WTF is this man doing?

I managed to avoid the entire convention and now he's on TV again making a bigger ass out of himself that I thought humanly possible.

It's self-agrandizng, narcicistic, erratic word salad.

That's a rather ironic question given that a number of the FRefugees here were part of that gang that supported JR's purge of Giuliani supporters, just as with the Romney purge.  That JR suddenly took to Trump pulled the rug out from under them and so many came here to preach about principles and values and condemn anyone who didn't fall in line with their candidate.  Just as at FR, they depended on the Hitler and Mussolini analogies over and over again, calling supporters of Trump stupid and LIV, among the nicer names.  They started this week ridiculing the convention saying they weren't interested, wouldn't watch it, wouldn't vote for the candidate and hoped the GOP was destroyed in the process.  Yet here you are.

While posting thousands of comments condemning Trump, his family and his supporters, they had the balls to question why the Trump supporters weren't going after Hillary!  :facepalm2:

Time after time they've asked Trump supporters why they don't go over to FR where they would be welcome.  This from a forum that welcomed them openly and without question.  Yet the handful of times a Trump supporter questioned why someone was here, the whining began incessantly about these few members trying to take over the forum.  This is how it was at TOS...pack-dog warfare on anyone who looked at a candidate not vetted by the far right.  So what's left here?

A forum that if any alternate thought is reflected, it must be separated into zones for each idea.  The anti-Trump crowd said they would do everything possible to defeat him in the general election, and some have said that they would rather have Hillary as president.  And yet they call the Trump supporters delusional and stupid.

Nothing succeeds like success, and you have succeeded in transforming this forum into an anti-Republican, anti-Trump website.  A few months ago, the smaller group here making up the forum talked about hoping that one day everyone could shake hands and get back to normal.  I haven't heard those sentiments lately.  And it's not the fault of the ownership or moderators here.  They do the best they can, but what was once considered a personal insult and dealt with, was nothing compared with the outrageous group and personal insults now.  It's now little different from the old "Biker Bar" and LF among other such food fight arenas.

I still hope I'm completely wrong because I continue to believe a viable GOP with all of its factions is the only hope for a conservative government.  I hope that when the Hillary crowning convention begins next week, the bitterness and hostility that has crowded out any reasonable discussion of candidates this week will be turned on the Democrats in full force.  So now, flame away.   :beer:

I can always tell how well Mr. Trump is doing by listening to his critics. The more you hear them compare Donald Trump to Mussolini and Hitler, the better Trump is doing.

I can tell they’re terrified of Mr. Trump because last night the talking heads were falling over themselves after his acceptance speech trying to outdo each other with their fascism comparisons.

They are so cute flailing about in their barely disguised anger.

Trump fans' speech is very telling.  It's all fake outrage over what people think of "Mr.Trump", while liberty, freedom, and small government go out the window.

Kind of like last night, huh?

The Trump believers should be more worried about the two members here who have been pushed to Hillary or the three members who were open to Trump and are now nevers.

Just from the last 24 hours.

Trump was late to his nonsensical speech today- talking about being on the cover of Time magazine and how much money he gave to his campaign. Still bashing the other candidates he beat, saying they didn't treat Bernie right- this is clear evidence of his disorganized mind and narcissism.

Someone who is better at computers needs to post the YOUTUBE of today's insane rant. He was all over the place and bashed Cruz saying he was going to form a PAC to defeat him for Senate. He relived the whole campaign and was just nuts. This deserves a thread of its own.

He rambled like he has never rambled before. His kids, Melania, Lee Harvey Oswald, Heidi Cruz, the SC, Japan, NASCAR, starting a PAC to defeat Cruz, being on the cover of TIME, how much money he gave his campaign. It was stunning and not in a good way.

Trump right now is going back to Cruz's father and Lee Harvey Oswald. "Has anybody ever denied that was his father" with Oswald?

Since TRUMP is probably a registered trademark, I wonder how much the campaign is paying in royalties?
