come on people, Arnold S. became gov. at the drop of a hat and personally, the clown that is sitting in the White house right now, should be fined, deported and lame ducked out of there. For Christ's sake, he is earning a living on our, my, your tax dollars which has become a damn joke. This healthcare crap is the biggest smoke screen crap since the lady with four legs at the carnival! Seriously, are any of you still believing that the current administration has any desire to correct the US money problems? If they did, they wouldn't have 22 assistants, and all Muslims as his Zarrs? What does it take for you idiots to see through the smoke screen. Donald Trump is a business man, and I'll bet you he can cut more spending dollars in an hour than the current administration could do in 20 years! Shut up! The US needs to be ran as a business, we have sat back and said, I don't want to do it, and let the government do it and look what has happened, what a mess we are in. We have failed as a country. You better put your money in your mattress along with your guns cause baby this administration is here to destroy what is left of our country.

Anyone that suggests that a shallow, vulgar, shortsighted individual like Donald Trump couldn't get elected is obviously forgetting that George W. Bush, with all of his glaring shortcomings, not only managed to become president, but was re-elected for a second term. Four years at Yale failed to enable the younger Bush to speak clearly or intelligently. He never made a respectable campaign speech. In both domestic and foreign affairs, he was always the bull in the china shop, bumbling and fumbling his way from one disaster to the next. All the same, he proved that there are, and probably always will be, enough profoundly ill-informed and unintelligent voters in the U.S. to elect such intellectually-challenged candidates. Donald Trump actually rises considerably above the Bush level, in that he can actually manage to utter complete grammatical sentences. As a result, anyone who can not readily discern the severe limits of Trump's understanding of today's world will probably fail to grasp the obvious mistake they would make if they voted for such a low-life huckster. If they elected Bush, they could surely embrace Donald Trump.

I think that this country of the rich step on the middle class has to end and we need to do it now, it is getting to late. Trump has the money to run himself for President, he does not need to have any wall street backing. So his platform should not be either political party it should be just American. Our (and I use that word loosely) government has divided the country into political parties, but yet always on their tongues they say "we", grouping everyone together as one government. Yet "we" are not one government, "we" are three. "we" have the republican, the democrat, the independent, and all have a different agenda. Someone tell me how that equates to one government? If it does that is some pretty messed up math. "We" as the middle class have sat by and watch our presidents being bought and sold, making decisions on behave of their and their friends interests. Making themselves richer at the expense of the middle class. If you take a look at our economy, the rich have made our dollar shrink in value, to the point where it has little value. If money is power, what is gonna happen when the money is not worth anything? Will we the middle class finally get the power back, and will the few elitists finally wake up to what they have created? No! they will not, because they will always have the power as long as we keep letting them have it. So please Mr. Trump do the middle class a favor and run as an American, run as a man that knows a society cant function without the middle class. I know this is a hard thing to do but I also know that history is dripping with the blood, sweat, and tears of great people who broke the mold and did things for the greater good, not themselves. Go Americans
