I don't think a vote for Trump comes from logic or reasoning, it is an emotional vote, similar to a teenager rebelling or experimenting with things. In most cases appealing to logic will not help.

I think everyone here can relate to the feelings that lead people to support Trump. We're all fed up with Politicians, Insiders, RINOs, etc. etc. etc.. Trump is addressing those feelings. That is where he draws his support. It is all emotions driven.
Exactly. I have no idea how he will be as president. But I know one thing, he aimed all his life to be successful, so why shouldn't he try to be a successful president?

And with regards to all others they are all politicians which I don't like. So I vote for Trump and hope for the best.

Wow there are still alot of people here going for Trump. Why?!

Sort of like why people voted for fascist leaders in the past.

 Trump's a fascist leader.
And he's pulling the same wool over your eyes that the previous fascist leaders did in the past.

Do me a favor. Like Trump or hate Trump, stop comparing him to Hitler. It cheapens what that generation went through when everyone is called Hitler and everything a Holocaust.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

I couldn't have encapsulated an appeal that transcends logic any better than you just did. Thank you.

But what if his definition of succces is different than yours?

In other words, all his life he's been looking out for himself and messing over other people, why do you think that will change?

Can you add a never trump option in the poll (even if he wins the nomination)?

I can't believe people still compare Trump to Hitler.

 ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ???


Let me tell you, building a wall does not make him racist, saying that a lot of illegal immigrants are rapist is NOT racism and so on. End of story.

I loved when Bill O'Reilly asked one of the Mexican leaders why he is so against Trump so he said "Because he is a racist! He wants to build a wall!" To which bill said, I also want a wall! Am I a racist too??

They would need to use an existing third party such as the conservative party.
Does that help? Thought u still need a ton of signatures in each state to get the name on the ballot

If the party is on the ballot then they can still choose their candidate just like the democrats can do if Hillary is indicted and they don't want Bernie.

If you don't like politicians why don't you vote for Ted Cruz? The establishment hates him almost as much as Trump. But he is at least sane and a moral person.

Exactly. Just goes to show that people can be stupider than you would ever imagine if they want to be.

That would be a poll for the general election.
As far as the never trump ootion for the primary, you have kasich. Cant imagine any other reason to vote for him.

I'm voting Trump. I'd be happy to discuss why, but for now I'll say: 1. It's intellectual, not emotional, and 2. Like ilherman, for me it's a roll of the dice--might work, might not.
