KUSA, he managed to lose daddy's fortune and then lose three more. He is a man who would be at least three times richer if he simply invested his inheritance in T-bonds. While he is by no means stupid (same with Shrub), the only way the hairpiece is scoring highly on any sort of intelligence test is by passing a stuffed brown paper bag to the test's marker.
They like the Dumpster because "He tells it like it is", yea like Jerry Springer, Dr Phil and Vince McMahon. Trump is great at selling crap, that's all. Hony Boo and Duck Dynasty sell too, but they are not COSMOS, not even close.

Oh, I know what his appeal is, he gives a sheen of respectability to unrespectable thoughts, and he allows people to look at their lives and blame others for it not turning out as they hoped it did. Unfortunately for those who look up to him, he is the exact opposite of what they need, because he'll be unwilling and unable to bring through the kind of policies which will help the poor in America.

Well there are "others" to blame, just not the "others" Trump would have you believe.
Since the beginning of Reagan's union busting and trickle up economics the top has gained more and more control over our political system. If you want an "other" to blame, that is who we should blame. But not just here, global corporatism is hurting the planet, not just big oil, but when you have 62 uber billionaires with the combined wealth of 3.5 billion humans, the real problem is obvious.

I didn't realize he was running. It would be interesting to see what he would do. I expect we would get a new space shuttle. That fuckface Obama let that shit go.
Not even trying to refute my points that you asked for earlier. Guess this ended before it started

That's a good point to bring up, that the hairpiece may hate himself, but it still doesn't tell me why you are looking to vote probably the most establishment figure in an admittedly crowded field of establishment people.
If you truly were anti-establishment wouldn't you be voting Bernie? Or are his policies of taking it to the man scary to you?
Honestly I'm on the fence when it comes to them both. Many of friends and both my brothers like Bernie. I don't like the end result of socialism from what I've seen in South America, especially Venezuela. I feel like socialism will give the government more control over my life, since it will collectivize the wealth and give it to them to distribute. Since I'm anti-establishment, why would I give the establishment which controls our government more control over my wealth earned through working, and in the end my life. I'm more for individualism rather than collectivism.
Trump has talking points but not many answers. Still don't fully trust him, but at least he doesn't talk like a politician, but at the same time I don't know what he has planned.

So stay off of the roads.

Can't agree with you here. Trump is obviously very intelligent. His main flaw is his ego, not intelligence. Trump is an epitome of unhealthily high narcissism.

I think he is a good man and I'm voting for him.
What could possibly have led you to this astounding conclusion?

Please provide a link to his IQ test results. You can't, because he has not made that public. So based on what do you make this claim?
Not that IQ is everything. It isn't a measure of character, for instance. Some serial killers have VERY high IQ's, it does not mean they would be good Presidents.
I came across an American on Facebook talking about Donald Trump's high IQ, and Sarah Palin's as well and how it was higher than 99% of the population.
Has there been some bullshit spread about regarding this? He kept referring to it as if it was the only measure of intelligence. I had to point out that even if it was true (which is extremely doubtful) then it does not in anyway mean that either Donald Trump or Sarah Palin have the necessary qualities to be a leader. The only skill they have demonstrated is to get votes from stupid people. Also that IQ is a poor measure of intelligence because there are so many functions that the brain has to perform. We know for a fact that neither of them have the ability to think critically for example. The fact that someone has to parrot some crap about having a higher IQ than 99% of the population suggests to me that they don't know shit about the nature of intelligence.
I maintain my position that Donald Trump is an utter idiot.
