Trump is finally spending money on ads, and is preparing to spend 2 million a week. Since he announced his candidacy, Trump has only spent 200,000 on ads (primarily radio ads in Iowa)

You do realize that Trump will sign every single Bill regarding restriction of internet rights and will propose his own to further ruin the internet right? These bills will not go away after he's gone as well. I know none of you neets care much about public issues because you never leave your basement. If you vote for Trump what you live for will be destroyed.
>>
Being an outsider doesn't make you good. Voting for Trump is like investing in one of Trump's business plans. It sounds good on the outset but he has a long history of fucking over people who support him. It says something about Americans as a whole that we keep falling for his shit. Perhaps we deserve the assfucking he will provide, much in the same way we deserve Transformers films till the end of time for continuing to go see those pieces of shit.

>>
>>12216
I'm floored by all the people who think that the fact that he's rich and paying for his campaign makes him incorruptible. He's openly admitted to unfairly influencing politicians for his own personal benefit. What in the world makes people think that he'll suddenly stop doing that once he gets more power and influence and the process becomes exponentially more convenient and less expensive? This isn't a candidate breaking free from corporate influence. This is cutting out the middle man and letting the corporation run the show.
>>
>>12294
This. Trump supporters are honestly delusional. They believe Trump is Jesus because he's not afraid to sound as stupid as they are and spouts their ridiculous dreams like they're actually viable.
>>
>>12294
You can apply this same logic to literally every human being on the planet that could ever potentially run for public office and you won't get anywhere from it because unless Jesus himself is running then you need to take a leap of faith regardless.

The appeal of Trump is that he comes out and says he knows how every politician is bought and sold because he's personally bought and sold them himself, so to get what needs to be done for America you should elect him because he can put the best people in positions of authority due to their merits and not what he personally owes them.

So I guess you can follow the le evil rich man line of thinking as far as it will get you, which is nowhere because every other candidate is relying on le evil rich man to fund their campaigns, at least everyone but Trump.

So go ahead and piss your votes away on Mickey Mouse or whatever fantasy figure that exists free from any hint of corruption in your mind.

>>12297
>t. Low Information Voter

Sounds like someone never read The Art of the Deal |:^)
>>
>>12299
But knowing how politicians get bought and sold doesn't magically mean you won't do it yourself. Who doesn't want MORE money? Certainly not the guy who brags about how much money he has. There's definitely people less cooperative with corporate interests than others, and it's about discerning that. And I don't see why we should find Trump to be particularly void of corporate interests.

Different person than who you were responding to, by the way.
>>
>>12299
>You can apply this same logic to literally every human being on the planet that could ever potentially run for public office
Yeah except it might not be wise if you're not talking about a literal business man who does actually that. And why does him saying that other people are bought and sold mean he's not? He may not be because he's the one who does the buying. Is that the kind of person you want to be president? A greedy businessman who's made banks on such things as creating beauty pageants?
>>
>>12294
Trump is all about ego. He doesn't need more money. To feed his ego he must be the best president ever.
>>
>>12309
This, the man is 70 years old and a literal billionaire. I find it funny when people say he trying to do all this as a scheme to make more money.

For fucking what? He wants to upgrade his toilet seat from gold to platinum? Plus there are a million different ways to get money that are less of a pain in the ass than headlining a presidential campaign.
>>
>>12306
If you wanted to view Trump through a purely corporate/profit driven view, then wouldn't it make more sense for him to actually come through on his promises, to an extent, given that his main priority is branding, and by preserving and strengthening the Trump brand he not only strengthens himself, but his family as well, since they share his brand.

If he actually wanted to parlay this presidency into stronger financial and political prospects for his brand/family, then actually running the executive branch successfully and with the blessing of the people is most likely to be the best way to do that.

Sure, he could get into office and sell everyone down the river, but then his brand is in the gutter and so is his family name. The most profitable direction for him to take is to actually do a good job for the country as president.

>>12308
Yes, this is literally the person I want to be president.

I also don't think anyone besides Trump can beat Hillary, and I super duper don't want her in office no matter what.

Plus, if it wasn't for Trump we might very well be looking at ¡Yeb! as the nominee, and another presidency under the Bush/Clinton cartel.
>>
>>12310
You know, all those corrupt businessmen who buy politicians? The corruption he likes to rag against is committed by people older than him. For fuck's sake, the Koch brothers are 75 and 80 and they're STILL trying to make more money.
>>
>>12313
All those guys are irrelevant.

