Hillary and the Donald: perfect frenemies?

[Bernin4U]

Just wondering to get people's takes on this. How different are they really (when not performing their primary season kabuki)?

1. He should take her as VP. n/t

[daleanime]

2. They need each other....

without the other one either would even have a chance at the White House.

[Trajan]

3. It's bullshit and I wish it were not catapulted here in DU

But, hey, it's a boon for Hillary supporters to try to place the two together somehow ...

Like this post, for instance ...

4. The thought has actually occurred to me that Trump is putting on a show

and only a show.

[AgerolanAmerican]

5. so ya thought ya might like to go to the show

I got some bad news for you, sunshine

[notadmblnd]

9. How did you get that out of what I wrote?

12. to feel the warm thrill of confusion

that space cadet glow

[Bernin4U]

14. Gonna be hard to go much further w that

and keep it relevant.

Or... surprise me?

16. tell me is something eluding you sunshine

13. Trump is the Clintons' monkey wrench, lobbed into the gears of the GOP.

You know Bill talked Trump into running, right?

They're planning on turning the GE into some kind of Punch & Judy Show

[notadmblnd]

15. yes I am aware of Bills influence

it's why I said it's just a show.

[99th_Monkey]

18. Yep.. a sick joke on the American public. n/t

[appalachiablue]

19. That's been my impression from the beginning, also maybe a faux 'good cop,

bad cop' act intended to fool the least thinking people. Who knows but stranger things have happened esp. when big power and money are in play.

6. Seems like Kabuki to me.

Joan of Arc vs. Darth Vader in the main event.

[Bernin4U]

8. Hulk Hogan vs Roddy Piper

[jalan48]

10. It has to be the really, really bad guy vs. the really, really good damsel.

[polichick]

7. They perfectly represent two sides of the crony capitalism coin.

[TIME TO PANIC]

11. Trump vs. Clinton will maintain the status quo!

A corporate Democrat will remain president, and the republicans will keep control of the House.
That's their plan, I believe, although I'm not sure that Hillary would beat Trump.

[Bernin4U]

17. To me, the fact that the GOP doesn't like Trump makes him

...far, far less scary than if they fully embraced him. This is a hugely important consideration, imo.

And the less we fear him, the better we're equipped to keep our heads and stand up for what is right.

20. Trump never planned on take it this far

His first Campaign manger was a PR person that knew nothing about running a election run. She was only suppose to guide him for a bit in PR so he could get attention. There was a article about her where she was interviewed about it.
But it backfired on him because he became popular spouting bullshit and he could not just quit. So he is trying his dam best to make people hate him now. The Abortion thing was a major tell because he has always been pro-choice. I think at this point he is just trying to get the Nomination and blow GE for Hillary. Christ he donated to Clinton's 2008 primary.

21. So it may be that Trump is just a setup?

And the plan is for him to take a dive in the 7th round?

Interesting...
