Starting to think everyone Trump kicked in his life is rising up to bite him

Then there's this http://www.newsweek.com/2016/08/12/donald-trumps-business-failures-election-2016-486091.html

I think his campaign motto should be

Yeah, well everything looks bad if you remember it.

@hingehead,
That is quintessential New Jersy. Believe me, it's very very very New Jersey, it's the most opulent and it came in under budget because he never pays the contractors.

But, honey, you don't close off bridges..

Hi, and I know you know I'm kidding you.

I'm still fearful, that a person I find indescribably repulsive is so close to becoming president.

It is rather amusing to see the reaction of conservatives saying that this is just a traffic jam, what's the big deal, and watching them retreat as the investigation uncovers more and more.

I think the Republican Brain Trust-most of whom go around in chauffeured limosines-really missed something essential here. Cars became a necessity for most Americans a long time ago, but that doesn't mean we all don't hate traffic jams. We do. We hate every stinking minute of them. We hate being stuck on the highway or bridge approach surrounded by tens of thousands of others who are all moving perhaps ten feet every 30 seconds. It makes our blood boil, and the idea that we can get even with somebody high up in government who arranged one of those jams on purpose for his own political gain suffuses us all with a wonderfully intense ecstasy. That's why this investigation goes on so relentlessly. The public wants to see people who intentionally put people through traffic jams dodge, squirm and cry out in pain.

@Suttle Tea,
Exactly, right? I still have to re-state this to myself every so often, just to make sure I'm actually seeing this happen.

@snood,
You're right. I thought when he started out, his disparaging remarks against Hispanics automatically disqualified him. Since Republicans after 2012 all were talking about the need to get more of the minority vote, especially Hispanics, I figured Trump's political life was going to be short lived. Instead, it grew and grew. Republicans were talking about widening their appeal to women as well. Trump was famous for calling women fat pigs. Did it stop him? Nope.

Then Trump started talking about doing away with NATO if the other countries didn't pay up, thereby opening up Eastern Europe to re-conquest by Putin, whom Trump seems buddy buddy with. I figured that would doom him. No dice. At least, not until the debate, it remains to be seen if that hurt him there.

Each time I think the stake has been finally put through the heart of Trump's candidacy, he returns yet again. At this point, I have no idea what it would take to stop this guy. About the two things I can see right now are
a. In previous years the immigration issue was a big deal early on in the campaign, in the last couple of months it faded as an issue and both parties ended up chasing the Hispanic vote, the hell with immigration.

b. Women are likely to dislike Trump the more they see him. His bragging, arrogant manner seems especially anathema to what women want in a leader.

I have no idea if this analysis will work, but that's where I am now. So far, Trump has survived all the mishaps that are supposedly fatal to a candidate.

@hingehead,
I'm pretty much at the point where I'll go to the border to help build a border to keep Americans out. I'm seeing some really ugly, racist crap on my FB feed.

@ehBeth,
If tRump is elected I will only want to live in Canada 4 years. Surely you can put up with me for 4 years? On the other hand with Putins help we may not be able to get the wanabe dictator out for years.

The only hope for America if Trump gets in is if Putin breaks his neck trying to ride the rodeo. This robs Trump of the guy who's he's used to giving him orders, so Trump will just quit.

@cicerone imposter,
He did yell at a baby-he kicked the mother out of one of his rallies after pretending he was going to be nice about the baby's crying. Total 13 year old punk type stuff.
