That's all well and good, but the GDP rates were through the roof during the Reagan years, they averaged nearly 3.5%.  Far superior to what we see today.   Workforce participation is at nearly a 40 year low, which completely skews most employment statistics that would likely be pretty meager today if considered.  

I was not implying you were toting Democrats, simply that what better realistic alternatives currently exist?  Trump was in the private sector, ofcourse he would take whatever he could to improve his bottom line (As has every other business). 

I don't think many are painting Donald Trump as Warren Buffett.  Then again,  Warren Buffett isn't running for President.   So above average in terms of investment growth, significant experience globally in business,  private sector experience (employing 10,000+ people).  I'd consider that experience tangible and light years ahead of "Wife of Bill Clinton",  "Socialist promising the world",  "Son and Brother of Presidents".  And I suspect that this is a primary driver of why many support him.   

 

Trump does not care for the average American citizen nor does he give a damn about the poor.  Sanders does.
Trump is a known asshole and terrible person to do business with.  He has screwed over many, filed for bankruptcy multiple times, and has the reputation of the arrogant douche who thinks he is right and you are wrong.  To me and many others, he brings out the worst in people and directs the blame to someone undeserving.  The outside world laughs at the US for considering him. 
First off, he said climate change was a hoax invented by the Chinese.  What an idiot...  Then he said he wants the guys in Silicon Valley to shutoff the Internet for enemies in the middle east.  What an idiot...He wants Muslims to ID themselves and register in a government database...What an idiot....
His constant jabs and Jeb and other candidates is just sad to watch.  Entertaining, but sad that is the best the Republican side has to offer.

Thankfully, Sanders would annihalate him in a general election.   He just needs to get pass Hillary, who is a complete corporate scumbag. 

 

Just because Sanders 'cares' for the poor, doesn't mean the ideology that he's proposing to fix it is any good.    Beyond that, you rattle of a bunch of unproven statements and subjective opinions.  Learn the differences between bankruptcy and then we can continue that discussion.    

Nobody in the US should be basing our political decisions based on what the 'rest of the world' wants us to select.  The rest of the world's interest is never serving the United States.  He's not a scientist, why would you care about his opinion on something so conroversial?   What's wrong with working with some of the tech giants to restrict terrorists form of communication?  

Sanders likely won't even get past Hillary at this point.  Let alone win a general election.

 

I know why he filed for bankruptcy...but to do it 4+ times is just sad that he had to resort to it.   

Sanders wants healthcare for everyone with no ridiculous deductibles or insurance companies who solely exists to but profit above people.  Even your employer would pay less.  Sanders also understands Big Pharma is ripping people off in this country and will end it.   Cheaper education, investing heavily in better infrastructure, 90 days of paid family leave to be with your newbown, breaking up the banks that are too big to fail, taxing wallstreet (who taxpayers bailed out in 08' and have gotten nothing back from them) as well as preventing the US from deploying ground troops.  
Such crazy ideas man...Your fellow countrymen should help each other out.  No one should have to go into debt for needing cancer treatments, absolutely no one.  If you think any of those is impossible or not useful,  then you are part of the problem. 

You have Sanders who has been saying the same thing for decades.  Amazing how the things he preached against have came true and screwed our society (corporte power over government).  

Clinton or Sanders will be the next president; that is simply a given.  

What's wrong with working with some of the tech giants to restrict terrorists form of communication?
That is not how the internet works, you cannot just pick and chose and there are plenty of ways around DNS blocking.  He hasn't a clue as to how the internet works and thinks America owns it for some ignorant reason.  
Nobody in the US should be basing our political decisions based on what the 'rest of the world' wants us to select
When we have clowns like Trump and Palin making headlines, the rest of the world just sees us the strerotype "dumb American."  At least they believe Obama is a well-spoken and intelligent leader even when half of our country doesn't because the stereotype is someone true...
He's not a scientist, why would you care about his opinion on something so conroversial?
CO2 emissions are at an all time high.  If we care about the planet we will lower them through renewable energy housing and infrastrucutre.  Something Trump has never talked about.  Hell, he probably wants more government welfare and subsidies to go to the Oil companies.  

Trump paraphrased: "I would want all Muslims to register and sign up and be placed into a specific database."  Why would anyone vote for him? Its sad.  

I mean Trump literally said he could shoot someone and not lose supporters.  That shows nothing but his narcissistic attitude, how little he cares about his supporters and how uninformed he thinks his supporters are. 

Sanders would annihilate Trump in the GE.  With Clinton it would be closer, but she'd still win easily.
