    For those of you who thought the last debate would be the billionaire's Waterloo, my condolences. I have never seen more straightforwardness and honesty coming from a candidate as I have coming from the Donald and in the debate, the common American came bursting forth from Trump with his mannerisms, his bluntness and his penchant for refusing to follow the establishment's status quo.


    My first reaction to Trump's statements is humor, not because I think he's comically inept, but because what he says and how he acts to each question is so stunningly refreshing and honest. Trump isn't trying to fool anybody. He is the anti politician candidate, the anti establishment candidate. And he has struck a chord with ordinary Americans who like him are fed up with the broken promises candidates who lie to get elected then become the servants of their party's special interest and lobbyists once they get into office.


    And by the way, I'll add this comment to this post which was not originally on it: Megan Kelly from the upper middle class with her law degree who is now fabulously wealthy at Fox News because O'Rielly likes to flirt with blondes less than half his age put on her feminist victim hat and went after Trump and she got exactly what she deserved from the Donald.

    So what do we know about this blunt stunningly refreshing honest anti-politician anti-establishment* non-feminist's approach to fixing the country?

    Well he's going to deport 11 million people. And he's going to take the Middle East's oil. He's pretty vague on the rest of it isn't he.

    *"anti-establishment", are you kidding me, he's a country-club dwelling billionaire!

    I hadn't planned on voting, because I felt 'what's the use', since they all bow to the same people and corporations, but the Donald is making me rethink it. He might be egotistical, but as you said he is honest, something we're not getting from other politicians because they can't afford to be. They must follow the ones who feed them...but Trump doesn't need to. He has the money, and look, he might even be able to overcome the negative publicity that he's bound to get from the corporate powers that be..

    If he's not the candidate for the Republican Party, then maybe he'll create a third party. It's sorely needed.

    Donald Trump IS COMMON... and he is lying or else poorly informed.

    Good for you. Trump is telling everybody that these republican shills are too afraid to take on the establishment and they will be business as usual water carriers for their party's special interests if they do manage to lie their way into office.

    Megan Kelly, his assailant, comes from an upper middle class background and is now making millions at Fox because O'Rielly likes to flirt with blondes much less half his age. With all the important issues pressing america, she decided to put on her feminist victim hat and start whining about how Trump doesn't like women - although he only has thousands of them in his employ including dozens of female executives in his corporate offices.

    But that's fine with you because Trump has too much money.

    When are you going to stop supporting professional politicians from the establishment who make you feel good with empty promises?

    Do you favor amnesty for thirty million illegals? Why don't you think Bush shouldn't have taken Iraq's oil to pay for his G damned war instead of handing the bill for it to the American tax payers?

    Oh - that would have upset our global oil trading partners.

    Why, didn't you hear? He's going to make America great again! That'll fix the country.
    It's not like any president has won an election on slogans before, right? Right?

    He's going to be a tough negotiator with foreign interests and get America out of debt and give jobs to Americans. He's going to build a wall along the Mexican border and deport all known illegal criminals. He's going to put America back on the gold and silver standard.

    So you oppose this?

    Please tell me how Trump is going to build a wall that will cost billions and spend years in court fighting environmental injunctions going to "end the debt". What a joke.

    I really want to hear how you think Trump will get a wall built from California to the Gulf by the end of his second term? Or third?
    You honestly think environmentalists won't take it to court? It will take 4 years just to get an environmental impact report completed.

    Do you honestly think deporting 11 million illegals will not add to the debt? Just think of the over-time paid to law enforcement, the millions in court cases. Do you
    think Trump will be an Emperor or a President bound by Constitutional restrictions?

    It's all a joke.

    At the risk of getting another warning, Trump has no chance...

    I've always wondered what those same common Americans were thinking when they were heaping praise on Reagan, Bush41, Bush43, John McCain, Wall Street and the US Chamber of Commerce for importing millions of undocumenteds to suppress wages and break up unions. Kinda makes me think common Americans don't recognize bandwagons when they see them. Kinda makes me think Trump does.

    Gee, that easy is it? Get America out of debt, while building a wall, deporting 11 million people (that won't be cheap, the court cases alone will cost billions), and screwing up relations with other countries thanks to his negotiating 'skill'. Can't wait to see how his misogynist approach works with Angela Merkel!

    Easy, either make drastic cuts to the EPA or abolish it altogether. It's a government boondoggle as evidenced by its stupidity in contaminating groundwater with its MTBE mandate, killing all the fish in a lake to 'save' a frog they can't fine enough of after they tromp through its environment with their rubber boots looking for it, saving owls and killing a timber industry...then....now...KILLING owls and the latest, The Animas yellow river where they spilled heavy metals trying to 'clean up' a gold mine.

    What business is it of yours how many wives Trump has had. Maybe the first two were money grubbing sluts. Getting rid of them might have been an example of good decision making which bodes well for him. Also admitting and righting prior mistakes is a breath of fresh air.

    Trump has never 'personally' gone bankrupt.

    You're afraid of Trump, aren't you? Trump scares you. Trump is the kind of guy who, if elected WONT tell you to go to your tailgate party and have fun and let "us" handle it. That thought terrifies you because you DO NOT want to take on the responsibility of civic duty which is supposed to be your responsibility as an american citizen.

    You would rather let the politicians in Washington run your important affairs for you while you keep having your fun.

    Oh, now you're not supposed to go bankrupt either. Now aren't you just comfy all over with your government security blanket. Now you're telling me that you don't want to go bankrupt no matter what the situation. You want the government to protect your investments with tax dollars from the citizens. Well boo hoo on you.

    You make investments buddy with your own money, you gamble with your own money. The bankruptcy laws are there to protect you and keep you out of jail if your investments fail. You don't get any safety nets pal if you gamble and lose. So sayith Mr. Trump and I.

    Such irony! None of the candidates are anything close to the common, ordinary working (or unemployed) American, but probably the least common man is Donald.