The actual people to worry about are the banks, as they real life own the country, and with every bust/boom cycle they own more and more of it.
>>
>>12313
Those people buy politicians, not become them.

Again, there are easier ways to make money than become president, or even just running as one.
>>
>>12311
Branding is not everything in business. Making an environment that's easy for you to take advantage of (which Trump is not shy of doing) is extremely beneficial. He could easily separate his services from his brand if it became too toxic, but being in that much control, and knowing you'll be able to capitalize on your success while having insider knowledge is really beneficial.

In any case, I doubt it could even hurt his brand. How many political dynasties have you seen fall from one member not following through on their promises? Because I haven't seen any.
>>
>>12322
Perhaps "easier", but this is a whole other ballpark when it comes to manipulating the system to your liking. Trump has claimed to have bought politicians himself, so he's clearly got the incentive to manipulate things. And this way he has potentially more power than any competitors.
>>
>>12310
Being rich doesn't mean you want less money. It's actually the opposite. Being rich means you want more of it and you want to hoard all of it that you have.
>>
>>12202
you don't understand why trump is popular and proabably what this country needs if not the Bern man.
>>
>>12311
>The most profitable direction for him to take is to actually do a good job for the country as president.
You say that like it's something you can just decide to do.
>>
>>12323
>Branding is not everything in business
Branding is literally literally LITERALLY 50% of Trump's business.

But it's not even a matter of not delivering on his promises, as long as it actually seems like he's trying. People just want someone to try, and most give up long before that.

And sure, maybe it won't "hurt" his brand to fail, but success would do a hell of a lot more than failure, so why would a guy like Trump not try to succeed, especially a guy like Trump?
>>
>>12325
Unless you wanna argue the man is Darth Sidious (hey, NBC tried to call him a supervillain!), I see no fucking reason for him to run as president himself. Work from the shadow manipulating a face who has to do all the busy work? Yeah, totally, but straight up running as president? You're in it for more.

>>12326
I'm pretty sure being rich just means you have an arbitrary amount of money that is deemed more than your average joe. Not whatever the fuck you're saying.
>>
I honestly can't tell if people who say they support Trump are lying or not because they all sound fucking insane.

>>12351
He's influencing politics, you dummy. Nobody would touch the shit he's brought up with a 12 foot pole if not for him, plus he's engaging a huge segment of traditional non-voters, which means he's getting more Americans to actually engage themselves in politics.

Also shit like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHrW_ZMcEoc&feature=youtu.be

Nobody would be talking about how Bill Clinton is a rapist pedophile if Trump wasn't around.
>>
>>12351
The man is influencing the media. Have you completely not seen how he's worked things up to this point?

Trump says something "outrageous" and "politically incorrect", but also with a level of truth to it. The media then jumps on him like rabid wolves, but no matter what, he stays unapologetic. This adds wood to the fire and they just keep talking about it. This will go for a weeks, until it starts to die down a little.

And then you know what he does?

He says something again!

The whole process repeats itself, and Trump stays in the public eye 24/7, and all the while, his poll numbers keep upping themselves.

That's still a bad idea. You do not help these people by cutting off their internet. ISIS shuts down and prohibits the internet in their own areas because they don't want the public knowing about the bullshit they're doing or contacting the world at large to show everyone about the bullshit they're doing. ISIS is hurt more by the civilians in the area becoming reporters for their atrocities than they are helped by online recruitment. You arm people by giving them information, not taking it away. It's a stupid idea that doesn't take into account what's really happening and the innocent people on our side it would affect.

I find it hard to believe that people still follow Trump, when all he does is offer simplistic explanations for what he plans to do, and sometimes none at all. Such as:

>how will he deport 11 million illegal immigrants when we cannot even handle deporting more than a thousand a day
>how will he bring back manufacturing jobs (or even create jobs through his policies)


Also, his tax plan is basically another windfall for the wealthiest Americans. While middle class and lower classes will pay less in taxes, the biggest benefits go towards the rich, and will create a large deficit. He will be creating a reported 10 trillion dollar deficit over a decade, and he doesn't even plan on cutting military spending, the biggest expenditure.

