lucky them

there was always a possibility
but it has become more probable

they have had dimwits before as Prez
and nothing much happened - Truman - Nixon ( not dim but busy ) Bush
Oh! yes AOG, very much so and have been seeing for the past 3-4 months.
However, as I have mentioned in an earlier thread, he will be a different "animal" as President, should he succeed.
More dangerous than Reagan.

Then the Trump/Johnson duo will wreak more damage than even the Reagan/Thatcher couple did.
Depends. If he ends up running against Bernie Sanders, then possibly. But if he's running against Hillary Clinton, then very little chance.
Ah - a bit of a brainy quote but you can take it ...

who can tell what a man will do when you give him power ?

'Some volunteers also wore clothing in support of Mr Trump, but officials said this was not against the rules'

Why mention it then?
/// But if he's running against Hillary Clinton, then very little chance.///

I wouldn't bank on that. The average American seems a bit better informed about Hillary than some ABers.
Don't forget that what Trump is winning are republican caucuses.
Jeremy Corbyn was very popular with Labour 'caucuses' but where is he in opinion polls?
I would bank on it, assuming some strong Independent didn't come in to confuse the middle ground.

Looking at the betting for next President right now, Clinton is 4/6 and Trump is 11/4:

Er, against other Republicans.

For a guy who has no chance, he's doing an annoyingly good impression of someone who might actually win...

The main piece of good news to hang on to if you'd rather not see Trump winning the presidency at least is that so far he's arguably been rather lucky in his opposition. Until recently, he merely had to stand out from a huge field of candidates, who either weren't worth taking seriously themselves (as winners, at least -- Rand Paul, Carly Fiorina, Ben Carson) or who were similar enough that they could split the "anti-Trump" moderate vote (Bush, Christie, Rubio, Kasich). Now the field has been squeezed from over a dozen candidates to just five, while Trump's support has remained pretty flat at 40% or so for a couple of months. It's an open question where Cruz and Rubio's supporters would turn if either pulled out -- but the point is that Trump's best work so far has been standing out from a pack, rather than against a single opponent. He might well be able to adjust to that too, of course. But his campaign style of bluster, bile, divisiveness and just generally behaving disrespectfully to any and all opposition is unlikely to appeal to the moderate voter.

It's no longer impossible, though. I had thought (or hoped) that Trump's support would start to fade once the voting actually began. That hasn't happened (except in Iowa, and even there he was a strong second). So yes, it is a possibility.
Exactly, against other republicans.

altho I cannot really work up interest in who wore what ( clearly I am not a clothing historian ) unless some of the gurlz were wearing - nothing hur hur hur

it is against the law to use the american flag ( aka Old Glory etec ) as part of clothing design

remember the craze for union jack underpants ? deffo out stateside

What collective damage did the Reagan/Thatcher couple do?
It's the "4/6" that stops that, Svejk! Especially as Clinton will be 69 by the time of the election ...
///Exactly, against other republicans///

Dear, oh dear. Give it up, itchi.
Long way off yet.
The problem is the democrat candidates will not be electable to many Americans.

Apparently not.
