I don't claim that the media actually likes Trump, other than that they won't him to keep winning so that he can stick around for ratings. But you seriously don't find anything bizarre or alarming about his comments concerning David Duke and the KKK? His response to that fiasco was one of the dumbest things I've seen him do, and that is culled from an impressive list of one dumb thing after another.

I'm no fan of Trump, and he handled it a bit awkwardly, but its been way overblown, imo.

He disavowed them 3 times prior to the interview and just disavowed them again on GMA. How many times does he need to be asked?

It's odd because he condemned him prior to and after.

I honestly can't explain why he didn't do so on the Sunday show.

As far as the average American voter, who is like a country bumpkin who has just set foot onto Times Square for the first time, is concerned, you're probably right.

I've been a Kasich supporter since October, and that was due to a combination of hearing him sound like the only adult in the room at the first Republican debate and by then following that up with some simple Internet research.

I didn't need no fancy politicking to convince me. With information technology so accessible nowadays, I find it even less of an excuse for Americans to still be so grossly misinformed and so grossly misguided, simply because they're like little kittens who focus solely on the string being dangled in front of them instead of the big picture.

It's just fascinating to me to hear so many people now saying how Kasich is the only reasonable choice. And anyone who doesn't think so is a dumbass for not realizing it.

Props to a Bham and Gramps (though Granps jumped on a few others throughout the process). The Kasich thread got a mere four pages of discussion, half of it not rated to him. Some of the people putting down others here didn't even weigh in on the matter. That's how sure they were. I'll bump the thread.

He said he interpreted various and asked for a list. Given his statements both before and after it is clear to me it was a misunderstanding of the line of questioning. And has been seized upon by his opponents to smear him.

There's only one group of supporters I would consider veritable "dumbasses," although "losers" is my preferred term.

If Kasich runs again though, we'll make sure he has sparklers in his hand every time he speaks. Maybe some party whistles.

I find it more bizarre that anyone would actually care.

I think Kasich will be alright as far as when he has decided to get into the race. He is definitely my favorite candidate thus far and if he could manage to win the nomination, I think he would stand an excellent chance in getting elected.

Trump should not even disavow the KKK until everyone else, especially race baiter, Hillary, disavows the violent BLACK LIVES MATTER and BLACK PANTHERS.

Excellent strategy. If being a GOP campaign strategist isn't your day job, I suggest you quit whatever it is you're doing and focus solely on that.

This isn't your grandfather's Klan. These guys are paper tigers compared to BLM even. They don't kill anybody, and they don't destroy property like BLM.

Rumors that Trump will announce at his press conference tonight that the race is over and that he will no longer participate in debates.

Stop being ridiculous.
There is very littlw POTUS can do without the support of Congress.
You are referring to EO's . O hasn't used as many an several presidents.
EO's such as O's immigration EO can be over ridden very easily if Congress wanted to.
