Let's follow this logic. Obama is responsible for Trump. Trump is sabotaging the Republican Party. Ergo, Obama has sabotaged the Republican Party. This is supposed to be a bad thing? Obama must be even more brilliant than previously believed.


I believe you are confused; I am not the on who posted the thread on "crazy trump conspiracy."

Further, I don't consider Trump a serious candidate since he has no political experience holding office.

I am merely pointing out that his popularity stems primarily from Obama's failure to meanifully deal with the border crisis and othe Obama moves that many believe are encouraging illegal immigration.

If you believe Obama is so tough on illegal immigration, start your own thread.

This thread is about Trump and why he is leading in the polls. Why is that, if not immigration?


It appears that you are he one who is confused. I didn't mention immigration at all. So, why would I want to start a thread on the topic? You are the one insisting that Trump is popular as a result Obama's policies. In other words, Obama is responsible for Trump's popularity. Given that Trump is presenting a serious problem for the Republican Party, I fail to see how that result could be considered bad by Obama or Democrats. it is actually pretty clever to simultaneously implement your policies and sabotage the opposing party.

I agree that his primary appeal is his straight-talk approach. He is a stark contrast to the other candidates on both sides of the aisle. However, I have significant doubts that the content of his message will hold up long term in a national campaign.

People are tired of being lied to about immigration- they see the unmitigated flow of illegals into their communities and they are tired of the lies from politicians - both republicans and democrats.

"Calling it like it is" only as viewed from a grotesquely small, shortsighted, bigoted, paranoid, narcissistic and delusional mind.

Doesn't say much for those supporting him...

If Obama is "encouraging" illegal immigration, then why, as you claim, would he fudge the numbers to make it look like he his deporting more people? I don't think high deportations would encourage anyone.
