The only free trade I think I could tolerate is free trade solely between nations with similar working conditions to our own. If 16 hour days in dangerous, hazardous or unsanitary areas want to do trade with us fine, but expect a tariff. While America can't stamp out all the sweatshops and child labor in the world I can see no reason for why we should be actively encouraging it with our dollars. This is the high cost of low prices and should be the last thing the seat of freedom and democracy in the world should be sanctioning.

Agreed, that and environmental regulations.

The same people that love Ross Perot and love Ralph Nader love Donald Trump.
Those people that never have trusted the establishment.
The same people that have never voted for any establishment candidate.
The same people that either vote for the odd ball, or simply stay home.
The 6% that voted for Ralph Nader, the 20% that voter for Ross Perot.
So Donald Trump can count on somewhere between 6% and 20% support.
Sounds like a real winner to me.

Those 6% are the only chance this country has. The people who voted for Bush, Obama, McCain, Romney, Kerry, Gore... those people are braindead morons, collaborators, and/or parasites. The 6% who rise above that garbage are all that matter. And Trump is going to increase that number moreso than any presidential candidate in the last 50 years. That is real change. Even if he doesnt win. Especially if he doesnt win.

more unity

http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/06/politics/donald-trump-hill-republicans/index.html

Donald Trump is coming to Capitol Hill to rally the GOP troops roughly two weeks before he's slated to accept his party's nomination for president at the GOP convention in Cleveland, but the crowd might be a little thin.

"I've got a long-standing appointment downtown and I don't know at what time I can get out of that and get back to the Hill," Rep. Fred Upton, R-Michigan, told reporters Wednesday.

Colorado GOP Rep. Mike Coffman, one of the House Democrats' top targets in November, told CNN, "I'm not going to be able to make it. I've got a conflict."

"I haven't checked my schedule yet," Toomey said Wednesday evening when asked if he'd attend the Trump session. "I don't know."

Asked if he felt the need to hear what his party's nominee had to say, Upton, who hasn't endorsed Trump and isn't planning to attend the convention, said about his own meeting, "This has been set up for some time."

please accept my apologies for the sloppy quoting

Anyone happen to see the Trump rally Wednesday 7/6?
How could you miss it? It was on every channel.
What a nightmare.
How could or would anyone considering voting for this non sense, that is if you actually care at all about this country?
From Chuck Todd to golf to Saddam Hussein to stars and Jews, back to golf then to family back to stars again then Saddam then Chuck Todd.
Ok. I get it. This is candid camera. Where is Allen Funt?

I am at the point where even commenting on this mess called Trump is like reasoning a car crash. Or a train wreck.
And most amazing, who are these people that go to these Trump rally's and stand there listening and getting into all this non sense?
Who are these people?
I doubt they play golf. And I doubt they have a clue what Donald is talking about when Donald talks about his golf.

I have to believe people will come to their senses by election day. I have to believe.
And so, what if Hillary is a crook? We've had crooks as presidents at other times they did pretty good running the country.
But never before have we had any president this completely insane as Donald Trump.
Maybe back in the days of Rome, but not during our American history.
And when his supporters go on camera as to why they follow Trump, it is obvious they never actually listen or know who Trump is.
They worship some Trump illusion in their own mind that in no way is actually connected to the real Donald Trump.

Who are these people that love Trump? The Trump fans?
And, where is Allen Funt?

He brought some unity to DC today

http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/07/politics/donald-trump-capitol-hill-republicans/index.html

The presumptive Republican presidential nominee told Arizona GOP Sen. Jeff Flake he would work to defeat him if he didn't change his tune. Flake, who has slammed Trump for his positions on immigration and his racially charged criticism of a Latino judge, reminded Trump that he is not up for re-election until 2018, according to two sources familiar with what occurred.

The hate Trump engenders amongst the Republican establishment is practically the only attractive thing about the man.

Well, that and he isn't Hillary Clinton. But not many people are, so I don't count that.
It's becoming increasingly clear that Trump's buffoonary and incompetence are more dangerous to this country than their corruption.

Well, that and Trump is also corrupt.

Hard for me to see how buffoonary and incompetence is conceivably more dangerous than corruption and incompetence.

Given the choice, I'd probably choose buffoonary and incompetence because, while it may turn into corruption, it could still go either way. Also, buffoonary could potentially lead to accidental positive results for more than just politicians. Maybe.

Trump brings unity to the worst of people alike: open bigots and closet bigots.

Haha, from the DC meeting

Trump made members of the audience wince when he pledged to defend all articles in the Constitution, including, he vowed, Article 12, which does not exist because the founding document has only seven.

"Is it a little uncomfortable? Yeah," said Rep. Mick Mulvaney (R), a Tea Party conservative from South Carolina. "Is it a big deal in the greater scheme of things? No."

I made that exact calculation in 2012 when voting in my local city mayorship race. Ever hear of Rob Ford?

I'm sure that one drumpf supporter from Wharton will step up and say that drumpf is the only choice, and he was a great asset to the school and it's culture when he was a student.
Or some other horseshit that sounds equally plausible.

Its just strange, has any other candidate ever had so many alma Marta voice against a candidate?
I've seen some small groups of students against Bush Jr/Sr, I've seen some students against Bill but 1,400 or more??
