Trump is classic right? You can't be serious! Why do you think the GOP establishment is freaking out?

I meant "classic" as in notable, right against left battle. So maybe Sanders is a little more left that Trump is right, but that's not really as important as the fact that the two are polar opposites. It would be a classic battle. A man of principle and ideals on the left, against one with neither on the right. :)

No, on the Right, Trump had a lot of principles, like make other countries pay their fair share, make sure no one takes advantage of America anymore, bring back manufacturing to the USA, control immigration, no Muslims etc etc.

It could be that he would take America Auto manufacture from Canada and make sure it's done in the US. Canadians have been living off the American autos for a long time for free.

.
That Chrisy dude is one strategic planner, he's knows how to become Vice President when Trump becomes President..

Hasn't the bulk of offshore manufacturing of American goods been the decision of American corporations seeking cheaper labour in order to deliver the goods at a cheaper price? I wonder Trump will let the American electorate know that bringing manufacturing jobs back to the US will ultimately be financed by them?

All the Americans have to do is get their build quality up to that of the rest of the world. I am reminded of the Toyota plant down in the States who had such a poorly educated work force that they had to hang pictograph cartoons all over the plant to teach the workers how to do their dozen repeated steps. Toyota gave up and moved that whole shift's work up to Ingersol where they have an intelligent, educated and educateable work force. This all happened within the last decade. Those jobs will never return to the U.S.. The conditions that led to them have deteriorated substantially, since then. The American worker can't keep up, anymore no matter how much Trump Huff's and puffs.

Trump will have to figure out how to capture the traditional blue states with the high electoral votes like California, etc. He can't win if he only get red states like Arizona, Missouri etc. with small electoral numbers.

Yes, I tend to agree that traditional manufacturing is becoiming a thing of the past for the US and Canada.

But the US has always been good at inventing and designing specialty and large equipment for the world.

Maybe here and electronic specialties is where their future lies.

Trump is every bit a part of the corporate establishment that runs the US.


Not sure why people think he's an outsider.

He is not part of the political class. That is why they all hate him. Be the best thing for the country to have someone like Trump to shake up the establishment.

No Trump is not going to win he has the support of the conservative outcast society.
Tea Party has their own candidate, the establishment Bush, the Born again crowd
Cruz. This is dividing the Party. In addition, no one has factored in the Democrats
Ms Clinton has an excellent chance of winning still and Bernie will ask the questions
the Republicans can't answer.
This is a long long long way from over and Trump may win the Republican vote but
I don't see him holding the brass ring at the end


You really think Clinton would make a better president than Trump? Methinks you may want to look her over more closely!
