Related: About this forumWhy GOP Establishment is Afraid of Trump -- uh oh
Not only could Trump potentially push Carly Fiorina out of the top-10-only debate field, leaving them looking high and dry in the diversity field, it is apparent that Trump is going to leave no stone un-turned in knocking his opponents in ways that will resonate with the GOP who are anti-everything.... the Far Right and angry nut jobs in that unhappy wing of the party.
Some of what I hear already...
"Bush didn't have the IQ" -- on GW Bush
"The last thing we need is another Bush..." -- on Jeb Bush
"I don't have a lot of respect for many of them" -- on Republican field
"They are all talk, no action" -- on GOP field
"I'm not going to be the nicest..." -- at debate
"They don't have it... they're never going to bring this country back..." -- on all his rivals
It is clear that the over-the-top bombastic personality of Trump is going to make the rest of the field appear to be shrinking violets on stage -- and once that image is set in stone by the debates, it will be really hard to unsee that weakness.
Bwahahahahahah

(2,807 posts)He keeps railing on and on about how Mexico and China are "taking" or "stealing" our jobs. What's happening is Big Corpo is sending our jobs there because of slave wages and no environmental controls. There will NEVER be a level playing field, regardless of trade deals. The workers there are desperate for anything and Big Corpo is immoral and gluttonous.
He speaking in platitudes, not reality. He's no different than the Pubes droning on about abortion. He's appealing to the least common denominator and he knows it.

(1,539 posts)Stealing their oil has worked swell so far for war profiteers. Not so for the rest of America. But of course the top 1/10th of 1 percent have other concerns and values.
Bomb the sh*t out of everyone until they have nothing and I have everything. Let the poor fight, die, and pay for the wars.
Why isn't Donald and his hair piece in an insane asylum?

(2,075 posts)for the entertainment value alone! All those voters who are couch potatoes glued to their TV sets just might find that government and politics with Donald Trump at the helm would be much more entertaining than any reality TV show out there. And yes - Bernie's idea of opening up the presidential debates across party lines would lead to some truly great entertainment opportunities as the Donald squares off against the likes of Hillary and Bernie. After all, Donald Trump has pretty much dismissed all the rest of the Republican field as being a bunch of losers anyway - they're just a bunch of corporate ass-lickers, whereas he's really, really rich, and doesn't need any corporate donors or money from lobbyists.
