The GOP is a group of people who think JEB! with his $130 million spent for 6% of the vote were a good investment.

And they want to talk about how awful Trump is as a businessman?

The same people that think dividing the electorate is the best path to victory?

Or that the best way to "expand the party" is trying to sink the Front runner?

Sorry boys, I wouldn't let you run a lemonade stand.

Donald Trump will give the GOP what it needs - A Housecleaning!

He brought down the tone of the election. One need only point to the fact that he calls his opponents liars.

And that's exactly what most Sanders supporters say about Hillary. "Liar" and "Untrustworthy" (Polls confirm this one)

He is a hater. He says hateful things about people.

Ask Chelsea Clinton about that. She spent her speech last night calling all Republicans "'Racist, Homophobic and Sexist"

Trump is a divider, not some who unites.

The Sanders people and the Obama people draw a distinction between Rich and Poor, Main Street and Wall Street, the haves and the have nots. They vilify CEO's, companies, corporations and everyone else with money.

The Republicans, like the Democrats, have a problem.

Both parties are strong, but the people who support them are falling away. Democrats because they elected Obama with great expectations, and were disappointed. Their choice this time is an unappealing liar, thus the rise of Sanders.

The GOP on the other had spent 2 mid-term elections (2010 and 2014) telling everyone they would fix problems and repeal the left's damaging legislation.

They did NOTHING.

The GOP promised fiscal responsibility. The last budget they passed shows they lied.

The GOP said it would "stand up" to Obama. Each and every time they sat down and shut up when he spoke.

The GOP would back down each and every time they

I watched my local coverage of news up here in Massachusetts.

First story, Hillary is such a inspiration! She talked about women and jobs and her agenda.

Next story, not quite as flattering, but of course followed with "Bernie doesn't have a numerical chance".

Then the Trump non-stories. The nonsense about the Klan, highlights of what Rubio said over and over (As if Marco Fucking Rubio was even a player tomorrow).

BBC America has on a Political expert - a Liberal from the Daily Beast. She laments about his comments about "Banning Muslims" (Half the story), about Mexicans all being rapists (Again, half the story).

I hope he slams the fucking critics tomorrow. It would be as delightful as

Hillary will announce next week that Liz Warren or even Bernie Sanders will be her V.P. Pick. She will get to do what she wants, when she wants, and her V.P. will languish in the Senate, or at funerals, without any affect on policy what so ever!

And the Sander's voters will fall for it by giving up their vote, and Hillary will once again prove she can out fox ANYONE.

If Trump wins:

We will never have to look at another Clinton again. Hillary is done, Bill is proven to be inconsequential. Chelsea isn't charismatic enough to be compared to either her mother or her father. She will wind up being just a human Oddity whose claim to fame is her famous parents.

BLM disrupted a Clinton event yesterday. Looks like the DNC an BLM will be breaking all ties soon. Gone will be the grip small, vocal voices that oftentimes should just be ignored and hopefully America will get back to work.

Sanders won't be a problem in a few years. He will either be retired before 2020 or will be pushing up daisies.

With his attack on Bernie Sander's economic plan and the burying o

Let’s face it, people abuse things. Let them take a day off work, they want two. Give them free ice-cream; they will be back for more. That is reality. Reality is not where modern Socialists are living. They are under a number of false impressions.

Socialist programs should work for the truly needy; those who can’t get out of their wheelchair due to accident or illness. Being too fat is NOT a disease, but a lifestyle choice.

Socialists need to get the idea out of their head that if you give people the opportunity to not work they are somehow going to sit home and open their creativity and become artists and poets. Chances are they are going to be fat and stoned and even more useless by cre

Fact #1: Voting levels are up 33% for the Republicans and Down 20% for the Democrats in Iowa, NH, NV and SC over 2008. Clearly "Feel the Bern" doesn't have as much support as "Hope and Change"

Fact #2: Hillary has more Super Delegates than Bernie. Hillary has been charming them for months. Why? In the end, Hillary is a Democrat. Bernie is an Independent who joined the party to become President. You're "one of the gang" but like Trump in the Republican party, you're "not one of us".

Bernie has support among many groups, but fails in others. Women, African Americans and even some of the Unions are now split, not consolidated as they were in 2008.

Unlike 2008, there is a large chunk (nearly

I work a very large corporation that employs many subcontractors. It became law in my state that employers provide their employees with five (5) paid sick days a year.

Did the CEO make less money?

No.

Did the Company have to fork out more money?

No.

The workers got stiffed, as predicted.

Two contractors I spoke with told me their company handled this new law in different ways.

First company used to provide one week vacation after 1 year, 2 weeks paid vacation after 3 years. There were no paid holidays. If you didn't work, you didn't get paid. Now that's ended. You get earned "Personal Time Off" days. You earn them at a rate of 1 hour for every 30 hours worked. For 40 hours a week, th

Eight reasons why Bernie Sanders will never become President

Before reading this, I want everyone to do ONE thing: Research. Please for the love of God and all that is holy, do some background checks on your candidates and the issues and policies they tout.

Let’s look specifically at Bernie Sanders:

First: "Single payer" was looked at in Bernie's home state of Vermont. It failed in December 2014. So when people tell you it's going to work this time, they don't know the facts.
