This is it. Trump can say anything that pops into his head and they cheer and say he's tough and speaks the truth despite the mountain of evidence that screams "no way."

The stupid media let him run wild with no tough questions or follow up for far too long because he was good for ratings. Now they are pretty ineffective when they try to actually act like journalists.

Best thing now will be for Hillary to mess him up at debates. He might be too afraid to debate her though. And his supporters will cheer that too.
Teams lie, sometimes for good reasons, sometimes for bad. They do it to get an advantage while they look at the trade market or just because they can

I wonder if Trump will be able to get away with turning the national presidential debates into a circus the same way he's done with the GOP debates.

I'm sure Trump will do his best to avoid talking policy and issues with Clinton. He'll continue to point out how "American doesn't win anymore", "America is going to hell", etc. while Clinton hopefully pulls out the facts and specifics.

Hillary's experience and knowledge are her biggest strengths, which Trump simply can not match.

True, but it's also those "experiences" Trump will hammer away at unmercifully.

David Brooks on Trump: "...running for [president] with less preparation than most of us would undertake to buy a sofa."

Hacker group “Anonymous” claimed it had hacked Donald Trump Thursday afternoon, showcasing their alleged findings in a YouTube clip.

“Donald Trump has set his ambitions on the White House in order to promote an agenda of fascism and xenophobia as well as the religious persecution of Muslims through totalitarian policies," says the masked speaker in the video.

They say that the time is nigh to unite to “fight fascism” and "to stop any proposed Fourth Reich by the fascist Donald Trump.”

Trump’s campaign issued this statement: "The government and law enforcement authorities are seeking the arrest of the people responsible for attempting to illegally hack Mr. Trump’s accounts and telephone information.”

A government official confirmed to ABC News that federal authorities are investigating.

Anonymous released what it claimed was Trump's Social Security number, and a number it claims is his cell phone number as well as public information such as his birth date, children’s names, and company address in addition to outdated information such as his legal representation.

Probably. But either way he's a good man who loves his party and his country, and he's doing the right thing even though the right thing is voting for a gross douchebag.

Trump doesn't get to debate Hillary. Nor Cruz.

Gonna be Kasich or Ryan.
