Just How Dangerous Is the Unrest Surrounding Trump's Campaign?

[William Brownstein]

I've had some issues with protest
groups taking it too far, but when someone
like Donald Trump has me concerned about
them, something is wrong.

Sucker punching someone and later saying
that maybe next time that person will be
killed is horrendous. Mr. Trump supporting
that person and even going as far to pay
his legal fees instead of denouncing it, is
appalling.

Donald Trump is a bully with the money.

Hopefully voters will start to wake up, but I am not convinced they will.

Just as I have opposed Obama shortly after I voted for him the first time is the same we will see from Trump supporters who will realize after the damage is done.

We see it on both sides.

There are strong supporters of Obama to this day and many who oppose him.

The same will play out for Trump. I just we don't go thru the same motions as we did with Obama and that Trump will be stopped. He still prevails and nothing seems to stop him. If anyone can win as an Independent, Trump might be it if the GOP is able to prevent him from getting the Republican nomination. I don't think Hillary will be able to stop him based on her perception that we see playing out.

I hope Hillary is indicted and I hope Trump is stopped. I will vote for Hillary if it comes down to the two of them. I would rather vote than not vote at all.

If Trump gets the nomination (likely) Hillary will win. If Trump runs as an independent Hillary will win bigger. As an independent Trump would hurt the GOP far more than he would hurt Hillary. Remember most electoral votes are winner take all.

Hillary could be indicted - will it happen? I have no clue. Stay tuned . . . .

I would normally agree with you on this but we have seen polical analysts get it wrong time after time with Trump. He has defined all odds and this is one time where an Independent could win.

Normally, you're right. It would hurt the GOP more if he went that route. I hope you are right on this. We are talking about crazy supporters and voters who never seem to get it right anymore. God help us all.

Hey, the way this season has unfolded, we will just have to wait and see.
