He is the Republican party's id. He represents their misogyny, their nativism, and their worship of the wealthy. Let them clean up their own mess...
Please carry on...

The paranoid nutters who like him have gotten wise to the "smart people" who are trying to make Trump look dumb.
You have to admit, Fox gave it a good try. Each question put to him was really a question-as-attack.
I'm really disappointed they didn't give him a crack at the God question. That would have been pure gold.

The media, largely controlled by four giant corporations, feels it is their right to pick "their guy", just as much as any other huge company.
The only difference is the media companies directly influence voters thru their business operations. Other companies must invest cash from their business operations in, lol, media.
