I would argue that Trump is (at least) a verbal bully; and he sure
doesn't
like getting caught in a lie (which he seems to do more than anyone
else
that's been in the race this year, with the possible exception of Ben
Carson).
I might also argue that Clinton is more conservative than Trump. So the
question would be would you vote for Trump because he's a Republican
(he's
not really), or because he's conservative (he's not that either).

I wonder, has Trump ever punched it out with anyone ever?
I just don’t see a rich kid having much opportunity to do that...
unless
he is a bully, but that would be beating someone up while the toadys
hold
him, not a fair fight.

I'll put up $100... the bet being that Utah will vote Red, regardless

Utah (and Idaho too) will vote Republican. They can talk and say "we
will
never support Trump"... but at the end of the day, both states will be
Red... as always.
I personally have wanted to get rid of the political parties for a LONG
time... let each candidate say what he will do on every subject, and
not be
associated with these "parties" that really don't mean anything
anymore.
Republicans used to believe "this", but now, 20 years later, they now
believe "this". The parties have no real value or benefit, other than
to
keep thousands of people employed.

Have you been watching the news?
It’s a big deal, and I believe they are right, Utah won’t stand for
Trump.
Even if it’s Hilary.
And I think Utah in general would be just fine with a Woman president,
but
maybe I’m wrong.

It's funny that everyone says "You can't say that and win"... yet Utah
has
voted Republican for the last 10 elections (40 years). I think it's a
lot
like Idaho, that many people check the first "Republican" box on the
first
page, and never turn the book to even see who that is or what they even
stand for.
Do you really think if Trump wins the nomination that Utah would vote
for
Hillary over Trump? A woman as President, in a state of 50% Mormon,
where
they don't allow women to hold any real leadership positions?
Trump knows he has Utah and Idaho because they have voted Red for the
last
40 years.

IMO A chief executive should have some experience with the legislative

Foreign policy experience would be something I would look for on a
resume.
Trump has been saying that he doesn’t really mean or believe some of
the
hyperbolic things that have came out of his mouth.
I know the Lt. Gov fairly well here in Utah. His family are 100 year
ILEC owners. Have known them for years.
This is what he said after the Trump speech:
"I need to say this, OK, ...and last night Donald Trump did something
and
said something that I never thought I'd see a candidate for president
do and
say, especially someone in the Republican Party."
"Think about that for a second," Cox told the crowd. "A person running
for
office, in our party, thinks it's OK that if you question his politics,
he
can question your religion. I have a message for the 3 million people
in
Utah for Mr. Donald Trump: That's not how we roll in Utah, and that's
not
how we roll in the United States of America."

It's time for a change... that's the bottom line. Everyone else running
is
a "lifer"... someone that has been in politics or has wanted to be,
their
entire life. Nobody else is going to make any REAL changes. It's time
for
something different.
It's also refreshing to have someone say what they REALLY think...
instead
of giving lip service for six months before the election, and then
having
them not do anything that they said. At least Trump is saying what he
thinks.

Latest polls in Utah show:
Utah, collectively, votes “anyone but Trump”.
(Things were not looking great for him but he really shot his own dick

on Friday).
Polls now show, if Trump is the other candidate, he loses.
No matter if it is Hillary, Bernie, Ted...
Gotta love Utah!