Of course most of the other candidates are liars and foolish, but Trump is basically leading them. Strangely, I actually agree with deporting Muslims though, I'm getting really fucking tired of them.
>>
>>12379

You're fucking delusional, actual shilling is incredibly rare, even on places such as reddit. Ever hear of Occam's razor?

>>
>>12401

Post a transcript of the full quote, from the original source. Then tell me if you still believe that
>>
>>12410
Trump's entire campaign is based on The Art of the Deal, so you're not going to get major details on things that he has no intention of going into detail over because they don't represent his actual stance on the matter. Everything he's doing is a trick designed to make hysterically weak people think he's some hard handed nut, which puts him in a position to bargain more effectively for what he actually wants, but even his vague positions are just common sense and based in historical precedent for the US, like protectionism, border enforcement, and our existing deportation force.

Also, fuck taxes, who gives a shit? The government is absolutely shit at spending money, so why bother funding their dozens of unconstitutional, wasteful agencies? Fuck 'em, cut taxes and let people spend money on improving the economy instead of dumping another trillion into the department of education so they can annoy some fagola who has to teach a class full of morons with the new full retard educational standards mandated by the feds.

It's like nobody understands that you can cut spending either. It's really stupid. You think the federal government needs $3.5 trillion dollarydoos every year? Fuck no, they just say so because we're all dumb enough to give them that much money in the first place.
>>
>>12415

So let's say we have it your way, and we cut the entire education funding for the US. Tell me how we're supposed to be competitive globally without an educational system.

Also here is government spending for 2016. Tell me what you would fix in order to make America "great again".

>>
>>12416
The states are in charge of education, silly, along with most of that other shit, by law.

And you can remove every single agency from federal jurisdiction that isn't explicitly granted to them by the constitution, as per the law via the 10th amendment.
>>
>>12417

Where do you think that federal education money goes?

Also, the federal agencies we have are constitutionally bound, so I think your last statement is redundant.

Hi, the state pays for that stuff.

>>12422
So why bother with the middle man at all then? All the department of ed does it soak up money that could be used in the actual schools.

Also, no, we have plenty of agencies that exist outside the parameters of the constitution that can easily be picked apart and handed over to the states. EPA, DEA, department of energy, department of agriculture, etc.

You can cry about it if you want, but powers that exist within the federal government that aren't written into the constitution are not the jurisdiction of the federal government at all for any reason ever, so you can easily gut them and either hand them over to the states or dump them completely, either way it saves you money in addition to lessening the power of the federal government, which is the entire reason we have a constitution in the first place.

Kek.

Hes implying that ALL of the immigrants coming over the border are rapists, drug dealers, felons, and other variations of terrible people.

You get cut off by some douche in a mercedes, you flip him off and call him a prick.

A work truck cuts you off, and you want to ship them across the border.


The people who are out working on the roads, buildings, cleaning things, cooking, and doing other various jobs you asshats are too lazy to do are being lumped together as the problem in America. When in reality, its America as a whole. Its the faggots sitting on /b/ rolling for dubs, its the idiots on tumblr fighting for social justice, its the retards on facebook liking and sharing thinking it will help save a child dying from cancer, or arguing over starbucks bullshit. You wanna make America great again? Stop being lazy asshats placing blame on issues today on immigrants, focus on issues effecting everyone and not just you, think about the world outside our fucking borders and why people are fleeing here of all fucking places.

Who the fuck cares, it's literally literally LITERALLY in the constitution that the states can do whatever they want, and if you don't like it then you can go to another state.

Sounds like you're the one that doesn't know anything about the actual laws of this country, you walnut.

I don't give a single fuck how any agencies work, they're illegal and a waste of money and liberty.

Who cares, they're not even Americans.

>too lazy to do
Good joke, more like companies realized they could bribe congress to truck in people that will do the jobs American workers will do for 1/2 the price so that nobody can compete and actually make a decent living.

What happened to the American pride in having a country that allowed for their workers to have the highest standards of living in the world? Are you stupid fags really that easy to manipulate that some retards in the media can convince you that our worker, who once made the finest quality products in the world, are just too lazy to work now?

Right now we have a department standardizing that all areas teach the same stupid bullshit, while spending more money per student than any other nation.

