OT: I'm kind of not surprised at the results to be honest. I think Trump is pretty much secured for the Republican party. As much as people hate to admit that, he's just leading the polls despite a lot of media against him (which I think is actually helping his case.) Hillary and Sanders, I believe is going to continue to fluctuate between the two, but in the end, I wouldn't doubt it Hillary wins the Democratic party, because of those super delegates.
Something tells me, a bunch of democrats dreamed that up.
#MakingAmericaGreatAgain
Well... yeah. Obviously a bunch of Democrats dreamed it up.
Republicans aren't going to leave America if Trump wins.
On topic: I'm disappointed that Bernie didn't win the Democratic side, but he is steadily catching up in national polls so I hope that he will eventually beat Hillary.
If it's Bernie vs Trump then it will literally be a case of affirming my hope for the future of humanity or condemning it to a muddy hole somewhere in a dark forest.

I can't tell if you're voting for Donald Trump or Ronald Reagan, considering his slogan in 1980 was actually 'Let's Make America Great Again'
Trump took the 'Let's' part off it for his campaign because Mr. Personality wasn't creative enough to think of his own.
And you want a reality TV show host who is a verifiable sexist, possible rapist, will try to force people into giving up their land for his gain, and will leave a job unfinished half way through because he didn't get his own way, running the most powerful country in the world?
Trump is a joke which went too far.
SELU wrote Where was the fire that John Kerry(democrat) got for using "Let America Be America Again" which is pretty much the same thing.
Way back in 2004 I would presume. This is about Donald Trump. If I was on the internet posting about John Kerry I would have brought it up, but I'm not, so I didn't.
And if people didn't bring it up back in 2004 then I don't blame them. Donald Trump is portrayed as a straight talker who tells it how it is and has views on things which aren't politically correct, yet he still can't come up with his own slogan to encapsulate all of that? It's embarrassing, that's why people bring it up for Trump.
As far as I know, John Kerry didn't have that kind of attitude in his campaign, so why would people bring it up?
To say Donald Trump is sexist is your opinion. To call him a rapist? That is totally invalid and very ignorant/hateful for you to say.
You think I used words like 'Verifiable' and 'Possible' for fun? No. I used them so that if someone like you replied, I could do this:
Sexism: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Possible rapist: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Eminent Domain is needed in this country. Nothing would be able to be built if it was not a thing.
You obviously don't know what I'm referring to. You probably should have asked before assuming.
When Trump tried to build his golf course in Scotland he said that a house which could be seen from the course was an eye-sore and tried to buy it from the owner so that he could have it knocked down.
When the owner refused Trump tried to get a compulsory purchase from the Scottish Government. Now this is legal, but it must 'be a compelling case in the public interest.' Trump thought that building a golf course for rich people to come and have a nice day out without eye-sores on the horizon was more important to the public interest than farmers making a living, and staying in their homes which some of them had been in for their entire lives.
He then continued to bully them by infringing on their land and insulting them in media interviews.
This is not the type of person you want running a country.
People like you need to get facts and get off the young bandwagon of hating Trump. Obviously he is not a joke because if people thought he was, he would have dropped out of the race by now and would not be the predicted Republican nominee.
Donald Trump running for president is a joke to anyone with a sense of humor.
Trump supporters are, on average, old and uneducated. [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
That is why Trump does so well. He speaks bluntly and vaguely, letting the audience fill in the gaps with whatever suits their own opinions.
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
People are sick and tired of established candidates like Hitlary and Cruz or Rubio. And the American public is damn tired of the past 8 years of hell. That is why Trump is doing so well. He is Anti-establish and has a great vision for America for the next 4 years.
If someone being anti-establishment is a good enough reason to vote for them then all of Trump's supporters should be voting for Bernie Sanders.
It doesn't matter where I link information from, you're going to call it biased. Unless it's from FOX News, but of course they wouldn't run a story about Trump being a possible rapist.
So unless you want to call all of these sites biased and simply blow off the fact that this event happened then I'm really not the one being ignorant here, am I?

