Re: The Republican candidates
A couple seem to happening. Some big is flailing about and seems to have settled on Hailey as the not Trump. Other thing is the debates if pointless did I think present a facade to a lot of people that there is some race Trump is in and they don't really get just how commanding and solid Trumps lead is. If he walks into the convention with the most votes there is no back room deal or such he just wins. which failing him having a stroke or hart attack seem fairly inevitable.

Re: The Republican candidates
Some of those are practically positioning as members of a future cabinet of Trump, like Ben Carson ended up as etc. Others are there hoping that Trump is disqualified because of health or legal issues.
To be honest, the stress of the legal procedures probably weights on Trump's health.

Re: The Republican candidates
Just in case anyone feels the urge, please for the sake of your own dignity don't try to 'explain' what Trump 'actually' wanted to say and that 'his choice of words was unfortunate' or something along those lines. If this doesn't kill Trump's campaign then America is well and truly doomed, as that can only mean vast numbers of Americans have set aside critical thinking for good and have given themselves over to blind hero worship.

Re: The Republican candidates
A very 2016 take that would be more forgivable had Trump not been president for four years. But sure, I’ll take the bait. He was supposed to launch the Fourth Reich off of the suggestion that illegal immigrants are rapists. Yet Obama deported more people in the first few years of his presidency than Trump did. Can you explain how casual disregard for similar comments today amounts to hero worship that will doom the country this time for real? It’s not even the first time he described illegal immigration as “blood poisoning,” and refers to diseases illegal immigrants bring untraced into the country. It seems the media didn’t decide people should be outraged by it until now apparently.Just in case anyone feels the urge, please for the sake of your own dignity don't try to 'explain' what Trump 'actually' wanted to say and that 'his choice of words was unfortunate' or something along those lines.

Nobody has any idea where these people are coming from….And we know they come from prisons. We know they come from mental institutions and centers, islands we know they're terrorists. Nobody has ever seen anything like we're witnessing right now. It is a very sad thing for our country. It's poisoning the blood of our country. It's so bad and people are coming in with disease, people are coming in with — with every possible thing that you can have.”

Of these facts there cannot be any shadow of doubt: for instance, that civil society was renovated in every part by Christian institutions; that in the strength of that renewal the human race was lifted up to better things-nay, that it was brought back from death to life, and to so excellent a life that nothing more perfect had been known before, or will come to be known in the ages that have yet to be. - Pope Leo XIII
