In face of criticism, Trump surges to his biggest lead over the GOP field

[sinkspur]

The ONLY person speaking out is Donald Trump....and they can't find ONE single person that knows him that would badmouth him or disavow his candidacy.

They're not supporting him or his goofy remarks either.  They're probably too embarrassed to be identified as someone who knows him, knowing if they speak out against him, he'll trash them in public and on Twitter too.

By the way, that was a very weak disavowal of your remarks.

You people sicken me.

No one cares.

Donald Trump has employed 100,000 people over the years in his various businesses. And in that time as an employer there are no records of women suing for sexual-harassment or minorities suing for discrimination or employees suing for unsafe working conditions or suing over pay discrepancies. There are no stains there, sink. At least none that you could legitimately use to express the full range of emotional tics you display over Trump.

And the RINOGOPe, IRS, Media, Pundits look under every rock to find some thing or person on TRUMP. Probably every employee, vendor, contractor he even done business with has been contacted for some DIRT, NOTHING! And even RUSH said "don't fool yourself they looked and looked some more"

If you knew what it was like to actually be that despondent about life, maybe you would.

J. Myrle, don't let posts on these threads, Trump's candidacy, America's descent into the abyss, or the corrupt "climate scientists" get you down.  Truth be told, there is not a whole heck of a lot that any of us can do about much of it.  Sometimes we all get so "intense" with our postings here, that one would think we are in a one-on-one battle for the future of human race.

We all blow off a lot of steam at times, and often forget that there is a live human being on the other side of each screen name.  I am more than certain that no one here would ever knowingly contribute to your despair.  Keep your chin up, there is a LONG way to the convention, no one can predict with any certainty who will emerge as the nominee.

So true Katz.

Maybe you need to unplug? Isn't your complaint the genesis for political correctness?

It's common on the internet to make jokes, tasteless jokes, about suicide watches for people who lose bets, their teams lose, or see a bad outcome of something that matters to them.

One way to handle that, is to post up that it's an issue that matters to you, and you'd appreciate a different form of humor/attack.

The other way, is to throw a mini hissy fit, and seek to block other's form of expression.

So, political correctness is ok, as long as it's something you care about?

Ask his creditors in his four bankruptcies.  I've read they got screwed royally.

But he has filed four business bankruptcies, which Bankruptcy.com says makes Trump the top filer in recent decades. All of them were centered around casinos he used to own in Atlantic City. They were all Chapter 11 restructurings, which lets a company stay in business while shedding debt it owes to banks, employees and suppliers.

Yet the GOPe and the Dems voted to bail-out those creditors with TARP. 

If you're so dead-set about bankruptcy laws, which I have never seen you post once between TOS and here, seen you bring them up and how the GOP should get rid of them?

Actually, they didn't.  They had to bite the bullet.

I'm not against bankruptcy laws.  I'm against the cretin who used them FOUR TIMES in two decades, the most of ANY AMERICAN COMPANY.  Trump's an abuser of bankruptcy and an abuser of eminent domain.

I would be very surprised if you could support that statement with some evidence. The fact is, 4 out of Trump's 700 companies sought bankruptcy protection. In the business world that is a stellar record.

Some of the largest companies in the world have had business go south because of bad business decisions or economic downturns, or changing markets. Microsoft and Apple (among hundreds of others) both had made some bad products that nobody wanted or bought. We only remember the successes. Anyone still own a Palm pilot? A Microsoft dud that lost money. Or a Pippin game console? Complete loser for Apple. Apple has produced dozens of rotten Apple products over the years.

I guess a bankruptcy would never happen to you, sinky. You just too smart.

More than anybody.  Any company.

Microsoft and Apple have never stiffed creditors and employees.  Your boy has.  FOUR TIMES.

Chapter 11 vs. Chapter 7

Do you know the difference, sinkspur?

[Carling]

Also, what the hell is bankruptcy.com?  It look like a commercial site.  I actually can't find the article that the left-wing sources that quote it reference.

Yep.

There are a couple of posters here that should be put on suicide watch.   

Not me.  The whole situation gets funnier and funnier as I enter my 10th week of alcoholism.

This is where someone who has had some dealing with alcoholism rants and raves about the lack of sensitivity!

This is where I laugh, good comeback.

I'm sorry for the treatment you've received here, jmyrle.

Hopefully you're only done with the thread, and not the forum......
