If it wants to.
Not likely since a vast majority of Republican voters are now here
some of them voting democrat for the first time in their after life.

Of course. That explains it all. It can't have anything to do with Trumps ego being so high you can't get over it, so low you can't get under it, so wide you can't get around it.....

I dunno, we had Hillary defending Ronnie last night so anything is possible now...and quite frankly in this election I wouldn't blame dead Republicans for voting Democrat...I think most of them probably would.

"There is some bad hombre' out there." The Donald.

Your comment reminded me of this American news paper editor who said to the Danish Journalist

That We can't provide better candidate than the two-show clearly USA is going downhill

Therefore if this was a all time low election and USA is going downhill, then the next Presidential election would be even worse

Another Donald Trump tweet ... He couldn't win class president with his record of tweets

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/...8996f?section=

Quote:
Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump
Why didn't Hillary Clinton announce that she was inappropriately given the debate questions -
she secretly used them! Crooked Hillary.

Quote:
Although the GOP nominee didn’t specify which debate he was referring to, the timing of the tweet suggested he was speaking about Wednesday’s debate at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

The event was moderated by Fox News host Chris Wallace. The prospect of the conservative network “rigging” the debate in Clinton’s favor is laughable. Wallace was widely praised for his fine job of focusing on the issues, and he pressed both candidates equally.

Trump’s accusation is par for the course for the New York businessman, who often makes wild claims and engages in conspiracy theories without offering any evidence. Most recently, he has taken to claiming the election is rigged due to voter fraud.

His fear of a rigged debate seems to stem from a hacked WikiLeaks email that suggested that Donna Brazile, the interim chair of the Democratic National Committee, earlier this year shared the text of a proposed question with Clinton ahead of a CNN town hall event featuring her primary opponent, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).

You've got to be kidding me.

EDIT: Upon following the links it would seem that you are indeed not kidding. How did this man amount to anything in life when he clearly has not matured emotionally since 5th grade?

It's funny, I've heard theories that periodically someone tries to take his phone away to stop him tweeting but he always seems to get it back or just get a new one. They really should have tried to fix that, but it goes to show that the professionals, the people who know how a campaign should be run are not the people in control of Trump and his message.

As most of you know by know I'm nor Trump or Clinton supporter

I was astonished by the way Trump got the hold of may Americans by saying things they liked to hear.

Now today I'm astonished in another direction-how or where did he loose it?
