When anyone says “pretty much take for granted” you know they’re just blathering

“xenophobic, anti-capitalist, vaguely militarist, pro-state, and consistently anti-Semitic.

Sounds more like democrats overall to me.

Looks like Godwin's law is creeping into the anti-Trump narrative.

The GOP wants to know who are the 40% of their voters that like Trump, not because they are happy about it....

Trump supporters are a product of lies and deceit by the career politicians. We gave them the House of Rep in 2010. We gave them Senate in 2014. What did we get? Nothing, Zero, Zilch, Nada.

It is time to elect a candidate who is not controlled by rich donors.

It’s amazing how the pointy head pundits and writers don’t have a freaking clue what’s going on, or if they do won’t acknowledge the prevailing fact that a majority of the American electorate is PISSED OFF with the political class! Trump has tapped into a mass of people who are fed up and won’t take it anymore from Republicans and Democrats. Geez, you don’t need a political science degree or statistical analysis to know why Trump is resonating out there with Republicans, Democrats, and Independents.

"... a European-style nationalist party that is “xenophobic, anti-capitalist, vaguely militarist, pro-state, and consistently anti-Semitic...."

You mean like Democrats?

All woman, 50+,0 kids+ married
Would vote for him on the policies he states (loudly)
Uncertain about him as he attempted this before and bowed out
Never cared for the man, his name, his TV show...however he does have the pull of the name, celebrity (etc) which some will grab no matter what party he represents

At this point, crawling on glass would NOT make me any less likely to vote for him. No politician but a man who carries a big stick and uses it frequently..that is a man who actually could make our country GREAT AGAIN, especially with more Conservatives in Congress and holding offices around the country, across the fruited plains.

There be no tykes from this union...but to KEEP the AMERICA I know and love in order to pass on to future generations is most important to me. GO DONALD!

Which assumes that he is resonating with Dems and Independents. Not sure there's much (if any) evidence of that...

The classic-liberal wing of the Republican party, of which I considered myself a member until fairly recently, needs to acknowledge that liberty, on which this country was founded, has zero chance of surviving as a significant force in a country controlled by non-whites, who consistently and overwhelmingly report to posters that they favor a large government that provides cradle to grave services.

The libertarians have always said, “Let the third world settle here! After all, liberty means freedom of movement too. We will just get these folks to read a little Madison and Ayn Rand, and presto, they’ll come over the winning team. We are right, and we can convince anyone of it, no matter their skin color.”

Well, how long do we give the libertarians to work this magic before we declare this experiment a failure? 150 years from civil war and black voters in America voted for the statist presidential candidate by a 95% margin in 2012. 95%. Pat Buchanan suggested (and Nicholas Wade recently provided the scientific backing for this suggestion in A Troublesome Inheritance) it is probably not a coincidence that in the history of humanity the only societies based on ordered liberty of any flavor were established by white people.

At some point, we need to confront the possibility that not all peoples have evolved the temperament necessary to be successful under ordered liberty, and that if we are ever to again have a free society like the one envisioned by our founders, that society will have to look like the one of our founders.
