For myself, I think Trump is the most dangerous candidate I have ever seen in the USA. A man who admires Putin, for gawd's sake, whose means of making America great is to build a wall and to enlarge the military, whose normal method of operation is threats and coercion.

This guy would not be contained by a Constitution. He is a bully who will make wars not jobs, debt not growth. No country is entitled to be "great". You have to compete to thrive economically. The idea that the US can force other countries to do its bidding through intimidation is only one small step short of war. But this is Trump's modus operandi. He gets what he gets by threats and intimidation. Other countries are going to say no. What then? Nuke them because they don't accept Trump's one-sided deals?

Beware America. You are flirting with a monster.

Rubio is flatlining in Florida. For myself, I think that primary is when his campaign ends.

The scary thing about Trump for me is that I cannot understand what his appeal is. If he is winning Republicans who a few months ago seemed to believe certain things which Trump doesn't, will he have the same effect on Democrats?

I dunno. And that is concerning.

Set aside the things we once thought of as gaffes, who woulda thunk you can get away with having almost no policies and lead the party's nomination process? Apparently, you just need to say you will win and that you'll make America great again and you will make Mexico build a wall and no one cares about the little details. Like how the heck do you plan to do so?

If Mexico builds a wall at its own expense to hold Mexicans in, do you suppose they will build it well?