The nightmare scenarios people cry about as a result of deregulation already exist with the regulation we have, and get worse the more regulation we add.

>All that Sanders/Trump esque protectionist nonsense

>Idiots like you are the reason the middle class is dead.
The "middle class" you're referring to was the result of protectionist policies that were bound to fail as the world became more interconnected and globalized. Instead of rising to meet this change, politicians attempted to dig in their heels and pound the American drum, all the while insisting Americans get special economic privileges simply for being American, regardless of other countries developing and obtaining levels/quality of production that matched, if not surpassed American production.

The same people who bitch about American workers once upon a time being the cream of the crop before "muh foreigners" are the same people who bitch about things like Uber because they offer better services and allow people options other than overpriced establishment goods and services.

>The "middle class" you're referring to was the result of protectionist policies that were bound to fail as the world became more interconnected and globalized

Globalization is a choice, not a right.

We can easily close our economic doors and manufacture everything we need and want right here, and provide American workers with actual good wages to live on, while our media propaganda spreads the American word to the entire globe, making them want to buy our shit while we buy hardly any of theirs.

What do we get from globalization anyway? Our lower and middle classes are dying out, while only the upper class benefits as a direct result. Eventually you won't have enough people in this country making enough money to buy all those shoddily made products that get trucked in from overseas, as the upper class gets hit with more tax burdens to support the dying class, eventually hitting a ceiling as the entire thing collapses, taking the rest of the world's economy with it. Who cares if we can buy products for a few pennies less when nobody has any money to spend?

It's not sustainable, and best case scenario we'll go back to feudalism where we're just left with dirt poor peasants and the ruling elite that govern and/or subsidize them.
>>
>>12532
The EU did everything they could to break down nationalist barriers, and sat back and did nothing as millions of dirt poor negroes and arabs stormed their gates to further dilute the nations of Europe.

There's nothing nationalist about it.

>>12533
>Globalization is a choice, not a right.
What are you smoking? Where was "right" ever mentioned?

>We can easily close our economic doors and manufacture everything we need and want right here
Except that people want to be able to exchange goods/services/culture over national borders without bureaucratic middle man sticking their fingers into the pie. Globalization wasn't a mistake, it's part of the natural evolution of our society.

>while our media propaganda spreads the American word to the entire globe, making them want to buy our shit while we buy hardly any of theirs.
>Actually advocating for the dissemination of nationalistic propaganda
smdh tbhqh fam

>What do we get from globalization anyway? Our lower and middle classes are dying out, while only the upper class benefits as a direct result.
Because the upper classes have more access to globalization and actively seek to limit it for those beneath them with protectionist policies. The same people who argue about bringing jobs back home and recapturing the glory days of "American productivity" make a shitload of money overseas while advocating for policies that absolutely murder domestic production and businesses. Opening up more markets to American businesses to places other than America is actually beneficially because it increases the pool of potential customers and access to resources.

>It's not sustainable, and best case scenario we'll go back to feudalism where we're just left with dirt poor peasants and the ruling elite that govern and/or subsidize them.
It's entirely sustainable and fossils like yourself cannot kick and scream your way out. Globalization and the internet have been an enormous economic boon to people all across the world, including those in the US. You cry about elites having feudal like control over populaces and then cry for "leadership" that enacts protectionist policies that isolate people from the rest of the world and leave them dependent on said leadership.

>The EU did everything they could to break down nationalist barriers
>There's nothing nationalist about it.
The EU is a new form Nationalism. It's attempting to transplant nationalism from smaller countries with one big trans-European nationalism, again, like the US Federal Gov't is to US states.

The reason you claim it isn't nationalism is because it's nationalism you don't like. If you would, however, come to realize that all forms of nationalism are fucking cancer, you'd see this.

He may have been born rich, but it doesn't take a economics major to realize that it takes a couple brain cells to turn "moderately well off" to "incredibly prosperous".
>>
The thing is, if you want to get money out of politics Trump really is your best choice, considering how he's already rich and cannot be bought off. And since all other candidates (besides maybe Bernie) are already bought and paid for, Trump may be our only option since he's the only one we don't KNOW is a corrupt stooge.

The problem is whether Trump would actually do something to permanently remove money from politics if he's elected. It's doubtful he could even accomplish much without support from congress. The president alone can't do stuff like term limits on congressmen and limiting/shortening the campaigning season.

