This is why ALL of the establishment politicians are vilifying Trump? He is them?


Yes, the guy that has bragged about buying politicians of all parties for decades is part of the establishment. It blows my mind how many people believe anything that Trump says. There is no substance to what he says because he is a populist. He is your typical, loudmouthed NY prick whom is interested only in what's best for him. I predict some pretty disappointed conservatives if Trump gets elected.

Imagine this contrast on the debate stage, a self declared open socialist in Bernie Sanders and a one of the major faces of capitalism and wealth in Trump. What a train wreck.

I have to agree with all of this. I would vote for Trump over anybody the Dems have running but I would hate it. He would be a terrible president and in some ways worse than Obama. Cruz is still not who I would have wanted but at this point he is better than all the rest.

I really wish Scott Walker would have stayed in but he is too establishment for some. For me, he gets things done and is not all talk like most of the rest.

More establishment evidence for Trump.

“Hillary Clinton I think is a terrific woman,” he told Greta Van Susteren. “I am biased because I have known her for years. I live in New York. She lives in New York. I really like her and her husband both a lot. I think she really works hard. And I think, again, she’s given an agenda, it is not all of her, but I think she really works hard and I think she does a good job. I like her.


Hell, he already has a HRC campaign ad ready to go. Imagine that commercial.

If Trump was truly an establishment candidate, the GOP establishment would be trying to elect him, rather than tearing him down. Is he a moderate on the capitalist side? Yes. Is he someone the party elite can control and bend to their will? No.

That's why they can't stand him and don't want him as the nominee. That's why I'd take him over Rubio, Christie or Jeb any day of the week.

" i probably identify more a democrat" - Donald trump

Im not so sure the more established repubs are out to get him so much because he isn't establishment enough like suggested above. But more so that they dont trust him to actually be republican instead Of democrat. After all, he loves the Clinton's

I think he has a shot at picking off some democrat votes because of his ideas on trade. Funny how the last two democrat presidents signed deals bad for unions in spite of owing their souls to unions.

I haven't looked for it, but there is supposed to be a poll out there saying 20% of blue collar democrats are leaning toward trump because they are union workers and trump is promising to bring back manufacturing.

I haven't heard his plan, but we could sure use a change in direction regarding trade. The last few presidents have been working for some country other than the USA, I believe.
