Apparently Trump has come out in support of Brexit.

I guess he wanted to balance out Obama?

Eh, seems like exactly the policy he'd have if he were British.

I don't know. I don't spend anytime listening to his 'policies'.

380.000 likes on his facebook after 4 hours. Madness! Plus you know his haters are going to run with it and act like unpaid marketing interns. ^_^

If you look carefully in the lower right of the picture there's a bikini shot of Marla Maples (Trump's ex-wife).

Sharp-eyed hero notices Trump is eating taco bowl on top of his ex-wife

Apparently it's from a recent People magazine article about Trump.

Only heavenly blessed beauties for the Don. :thumbsup:

Mitt Romney to bend the knee.

There is a difference between "I think so and so will win" and "I hope so and so will win."  It is entirely possible to think that Trump will win but hope that he loses.

I'm confused. Why do we care what Scott Brown thinks? /why is Brown spreading gossip?

Sure, but saying "I think Trump will win" when Trump is behind in the polls suggests he's starting to rally around the party line. Politicians are always optimistic about their party's chances in the elections, at least when speaking in front of a camera.

Apparently GOP challenger of Paul Ryan is running against Ryan by milking Ryan's refusal to back Trump. I wonder how many GOP establishment stooges are going to see a similar revolt?

You realize when you use the expression "establishment stooge" based on hesitancy to back Trump, you sound almost as retarded as when you use "kind and sensitive person"?

A stooge is someone who works for or assists others.

Paul Ryan is Speaker of the House.  He's 2nd in line for the presidency.  He is the god damn establishment, for good or bad.

I think in the mind of Trump supporters, the Establishment is some secret conspiracy like SPECTRE or the Illuminati.

The only major difference I can discern between between being a "GOP establishment stooge" and Trump is winning a general election. I don't think you need to worry about Trump becoming a GOP establishment stooge. :)

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Trump should endorse Paul Ryan's primary challenger as retribution and a continued warning to party "leaders" who dare oppose him.  The vote is August 9.

The center is crumbling. Even if Hillary manages to win this thing I hope centrists from both parties can form a new party or something. The Bernie and Trump momentum is pretty big even if they lose.
