This is why he doesn't want to show his taxes. It will reveal the truth about Trump, that would hurt his voting population. Trump is a result of having a black family in the white house for 8 years. If this was any other election period in US history, Trump would've been laugh at and sent back to his false world of reality. But for every action (Obama) there's a reaction (Trump).
This only proves how F'ed the US is and how far we have to go, before America can face reality that it was never great in the first place, so it can't great again.
i agree with this somewhat. i think america *was* ready for change and *was* ready to move forward but when presented with a fear campaign, they go back to their inner instincts and vote for what they really feel.
Only Part of America was ready for change. There's still a large swath of the Country that isn't. This is the typical American backlash to progress that we saw after Reconstruction following the Civil War! African Americans were making progress and the social order was changing so fast. That's why they created Terror Groups like the Ku Klux Klan and eventually Jim Crow for the next 100 years!!! After the Civil Rights success of the 60's you got Nixon. After Carter you got Reagan who used the Southern Strategy as well.

The FBI chief has asked the Justice Department to reject Trump's claim that Obama tapped his phone..Justice Dapartment has not..
Former CIA chief said Obama did not tap Trump's phone..

Trump can't figure out how the press knows the Russian embassador was at Trump Tower..They snuck him in becuase he wasn't seen on camera with all the other invitees...Don't mess with the intelligence agencies..

That's how dumb Trump is to not realize you don't mess with Spy's!!! They know where all the bodies are buried and all the stuff you think is in secret. SMH.
And Arabs are totally white and looking like Jews. But all Hollywood start are toned so they are looking like terrorists...

I know you can't wait to do your part for the Republican Party and pay your portion of the 20% border tax to help corporations with their tax cut and pay the extra fees at airports and have them rape you via your retirement plan and credit card companies are back to gouging you with extra fees..

rachel maddow has become must see tv. she is actually being a journalist and bringing actual news to the table and not the noise that's cnn or other shows.

A serious question at this point, after listening to all the fiction he spouts, do posters believe Trump is a liar, or do you think he's delusional?

i think you can make a case that he's not mentally all there or has a behavior disorder. he also has all the tell tale signs of being a pathological liar. i wish there were some mechanisms in place to force public officials to take both a physical and mental exam before being able to run for office. the problem we are having here is folks rallying behind him w/o even trying to be objective. you feel immigration is a problem? fine. but the way this administration is handling this is totally incompetent. there is no real plan and things are not being thoroughly investigated and thought out. same with many of his other policies(?). that is what should be troubling his supporters.

a neuropyschologist friend who works at one of the best institutions in the country..... i won't disclose names to protect him/her. friend said that trump would fail eval for a normal sound mind and would probably be prescribed medication, therapy, in follow-ups. friend said there's several visual signs and behavioral signs that point to this.

America wanted changed and we need it, our nation is crumbling. Buttress this with the fact that a large majority of the members of our Congress and Senate are in it for themselves and are protected by Gerrymandering and so get elected over and over and over despite the fact that they continue to be overtly inept, corrupt, self-serving or just stupid. How does someone like Santorum get elected? Michele Bachmann? How does James Inhofe keep getting re-elected? How about Jeff Sessions?
So a majority of our voters latched onto the best con man out there, someone who indeed did promise a lot of change that seems to reverberate with the populous - "drain the swamp" - but that is not what this guy was capable or even intending to bring to the office of the presidency with him. He can't plan, does not have the work ethic or management capabilities to pull off anything, his previous style of business was bullying and intimation and failure after failure (we already know that his inheritance backed by an ungodly tax break is the backbone of his empire).
This is what we get when we are duped. The Republican party has duped America for a long time starting with Trickle Down Economics followed by unnecessary wars and buildup of military without similar expenditures on education, healthcare, infrastructure and investment in future.