All Trump would have to do is call out corrupt people in Washington when he's president, and shrink government.

Trump IS the money in politics!

What incentive does Trump have to get money out of politics? Do you think he's just that benevolent? Do you think he cares about the little guy who DOESN'T have the money to buy politicians? If anything, he has incentive to make it EASIER to bribe politicians.

Trump has money and influence so he can't be paid off by people with money or influence, on top of the disdain he's expressed for professional money movers over the decades.

It's not that difficult a concept, but I guess we can always look towards our esteemed candidate ____________ who isn't running off of donation money. S/he's our only hope.
>>
Trump is literally proof of an America in crisis as the economic center of the world starts to shift from west to far east.

America is tearing itself apart.
>>
>>12786
Instead of being paid off by other people he's just going to do what benefits his own personal bottom line. He IS the corporate influence. He IS the one who buys politicians. He IS the problem of money in politics. Do you think he's suddenly going to become an honest man who plays fair just if he wins the presidency? Hell no. Electing him isn't solving corrupt politics. It's just cutting out the middle man and making corruption more efficient.

Trump's always been fairly honest, I don't know why people take his persona at face value when he literally wrote a book about his methods. I guess pearl clutching wimps going into hyperventilation over his candidacy is what he wants though.

On top of all this, the 1 way you can discern a man's character is through his children, and Trump's kids are all pretty fantastic if you ask me, even his grandkids seem great, so I'll take that as the best view into his morals as a person.

I guess you can keep crying about Trump all the way up to the presidency though, since obviously someone has to.

>“He declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind …The essence of his doctrine was violence and lust: to exalt the brutal over the spiritual part of human nature … As the essential principle of his faith is the subjugation of others by the sword; it is only by force, that his false doctrines can be dispelled, and his power annihilated.”

-Ben Franklin

>“The ambassador answered us that [the right] was founded on the Laws of the Prophet, that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have answered their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as prisoners, and that every Mussulman who should be slain in battle was sure to go to Paradise.”

And then then 5 years later the Tripoli war kicked off.

Also, that treaty only states the official position of the country towards religion and Islam, not the actual opinions of the inhabitants of said country.

Note how we had virtually no Muslims until recent history. It wasn't by accident.

They would have had to fight another war over slavery if they wanted to abolish it, which means they would divide the country yet again and open it for either dissolution or outside conquest.

>>12970
>Yeah Thomas Jefferson couldn't have gotten rid of his own slaves without a war right?
To be fair, the laws in Jefferson's day made manumission as difficult as possible. In Viginia, from 1723 to 1782 a special act of the legislature was required to be allowed to free one's slaves. That law was repealed, but as of 1806 freed slaves had to be escorted out of the state at their former owner's expense. Freed slaves from other states were forbidden from immigrating, so free black populations were necessarily small and grandfathered-in. There were also few protections to prevent freed slaves from being kidnapped and re-sold.
So in addition to the cost, freeing one's slaves in early 19th century Virginia made little guarantee that they wouldn't be immediately re-enslaved.

The government routinely disregards the will of the people whenever it feels like it, that's why we have guns, because government is inherently corrupt and needs to be removed routinely, or it would be if we actually lived in a free country still.

How can we do that though? If only there were some way that the people could choose who is in charge of the government...

If you're implying voting does shit all 9 times out of 10 then you're retarded.

A government as pervasively corrupt and all-reaching as the current US government can't be voted out, more likely than not, especially given that the US government is the de facto most powerful entity on the planet, and has no incentive to lessen it's grip on either it's influence or treasure.

Jesus christ, so voting for sanders has nothing to do with his policies or his viewpoints towards corporate greed for you. I guess I shouldn't be surprised if the major reason you're not voting for Hillary is that she's been in some idiotic scandals blown out of proportion by the 65+ republican population with dementia. How can you not see how stupid this is, stop watching fox news for 5 seconds and hopefully you will. Uneducated voters like you sicken me, I honestly can't believe we have such stupid people in our country.

Except that most countries are starting to feel a disdain for the EU. The European Union is basically Germany and maybe France/UK imposing unnecessary regulation on other nations for their own good. It is a nice idea, but ultimately unsustainable - it will lose most of its power in a decade or two.
