(9,426 posts)We are the laughingstock of the entire world. Dubya was bad enough, but tRump? He seriously needs a mental evaluation. I wonder why these clowns are drawn to the gop? Frauds must be more comfortable around other frauds.

Now Trump has come onto the scene as the hero of the teabaggers.
You are right about frauds.

(10,237 posts)I believe that they embraced the teabagger movement wholeheartedly. I now refer to them as the Republican/teabagger party. YUCK!
PEACE!

(4,973 posts)make our country the laughing stock no matter who becomes president. We have to get Ryan and other repugs like him voted out. Just because he doesn't like Drump doesn't qualify him to stay in office.

(5,106 posts)Can't he be "impeached" for his blatant violations of his constitutional duties? What would it take? Unlike Ryan, he won't be up for reelection for a few years.

Getting the Turtle impeached will take a LOT of citizens, colleagues, non-profits and NGO's with a LOT of time, money and firsthand knowledge of his dirty doings.
It seems that no matter how many of these dirty pols we and/or Congress get rid of---Foley, Gingrich and the like---more just keep popping up or even reappearing in the crowd behind Trump.

(750 posts)My opinion, and everyone has one
After eight years of Bush Republican politics loaded with a deep commitment to Arabs yet distinguished with profiteering, war and torture was the subterfuge that misrepresented the true nature of what is ascending out into American via the Republican society.
It cannot be denied, now with a lengthy campaign, this neo fascism is flushed out into public view with Trump, that has grown to the core of the Republican party.
This influence is directed on the American mainstream News Media, and corporate franchising is in a rhythm with commercial ad revenues, that clutters common sense with pandemonium to avoid the basic neo fascist identity.
In Examples are to the extreme and far too many to list, yet as far back as Rush Limbaugh singling or inventing out the new American radio hate broadcasting description Feminine-Nazi. Now the common legal message for the law game advertised in commercials If we dont win you dont pay. My favorite commercial lie is AT&T you only pay for services you need with the qualifying bundle, a totally deceptional and unfair.
That is a neo fascist mental in breeding, upbringing or education, especially in social behavior. Our University system in the college arena has for the past century taught the fundamental calculus business Riemann integral. However, what is not taught is if abused will lead to the Riemann-Nazi social behavior via the traditional Master of Business Administration.
After considering calculus can turn into a hateful ascension to a disease mental we know as Riemann-Nazi that will implode within a deliberate social pandemonium if abused needs to have warnings within the Mathematical books for the new century. Just as labels on cigarettes for cancer. Warning if this integral is abused it will lead to fascism, similarly the Trump Republican Algorithm.
Poor Paul.
I'm just sitting here watching all of my predictions, hopes, and dreams of a "conservative" collapse coming true. It's bittersweet. I don't like seeing Trump. On the other hand I'm really hopeful that some real good will come from his destruction of the Republican Party. Which is also confusing, because it kind of makes Trump a hero.
Oh my.

Not sure we will get over this rift b/c they were so angry. What did I do? I was reading the newspaper.
turbinetree
(24,703 posts)and just reading the first 25 pages made me think of Richard Nixon, just like I was reading about some clone.
And I have been hearing from my wife's father , a very successful man, been there and done that kind of individual, and he goes around and says "vote trump" he is going to change this country.
In my mind I keep thinking that these republicans are just like the British tories, they lost the revolution, and those that did not go back to england and stayed here, all they have been doing ever since the revolution , is that they are trying to re-live that war and take down this government , call me crazy, but as history major, it sure looks like it
Well, I couldn't take any more , I looked over at him, and said he (drumpf) is a white nationalist, bigot, racists, narcissistic psychopath, and it is just wrong that this psychopath was even given the means (free airtime) and the time to give everyone his unstable views of his richard nixon paranoia and conspiracy mantra, and your going to vote for him because of--------why?
This is just wrong
My only thing that keeps my sanity, is that when this is all done and he has lost this election, that the DOJ is going to take a really hard look at what he has been doing, because if the book is any indication, then he should have been thrown in jail a long long time ago , he is a fraud .
I have my "Dump Trump" bumper sticker on the back of the car, and I just look at these hillbillies the uninformed, the lock up hillary signs along the roads where I live, and they just stare at me.
I think I am going to go and get some signs made up Trump is a Fraud, Captain Khan was not in 2004.
I just mention the word of Captain. Khan and they have nothing to say---------------my convictions are correct, their deceitful chicken hawk liar has nothing, he is scum.
He sacrificed nothing and he should be treated as such, he has never gone to Arlington, I have been there, and when I walk by the Kennedy grave site, I remember where I was when they were murdered, and the Ryan's and the McConnell's, right along with the drumpster have heartless eyes of the stare of the hypocrites which they are.
I am doing what I can to get Ryan out of office with my money, he is just as dangerous has there party leader he is also a liar, he has never said anything with his double talk speaking, he still sides with the drumpfster and everyday the MSM should be asking him ------why? Back him in the corner, they are giving him a pass just like they gave the leader of there party-------he gives non answers
Again lets support Ryan challenger

(581 posts)Listening to Speaker Ryan tell this supporter after his win, how he wanted to accomplishment so much as Speaker, but actually has done nothing. But NOTHING is his plan along with McConnell
rladdi
(581 posts)questioned this guy as to his motives. Most Americans would get a knock on their door. They could never say what Trump says and he says it world wide to his crazy.
