Yep, a narcissist will do what he thinks is the way to go, the hell with the US Constitution.

Rational.

But immaterial in the current environment, unfortunately.

Kaslin, I’m guessing the moderator who immediately moved your post to Chat, and gave it the dismissive “Cheese, Moose, Sister” topic label—I’m guessing that person is a Trump supporter. Same thing happened to an article I posted recently that was critical of Trump. It seems that it’s OK to be against some candidates but not The One.

“Obama isn’t running.”

Hearing the hyperboles and seeing the fanatical cultists, I wonder whether it is Obama or is it Trump.

People are blaming Bush for Trump, but really it’s Obama. He was the one who set all of these patterns and established revenge and grievance as the means of controlling and motivating people. Yet the group he stoked up and weaponized, blacks, is actually worse off than it was before his arrival in the scene.

I think the white voters who seem to believe that Trump represents their turn to get revenge will be equally disappointed, because just as Obama was using blacks, so Trump is using whites - for nothing but to get power. And he’ll dump them, except, of course, for the media celebrities, as soon as he gets what he wants. Obama did the same thing - the only blacks he cares about are people like JayZ or other mega-rich entertainment personalities.

The real fault of the GOP is that they honestly didn’t know how to respond to Obama’s unconstitutional acts because he acted so fast and so aggressively that by the time they even thought about it, it was too late to mount a unified opposition and he had consolidated his power. So now the Obama pattern is established and, as the author says, it is going to be very difficult if not impossible to go back to being a republic with a constitutional government.

The Donald will not just have a pen and a phone, he will also have Congress.

Make America Great Again!

I am watching the Hillary Clinton “victory speech” right now. She is telling us all about how she will unite us all, how she will not build walls but bridges. How we need her because of so many reasons - after 8 years of Obama. But - we need more jobs that a family can live on. I guess Obama forgot to give us that.

So, she is the next Obama, 4 more years of Obama. More illegal aliens flooding in, more refugees. No wall. Open borders.

And these idiots are saying Trump is the next Obama?

We will have another Obama, for sure, if anyone listens to these worms with personal agendas. Trump IS the Republican base. They hate the Republican base.

Trump has achieved more in the REAL WORLD MAIN STREET ECONOMY of America than all presidents combined, from George Washington to Burack Obuma. Obuma could not run a hot dog stand at profit by himself.

Here's Trump giving his support to the traitor-in-chief on his worldwide apology tour...

TRUMP [on the Larry King Show (April 15, 2009), referring to the then newly elected communist president (Obama)]: "Well, I really like him. I think that he's working very hard. He's trying to rebuild our reputation throughout the world. I mean, we really have lost a lot of reputation in the world. The previous administration [GW Bush] was a total disaster, a total catastrophe."

Congress makes the laws, the president carries them out

***********************************

The fact is that of the past Presidents since the last amnesty, the one who deported the most illegal aliens was Slick Willy.

We haven’t had a President that will carry them out is the problem and Trump says he will. Rubio says he wants new laws to benefit the illegal aliens. Until recently Cruz was saying we needed to secure the border (duh) and then talk about what to do about the illegal aliens. Enforcing the law means deporting them, nothing to talk about.

“Donald Trump Is The Next Barack Obama”

Since it means RUNNING OVER CONGRESS to build the wall and deport the Illegals...then I’m all for Trump being the next Obama.

Meet the Press, 1999:

Russert asked Trump about gay marriage. Trump didn't want to comment on it, but said he has no problem with gays in the military.

He explained, "I've lived in New York City and Manhattan all my life, okay? So my views are a little bit different than if I lived in Iowa."

When Russert asked Trump about abortion, he said he's "pro-choice in every respect" and again cited his New York background, which he said has a "different attitude" from most of the country

October, 2013:

Fred Dicker: What is it going to mean for Donald Trump to have Bill de Blasio as [New York City] Mayor? "

Donald Trump: "He's a smart guy that knows what's going on really big league and I think he is not going to want to destroy New York."

(Voice Over: That was Donald Trump a little over two years ago, endorsing [Marxist] Bill de Blasio for New York Mayor)

Donald Trump: "I think pretty strongly that he'll end up being a good mayor, maybe a very good mayor."

(Voice Over: De Blasio ran on class warfare, sanctuary cities and ending stop and frisk. De Blasio's sided with looters and cop killers against the police, with teachers unions against schoolchildren and with PC liberals to let the homeless run wild on city streets)

Donald Trump: "I think he is going to want to make New York great. ..."

One obvious difference is that Barack Obama hates freedom, hates Western Civilization and hates this country most of all.

There’s no evidence that any of that applies to Donald Trump.

Aug 2015:

Trump told CBN's "The Brody File" [in April 2011] that gay people were "tremendous" and that "there can be no discrimination against gays."

http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/donald-trump-2016s-most-lgbt-friendly-republican

_________________________________________________________

Aug 2015

"It's not the first time Trump has taken a pro-LGBT stance. As far back as 2000, Trump was advocating the idea of amending the 1964 Civil Rights Act to prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation - something the currently-pending Equality Act would basically do if lawmakers on Capitol Hill ever decided to pass it.

"Amending the Civil Rights Act would grant the same protection to gay people that we give to other Americans - it’s only fair," Trump told The Advocate in February, 2000.

In the same interview, Trump said he favored "a very strong domestic-partnership law" that guaranteed same-sex couples equal legal rights as married, heterosexual couples.

Trump also said he believed Don't Ask, Don't Tell - the military's then-ban on openly gay service members - had "clearly failed."

Trump's spokesperson, Hope Hicks, did not immediately respond to msnbc's request for comment on where the presidential candidate stood on the Equality Act. But his longstanding support for ending discrimination against gay people has been well documented. ..."
