I believe that she was sincere in wishing to be VP. Trump's ultimate intentions are less clear. I do see his campaign as, first and foremost, a social experiment.
Many GOP voters are fed up with the Washington GOP establishment. Backroom deals. Chamber of Commerce running the agenda. McConnell and Boehner are spineless. This is why Trump is resonating. My step-dad who is a blue collar Democrat (Basically wants to protect his state job pension), his evangelical daughter, his apolitical millennial son, we had a BBQ at Big Bass and all anybody could talk about was Trump. America is really sick of the crony-capitalism and political correctness. He's hitting a nerve as Kasich said.
On the other side Sanders is tapping into that same feeling.
Americans are tired of viewing their politicians as NASCAR drivers with corporate donors stamped all over them (Wouldn't that be great)
Folks get that sense from Hillary and Jeb (who is down to 7% in the latest NBC GOP poll)

So far, Trump has offered next to no policy positions. As they say in Texas, he's all hat and no cattle.
What policies has Trump advocated that you support? How do you feel he would handle foreign policy? SCOTUS nominations?
The name calling and the bluster will have to be replaced with concrete ideas.
Our system is completely broken and a joke, but he's made it into something even worse. I am entertained because I'm hoping he takes it so far, that maybe something or someone reasonable can rise from it.
The former is a legitimate issue, though not one that Trump is going to solve. Repealing Citizens United is the best way to begin starting to deal with it.America is really sick of the crony-capitalism and political correctness.

The second one is absolute bullshit. Donald Trump isn't speaking truth to power, he's not "telling it like it is," he's not fighting political correctness. He's simply being a massive asshole. There's a rather large difference that pretty much every single Trump supporter is blind to.
Yelling "Mexicans are rapists" shouldn't be interpreted as a breath of fresh air flying in the face of crony capitalism. It's just a loud rich guy being a piece of shit on your television.

If Trump can't answer how many dead civilians he'll deliver in Iraq, he's not to be taken seriously. This is important stuff, guys.
-That means nothing, that's not policy.He's laid out some strokes on Foreign Policy that I agree with
- Full support for Israel
-Using America's financial power to leverage foreign governments and regimes.
-Getting serious about patrolling the southern border and providing added security.
-Scrapping the ACA.
Many of the forum users think he jumped the shark on his Mexican comments. If that disqualifies him in your eyes so be it. But right now he has fed the red meat to the GOP voters who view this primary as a referendum on 'immigration'
And the idea that he's not a crony capitalist is fucking hysterical. He's a dirtbag rich capitalist all the way. His White House would be focused on improving things for the rich and only the rich.

Well ISIS makes videos of dead civilians weekly. It's like a horror movie. 19 women the other for refusing to participate in Sexual Jihad. And the latest video from one of their branches in Afghanistan basically blowing up 12 people.
I'm for a serious air campaign against ISIS. We do make strikes. But on average it is about 7 a day. During the Kosovo War we hit the Serbs 138 times a day.
You've done enough in the Middle East already, you can't possibly believe that more US intervention will improve the situation.
How on earth did you come to that conclusion? How is opposing yet another US intervention in the region the same as wanting to let 'ISIS fester like a cancer?'
You said the US shouldn't tinker in the Middle East. So its that or you're counting on another regional power to take them out.
