I believe he's called for reinvading Iraq to deal with ISIS and taking enough oil to repay their 15 years of "debt" to us. That's pretty specific.

Lol! Ok, I'll give you that one, although it's still pretty fucking vague.

It's not vague, it's just stupid and delusional. He thinks he can get Mexico to pay for a wall for the US/Mexico border, and apparently he thinks he can get Iraqis to pay the $1+ trillion cost of Bush's adventure in Iraq. They didn't like us being there even when we were taking down Saddam. Something tells me they'll like us even less when we are taking their oil.

I actually have big respect for HuffPo on this. They're actually helping the image of the Republican party by doing this.

The Indians didn't like the British when they were taking their spices and monkeys, but that didn't stop them.

I take back my previous position. He deserves to be in the "entertainment" section. The POW/McCain stuff sealed it for me.

Huffpo has decided they will no cover Trump in their political section and do so in the entertainment section instead.

LMAO!!!!! As if this will change the amount of media coverage Trump receives. Huffpo is a biased wannabe media source at best.

What is truly hilarious is that the non-clown Republicans likely support this non-serious libruuuuuul media source decision, because they know that if Trump were to be the 2016 Republican nominee, Democrat X will not only throat stomp Trump in the EC, but Democrat X will have very, very long coattails.

Serious Republicans (the grifter subtype) aren't stupid.

Personally, I hope Trump wins the nomination. Getting the Republican base ID out there for all to see without the normal walk-back for the general election to win the vote of the non-crazies will be very refreshing. And hilarious.

#Trump 2016.

Hell, I'll even go #Trump/Carson 2016

They could make that campaign 24/7 Pay-Per-View and turn a nice profit in addition to the money spent on the campaign.

Trump is a joke as a candidate. He always has been and always will be. Huffington Post may have just solidified themselves as the most legitimate news source in this country with this decision.

The guy has five threads on the main page of this forum dedicated to discussing him, regardless of where they put the information the guy is generating press via controversy.

As I said, he's a master of self-aggrandizement & media manipulation.

That doesn't mean he's actually qualified to do anything else.

When I look at Trump, I see my avatar attached to a spring and shoved inside a box, with a little sign that warns, do not open me, because I am the real face of all of America's ego dreams, I am the chaos psycho that you repress, keep me hidden in here.

Well the CBDives had to go down that road to push the button and Pandora's nightmare walks the land. And now the hope is that the freak show can be relegated to the entertainment section, but I don't think so.

America, take a good look at yourself in all your glorious manifestation. Donald Trump is a living manifestation of all your dreams and you don't like what you see. But why the tears? He's exactly what we deserve, him and all the other clowns so similar to him in the race. Donald Trump is me and I'm loving it. What a gift it is to know that I become what I hate. Such refreshing honesty he brings to the table.

Strange as it may seem, and it's really not saying much considering the company he's keeping in that clown car they're all circling around in. Trump may very well be the more honest and forthright of them all, given that he's got nothing to lose/everything to gain and more than enough money/lawyers not to even care about the consequences of his words and actions.

Yeah and someone can go on a mass killing spree and generate headlines as well.

I don't agree with you at all. You've got 14% polls for the circus and you think he represents America as a whole. Come on.

This is what I am saying. He is our dreams and we hate our dreams when we see them manifest in reality. We do not see that the ugliness we see out there is the ugliness we create from our own interior. We are the world and the world is our creation. What you see is who you are. If you want to see that Donald Trump is an American dream you will need to be a foreigner from a place unlike America completely, or if American, you will have to have recognized the inevitable brainwashing that your chance place of birth has had upon your psyche for all the years in which you absorbed it unconsciously as a child and died to its worship, the love of nation and all the ugliness that goes with it, and put it behind you in horror. Yo end the ugliness of the world you must see it is yourself and love yourself anyway. And love well because there is no ugliness in love. Ego is the love of hate so be careful. Love is the unity and flow of being and has no object and has no words no theory or thought.

I've been through the existential crisis and enlightenment of my 20's. I know that my thoughts are relative to my culture and regional teachings. I am completely fine with myself. Its not scary at all once you make peace with who you are. :thumbsup:

Trump is just an ass.

I guess you have no idea what damage can be done by the jawbone of an ass. He is one ass in the truckload of asses running for President. The fact that he's an ass means nothing. An ass is going to win. He is an ass who has significant and relevant meaning, in my opinion, to the dynamics of the election, and HUFPRO is childish also in my opinion, to dismiss him. Liberals are brain defective. They can't see the significance of the opposition nor the moral considerations they bring to the table. Liberals can be complete airheads. "We will dismiss this idiot from our consideration because he can't be serious." No sane person will ever vote for Trump, they believe, not seeing that they and everybody else IS insane. I am going to laugh my ass off if Republicans win. If they do it will be because of liberal incredulity.

Moonbeam's perspective is always interesting because he's a student of human nature.

Trump is an interesting & extreme example. Trump has it all, what many people strive to have & yet he's obviously one of the most miserable & insufferable assholes on the planet.

In a society that allowed him all that, it's apparently not enough. He clearly feels entitled to more, some how, some way, and he's angry that he can't have it.

In some strange way, that resonates with the base, who always feel cheated regardless of their affluence. It's quite weird that they can't see that if they are being cheated it's the Donald Trumps of the world cheating them.

I don't dismiss Trump. I believe that if he were the Republican nominee that he would get throat stomped because most Americans aren't crazy, and would bring about a change from the right-ward drift of the Democratic party over the past 30+ years.

If Trump were to win, it would be because too many people have bought into the media-sponsored BS that "both sides do it" and stayed home on election day. If Trump were to win, it would pretty quickly do what I said in the previous paragraph, as well as bringing about the end of US Empire, in the sense that people around the world would have a collective "holy shit..." moment and realize that the US and its military might isn't something they can assume will be led by sane people. I mean, say what you want about GWBII, but he was still sane. He may go and invade a country on BS, but at least he's sane enough to know that he has to cook up the BS first. Trump...I don't put anything past Trump, and luckily both the Democratic and Republican Senate/House would keep him on a tight leash.