Your point about the Windfarm really isn't a point at all.
1) He still tried to buy the houses off farmers.
I used a Youtube video for that because it actually gave you their reactions and points of view in their own words. But of course 'You used a Youtube video, LOL' is the default response when you can't argue against them.
2) He tried to stop them building a windfarm for the sake of his golf course having a nice view.
He went against sustainable energy in favor of a nice view. Yes, this is such a great man who cares so much about the well-being of this planet.
Sanders is not liked by the establishment in the face of Hillary Clinton. She has raised $26 million for the DNC and state Democratic parties this campaign. Bernie Sanders has raised $1,000.
He doesn't take big money and he doesn't have a Super PAC.
He is anti-establishment simply because he is saying 'I'm not taking your money, so I don't owe you anything.'
In your mind anyone who criticizes Trump must be on some bandwagon. Maybe the 'bandwagon' exists because Trump continuously makes it so easy to criticize him.
He's a bad person who should not be in charge of the most powerful country on this planet.
If you want to reply then feel free to do so, but I won't respond.
My opinion of Trump will not change until he himself comes out publicly and apologizes for all of his sexist remarks, changes pretty much all of his policy positions and can clear up the whole rape allegation scandal without resorting to the argument that 'Marital rape isn't illegal.'
Otherwise I will remain firmly on the bandwagon, right up until the moment that he ends his campaign, or for the 4 years he is president.
It's sure gonna be great to see your tears on November 8th when Trump gets elected. No, wait, I don't need to wait that long, you're gonna be crying when Shillary steals the nomination from the Sandman.
You used the word 'Steal.'
Are you saying that Sanders should get the nomination... or what?

Off topic:
Guys, having differing opinions from someone is fine, but personal attacks and flaming is going to be watched closely here and as always, please remember:
You're doing the same thing as SELU.
You're focusing on the sources, rather than the fact that they are all telling a verified story, this is common knowledge about Donald Trump now.
I could literally post hundreds of sources reporting the story that Donald Trump raped his ex-wife. The ones I posted are the first 5 which came up in a Google search which consists of everything from Time to CNN to BusinessInsider to [enter news source here.]
You've picked two things out of that sexism article to try and refute the message of the entire article.
You can argue that some of these things aren't sexist individually, yes. But when you take them all together it's quite obvious that Donald Trump doesn't hold women in high regard.
Alluding to Megyn Kelly being on her period because she asked him questions that he didn't like.
Saying: "You know, it doesn't really matter what [the media] write as long as you've got a young and beautiful piece of ass."
"It's certainly not groundbreaking news that the early victories by the women on 'The Apprentice' were, to a very large extent, dependent on their sex appeal."
"I mean, we could say politically correct that look doesn't matter, but the look obviously matters, like you wouldn't have your job if you weren't beautiful." Trump said to a female jouranlist.
Even in response to one that you tried to refute, he would rather call a woman ugly than respond to her criticism of him.
And telling a female contestant on the Apprentice that it would be a pretty picture to see her drop down to her knees.
This is obviously not a man who thinks very highly of women, so it is too far to call him sexist? I wouldn't say so.
It's a bit of a strange coincidence that when a man criticizes him, he goes after his ratings, or his family, or his policy positions in rare occasions. But when it's a woman he goes after her appearance, or her wealth, or makes weird sexual gestures towards her.
The guy is a blatant misogynist. Whether he realizes it or not.
It's not childish to point out the fact that the majority of Trump supporters are uneducated [as in they didn't attend college, dropped out of school, etc.] and old [as in over 65].
I'm not just parading about screaming that Trump supporters are stupid.
If that's childish then why do respected pollsters bother doing it? It's to give perspective.

To me, five articles from five different websites, all of which are popular, is good enough reasoning to warrant my own search and not just dismiss something as 'Well those sources are individually crap so I don't believe this story that they are all reporting on using the same information.'

OT: I'm kind of not surprised at the results to be honest. I think Trump is pretty much secured for the Republican party. As much as people hate to admit that, he's just leading the polls despite a lot of media against him (which I think is actually helping his case.) Hillary and Sanders, I believe is going to continue to fluctuate between the two, but in the end, I wouldn't doubt it Hillary wins the Democratic party, because of those super delegates.
Something tells me, a bunch of democrats dreamed that up.
#MakingAmericaGreatAgain
Well... yeah. Obviously a bunch of Democrats dreamed it up.
Republicans aren't going to leave America if Trump wins.
On topic: I'm disappointed that Bernie didn't win the Democratic side, but he is steadily catching up in national polls so I hope that he will eventually beat Hillary.
If it's Bernie vs Trump then it will literally be a case of affirming my hope for the future of humanity or condemning it to a muddy hole somewhere in a dark forest.

