Worst Election Ever
-
Hey now......
This is why I am voting for Trump. Just wish he would have listened to his advisers and stuck to winning issues and not get baited and trapped into going into the weeds where he loses. He wins on the issues so the dems strategy was always to get him off message and unfortunately they succeeded.

If elected, do you believe Trump will cease to be "baited and trapped"? Are the stakes not slightly higher for a President on the world stage?

I hope this is looked at, in the future, as the lowest point in American political history but I fear it might not be.
Oh America has been through some major low points, Watergate, Iran Contra, Vietnam, The Great Depression to name a few but this is the most computer driven, media driven (both sides), TV 24/7 crapfest (both sides) I've ever seen and I'm 66.I hope this is looked at, in the future, as the lowest point in American political history but I fear it might not be.
I just hope it ends in November and I get my TV back.
America then better start working on finding better decent candidates for 2018, 2020 (both sides).
It would be nice not to be the laughing stock of the world again.

Well we don't have two good choices, we have two bad choices. Clinton put our national security at risk so she could hide her emails from the public.Clinton handled herself horribly in her incompetence and lying about Benghazi. Clinton's character in my opinion is even worse than Trump. The lesser of two evils for me is Trump. BTW - The way to bait the Clinton's is to wave some cash under their nose.

"baited and trapped"?
He was baited to tweet? Trapped into saying what he has?
That's either BS or Trump is mentally incompetent

I would not say Trump is mentally incompetent but he does have a character flaw being exploited. Little Trump doesn't seem to be able to let go of any slight big or small without going on the attack when sometimes politically it is better just to ignore it. Examples are the Khan family or Miss Universe or whatever is used to set him off.
It is known when Trump stays on message he wins and when he gets sidetracked off the real issues he goes down in the polls.
Dick Morris: Hillary Campaign Is Baiting Trump
Donald Trump's spat with the family of the fallen Muslim Army captain is a clear example of how Hillary Clinton's campaign "is based on baiting Trump," political strategist Dick Morris told Newsmax TV on Wednesday.
"She said it in her speech," at the Democratic national convention last week, Morris told "Newsmax Prime" host J.D. Hayworth. "She said, 'A man you can bait with a tweet.'
"Their whole technique is to tease him and bait him and anger him. He departs from the straight and narrow, lashes out — and the lash-out becomes the coverage.
"You forget about immigration," Morris continued. "You forget about trade. You forget about jobs. You forget about terrorism, crime.
"All you're talking about is insulting this veteran," he added. "That's how the media plays him."

Unfortunately not one of the news cycle eruptions from the Democrats and their Partners in the MSM have had anything to do with policies qualifications positions, nothing.

I'd say FoxNews and Breitbart, two of the top conservative news sources, aren't exactly "fringe" (or at least to their readers, I guess.)

I think you're probably playing semantics at this point, but allow me to clarify. Here is what Trump said:
"His father was with Lee Harvey Oswald prior to Oswald being, you know, shot. I mean the whole thing is ridiculous. What is this, right, prior to his being shot? And nobody even brings it up...What was he doing — what was he doing with Lee Harvey Oswald shortly before the death? Before the shooting? It’s horrible."
So, did he outright say that Raphael Cruz killed Kennedy? No. But, he was insinuating such, and I believe the vast majority of people interpreted him as saying such. Perhaps I would have been better served to have written "insinuated" instead, but I think that you understood the jist to begin with. Regardless, the conservative media ran with it, and it became a big talking point during the run up to the Indiana primary, instead of Trump and Cruz's actual polices.
...And did he call his wife ugly after Ted's Super PAC ran a shitty about his wife just compare the two? Sounds like you're making this shit up to me amigo.

True, but that isn't what we were originally arguing about. You originally stated, if I read you correctly, your disappointment that "not one of the news cycle eruptions from the Democrats and their Partners in the MSM have had anything to do with policies qualifications positions..." - a point that I have no problem conceding, since I too am disappointed in the same thing. But, I then pointed out that Trump pretty much does the same thing - making outlandish claims and vitriolic attacks against his Republican opponents and Clinton - and spends almost zero time on actual policy; and the conservative media runs with it.
So, I don't really understand your obstinacy on this issue - you're usually pretty level headed and rational, even when you don't agree with other poster's point's of view. But I don't think you can deny that the game of attack politics over actual policy is being played extensively by both Trump and Clinton, and that both liberal and conservative media outlets are running with it. They're in it for the click-bait at this point.
