    They are delusional idiots. No doubt these are the folks who ran McCain and Romney's campaigns.

    It's not me that cant find a job its 40,000,000 Americans that cant find a job, however unlike you I don't think everything is great just because I'm not hurting terribly.

    Why don't you go lookup the crap the DNC is listing as "the reasons why you should vote for Hillary" it's a joke.... It's like she is running for school president - not president of the United States..... Their reasons can be stated up pretty simply: "vote for Hillary just because".

    Hillary is more likable to me than Donald. Simply because Hillary has a more detailed approach(regarding domestic policy). Foreign Policy, he's said a lot of stupid and flagrantly scary stuff. But at least he agrees that we should reciprocate with the Russians and end the failed Cold War strategy that seems to be our MO to 21st century challenges.

    OK they lost the vote Trump WILL be the nominee. Too bad I miss the old conventions with the suspense and floor fights and negotiations and delegations forming alliances.

    So let them start their celebrations will watch some highlights but that's about it unless something interesting happens.

    I don't know what they were thinking, had they not nominated Trump that would have been a sure win for Hillary - which I believe is what they want because they're the elitist establishment and Trump is anti-establishment, so they're terrified.

    Fault? Certainly he has been a big enabler and has his policies and lack thereof have prevented the economy from getting into a full blown recovery and a full employment recovery. It has started to turn around we hope but certainly not do to anything he has done, he hasn't even proposed anything that I know of.

    They've invaded Georgia and the Ukraine...if anyone is continuing Cold War strategies, it's them.

    She is the one with the failed foreign policies. We know she is a proven failure, that's like betting on a sure loser. How did those "detailed approaches" workout? Horribly, the world is an utter mess and we are losing everywhere. Russia, China, Iran have all walked over this administration and it seems more and more to me that is because they knew all our secrets and guess where they got those. They all outfoxed this administration on every issue on every confrontation as if they knew in advance how far they could go and at what point the administration would back down and what were true positions and which were bluffs.

    And you would put her back in power against anyone? At least with Trump there is a good chance he is going to choose someone who knows what they are doing to be his SecState and the SecDef and DNS and DHS. At this point I am not voting for him because he is going to win my state anyway, but were it close he would certainly get the check mark for national security and foreign policy over a proven failure and one who actually endangered our national security with her extreme carelessness in handling our highest secrets.

    OH I'm not doubting that at all, but this settles it formally, no more suspense or floor fighting, no more trying to get delegates to try and switch.

    So they begin their celebration. I tip my hat to him, he did what NO ONE believed he could and won it outright and from here will dance to the nomination.

    GOPher are open borders free trade globalists. for those that bribe them, the elites are open borders free trade globalists so they can max out their profits. Trump is the first republican to run for president that is against what the GOP and the elites, with help from the dems created.

    These GOPhers have worked too hard, too long, took too much elite money to allow trump to reverse their treason. You see the same thing on the dem side, with Clinton people refusing to go against TPP.

    Remember America blew up the phones and emails when the vote was due to allow TPP to come to get voted on later on. And it made not one bit of difference. Trump wants to build a wall to keep out cheap labor the national chamber of commerce wants for its constituents. The GOP has fooled their voters for years that they want to do something about open borders. And what have they done? LOL GOP voters do not understand who they vote for. Must be easy to fool them with social issues? And they misdirect and do what the elites want.

    So fun to watch the Republican party implode like this. They deserve it though. They've been absolutely disgraceful and disgusting the last 8 years. They deserve someone like Trump to represent them.

    If labor gets more expensive what happens to the price of goods?

    Didn't say we had good choices. I think I'm probably not voting or Gary Johnson. Call me on November 8th(literally) to see how I feel.

    Yeah. When Trump was making up lie after lie to torpedo Cruz that was the time to go after Trump, the bigger more fantastic the lie the better.
    But people stood by dumbfounded and that time has passed for better or worse (it's been worse). It's too late now and we'll have to support Trump and try to make the best of it, just like someone would have to support his daughter's husband no matter how lazy or stupid once they are married.

    I could live with Trump, somewhat. With Hillary, I think I'd have to run a hose from my tail pipe into my car and take some sleeping pills.
