No one could have been this bad by accident. His debate performance was awful.
 
I’ve been saying from the beginning, he’s in it to split the Republican vote so Hillary wins. And make no mistake, Hillary is going to be the nominee. The DNC will never put Bernie Sanders on the ticket. He cannot win in the general.
 
according to freep he won last nite. I did not see it, but I'm reading about it. he is a 9-11 truther and good for him. he needs to come out and say who really did 9-11 once and for all

How is he going to split the GOP vote if he wins the nomination.

I've had quite a few people that have always voted republican tell me they will refuse to vote for Trump because he's such a buffoon. I'm guessing they aren't alone and will cause many to vote democrat or not vote all.

Answering Herkmeister’s question, yes. I do think he is sabotaging himself on purpose. I think he wants to lose a few more primaries so he can run third party. The problem is, he underestimated the stupidity of the average American. He keeps saying more and more outrageous things that would normally derail a Republican candidate. It isn’t working because the media isn’t treating him like they usually treat a Republican.

The stage is getting smaller. In the large groups he could lay back and shoot out one liners and hide on the issues. As the number of competitors gets smaller he will have to be more focused on answering questions and I don't think he can do that without looking uninformed on a lot of issues. Christie hammered Rubio for being so scripted. Well, what is Trump? Wall, huge, tremendous, so much respect, wall, fabulous… That's all he has.
 
Trump is going to keep getting his 25-35% all the way to the nomination...unless the rest of the field can clear out for another candidate, and I don't really see that happening.

Reactions: Herkmeister
After watching television this morning, I wonder if his ploy isn't total brilliance. He is pandering to the angry and the angry are on both sides. Last night might've been comforting to some Democrats. I found his performance to be appalling but according to CBS News 24% of viewers thought he won the debate.
 
As he waters down his ideas I become more and more interested in "the Donald". He's now become less dangerous than Hillary and Cruz

And this is why HRC will crush him in a one on one debate. He's loud, but at some point he has to show knowledge of issues and he simply does have a wide enough base of info.

He will be exposed again. The question is whether it comes before he wins the nomination.

I think as soon as Sleepy is flushed from the stage it'll get very interesting. Right now the moderators are obligated to call on him once in awhile and Trump is playing the role of his protector by attacking Cruz for the dirty tricks in Iowa. When Carson is gone, and maybe one of the Kasich/Bush crew it will get really tight for Trump to hide.
 
I would agree. When do you think Jeb's mom & dad will tell him to come home?
 
What is the name of the place they meet? I remember it is some kind of park or masonic place
no, it's always a hotel, big resort. Marriott in Chantilly va or a big euro style resort in Sweden or something. this year it's rumored to be in cali somewhere, sierra something or other

He doesn't have much longer before he wouldn't be able to get on all of the state ballots. I'm reading that'd he'd have to do that sometime in March.

And I know people who generally don't vote, or vote Democrat, that told me they would vote for him. It should be interesting to see how it all shakes down if he gets the nomination.

But if Hillary was the democratic choice then how do they know which baffoon to go with?
