Ok, I see what you're saying now.
Let me ask you, if you had your way, who would you put in as president?
But you believe this?
What I said is a matter of both fact and reality............To pave any possibility of changing GOP policy to attract minority voters is stymied by so-called conservatives which are mostly by the numbers older white men..........They sure do not seem to have any plans in leaving the Rep.Party............so the only way the numbers can be reduced is thru natural developments...........like death .......
But the current question now seems to be.......Will there still be a GOP? Many of the GOP think not..............Not only will Trump lose by a landslide...........he will be taking down the party too..........
This is no liberal made up BS...........These are serious concerns of professional leaders of the GOP and people familiar with US politics....
This is stuff you'll never hear or reported in the RW media.......
I am as a life long member am concerned..........Trump will take the p[arty down with him.........and then blame it all on someone else.
Stein and her Greens need to get behind GJ if he's to make the 15% threshold for debates. Watch trump fight that one.
Sen. Sasse is looking at GJ, but GJ needs money guys like Romney and especially Huntsman Sr. to get his message out, especially before the two conventions.
Paul will be a sitting Senator in 2020, much different than this go around. He'll tack back to his Libertarian roots, which is where I believe USSC Justices Roberts and Kennedy are. I think Garland would have joined them. Liberals weren't too thrilled with the Garland pick.
If HRC wins, she should ignore Reid on Garland and pick a liberal if DEMs win the Senate. Schumer can then pull McConnell's nuclear trigger on the USSC pick if McConnell filibusters. McConnell first threatened the nuclear trigger last decade when Daschle was filibustering Bush's picks below the USSC.
GOP ML Trent Lott did a similar thing to Clinton his last two years, just as McConnell has done to Obama. Pretty messed up system we're leaving to the next generation .
I'm nineteen, NIMBY. I'm part of the generation receiving this messed up system!

You of all people should support Trump.
I kind of had that feeling. I did my best for 40 years as a Chemistry/Physics/Math teacher to prepare my students close to your age for life after high school. I've spent a lot of time reading the last several months on DP without a lot of posting and feel I have a better grasp on where you younger folks are coming from.
At 62-YOA, I was a fairly astute 14-YO during the 1968 Chicago Convention and my first vote was against Nixon and for McGovern in 1972. We grew up in a time of assassinations, the Vietnam war, I was an Air Force brat, Woodstock, the man on the Moon, the beginning of computers--you've heard a lot of this from us baby-boomers.
I wish you well in your endeavors. I'm seeing a lot of students go to community college to get their AA and gen eds with a little focus on a few majors. Saves a ton of money, working a job, living at home, figuring out who you are--I'm seeing it work for a lot of my friend's kids---then they transfer to a 4-year school and still many times get 4 more years in to get their Bachelor's and Master's.
It's a lot different than when I went to a 4-year school at 17-YOA in 1971 with the draft hanging over our heads. Nixon ended the draft during the election year of 1972, my year, and coincidentally or not the first year there was no 2S college deferment.
This is way past my bed time. Have a productive summer with work and/or school and everything else .
When was the last time that we had 12 consecutive years of Democrat presidents? FDR.Think Hillary is this generations FDR?
You don't even know what "racist" means. Learn and use it properly.
Let me guess. White nationalists are disgusting bigots but illegal scum waving their Mexican flags on the U.S. soil and burning ours are cool dudes. Right?
And that judge belonging to an offshoot of the racist La Raza is even cooler?
No. I shouldn't.
I see no reason why I should support someone who is essentially a business-based version of Hillary who flops on issues faster.
Trump exemplifies everything that is wrong with the government: he bribes politicians and brags about doing so, he uses legal loopholes like eminent domain to evict people who won't sell their property to him and bankruptcy laws to collapse his own companies (screwing over thousands of his employees in the process) in order to screw over people he took loans from. He lies more than Hillary, sticks his foot in his mouth more than Bush, and is more willing to wipe his ass with the constitutuon than Obama ever was.
Donald Trump is anathema to every value I hold dear: honesty, courtesy, accountability, loyalty... I have no common ground with the man when it comes to morals.
Donald Trump doesn't see eye-to-eye with me on a single issue I hold important: he wants to control the US economy through tariffs and sanctions, he's a warmongering lunatic who has stated that he will order our troops to commit war crimes, he has said that he would violate the freedom of religion of millions of Americans, and he has proposed a logisrically impossible solution to our immigration problem that does nothing to fix the underlying problems in our immigration system.
**** Donald Trump. **** him, **** his constant flip-flopping on every ****ing issue, **** his empty boasts and threats, **** his temper tantrums, and **** his barely functional, unfunded, skeleton-crew campaign.
If you want me to prove every last word I just said, I've got nothing to do tomorrow, and will start a thread detailing every last point I just made. All you need do is ask.
