Where was all this concern from Repubs when their racist presidential candidate was "searching" for Barack Obama's b/c? NOW Repubs are concerned that same racist is their candidate for president and they'll lose the WH - again, and probably the Senate? Too funny!
..As for the Dems, most are happy with their presidential candidate.

Feigned false equivalence is a waffle, and a woeful and unsatisfactory way of avoiding more complex reality.

Quote of the Day: The Simple, Ever-So-Simple World of Donald Trump

Kevin DrumJan. 25, 2016 7:38 PM



Behold the business acumen of Donald Trump .. http://money.cnn.com/2016/01/25/media/donald-trump-michael-bloomberg/index.html :

----

Donald Trump says he's unfazed by the prospect of running against Michael Bloomberg....At one point, Trump cast doubt on Bloomberg's business success, suggesting that the head of the Bloomberg media empire wasn't actually worth the $36.5 billion estimated by Forbes. "I don't believe it, I don't believe it," Trump said.

"I mean if somebody came in...and comes up with a better machine than him, people stop using it," Trump said. "I don't even know why other companies haven't come up with a better machine. I mean why? It's so simple."
----

This comes from a man who managed to run into the ground an airline, a hotel, a casino empire, and an endless series of late-night shills. But he apparently has no idea why Bloomberg terminals are popular, nor any idea that Bloomberg has a number of large competitors. Compare to this:

----
"I mean if somebody came in...and builds a better car than Toyota, people stop buying them. I don't even know why other companies haven't come up with a better car. I mean why? It's so simple."
----

This is the same man who says it's "so simple" to get Mexico to pay for a wall and force China to stop devaluing its currency; that he would "totally succeed" in creating jobs, reducing the budget deficit, stopping nuclear weapons in Iran, and saving Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid; that it's "easy" to get OPEC to produce more oil; and that it's "very simple" to get ISIS to surrender.

Now you understand why Trump thinks everything is easy. It's because he has no idea what goes into any of this stuff. Every time he tries to do something that's even slightly out of his wheelhouse (namely property development and bluster) he fails miserably, but he still thinks everything is easy. And his fans believe him.

conix, it's just so ever so simple to say they are the same, and all bad ..

"Both parties should have contested conventions and come up with better candidates.
Both parties and their primary voters have come up with very, very flawed candidates.
"

.. isn't it.
