.....or at least, Trump has to 'look into them' to figure it out:

no wonder Mitch McConnell declared that the GOP will drop Trump 'like a hot rock' if nominated, and Carson opined that the electorate isn't so stupid as to elect Trump.

Wow, so Trump paraodies a Hillary quote and you get all upset at Trump and read hidden meaning in it. And one runs away but another joins in... Sen Jeff Session endorses.

Jeff Sessions. He might not win re-election in his own state. Strong slate of loony-tunes, has-beens and outright bigots lining up for your boy!

at least I'm not backing bigoted fascists. I can live with your goofy taunts. It isn't so black and white, given I've said I'd consider Kasich, especially against Hillary. I'm just not supporting a lying bigot, with zero personal ethics and a long track record of swindling people. Sorry, not going to see me on that bandwagon.

It's not a Dems good, Reps bad problem or visa versa. It's now a
Trump's bad problem both parties are dealing with now. Even the Republican Party hates Trump.

Lets correct that a wee bit, the Rep. elite hate Trump. What both the Dems and the Reps are now realizing is how out of touch they are with the electorate. If anything Trump is doing good precisely because he is shaking things up. This is something a lot of people have wanted for a long time and people like slick just can't understand it so they keep doing their pro forma way of doing things. Problem for them is they may find themselves out of the power loop and others will take over.

Oh, let's correct THAT a wee bit, shall we? November will put the lie to that. What is happening is that the Republican elite now realize that their fun with disruption for 8 years has created the call for a Trump within their midst. Now, today's polling shows that over 40% of THEM(GOP voters) say they will either not vote or vote for someone else than support Trump. I suspect a large chunk of the Trump folks will do likewise should the GOP knock him off. No such confusion on the Dem side. Their factions will make up and move forward pretty well, as usual. No one, looking at a 40 percent chunk of a shrinking minority party views that group as anything but a last-gasp of a dying dinosaur. Sadly, the GOP allowed themselves to be chained to that dinosaur, and will shortly pay a BIG price.

He's doing well because a decent chunk of this country is comprised of ignorant racist assholes who wouldn't know the meaning of the word "statesmanship" if it was written on a 2-by-4 and used to smack them upside the head. We're basically living in an idiocracy, and Trump is the spray-tanned orangutan-haired proof.

And Obama was the token black who was put into office by idiots who believed they were proving how they were not racist by voting for him. Sad really.

And to counter your statement (which I see you do not link to anything...more mindles vapors?) we have this from MA:
Nearly 20,000 Bay State Democrats have fled the party this winter, with thousands doing so to join the Republican ranks, according to the state’s top elections official.

as I told you before(and I interviewed literally THOUSANDS of potential supporters in 2008), they supported him because he was the SMARTEST candidate, hands-down, and the nation was facing an economic meltdown. His opponent had already stated that economics wasn't his strong suit.

Explain to us again why we should believe some online poster claiming he interviewed "1000's" of supporter.

not promoting a damned thing, but if you've been around politics, you've seen this game played before. Cursory looks at some of Trumps numbers in NH indicate that is some of what went down there, quite possible that SC will ultimately reveal likewise. I suspect the young are fecking with the process, but have ZERO hard information. Maybe there is some sort of party sanctioned black op going on. Maybe you are correct in what I feel is a delusion, and Trump is just ripping Democrats into his arms. Time will tell. The bet still stands.

”Those of us in public life can only resent the use of our names by those who seek political recognition for the repugnant doctrines of hate they espouse.

Currently there is a really popular podcast with a host who is pretending to support Trump. It's satire, but I'm pretty sure some of the audience doesn't get the joke. Also, I think there is a real danger from people "trolling" the political process. A bunch of hopeless, apathetical people voting for Trump because they think it's funny. There is no shortage of people like that in the world. Between them and the uneducated we might have the perfect storm that propels our country into the fictional world of Idiocracy.

And Trump has some control over who his message resonates with? I wonder how many American communists Crazy Bernie resonates with?:
While attending the University of Chicago, Sanders joined the Young People’s Socialist League, the youth wing of the Socialist Party USA. He also organized for a communist front, the United Packinghouse Workers Union, which at the time was under investigation by the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
After graduating with a political science degree, Sanders moved to Vermont, where he headed the American People’s History Society, an organ for Marxist propaganda. There, he produced a glowing documentary on the life of socialist revolutionary Eugene Debs, who was jailed for espionage during the Red Scare and hailed by the Bolsheviks as “America’s greatest Marxist.”

The
answer is on the Communist Party USA website. There are a lot of words on that page so I'll tl;dr for you: The Communist Party's
only concern is blocking the far-right (not the right, the far-right, let's be clear on that point). In this sense they support both Clinton and Sanders. However, Sanders has a unique appeal in that his presence keeps Clinton from moving too far to the right. The Communist Party USA has not endorsed a candidate as far as I can see. The article also admonishes Bernie supporters with extreme ideals, specifically the "Bernie or Bust" types, because they see this attitude as detrimental to the political process (and it is).

of course, that group isn't exactly the 'commie' 'pinko' 'Bolshevik' types that Joe McCarthy, er, Woody, wants to conjure up. I do appreciate, though, the memories, because that is the sort of public persona that Trump exemplies: Joe McCarthy. Bluster, hate, and lies, all for personal gain. Didn't work out in the long run for him,but the man fecked the nation up for over a decades worth of problems.

given that 38 percent of the GOP and 55 percent of Trump supporters feel the wrong side won the Civil War, I'd say the choice is pretty easy in the here and now.