I believe that the huge demographic change which is going on right now in the USA is a huge problem for The GOP.
Don't take my word for this, wait until non-Hispanic Whites are a minority of the U.S. population and watch the GOP decline to a small,regional, party.
No one can stop time, and/or change.
A racist is defined as “a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.......
synonyms: racial bigot, racialist, xenophobe, chauvinist, supremacist
I think the use of the word was proper given the facts of how it was used.......and there is bipartisan support for that view point you might notice..........
The leadership and almost all the GOP in Congress have said Trump's remarks were racist...........Don't you read the news reports.......I have been watching Faux and they have given little coverage to the GOP's outrage .........
And you have no talent in reading minds but your post is a great example of what racist remarks are like
Ok, I see what you're saying now.
Let me ask you, if you had your way, who would you put in as president?
You mean when Trump loses big he will bring the party down with him don't you? It really make little difference for the GOP who he is running against.
True, that is one of the definitions of racism, but I don't see how it applies to Trump's comments about the judge.
Trump was saying that he believed the judge was biased based on him being of Mexican descent. His comments suggested the judge dislikes or opposes him based on his political platform on illegal immigration, the Mexican border, etc... and that bias has influenced his rulings on the case against him. That in no way suggests that latinos are inferior to other races.
If anything, Trump is guilty of doing exactly the same kind of dishonest, low-class crap that the left does day in and day out... He used the race card strategy to attack and disparage the judge because he disagrees on how he's ruled on the case against him.
Think about it...
D.A doesn't file charges against George Zimmerman for shooting Trayvon Martin - The left says the shooting and the decision by the D.A were based on racial biases.
Harvard professor arrested by Cambridge police - The left claims the arrest was based on racial bias by the police officers.
Judge rules against Trump - Trump says the decision is based on the Judge's racial biases.
All 3 of those are examples of "playing the race card" to disparage the opinions or actions of those you disagree with, without having any evidence to support it. So if you're going to continue insisting that Trump's words constitute racism, then you must also agree that every time those on the left pull the race card out of their hat, they are also guilty of racism.
.
I get what you're saying, believe me. In better times, I don't think I'd support him. But as a young person, I'm assuming you're in college; who do you think has a better vision for your future?
I think it's Donald Trump, because he wants to return America to where it once was, in terms of prosperity. Liberals like Hillary are busy giving away the country.
When you graduate from college, how much debt are you going to have? Why do textbooks cost $200-300 a piece? Liberals control our college campuses, yet they show that they're as greedy as Republicans. People graduate from college $100k in debt because professors are making $100k a year. And these are the same people who complain about capitalism!
You're going to be competing for jobs and housing with people who aren't even American citizens. Then they'll have kids, and their kids will add to the problem. We've been charitable to the point of putting our own citizens out of work. This needs to stop. Not everyone is going to work for Microsoft or Twitter, we need to keep blue collar jobs so that all Americans can have a job.
As far as the Muslim issue, I don't honestly think our founding fathers would want to create a class of people who dislike us and may even commit terrorism against us. Their culture clashes with our own. I'm not against a moratorium on all immigration though, as I think overpopulation is one of the biggest problems that no one is talking about, that effects our environment, economy, security, etc.
No.
If Hillary wins, the illegals will get amnesty and the gates will open up to the maximum to complete the Latino sewage flood of the U.S.
In short order, they will become the Democrat voters, which is what the plan has been from the beginning, and the U.S. will become a de facto one-party lawless Latino hellhole, with whites as a quickly vanishing minority.
Like in California.
Good bye, USA. It's been fun knowing you.

You own your thread so I asked you.
If you know what Trump said about whites being superior to another race, quote it. Or admit that you are a race mongering Trump hater.
Just reporting the news....as in being the messenger......... if you have a problem or wish to question the report............Take it up with the author
BTW
I would proffer your uncomfortable feelings and need to sound offensive in reply is based upon a sickening feeling and understanding thatMr. Trump will be a loser by a landslide
an unsupportable argument/conclusion based more so upon both fear of the future and speculation
Bull***. You are a one-party country already. The RINO's no longer even pretend to be an opposition party after the last two congressional elections.
And spare me grade school civics 101 how you have a "two-party system", which is nothing else than one socialist party divided into two factions needed to create an illusion of a fight. Just like during army war games.
To the naive, RINO's "control" Congress. Cool. And they gave everything to Obama what they told the faithful suckers in 2012 and 2014 they would fight against: ACA, amnesty, refugees, Planned Parenthood funding, and TTIP.
Can you name what the RINO's denied to Obama lately?
I doubt that Trump will lose by a landslide but I do believe that he will lose.
"latino sewage flood"
Seriously?
What hyperbolic garbage and hate.