I can't tell if you're voting for Donald Trump or Ronald Reagan, considering his slogan in 1980 was actually 'Let's Make America Great Again'
Trump took the 'Let's' part off it for his campaign because Mr. Personality wasn't creative enough to think of his own.
And you want a reality TV show host who is a verifiable sexist, possible rapist, will try to force people into giving up their land for his gain, and will leave a job unfinished half way through because he didn't get his own way, running the most powerful country in the world?
Trump is a joke which went too far.
SELU wrote Where was the fire that John Kerry(democrat) got for using "Let America Be America Again" which is pretty much the same thing.
Way back in 2004 I would presume. This is about Donald Trump. If I was on the internet posting about John Kerry I would have brought it up, but I'm not, so I didn't.
And if people didn't bring it up back in 2004 then I don't blame them. Donald Trump is portrayed as a straight talker who tells it how it is and has views on things which aren't politically correct, yet he still can't come up with his own slogan to encapsulate all of that? It's embarrassing, that's why people bring it up for Trump.
As far as I know, John Kerry didn't have that kind of attitude in his campaign, so why would people bring it up?
To say Donald Trump is sexist is your opinion. To call him a rapist? That is totally invalid and very ignorant/hateful for you to say.
You think I used words like 'Verifiable' and 'Possible' for fun? No. I used them so that if someone like you replied, I could do this:
Sexism: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Possible rapist: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Eminent Domain is needed in this country. Nothing would be able to be built if it was not a thing.
You obviously don't know what I'm referring to. You probably should have asked before assuming.
When Trump tried to build his golf course in Scotland he said that a house which could be seen from the course was an eye-sore and tried to buy it from the owner so that he could have it knocked down.
When the owner refused Trump tried to get a compulsory purchase from the Scottish Government. Now this is legal, but it must 'be a compelling case in the public interest.' Trump thought that building a golf course for rich people to come and have a nice day out without eye-sores on the horizon was more important to the public interest than farmers making a living, and staying in their homes which some of them had been in for their entire lives.
He then continued to bully them by infringing on their land and insulting them in media interviews.
This is not the type of person you want running a country.
People like you need to get facts and get off the young bandwagon of hating Trump. Obviously he is not a joke because if people thought he was, he would have dropped out of the race by now and would not be the predicted Republican nominee.
Donald Trump running for president is a joke to anyone with a sense of humor.
Trump supporters are, on average, old and uneducated. [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
That is why Trump does so well. He speaks bluntly and vaguely, letting the audience fill in the gaps with whatever suits their own opinions.
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
People are sick and tired of established candidates like Hitlary and Cruz or Rubio. And the American public is damn tired of the past 8 years of hell. That is why Trump is doing so well. He is Anti-establish and has a great vision for America for the next 4 years.
If someone being anti-establishment is a good enough reason to vote for them then all of Trump's supporters should be voting for Bernie Sanders.
It doesn't matter where I link information from, you're going to call it biased. Unless it's from FOX News, but of course they wouldn't run a story about Trump being a possible rapist.
So unless you want to call all of these sites biased and simply blow off the fact that this event happened then I'm really not the one being ignorant here, am I?

Your point about the Windfarm really isn't a point at all.
1) He still tried to buy the houses off farmers.
I used a Youtube video for that because it actually gave you their reactions and points of view in their own words. But of course 'You used a Youtube video, LOL' is the default response when you can't argue against them.
2) He tried to stop them building a windfarm for the sake of his golf course having a nice view.
He went against sustainable energy in favor of a nice view. Yes, this is such a great man who cares so much about the well-being of this planet.
Sanders is not liked by the establishment in the face of Hillary Clinton. She has raised $26 million for the DNC and state Democratic parties this campaign. Bernie Sanders has raised $1,000.
He doesn't take big money and he doesn't have a Super PAC.
He is anti-establishment simply because he is saying 'I'm not taking your money, so I don't owe you anything.'
In your mind anyone who criticizes Trump must be on some bandwagon. Maybe the 'bandwagon' exists because Trump continuously makes it so easy to criticize him.
He's a bad person who should not be in charge of the most powerful country on this planet.
If you want to reply then feel free to do so, but I won't respond.
My opinion of Trump will not change until he himself comes out publicly and apologizes for all of his sexist remarks, changes pretty much all of his policy positions and can clear up the whole rape allegation scandal without resorting to the argument that 'Marital rape isn't illegal.'
Otherwise I will remain firmly on the bandwagon, right up until the moment that he ends his campaign, or for the 4 years he is president.

