It speaks to the stereotype of Trump supporters. It's what I think of when I hear people blaring the Trump horn. If you support a racist/bigot and you believe in his policies and views, does that also make you a racist/bigot for supporting him?

Cool. So now we're devolving into stereotypes, and that's okay, eh?

No, it's not.

Please elaborate on my ignorance.

You've somehow managed to put your extremely strong opinion into nearly every word you wrote. That takes a lot of skill, actually.

People are finally coming to the correct conclusion that Trump would be a disaster for this country. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if this "Never Trump" movement gets some legs before the Convention. It would shatter the GOP (if it is not shattered already) but maybe it needs shattering. It really wouldn't take much to get it done because the rules of the 2016 GOP Convention are not yet in place. There will be a 112 member rules committee that will have the power to change the rules when they convene for the convention.

 

I think people are tired of the primary process, and are waiting until November to vote. Most people have already made up their minds. I'm a moderate. Moderates are by definition "swing" voters. My mind is already made up, and this is a first for me, ever.

Trump is in trouble, and is starting to ask people for money.  His campaign is quickly crumbling.

Why doesn't he just write a check?

I don't know!

Just curious…

Hillary has been asking for money for months, has she not?

Trump won the nomination on something like 1/10th the budget of the other Republicans, did he not?

No, it's not.

And yet if I did it in front of cameras during the Republican primary, I'd be the presumptive nominee.

I think the GOP fears a Trump presidency more than anyone, they have a fake republican, rogue candidate that doesn't share their vision. The warning signs are all over the place.

That has nothing to do with my point that the convention could flip the whole process that has taken place. What most people don't understand is that party primaries and conventions were not devised as democratic processes. Most Presidential candidates throughout history were chosen in back rooms.

This has reached new levels of stupidity.
