Whether Trump is a full-fledged racist or not is debatable but at the very least he's a bigot. He does not belong in the white house, period.
I have no doubt in my mind that if Trump were to become president it would be a total disaster and not just for America.

He's just trying to get votes and looking like he actually believes the things he says. Nobody knows what he'll actually do in the White House.

And this is a concern. What's his actual stance on anything? Trump supporters are so easily swayed by a master showman that they fill in their own blanks of what they think he'll do.

Guess planned Parenthood's history has

Been lost upon you...

Go see da legislation liberals want to

Pass in NY and how late they want women

To be able to abort a kid...

Abortion is touchy, but it has nothing to do with eugenics... I frown upon late stage abortions because it's simply irresponsible and science points in neither direction.

But some of y'all need to calm down with the personal attacks, it's not a likeminded cult.

U notice i aint say 1 thing personal right?

I cover politics in a very meta way, thats y i know i da labels..its very much a sport

If u watch all sides...simplily shouting

Down opposition by name calling is VERY

Rampant on da left side of da spectrum..

Now u can respect my indifference to social

Issue (except later abortion...monsters)

without getting personal like some have already gotten or what?

Now if u really think Trump is a racist then

You sippin da left wing talking point narrative... Remember that doesn't always

Work...im an independent, turns me off.

I was defending you in that last one, but I do disagree with your views.

I'll take delegates for Bernie from anywhere but it is a little embarrassing win so big in Utah and Alaska. Can my man win a in a State with two or more professional sports teams?

Ninja go hard for da drumpf.

People think drumpf is a sexist/racist because of what comes out of his mouth.

If you listen to his speeches, read his tweets/re-tweets, and look at his followers that show up to his rallies anyone with half a brain can come to that conclusion.

When the media was taking him as a joke minorities were already expressing their dislike for him.

Didn't need a news pundit to point that out.

This i can subscribe to...we are charting

Unkown waters...im optimisic for a non politician to potentially win da white house..

Outta everyone his hands arent tied to

Special interests, and he's a businessman

That's ran a something... Hillary bought &

Paid for crony capitalist...da irony is

She's gonna actually make far left even

Angrier than da ppl that said "Obama ain't

Go farther".

Let's be honest here though

Do we really take someone's opinion seriously

If they type like dis on da regular

Butchering da English language

And any possiblity of a coherent discussion along with it













B

Because that somehow puts you a pedestal. I know people who can't even read and have twice the brains as some cats I know. Not siding with ninja, I don't like any of the GOP bar Kasich, but that's not enough to dismiss his opinion.

Kasich gets things done, like making it harder for females to get abortions.

 

[rexanglorum]

I know, I know, just using some hyperbole. Based on the returns thus far, he will get the Seahawks and the Mariners in his column as well.

I figured your were just exaggerated brah. But with Bernie's campaign being like a candle in the wind right now, I'm trying to stay as positive

I'm in front the screen looking at the result, hoping Bernie makes Clinton not viable in one of these big states like

My abortion stance is complicated, I disagree with late stage, but before 4 months I'm all in. I have realized his scaling back (see 1st FNC debate on Gay Rights) and now. But he is sensible in my eyes, and a lot of his ideas align with my views. Not everybody here is a progressive, and that's perfectly fine.

I can't tell if the petition was filed in seriousness or as satire. Either way, it's great and will expose the hypocrisy of the Republican party. I see you, John Oliver.


imagine this passes and then the party faces a brokered convention. brilliant! I feel like Obama has been plotting this for years.

California, even if he might be mathematically eliminated by then, we are getting some gar-bage time dunks in this June. California in the summer will literally and figuratively feel the Bern. Staples Center should be nice and empty by early may so Bernie is welcome to do some rallies, have some bacon wrapped hotdogs and do a Training Day self guided tour.

Then he can go North and kick it with Steph and the guys who founded Tumblr. He's got to appeal to ALL 54 genders.

I'd do it. But open carry is really a symbolic thing. I have an HK91 for fun, but open carry is sorta dumb. It's unwieldy, and basically like rocking the hangtag on your J's.

""We are all too familiar with the mass carnage that can occur when citizens are denied their basic God-given rights to carry handguns or assault weapons in public," the petition reads."

This definitely sounds like trolling to me

This is ******* dangerous if it goes down

I can see the headlines the day after; 'RNC Massacre, Hundreds Dead, Thousands Wounded: Trump Says Cruz Supporters Shot First'

A week ago I was watching historical coverage of past RNC. They were talking about ones that have been volatile expecting the one this summer to be the biggest. I think the 1920s and earlier where fistfights broke out

Guns, plus major political disputes, plus alcohol, plus angry white men, plus guys with chips on their shoulders, plus guys with small penises. This will make those circa 2000 BET award shows look like a picnic.

A joke that has gone on for far too long.
He has some support here, mainly from extreme-right groups and outspoken racists.
Overall he's very hated though and we're worried about the possibility of him becoming president. Our politicians have strongly condemned his statements, particularly his views on muslims.
Our main news station is considered very neutral and unbiased but I've seen the news anchors struggle to contain their laughter while reporting on the buffoonery that goes on in the GOP debates.
