For goodness sake, he's such an easy target. You don't have to lie or even exaggerate. He's so full of dirt, the only problem attacking him is figuring out what you want to attack him on first. If they pummel him in on-air ads in Florida, Ohio and Illinois, they should be able to hurt him.
It's possible that his supporters are so emotionally committed to him that they will be blinded to all logic. If that's the case, it's really too late. I think enough of his supporters will listen though and he will go down. That's my prediction: He will not win the nomination.
You and everyone else not voting for trump think that same way... Unfortunately you all seem to be in the minority.
What you guys fail to get is the dynamic has changed. Most People are not stupid. Most people can see through the dirt the DNC and GOP will sling. Even if some of this dirt lands on trump, it does not effects Trump the same way it works on other politicians for two reasons.
1) Trump's time on TV and personal marketing campaign over the last decade maybe 20 years makes him a house hold name. it makes people feel like they know him. That said he was not so stupid to try and paint himself as anything he is not. He has always portrayed himself as a mogul. Moguls in society are allowed to play by different rules to a certain extent. They don't have to pretend to be the boy scouts politicians pretend to be. So the dirt they are currently sling-ing won't stick. Why? it's politician dirt. that stuff is only good for taking out hypocrites and boy scouts.
2)Not to mention the second reason. Again, People are not stupid. Trump represent Real change. He is the Change Obama pretended to be while leashed to the DNC. This is why Cruz has no appeal. He is claiming to be an 'outsider' yet has 100% support of the GOP. One can not truly bring change if one is tied to the one of the two REAL institutions that control this country. In essence this country has been either Chocolate or Vanilla no matter who we elected for the last 60 years.
Trump is real change, he is Orange sorbet. He owes neither party anything because they did not pay his way to the oval office. For the first time in a very very very long time this country will be free from the rule of chocolate or vanilla. that is why both parties have turned on him.
Now don't get me wrong, I am not a fan of orange sorbet, but at the same time i am damn tired of the same old 'new and improved chocolate and vanilla.' It's all marketing. It's the same old crap in a different package every 4 to 8 years.
Who knows maybe we get to try a new flavor for a few years, most Americans can learn to like it
