Logic and facts will never effect conspiracy theories believers as they will give credit to any information that confirm their world views including the Trump relation story.

@RABEL222,
I'd disown him too. This is from last year, but accurate, in my book.

Quote:
Susan Sarandon, ....... believes that Trump, 69, has made a mockery of his party.

"I cannot believe for a second that America would actually make Donald Trump the president," the 69-year-old actress said. "Republicans are not all bad, they're not all crazy, they're not all greedy. I think there's some very sane Republicans and they must be so embarrassed by what's going on right now."

Trump's press secretary has yet to respond to the News.

@Builder,
What's amazing to me is that there are so many Republicans NOT embarrassed by Trump.

@cicerone imposter,
Yeah, if some of them had the courage to stand up to him, that would amaze me, too. But I think decent, thinking people should be EMBARRASSED to have this man representing them.

Mr. Trump isn't my first choice. I like Governor Kasich. But Mr. Trump will protect my civil rights from the Democrats, so he is good enough.

Sure he will just as he stated that the is going to protect national born citizens rights unless they have the wrong religion.

First they came for the Jews or the Muslims and then they came for me.

You're barking up the wrong tree. Oralloy doesn't care about such distinctions.

It's more that I'm not sure that I understand his post. I expect that Mr. Trump will be a good ally for Israel. And I expect that the only Muslims who need to fear him are those who wish to commit felonies in the US.

I agree with this article.

Ty is a Most Viewed Writer in Political Campaigns and Elections.
It's very difficult to fathom a scenario in which Trump has a feasible chance of winning the presidency. Trump is a celebrity with a built-in fan base, but it is unclear (1) how strong his support will remain once he is forced to answer serious questions like a serious candidate and (2) how many of his current supporters will defect once they learn more about other candidates in the race, all of whom presently have lower name recognition in these early stages of the 2016 campaign. Further, Trump is currently riding a wave based on his skillful tapping into populist anger at Washington, but even putting aside his qualifications for office, he's not particularly conservative, so the odds of him winning over primary voters (who tend to want "real" conservative candidates) is slim. And finally, there is a large segment of the population, including many Republicans, who will never vote for Trump under any circumstances. Trump likely has a larger built-in opposition than any other current candidate for president, Hillary Clinton and self-proclaimed socialist Bernie Sanders included.

So even assuming that Trump mounted a serious campaign (a big assumption) and somehow won the Republican nomination, the chances of him winning the electoral college and capturing the presidency are slim. Many Republicans would either sit at home on Election Day or vote for other candidates, and Democrats, fearful of the proposition of Trump becoming president, would likely have good turnout. The odds are therefore higher for a Walter Mondale/Barry Goldwater-size defeat than Trump somehow winning.

You include the communist/socialist/Muslim Obama in that number, of course, right?

Among Donald Trump's South Carolina constituency: 31 percent support banning gays. 38 percent wish the South had won. 70 percent want the Confederate Flag flying.
Just...damn.
