I know. I know. "Trump is flawed" the critics say. "He is a clown." "He is a buffoon." "He's divorced...twice." "He has business bankruptcies." Yes all true. And Reagan was a failed B-movie actor who played second fiddle to a chimp. Heck, Reagan had a failed Vegas lounge act that closed in a week. Reagan was rejected by United Artists executives to PLAY the part of a president. Two years later he was Governor of California. Then he went onto become the man polls show is regarded as our greatest modern president. Could Donald Trump be "Reagan- Part Duex?"

Half right.
What’s Bull Worth?
Look in the article.
Fourth paragraph.
Remember that 1998 movie starring Warren Beatty as U.S. Senator Bullworth?I don't either, but that's who the author is referring to.
$1.50 per pound.
A blog pimp is worth less.
I'm surprised more FReepers aren't just a little infatuated with the idea of a man that has true freedom ... the kind a lot of money and success allows coupled with a free-thinking, I don't give a shit WHAT you say attitude ... because WE, as a political entity and faction, are equally (in our minds and hearts, anyway) as rebellious, or truthful or ...
No ... the donald is worthy of notice and attention, if for no other reason than he could very well be one of the rallyers ... calling for a bunch o'guys to meet him down at the wharf ... put on your best indian costume and bring your tomahawk and we're gonn'a .....
I keep asking myself if it would be better to have Trump as president rather than Hillary or Jeb... I keep deciding I’d take Trump over either of those two.
It is most probable that Hillary will win, the next possibility is Jeb.... My first choice is for Cruz to win but it seems unlikely.
My preferences are
1-Cruz
2-Walker
3-Trump
I will give a sigh of relief if any of the three wins.
My choice in the last election was Gingrich, a flawed but powerful man that would have changed this nation for the better.
IMO, Jeb cannot defeat Hillary in the general. If Jeb gets the nod I hope Trump mounts a third party run.... Trump is flawed but better than Hillary.
These days, we bitch about Dems, we bitch about Repubs, we bitch and moan and whine about everything political.
I see Trump as a breath of fresh air, somebody who won't be bought (are there any politicians that haven't been bought at one time or another?) Personally, when I listen to ANY politician these days, my mind is thinking "this is bullshit":.. I like Trump in that he tells it like it is. He doesn't attempt to tell me what I want to hear, he verbalizes what I'm thinking, and doesn't spew a load of politician BS.
Am VERY skeptical of Trump, but still - have always longed for a candidate who is not afraid to say what he REALLY thinks, which hopefully/probably might sound just a little like what a LOT of us are thinking...something kinda like the TRUTH : /
That, added to the harsh wake-up call of the Cruz 0bamatrade debacle, I find myself; quite unhappily; back at square one : |
Dear Lord, please share Your strength,

The last time a populist non politician won something significant: Jesse Ventura.
Trump is a f@rt in the wind and a distraction at best.
Either that, or else Trump is the only politician anywhere, who is focused on the real issues.
One of those two.
I tend toward the second, myself.
he’s bull - something
Oh look.
The usual suspects make fun of Reagan as part of the Trump Campaign.
Brilliant of you to post that.
YES!!!
The author forgot to mention Reagan was married twice.
I think he is still the only divorced President.

It’s like “sponge worthy”.
