Trump Is Who The GOP Really Is. He Is Just Blunt About The Racism.

The rest of the GOP presidential field is really no better than Trump. They are just pretty good at hiding the racists they really all are. They quietly support many of the policies that Trump is so open about. It all comes down to who is the least nuts of the bunch.

crazy he gets. It is really scary, could he be the next Hitler? I really think if the Republican establishment doesn't take out Trump he will be the next president.

This is a group of racists and bigots, who just happened to be born in the US...but are not Americans!

And to out a little historical perspective...most Germans thought that the Nazis were too extreme and were going to fail as a political party.

Millions of dead later, people realized that they may have been wrong!!!

Never under estimate the power of stupid people full of fear....

I haven't talked any into voting for a Democrat, but I know a few who are just sitting this one out.

If it weren't, there would be condemnations from the other candidates. They won't, and can't, because it's the core of their beliefs and that of their base.

It's about white supremacy and ensuring that those who aren't white, regardless of their nationality or citizenship, are stripped of their legitimacy.

voters. Now in an effort to present themselves as conservative and compassionate the Republicans will discard him.

Remember Trump was the Mr. Birther of the 2012 Presidential campaign though that year he didn't become an actual candidate.
