Yes. And I expect Trump to chose between being a quitter or a loser. He can get paid off for quitting but not for losing. And with the right alibi he can pretend he is saving face by exiting. Since his whole schtick is he is a "winner" you can bet that his damaged ego could not handle suffering one of the worst losses in electoral history. Trump doesnt want to be called a loser so he will find a way to quit first.

Poor Bargs :lol:

yeah trump is the biggest dickwipe I have ever seen and it makes me lose respect for anybody who holds him in such high esteem that they cannot admit he says vile and dumb things constantly. I mean the man is really the most culturally idiotic person I have ever seen get this much of the limelight. he is an embarassment

Trump had a lame ass reality TV show with flavor flav and a bunch of other down and out fame whores and that is who gets the R party's nomination?

Another thing the trump trolls couldn't handle is my saying Trump is despised globally. They said I was full of it. Guess what?

This was from yesterday:

International Perspectives of Clinton vs. Trump

http://www.ipsos-na.com/news-polls/pressrelease.aspx?id=7273

In a new twenty-five country poll by Ipsos, we find that around the world citizens are very concerned with the ramifications of a Trump presidency

Globally, most citizens (57%) say they would vote for Hillary Clinton – far outstripping the number who would support Trump (13%).

Citizens around the world feel that Clinton would have a more positive impact on specific issues including:
The world economy (Clinton 46% to Trump 14%);
Global peace and security (Clinton 54% to Trump 9%); and
Issues important to their country (Clinton 47% to Trump 12%).

At the national level, the only two countries were Trump “wins” are China and Russia.

Topline results are available for download on the right side of the page.

I'm sorry I can't vote for Clinton, even over Trump. She's a psychopath, u guys heard her bragging that she got a pedophile off the hook? She's **** disgusting and then there's Bill Clinton having his own pedophile rumors. Ugh, the world would be a better place without them.

what a doofus

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/09/us/politics/donald-trump-republicans.html?_r=0

As he headed to the Trump Grill for lunch, tourists and workers hailed him, congratulated him and urged him on as they lined up to take photos with their phones.

He posed with some women and looked back at a reporter to point at the women and boasted “Hispanics!” Afterward, he bragged: “They say ‘We love you, Mr. Trump. We’re from Mexico.’ ”

After he was seated, the Secret Service erected a temporary partition to shield him from other guests.

“Look,” he said, amused, “we put up a wall!”

The more I think about Hillary and Donald, the more I consider voting for Jill Stein. We need an actual liberal party in this country and it's clear the Dems don't want to be it.

This summarizes a lot of my feelings: http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/king-leaving-democratic-party-article-1.2644307

Like the article said, do that AFTER this election, then look for the alternative solutions. Trump is that bad

........... but I think it will be Paul Ryan vs. Clinton, not Trump

but Trump is going to go down in flames either way whether he stays in the race or not. Please assist in that

No, it shows what a horrible choice Hillary is that Trump is a better option. The rest of the world calls her Killary.

The less bad option. Don't let the media hysterics fool you. He's an arrogant show-off but at least he's not a mentally unstable psychopath. This is what her presidency would look like.

I don't let the media hysterics fool me. I'm a pretty good judge of character and, on top of me thinking he's **** crazy, he has no idea what to do with foreign nations and his stances are bull.

You, and other pro Trump people, are free to believe what you want - I've said multiple times I don't like Hillary, but she's the better option IMO. Bloomberg would have been the best case scenario for republicans and democrats, though. Such a shame.

Obviously Trump is off the charts unpopular worldwide, but these numbers should make it obvious that Hillary isn't that popular either. Her hawkish tendencies are among my chief concerns about her and globally it makes sense that there's a fair amount of global trepidation over her presidency.
