Yes, I have been saying the same thing. It's really sad too, because they will be making a SCOTUS nomination. I have an idea Clinton is going to make out like a bandit for that alone. I don't think Trump would know where to start in nominating someone.
I believe that if Trump is elected, he will rely very heavily on advisors. Voting for that is an ironic way to 'stick it to the establishment'! If I am correct, that is.
That the problem with lil'dick, he DOESN'T listen to advisors, his kids are the only ones that is controlling him! He doesn't listen, he doesn't have the attention span. The guy that wrote his book said he became bored after just a few minutes of discussion.
Yes, but it is quite evident that he knows he is in over his head, and he cares very much about his image. He will probably have a few go-to people that help him navigate.

Mr. Trump has no experience on national security. Even more important, the character traits he has exhibited during the primary season suggest he would be a poor, even dangerous, commander in chief.
These traits include his obvious need for self-aggrandizement, his overreaction to perceived slights, his tendency to make decisions based on intuition, his refusal to change his views based on new information, his routine carelessness with the facts, his unwillingness to listen to others and his lack of respect for the rule of law.
The dangers that flow from Mr. Trump’s character are not just risks that would emerge if he became president. It is already damaging our national security.
President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia was a career intelligence officer, trained to identify vulnerabilities in an individual and to exploit them. That is exactly what he did early in the primaries. Mr. Putin played upon Mr. Trump’s vulnerabilities by complimenting him. He responded just as Mr. Putin had calculated.
Mr. Putin is a great leader, Mr. Trump says, ignoring that he has killed and jailed journalists and political opponents, has invaded two of his neighbors and is driving his economy to ruin. Mr. Trump has also taken policy positions consistent with Russian, not American, interests — endorsing Russian espionage against the United States, supporting Russia’s annexation of Crimea and giving a green light to a possible Russian invasion of the Baltic States.
In the intelligence business, we would say that Mr. Putin had recruited Mr. Trump as an unwitting agent of the Russian Federation.

Connoisseur said: voting third party does nothing beneficial for the country, and trust me I when I say I wish that wasn't the truth but it is
A third party will never be viable if people think that way. No one gave a socialist from VT a chance, and it took the corruption of the DNC from keeping him from beating her.
Third parties need the confidence that people will vote for them, then you'll get better known candidates.
It would be nice, but I've been around since Eisenhower, and nothing has changed. I see no reason why things will change now except the GOP self-destructing. I see a possibility now for a third party to at least make an impact, but even if one gets elected, they will have no power. If Obama could get nothing done because because of obstructionism, then what would happen to a 3rd party. They would have both sides of the congressional aisle hating his or her guts. It would take many decades to change this, unless we have WWIII and then, the alternative would be as likely to be a fascist as a progressive. More likely the 3rd party would just split the DEM vote and let whatever the feeble remnants of the GOP win. I keep saying this; organization wins elections. Grassroots movements never do.

You forget Bernice also wants to control banking and the energy sector...
If govt control is so great, just imagine if they ran iTunes, it'd be a fucking joke and no one would want it, now let's apply that logic to the most important things in our lives such as healthcare and education, it simply makes no sense

We have a socialized water system. Seems to work pretty well.

Trump must of had an intervention where they told him to shut up and read the Teleprompter. Another uncontrolled week and he might even risk that KKK voter block he has worked so hard for.
Orange Fool's great reading in Detroit laid out his grand plan, which is, to give himself and his family a massive tax cut. Helping out the "working man" by getting lowering the inheritance tax, cutting corporate taxes, and lower taxes for the highest brackets. Yep, that really sounds like it will help the lower middle class, NOT.

Trump is on Hillary's side...he is throwing this election on purpose. Don't forget he was a registered Democrat up to 2008....

Did you listen to his speech? It was about bringing back jobs, you do realize Michigan was been economically destroyed by trade agreements like NAFTA?

Anti-trade is not a Republican position. He sounds like Walter Mondale. Free trade lowers prices, and this helps the lowest on the economic ladder. Amazing how Repubs have ditched their own former positions without a peep.

"Anti-trade is not a Republican position"
Only Bernie and Trump have pointed out the bad trade agreements.
"Free trade lower prices"
It does, but what good is that policy if it destroys the US working class?
"this helps the lowest on the economic ladder"
Really, then why do we have the largest wealth and income inequality in over 80 years? Why are all developed economies across the globe suffering the exact same result?
Let's be honest, BOTH R's and D's support global trade agreements because they are bought and paid for by corporate interests.

Trump is hated by most establishment republicans, he's loved by most hard working Americans, that's not a coincidence

Have you ever seen so many liberals argue how wonderful our trade agreements have turned out for the US middle and lowers classes? Michigan losing almost -50% of their auto jobs is a good thing for workers in that state!
