My mother has never voted anything other than Republican and supported Carson through the TN primary. She's been so put off by the actions of the RNC and establishment bigwigs to derail Trump, she wrote a strongly worded email (her words) to the local, state and national GOP stating that she never intended to vote Trump until they started pulling this crap. Now she'll vote for him even as a third party candidate to protest the hijacking of the will of the people.

^Indeed^

My wife has no idea who to vote for now. That said, she'll end up voting the GOP party line.

Now Romney is looking to help foster the shenanigans.

Hell, why not? It is close to St. Patty's day.

Romney needs to go away. Who in their right mind thought unleashing the Romneykracken is askeery or smart. The morons panicked and did the exact wrong thing.

The Trump phenomena is occurring because many Americans are fed up wit "bought" politicians telling potential voters what they want to hear. These people hear politicians making promises they either don't intend to keep or can't keep. Before the election they put themselves in front of you, shaking hands and kissing babies. After they are elected, you need an appointment at least six months in advance to talk to them. They won't answer you online either. Before they are elected they promise to extend benefits, create new programs and lower taxes. A tried and true program that alway works and never happens, except in reverse. Trump is different. He says what is on his mind and, if you don't like it, don't vote for him. Neither the Republican establisment wants Trump nor does the Democratic establishment want Bernie Sanders. The reason? Neither of them can be controlled by the fat cats that finance both parties.

Bernie keeps telling the same story, Trump changes the story regularly, if you can get by the insulting part and vulgarity.

I like Bernie.
He's a likable guy, and you're right about him saying the same story forever.
He's a self admitted socialist, although now his flock want to correct you by saying "democratic socialist". Because that's better. Heck, that's like saying "moderate fascist".
I guess if it makes you feel good.

The problem with Bernie is that his programs will ruin the country FOREVER.
You can't undo social give-a-ways. Who's the politician that's going to get elected by saying "I'll take your things back!"?
So if you give "free tuition" today, it's forever.
If you give $15/hour to a broom pusher because it's a "livable wage", it's forever.
Unemployment and/or inflation be damned.

I think Trump is an azzhole.
Wouldn't let him watch my kids.
But his simplistic ideas are a breath of fresh air.

Simplify the tax laws.
Even out the trade imbalance.
Control illegal immigration.

You say he changes his tune, but he doesn't. He gets caught up in the rhetoric and says stupid things. But the message is the same: Let American Capitalism thrive and the good times will follow.

If you disagree that's fine. But do it for the right reasons.

I'm voting for Tom Brady. It's the only person anyone objective could vote for. I'm not going to vote for who Mort tells me to.
