That's not the argument Drumpf made when he was trying to blame Cruz for the attack on Drumpf's mail-order bride.

He was insinuating that da person running Ted Cruz's super pac was someone REAL close to Cruz's circle so for them to act like they aren't coordinating other than a "wink & nod" was disingenuous.
Still doesn't negate da fact that its illegal.

I don't like that about Drumpf though. He insinuates a lot of heavy-duty allegations but then always throws in a qualifier at the end so he can back out of it (in this case insinuating Cruz broke the law without offering any proof). That's dishonorable to me.
He's done this on nearly every issue out there.
If one of your friends acted like that, you would be sure to call him a piece of **** and keep him at a distance.

I thought what was good for the goose was good for the gander though.
You can't criticize Hillary for getting financial support from special interest groups and not do the same for Trump.
She can't coordinate with superPACs either, but that doesn't stop her opponents from accusing her of being in bed with Big Money.
I'd like you to consider why - if the Drumpf is so pro-American manufacturing - does he have a clothing line made in Mexico? If he is so pro-benefits for the working poor, why are his hotel employees on minimum wage with nothing else resembling the benefits he is promising the rest of America?
He's making all those promises, but he doesn't have a history of applying them anywhere within his own business ventures; why do you believe in him?
Why should I?

Again? Like in which era? And what exactly about that era made it "rockin"?
I'm genuinely interested. Because I think this is a pivotal point and a great way to start the discussion. Because I think we can all agree (at least I would hope) that, while we may disagree on what has gotten better or what has gotten worse over the years, things have changed. The nature of the economy has changed, the nature of technology has changed, the nature of societal norms has changed, etc.

Well, Trump could say "NO" to superPAC money, especially since he knows (as we all do) that it comes with strings attached.
But he won't.
Because he needs it.

A zebra cannot change its stripes. If that man becomes president, his supporters will be in for a rude awakening.

What's funny is that a common complaint throughout the history of mankind is that only the rich can enter politics. By Drumpf saying everyone should self-fund their campaign, he's essentially saying only the richest of the rich should be politicians.
Of course his supporters won't call him out on this.

I would blame a Democratic Party that doesn't represent workers at all, including a majority of white collar, college educated workers.
In purely self interested terms, why should a working class white male vote for Hillary Clinton or other pro business Democrats? You will be poor in any case but with socially liberal-fiscally conservative Dems like Hillary, they will also take your gun, call you privileged and call you a latent rapist. They will tell you that Malia and Sasha Obama and Chelsea Clinton are victims and you are a monster. If the Dems won't help you get your actual wages up, why not turn to the GOP who will at least help you keep your "public and Psychological wage."
If the DNC is so greedy, bought or short sighted enough to completely eschew economic justice and try to win on race and gender politics alone, they deserve to lose.
BTW, I personally, will vote for a Democratic President but I can see the rationality, on the part of low income whites, in voting for Trump over Clinton.

in a way this election is as much of a mess for the Democrats as it is for the Republicans. both parties are putting forth deeply disliked (and flawed) individuals as their candidate (and in so doing are potentially splitting their party).
also, taking a step back and looking at the past few election cycles, the Democrats haven't had many wins in recent times outside of Obama being elected president.
I do think Hillary is in trouble if she tries to cruise through this election. She can't just be the non-Drumpf candidate. She needs to somehow inspire in the same way that Obama did and Bernie has done. But I don't know if she's capable.
