Waffle House has a workable business model with a tangible product. Waffle House-2, Trump-0.

I've learned to love the guy myself.
All liberals should.
For one thing, the Republicans are scared to death of him.
Just read this article.

I'm a Bernie Sanders guy all the way, but I'm pulling for Trump to get the Republican nomination, and if it comes down to Hillary vs, Trump in the general, I'll be pulling for Trump.

Not really.
The guy is filled with confidence and that is inspiring in and of itself.
He is a political outsider who has successful sold the story that he owes no one anything. This is appealing on some level to all but the top 2% and they know he's one of them!
He speaks in macro which many can relate to.
I don't get why so many are so surprised at his success.
I saw it back in August and first said then that I thought he'd be our next president.
Back when most thought he was not even serious about running.
Let's face facts, Bernie and Hill are not electable in in the general. This country is not electing a so************************t, sorry. He'd have my vote but I am not stupid enough to think he can win it.Hill, bad image and too much baggage. Next she'll be lossing the black vote. This is a case of truely being out of tough.
On the right, aside from Kasich, it's a train wreck.
Rafael as president? I don't think so. Marco "Opie" Rubio? LOL
Bitch all you want, the way it sets up, Trump looks to be the best we CAN get this time around.
Biden really blew it, he had the best shot from the DEm's.

I'm surprised George W campaigned for Jeb. President Trump is the one thing guaranteed to make him look good....

Sad to say, I think it's unlikely that Bernie will get the nomination. I also believe the only way Trump won't be the Republican nominee is if the RNC jiggers the convention.
So, given that, it's very likely that it will be a Hillary vs. Trump election. If it is, are you going to vote for Trump? If you are, why? What about a President Trump do you think will benefit you more than a President Clinton? How will he be better for the country than she will?

The author of linked article: He is not averse to blowing up his party provided it is done by principled conservatives and not an impostor such as Trump.
My reading: It is ok for such as Ted Cruz to carry out the demolition.

Can't argue with that outcome either.

I have no clue what a Trump Presidency would be like.
But I know what a Hillary one will be like.
Same shit, different day.
I'm sick and tired of that, so I'll roll the dice with Trump.
As for my general election vote, don't worry about it.
I'm in Alabama now, so it doesn't count.
Those electoral votes are going red no matter what happens.
I will say this though, if it's any other Republican other than Trump, I'll suck it up and go with Hill the Pill.

If that's true, you have no business voting for him or even supporting him. What are you voting for? What are you supporting?
