The more I listen to the other candidates, the more I hear them catering to the liberal voter and it stinks!. Trump is not going to kiss any a?? to get the job. If he doesn't get the job then it's no skin off his back. He doesn't need the money, and that makes him even more appealing.

You express yourself very logically and smartly, and I respect that. I agree with almost everything you have said on here. But, I am leaning more and more toward this crass man as my possible choice. I will listen to the debates, and I still have plenty of time to make my choice. But, maybe we need a hard core businessman that takes no prisoners, instead of some of these others that have too much liberal luggage that they seem to want to carry around with them.
I am not for legalizing the criminals that invade our country (illegal aliens).
I think we need to take a harder line on any allies that we deal with and subsidize, when we need their assistance quelling uprisings.
I want to see more hard core demanding from our government toward other countries, than cowering diplomacy.
Compromise is when both sides give and neither are totally satisfied. We haven't seen that in the past six years. I want to see a bunch of our congressional representatives go home crying.

At any rate, the elections are a long way off, so I will check all the candidates out real well, before committing.

I don't like Trump, but if none of the other candidates start showing some grit, I'll pass on them.
