trumps. Trumps been getting lots of coverage on Fox and apparently Murdoch is not happy about it.
Cat fight.

Strange debate. Mainstream media outlets say he won, the Republican media say he lost. Either way he's completely ******ing up the race for the genuine candidates but its great TV and I love watching it.

That 'debate' was hilarious.. the attacks on the presenter and the strange things he was saying, who is this Rosie Odonnal and why does he hate her so much?

Trumps policy on Healthcare is he'd repeal Obamacare and replace it with 'Something terrific'. :joker:

He's such a joke candidate but he's polling top. I think it would be hilarious if Trump is a serious consideration for Vice President.

No matter how old the clip Trump is still a joke.

I think these two clips also show a little bit of contempt Obama has for Trump. The Roast is terrific. The line 'And these decisions would keep me up at night too' is a absolute zinger. In one sentence Obama show why Trump is a joke

Trump smashing it again last night, the White House is gonna be his

Matt do you actually want that racist, homophobic, transphobic rapist as a president? :umm2:

[MTVN]

He is America's Jeremy Corbyn, a man bringing back conviction politics who gives clear answers and believes in what he says

[GiRTh]

At least Jeremy Corbyn has some idea about Government., Last night when Trump was asked about his foreign policies still had no clue, stating that he would 'figure it out' when he got into office. Why figure it out then? Why not next week or next Month?. Why wait till then to understand the problem? He's ludicrous. Why are such vague answers from Trump not challenged more.

Sad that Cary Fiorina was the only one to stand up to Trump and extremely sad that the GOP are in such a state that all the candidates had to bow to Trump.

[MTVN]

Donald will learn on the job, he's a very intelligent chap

I'd prefer if he knew a bit before he took office.

This may get him in alot of trouble. He cant answer questions from idiots like this and he should have corrected the fool on Obamas nationality. Just like John McCain did when he got a similar question. :bored:

Finally the GOp realise Trump has been top of the polls for 3 month, but he is not their boy so they cant control him. It looks like the attacks ads are in place. The GOP know how to smear and discredit people and Trump wont back down at this stage,. Thiscould be very ugly.

[the truth]

thankfully Hilary will obviously be the next president and she will hopefully put America on a better footing
