The Trump Card...

RoadTime · Aug 22, 2015

Only Trump would say this. But he does bring up a good point. I really like someone who is always thinking outside of the box and not afraid to say it.

He says he can draw a yuuuuuge crowd - but his biggest was in Mobile, Al: 30,000. Bernie Sanders drew 35,000 in Iowa - without any advertising, lol.
Trump is still a joke as a candidate for POTUS.

Joke or not, I highly doubt that Sanders would draw these numbers from the last record setting debate.

Still looking for the one I read that said 35K people showed up, but Sanders is getting bigger crowds wherever he goes, and his campaign doesn't spend money to advertise, either.

Good stuff here, like how Trump gets 2000, posts photo that says "This is what 15,000 people looks like", lol. asked where he got that figure when he repeated it, no reply.
Sanders is an honest man, always has been - I [and millions of others] admire him for that.

Sanders crowds are growing, which shows the growing unpopularity of Hillary. But really do we need yet another socialist in office?

Sanders largest crowd

I'm not sure that any meaning can be gleaned from comparing crowd sizes of Republicans and Democrats unless or until there is but one from each party left on their respective tickets.

Comparing the applely goodness taste of Red Delicious to Fuji to Granny Smith to Golden Delicious to Braeburn, all apples, seems to make more sense than does comparing a Red Delicious apple to a Naval orange. You may very well like the Naval orange better, even a lot better, but it ain't an apple.

I've been saying all along just how unpopular Hillary really is.
It's now up to the Reps to nominate the right person.

Trump had 30,000 in the stadium.
Sanders had 28,000 in Oregon. Slight edge to Trump.

The difference is that many who show up to see Trump are like many NASCAR fans - just hoping to see a wreck. They won't vote for him, if it comes to that. [There's one article that makes that exact point, if I can find it.]
The people who show up for Sanders believe he is the best candidate, and they will vote for him, no question.
Major advantage to Sanders.

Yes yes but is trump really saying anything we are already so ingrained to China we can stop trade there with

xiggi · Aug 26, 2015

Sanders and Biden, two career politicians exactly what we don't need.

Yeah, I'm going to have to disagree with you on that one. Trump is getting support from many in the 'conservative base', independents and even some democrats. The conservative base is a solid voting constituency, if they believe that their candidate will make a difference for the better. At least some in the news media will have you think that the people who support Trump are just a bunch of uneducated rednecks fueled by nefarious motives, while Sanders' supporters are mainly sophisticated citizens with only the best of intentions.
Some in the media can't help themselves in writing biased articles like this.
