Actually, after last night's debate YES. Yes, I would prefer Trump over any of the idiots that I witnessed last night on the democrat-socialist debate. After listening to them squabble over who is the most socialist and who is going to give the most free stuff, Trump suddenly looks smarter than he did the day before.

Sorry, I should have made myself clearer - I was referring to "intelligent, rational people".

I honestly cannot understand how otherwise intelligent, rational people can support a Trump candidacy. He is a totally empty suit, a self promoter, and canny marketer who has built a following based on marketing slogans that have no substance, but seemingly resonate with a large portion of people's basest instincts. Please tell me how he will build a wall across the southern border AND MAKE MEXICO PAY FOR IT? Just as small example of taking a crazy simplistic idea, that appeals to zealots, and doubling down on it, sending into the twilight zone. Would you really feel good about the prospect of a president trump conducting foreign diplomacy? There are so many things wrong with this man as a human, much less as the prospective leader of the free world, that I cannot take this phenomenon seriously.

Personal Best Regards:

You are ahead of yourself with the wall. How is going to sell the wall to the Senate? The Democrats know that immigration reform will never go past the wall. There will be no second step. Therefore, not approving the wall will be their leverage for a broader immigration bill. The problem that you have with Trump is you are educated.

I think he plans upon placing high tariffs on US companies manufacturing their products in Mexico entering back into the US. Also, he mentioned sales tax on US companies that ship their goods directly from Mexico to foreign countries. So, he wants to make it more expensive to produce there rather than in the US. The threat of losing manufacturing jobs will be a greater loss to Mexico than paying for a wall. He is also talking about doing something like that to China. What the hell you think he would do, if these counties nationalized US companies manufacturing plants in their countries, if he pulls the stunts he is talking about?

Let's see.......a lawyer or a successful businessman.

Which one would I chose to fix our debt crisis? A lawyer wants to argue law, find cracks in laws, change the laws to protect the guilty.

A successful businessman that finances his own campaign and is not in debt/owe anyone or any foreign country (as is the case with Hilary). A businessman that knows about commerce and assets.

Hillary is promising free stuff that will enslave America in debt. No means of paying for the free stuff.
Trump is promising to free America FROM slavery and make us respected in the world again, as well as powerful and financially stable.

IMO, not a very difficult choice. But, on the other hand liberals only think of themselves and the present, not America's future. Liberals are very selfish.

This businessman will probably have to deal with 400+ lawyers, that are in Congress. He is use to getting his own way. It won't be that way dealing with Congress. His name might sell in the business world, but it won't mean a damn in DC.

He is out there making promises that he can't meet. He is just saying what people want to hear. He is nothing but noise. His childish faces , and arm waving will be look at as what they are a clown's act.

Why don't you backup this "free stuff" comment with actual facts. What has been given away in the last 7+ years other than items that were directly related to the great recession? Free stuff are just so many empty words.

Your entitled to your opinion. You have nothing to back up your theory though, so that makes it nothing much more than a wish.

"Free stuff?" "Promises of free stuff" is what I believe the quote should be if you are asking. Like all the other liberals/socialist candidates, free stuff would include their Free Health Care, free college, free contraception, gov subsidized abortion, etc., etc. That is the liberal bribe, like Obama's "free stash."

I knew immediately that it wasn't authored by you. His understanding of English was suspect at the onset. It was obvious that he hadn't taken full advantage of his FREE public education. But, a troll is a troll. :Screen_of_Death:

Why is it the verbiage used to disparage is always descriptive of Obama?
That does not make sense except for one way street blindness!
