So does Scott Walker.
But he is for equal pay.
He WON'T defund Planned Parenthood.
He believes in the right to abortion in the event of rape, incest, life of mother, etc.
He's WAY more sane on most issues than Republicans. He's just so smart (because his top adviser worked for Nixon among others) in knowing that immigration is what will draw him headlines and win him absolute loyalty.

The only reason Hillary is being judged to a different standard is because she is a woman. If Hillary said just one thing Trump has, she would be assassinated by a self-loathing man with nothing to identify himself with but the fact that society holds him above women because of he anatomy of his genitalia.

There's also the email thing.
Which, to be fair, was leaked by Obama officials to sabotage the Clintons.

Exactly. Trump is conservative where it counts, and I really think a lot of blue-collar Dem voters might switch to him if he is the nom.

Yep.
He's pro Affirmative Action too.
I don't get all the hand wringing by people in this thread when he's pretty much the sanest Republican choice. He just has a crazy tea bag exterior.
The other Republicans are sane on the outside, but are evil on the inside.

If that's true, they are going to regret that decision if Biden doesn't hop into the race. But I don't think the administration would risk that.

Valerie Jarett and the Obamas have hated the Clintons since it was leaked that Bill Clinton thought Obama should be bringing him coffee. They hated the Clintons even more after 2014 when the Clintons convinced many Dems to shun Obama during the midterms because he was "toxic." They don't want to give back control of the Democratic Party to the Clintons, which they would do if Hillary is the next President.
The Clinton email scandal leaked at almost exactly the time Hillary started getting more serious about her campaign. Sources on the initial story have quoted people familiar to the White House.
They would rather lose the White House then have another Clinton seize control of the Dem party.

I feel like everyone keeps saying "early polls, he'll fall away", but yet he keeps on growing 
If he actually wins, omg

What's so bad about a President that can't be bought by special interests?
There should be more billionaires running for President, instead of just pulling puppet strings like usual.

He does not. These early polls can be very fickle. The general public doesn't start getting serious about voting until a couple months prior to the election. This poll is just fluff.
This will blow over. And if he is somehow miraculously the Republican nominee, Hillary will not only win, but she'll win by a landslide.  |
How are they "not into it" when the debate got 24 million viewers?

I believe this. It's no secret in DC that The Obamas absolutely loathe the Clintons. Pres. Obama would hold foreign policy meetings without Secretary Clinton, at the time. Doesn't help that Clinton is the one that secretly started that birther-gate (although many attribute that to Trump) to pander to Southern, white democrats when she was losing a hold of the nomination in 2008.

They have the absolute worst personalities and are very "in your face" manipulative. But, they know how to separate their beliefs from what will make money. He may be the better president financially. If i had to pick Hilary Vs Trump i would pick Trump. They both have the same devilish personality but at least Trump is more open about being a **** instead of trying to hide the truth. I just find him more trustworthy than a clinton.
To put it in ATRL terms i see Hilary as having a "Hilary Nation" and Donald Trump just doesn't really care.

I refuse to believe President Trump is a possibility. Even if he wins the Republican nomination, which I still seriously doubt, Clinton would destroy him in the debates and the general election. Trump is entertaining now because it's early in the election season, but once time goes on, he'll take it too far and people will turn on him.
With that said, Trump is still better than Cruz, Rubio, and even Bush on some issues. Sad pack of candidates we have.

If anything, Hillary is hiding behind her gender:
Hillary's campaign strategy "If your a a man, you better not call me out on my mistakes, cause if you do I'll call you sexist!"
Hillary can't do that with Carly Fiorina...Carly can attack Hillary at will! I look foward to seeing Carly on the big stage in the next presidential debate.

Don't worry he has no chance if he's up against Hilary. I think the gamble with democrats now is whether to ensure a win with Hilary or to risk a loss and pick Bernie.

This is a great strategy though. The SJW esque Feminism movement today ensures her a win even if she has proven to be manipulative. Look at one of my faves.

Hillary is a horrible candidate...she is guarded, and evasive with the press. The press don't like that, and will turn on her again like they did in 2008.

Are you high? Trump's in it to make himself more money. The "special interests" are his own.
