He is rough around the edges. This is mostly due (in my opinion) his lack of a political background. That isn't all bad however.

I'll start this one with an unfavorable opinion. & don't think he will be our 45th President. After Obama the country will not elect another charlatan and fraud...But a few Old Jarheads Club members disagree with me.

I'm glad we had candidates like Mr. Trump and Sen. Sanders this round. I disagreed with both of them on almost everything, but they highlighted the dissatisfaction with "politics as normal" on BOTH sides.

Unfortunately, in Mr. Trump's case His message is "tonally" loaded with emotion I cannot tolerate in a leader. I cannot in good faith vote for him (I'm not voting for Ms. Clinton either but for different reasons).

I listen to several podcasts and several people who have worked with him. I do not believe he is a bad person. Far from it. I think he has a charismatic alpha personality which works for him. I have heard people who dislike his political stances speak of him doing good, even great selfless charity acts (outside of seeking recognition). But our vote is one if the powerful things we own.

As such, I have an unfavorable political view of him, but generally neutral to favorable otherwise. I cannot say the same about the other front runner.

If I take him at his word He is more Fascist than Mussolini, If I take him at his Business Record, He is a Thief from his Providers, Contractors and Business Partners. From his Business Models he is even more of a Vulture Capitalist than Mitt Romney could ever hope to be. He has No Class.

I believe that most of the unfavorable commentary regarding Trump is generated by envy and ideology. Although he lived a very public life, none of it existed before he became a candidate.

Donald Trump can be rude at times and is definitely rough around the edges, but he is straight-forward. I like that he's not lived he life as a politician, but as a businessman. Our country has a lot of problems, and if elected, he will inherit those issues. I feel that Trump is the better choice over Hillary. I don't see her as a friend of the military, and that affects my soldier.

Megyn Kelly of Fox News is a not a fan of Trump here's some of her opinions of this fraud:

"Trump wrote New York Times columnist Gail Collins that she had the “face of a dog,” the columnist wrote in 2011.
— Trump called a lawyer “disgusting” when she wanted a break to pump milk for her baby, The New York Times reported last month.
— Trump has called O’Donnell a “fat pig,” a “slob” and an “animal,” according to several published reports.
Kelly also mentioned that Trump had once told a contestant on NBC’s Celebrity Apprentice it would be a pretty picture to see her on her knees."

Same old, same old, How many times do we need to do this, Tom. The results and comment will be the same as all the others. About time we have more on Hillary, now there is a target rich environment. The question and the way it is posed brings out all the nutty left and the results of the poll.

The references to Hitler are uncalled for and down right fear mongering by the left. Playing the same games they often accuse the far right of doing, politics as usual. Both sides use the same tactics but yet cry foul when its reversed. As CAPT Kevin B. mentioned in another post you have to consider everything like cabinet appointees, Supreme Court etc that will be the picks of the new POTUS. I think Trump is a smart man but doesn't fit the image of what we are mentally supposed to accept as POYUS material. There is a reason both Trump and Sanders did so well. Americans are finally starting to wake up to the bad of the good ole boys and girls of the Washington cartel elitist. But before their can be success of a third party candidate we need more awaking of the American public to say enough is enough.

Trump has a lot of things I do not care for. However, heads above the alternative. Cannot vote for a criminal career politician who has gotten rich by trading favors and running a money laundering "Charity". The cost of the Clinton Foundation is 80% of the money taken in! What a deal!

.Hillary Clinton leads Donald Trump in four of the most diverse presidential battleground states, according to brand-new NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist polls.
Clinton is ahead of Trump by eight points among registered voters in Colorado, 43 percent to 35 percent; a combined 21 percent say neither, other or are undecided.
In Florida, which decided the 2000 presidential election, she's up seven points, 44 percent to 37 percent; the rest are undecided or prefer someone else.
In North Carolina, a state Obama won in 2008 but lost in 2012, Clinton leads by six points, 44 percent to 38 percent.
And in Virginia, Clinton's advantage is nine points, 44 percent to 35 percent.
"With 66 electoral votes at stake in these four states, Donald Trump is playing catch-up against Hillary Clinton," says Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist College Institute for Public Opinion.
