Trump is a bumbling opportunistic boob compared to AH, it'll be incompetence rather than organization that worries if he's chosen.

How do you know? Trump is pulling it because the Washington Post is
calling him on his attacks on Obama's loyalty, which is based on Trump's distaste for Obama's not being white. Mormons find discrimination against religious minorities distasteful. Remember Trump is casting the President as un-American and on the "wrong side" of a "religious" war.

A rather recent development.

My gut feel is that this has more to do with Romney, his opposition to Trump's candidacy and his futile efforts to canvass an alternative to Trump. I still doubt very much if Hillary will win Utah.

On a technical point you are correct. But what caused the WAPo decision re Trump is not really a brand new theme from the candidate. That is why he didn't win Utah. Besides if just one WAPo reader from Utah changes his mind on Trump I would be correct. You might want to ditch the bold highlights on post quoting it is getting old.

No, that's your broken-record response to just about everything these days.

How else do you explain birtherism?


Give me a rational answer citing Trumps birthersim, connecting Trumps rise with his most recent comments about Obama.
Fill the forum with your brilliance....


Was Obama born in Kenya Mike? Are you telling me you believe that? And if you don't how to explain all those people that do?

Trump's either a racist, or dumb enough to believe his own theory.Are you telling me that is not true?
