Trump cannot be stopped. the people love him, and no matter what the lame duck media tries to do to try and destroy him, he still keeps winning the delegates. He always comes out smelling like a rose. The media tries it's darndest to try and nail him on anything, but it gets them no where because no one is listening to them all that much anymore, especially his supporters. They know that the lame duck media are nothing but a bunch of losers and liars.The people are with him no matter what the media tries to dream up. Now that it looks like a match up between Hillary and Trump for President, I am looking forward to the cross examination of Hillary by Trump. Trump is going to waste her. Long overdue, indeed.

uhhh... is winning more primaries significant if you're the only one left 'running'?

"cross examination of Hillary by Trump" :lol: now Hillary Clinton is no orator (to the lengths of an Obama or her husband Bill), but Trump has to be one of the absolute worst public speakers imaginable. There's a reason the media is all over his use of a teleprompter for the first-time this evening! Those debates between Clinton and Trump will be great comedic relief as Trump... simply can't dance!

Trump can be stopped by a bullet like Robert Kennedy and his brother, John and other Presidents. That's how some people in the US get rid of unwanted politicians. After listening to him last night, he deserves a chance at the W.H., he can't be worse that GW. I wouldn't trust the Clinton or the GOP to do him in, it all depends who he picks for VP.

Constant derision like this is a great way to get Trump in the White House.

The sad thing is the only thing more frightening than a Trump presidency is a Clinton presidency...

Is it a risky bet? Absolutely. A Trump presidency cannot be seen in a more flattering light than an attempt to drink a little chemo, get sick, and kill a handful of political cancers at once. Is it flirtation with fire? Yes. The whole gambit rests upon the horror of a Trump presidency creating a political backlash that repairs our most damaged institutions.

American voters will decide this, not presumptions of assassination from north of the border. Sit back and enjoy the show...as always.

They're both frightening. It's very sad that this is the best America could choose for itself. But they deserve them, and the rest of the world is screwed in very different ways no matter who wins. Time for regime change.

Whoever said they are the best America could choose ? Certainly not a criteria for PM in Canada based on the last election.

Frightening indeed! Certainly the perception in Europe (including UK) is that Trump is an idiot but on the surface none of the leaders can share any sentiment that disapproves of him. Frankly cannot understand what the Americans see in him...

if not America's best... why not the best - what are America's best waiting for? Is it that the U.S. primary/caucus process... and the inordinate monies required to simply be, 'in the game/mix'... that doesn't favour, "the best"! Such a dysfunctional political system led and driven by the SCOTUS Citizens United ruling and the resultant big-time PACexpress... America, "the best"... money can buy!

in the last couple of days we see prominent Democrats coming forward to rally around Clinton and to even overtly denounce Trump. There is nothing similar happening with Republicans and Trump; they appear to be either formally renouncing previous endorsements, holding back endorsements or laying down timed ultimatums for Trump to "pivot" away from his nonsense... or playing up the appeasement card to suggest, "anything is better than Clinton"... to going outright moot and avoiding the media so intent to solicit Republican leaders reactions to Trump's latest racist pursuit.

Are you kidding? He says what a good number of them think. There's plenty of Americans who are racist, Islamophobic, sexist, anti-immigrant blowhards just like him. Fortunately there's also a lot of Americans who aren't like that at all.

No worries...one can't vote for him unless an American citizen anyway....in Europe or Canada. So it all works out just fine.

Someone is always an idiot to someone else when they don't agree with what you believe. Trump is no idiot,far from it, and he is proving that to the American people, and they appear to approve of his "idiot" ways. The American people are showing that the have had enough of the idiotic politicians that do nothing but screw everything up. Politicians have a problem/ They cannot seem to mind their own business. Of course here in Canada, we like to vote for people who know how to screw things up. But hey this is Canada don't you know. We Canadians just love getting screwed, and enjoy it even more paying for it thru higher and higher taxes and more government. Oh where, oh where is Canada's Trump? Come out of the closet will you.

At some point Republicans will be clamouring to distance themselves from their nominee. The ferocity at which they tear him down while attempting to rebuild will be unprecedented. The tricky part is when to begin. Those who start early and vocally will create the most visible distance from the embarrassing disaster, but they run the risk of seeming unloyal to the party or even anti-Republican. Those that stay on the Titanic too long, run the risk of permanent taint. Right now, we see so many prominent Repubs playing the limbo game, trying to carefully word their statements so as not to endorse or castigate Trump.

What is the best time and method to cut bait and run?

I bet lots of behind the scenes meetings are taking place with the Republican Establishment to form a new party. With the help of Cruz, The Tea Party and now Trump, their beloved party no longer exists.

As usual, your regular obsession with posters from other countries weighing in on your dear USA, USA!

the guy certainly favours quite the self-serving double-standard as he forever shows just how important Canada is to him!

As usual, a complete miss on the larger point of predicting politics in a foreign country.

Three years ago I suggested that we will have to wait until July 27, the last day of the Republican Convention, to find out who the Republican nominee will be. To-day, I say that we will have to wait until July 27, the last day of the Republican Convention, to find out who the Republican nominee will be.

It ain't over till the fat lady sings.

Note - For those expecting a response from Big Guy: I generally do not read or respond to posts longer then 300 words nor to parsed comments.

It's getting interesting:

White Nationalists Involved In Bloody Calif. Rally Will Be At GOP Convention

Traditionalist Worker Party [white supremacist] spokesman Matt Parrott told McClatchy on Monday that about 30 members of his group, which held a rally at the California state capitol over the weekend where at least five people were stabbed, will head to the convention to make sure that the Donald Trump supporters are defended from the leftist thugs.

It'll be the biggest public white supremacist rally in a long while ... woohoo!

Break out the sheets and pointy hats and burning crosses!
