If Trump survives this...

Millions will decide not to vote for the Democrat when they are hammered by his attack ads.

Just imagine millions of people seeing clips of Hillary saying one thing and then saying the complete opposite...of her constant lying through her teeth...of her saying, "What difference does it make?".

Her poll numbers will drop like a rock.

Heck, it'll be like what Obama did to Romney...but multiplied by some huge number. And Trump won't even have to lie about it like Obama and his buddies did.

Yes - there will be ads knocking Clinton. No doubt about it. But those attack ads will pale in scope and magnitude and the damage they will cause compared to the attack ads on Trump which will scathe living hell out of people who are not wing nuts. Trump will not have a chance.

I'll agree to disagree.

But this is all just speculation since we don't even know if Trump will be the Republican nominee.

What do you think will stop Trump from the nomination? He has defied all predictions of a blow-up and seems to have that teflon coating that all politicians want but few really have. And leading the polls by ten to fifteen or more points with no real large supporting organization at this point is rather remarkable.
 
I still can't believe Trump hasn't dried up and blown away by now, but he hasn't. I thought he was just a "summer fling." I wouldn't place any bets on anything, much less the outcome of an election between Trump and Clinton.
 
Let's get a grip, folks. Trump's getting about the same level of support as Bernie Sanders.

You're the one who needs to get a grip. Sanders is falling in the polls. Trump has led the back in all the polls since he announced he was running.

His negatives are out of sight.

Almost as bad as Hillary's negatives. And STILL Trump leads the pack.

The only way he'll be our next president is if the GOP found a way to restrict voters to only far-right Republican primary voters.

Trump's appeal isn't just the vast Republican conservative bloc (which by the way makes up the majority of America.) Trump enjoys the support of blue collar blue dog Democrats, kind of like his anti-establishment predecessor Ronald Reagan.

The only way Hillary wins against Trump is if the Democrats register the entire country of CHINA and ships them all here and forces them to vote for Hillary.

I'll tell you why he hasn't.

He is the best qualified man for the job, in terms of experience and temperament. He is a leader and the Republicans haven't really had a leader since Ronald Reagan.

Oh...I don't know what could stop him, but I'm not going to predict anything except that Hillary will be the Democratic nominee.

I don't think you would lose money if that was your bet.

They don't need ads, he's doing it all out in the open for everyone to see. And his numbers keep going up.
 
It seems Hillary is getting kind of worried about Trump, too.

Until Monday, when Donald J. Trump proposed a ban on Muslims entering the United States, Hillary Clinton could hardly keep herself from laughing at the mention of his name. “I’m sorry, I can’t help it,” she told ABC News on Sunday, letting out a giggle that made advisers squirm.

She is no longer laughing.

At a town hall here on Wednesday, Mrs. Clinton delivered her most damning, direct criticism of Mr. Trump, saying that he traffics “in prejudice and paranoia,” and that his Muslim proposal was “not only shameful, it’s dangerous.”

But Mrs. Clinton also strove to recognize something stirring in the electorate that Mr. Trump had clearly tapped into. “It’s O.K., it’s O.K. to be afraid,” she said. “When bad things happen, it does cause anxiety and fear,” she added. “But then you pull yourself together and, especially, if you want to be a leader of our country, and you say: ‘O.K., what are we going to do about it? How are we going to be prepared?’”

So...without even trying, he is getting her to change her tune. What's going to happen if he becomes the Republican nominee and they go head-to-head?

There will be ads on both sides.

And I am thankful that Trumps numbers keep going up as I dearly want him to get the GOP nomination and provide the enema the party needs to rid itself of right libertarians and tea party know nothings.

Again, the old tactic of pretending not to have read what's posted does not work anymore. Especially when you quote the post you're supposedly responding to. I answered your question with source. Unlike your argument, mine comports with the source I posted. Yours, not so much.

Be clear, is it your position that the majority of those German nationals allowed immigration into the US during the WWII years were not either Jews fleeing the Nazis or scientists and professionals the US wanted to add to their arsenal?