You shouldn't need me to tell you that the Gawker is not a reputable site to use as a source. All of their stories are sensational gossip and rumors from the entertainment industry. Just read their slogan...

Calling someone ignorant or uneducated because of who they support is also a childish thing to do, cut that out.
Off topic:
Guys, having differing opinions from someone is fine, but personal attacks and flaming is going to be watched closely here and as always, please remember:
You're doing the same thing as SELU.
You're focusing on the sources, rather than the fact that they are all telling a verified story, this is common knowledge about Donald Trump now.
I could literally post hundreds of sources reporting the story that Donald Trump raped his ex-wife. The ones I posted are the first 5 which came up in a Google search which consists of everything from Time to CNN to BusinessInsider to [enter news source here.]
You've picked two things out of that sexism article to try and refute the message of the entire article.
You can argue that some of these things aren't sexist individually, yes. But when you take them all together it's quite obvious that Donald Trump doesn't hold women in high regard.
Alluding to Megyn Kelly being on her period because she asked him questions that he didn't like.
Saying: "You know, it doesn't really matter what [the media] write as long as you've got a young and beautiful piece of ass."
"It's certainly not groundbreaking news that the early victories by the women on 'The Apprentice' were, to a very large extent, dependent on their sex appeal."
"I mean, we could say politically correct that look doesn't matter, but the look obviously matters, like you wouldn't have your job if you weren't beautiful." Trump said to a female jouranlist.
Even in response to one that you tried to refute, he would rather call a woman ugly than respond to her criticism of him.
And telling a female contestant on the Apprentice that it would be a pretty picture to see her drop down to her knees.
This is obviously not a man who thinks very highly of women, so it is too far to call him sexist? I wouldn't say so.
It's a bit of a strange coincidence that when a man criticizes him, he goes after his ratings, or his family, or his policy positions in rare occasions. But when it's a woman he goes after her appearance, or her wealth, or makes weird sexual gestures towards her.

Popular =/= informative or unbiased. Sure I could rip a story about Area 51 being taken over by North korea from hundreds of different conspiracy sites, does that add any legitimacy to my claims?
But I don't want to argue or debate silly things like that. Rape and other forms of physical harassment are inexcusable and those who are proven guilty should 100% be held accountable. However, I see so much swirling around of "Hey this could have happened" or "This probably happened", while there has been no certainty or proof of guilt so far.
Most arguments I hear against trump go along the lines of "He's a mean person", or "He's just an asshole". True, I think he's an asshole. But who said our president has to be a nice person? Bush seemed like a decent person and nice guy, then he went and invaded two countries and started a decade long, trillion dollar, war. Obama is probably the biggest youth supported president and too cool for school kind of guy in the oval office ever, but Drone strikes, and civilian casualties as a result of drones and terrorist activity, are higher than ever ( [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] ). If you don't agree with someone's policies and all, that's fine. Support whoever you want, and vote for who you want. That's why we aren't Russia. But using scandals and shock value headlines, and taking them for face value, and using them as a baseline for opinions on candidates isn't really fair.

You're right. We should leave the candidates to attack each other on personal levels. That seems to be all that they are doing this election cycle anyway.
I suppose my reasoning was based on whether or not it's more likely that an asshole is going to be an asshole president, or a good person is going to become an asshole whilst they are president.
I chose the former as much more likely, but like you've pointed out in the cases of George Bush and Barack Obama, you simply can't tell.
I'll continue to go against Trump, but I'll try to gear my thinking more towards the policy side of things... as opposed to his horrific haircut.
