I know the truth about that pattern, and I didn't worry in 2012 at all. I'm a bit worried this time because Trump has shown some ability to play to his strengths. It's also possible that I'm underestimating the number of stupid GOP primary voters--ones that will happily pull the lever for Trump. It's not as though I, in Massachusetts, can take the temperature of a bunch of GOPers to find out whether they're ready to jump the shark and vote for this guy. <br /><br />As for leaving the country, I've never even considered it. I don't know the first thing about emigrating and trying to set up life in a different country. I don't exactly what to subtract my voice from this country either. So I'll be sticking around to experience what happens first hand.ModeratePolihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01721945380057992971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2499771266402854669.post-73363489639050662432015-08-24T17:53:01.762-04:002015-08-24T17:53:01.762-04:00Hey, MP, are you REALLY worried about Trump gettin...Hey, MP, are you REALLY worried about Trump getting the nomination, or just saying that so that ultra-lefty Hillary or any other socialist scum the Dems nominate have it easy in the general election? I know how you so-called "moderates" work. Hide your lefty agenda in reasonable-sounding things like "Affordable Care Act". Trump tells it like it is!!<br /><br />I'm just teasing, of course, MP. But I do actually doubt that you're worried, except if Trump somehow could win the presidency. If so, just let me know where at the Canadian border you want to meet to start our new lives. Same goes for Cruz, Fiorina, Huckabee, Carson (seriously?), Paul, etc. As for the others like Kasich, Bush, Rubio, Christie, I'll reserve judgment but keep my car gassed up and start looking on Zillow for a nice place to retire around, say, Ottawa. I'm not sure I'd want to live in a country who would elect any of these clowns, especially with a GOP-controlled legislature. I'd conclude that this country is so over if that happens.<br /><br />As for Trump, they let him take the wheel of the clown car, and I doubt they can wrestle it from him. That was a HUGE mistake on their part. 30K people in Alabama? If he were the GOP nominee, I'm not sure he would win the state. FOUR BANKRUPTCIES!! One bankruptcy would be the end for most candidates. It would be the word of the campaign. His secret plan for ISIS? Bankruptcy. His plan for dealing with China? Bankruptcy. His jobs program? Bankruptcy.<br /><br />He's toast in a general.Dangerousnoreply@blogger.com
