Re Trump and his campaign: It's all political rubbernecking at this point
the prospect of his imploding completely due to his horrible, capering antics, is enjoyable, but I worry that I and others are celebrating his demise too soon.
Beyond that, I worry that we're all becoming so engrossed in Trump's surreal campaign that we're losing the issues for the bizarre spectacle of this unfolding election season.

2. He really is doing the reality show troll persona. Every show has the one guy/gal
that says crap, everyone hates yet always lasts until the end.
The Media reports his latest outrageous comment, we react, commentators react… he stays another week. But he won't win. |

3. I don't think he'll win either, but the freak show is a bad thing- engrossing as it may be.

4. We've been subjected to this crap for nearly 2 years...
We know where they stand on the issues
Let's vote already I'm not undecided - nothing is going to change at this point Trump's white noise isn't preventing me from hearing a game changing stance from Hillary She should stay low profile and let him run his mouth We just have to keep pointing out what a real jackass he is and count the days |

5. I'm actually referring to issues in a more general sense.
to paraphrase Shakespeare: There is more on heaven and earth, Horatio, than this election.
