Yeah, I know most of you will say this generally no bias down the middle website is ''Dime...krap'', but then you folks also actually consider FOX ''fair and balanced''!

Anyway, the poll says 70% of people who call themselves Republican WISH Donald would withdraw.  Only 4% think he actually might do it and 40% think there is the possibility.  The country and the GOP would be much better off if he did.

And the American Action Forum has published a report finding that the cost of the Clinton/Kaine domestic agenda would, despite hiking taxes to the tune of 1.3 Trillion, still fall short 2.2 trillion.  Guess we have to ask the Chinese for another loan or two.  The national debt according to this report would reach 25.85 billion by 2026.  Funny that the press seems so concerned with the one man who understands the danger of debt and its effect on our children and grandchildren and is willing to take the hard, necessary steps to affect change.  Wake up Archie.  Focus on the important and critical and attach little weight to what the MSM and establishment tries to tell you.  Can't wait for Clinton to actually run on her accomplishments.

Politico only contacts gubment free cell phone numbers of EBT card holders who are lifetime Medicaid slugs.  Now, try to at least get on the same page as Americans who earn a living, bring home a paycheck, are not in prison, and can read and write.

If you are gonna believe polls, I find it interesting that after all of Trumps insulting comments,offensive remarks and other blunders he is only behind by 4 points. Clinton can't be happy about that. Just shows me how unpopular she is.

Not sure who or what the American Action Forum is, but I have seen results from several un-biased analytical groups that have looked at the economic and tax proposals of both Clinton and Trump ( to the extent that he has actually offered any real proposals ).  Clinton's are not pretty but Trump's are MUCH worse relative to jobs, deficit and debt!! Don't take my words for it, research it yourself. Use actual apolitical and unbiased sources and I think you will be surprised. I do recall one of the reports put Trump's National debt  increase the 3 to 5 trillion higher than Clinton's in the same timeframe.

I tend to favor the poll of folks that turn up to see them in person.  Saw two pics the other day.  Trump was in Jacksonville with 15k plus overflow outside I  the heat. Same day Hillary was in a school auditorium that was Less than half full and most of what was there were the students as evidenced by the jerseys the kids were wearing. This is not an isolated incident. The MSM put out a photo of the same event that gave the illusion of a packed house for her.  If Trump had empty seats that would be all you would see from the MSM.

Archie,

Not too difficult.  Google it. Impressive group that runs it.  President : Former director of CBO.  Take a look at the leadership, staff and expert bios.  Doubt you will find this much commentary and info on a wide range of subjects that has this much factual basis with references.  Does not go through the prism of the MSM.  This is what adults read.

What is your take on Hillary saying she will raise taxes on the middle class.

OK I did.  AAF is associated with the Koch brothers, they are not unbiased but do hate Trump.  It is headed by Douglas Holtz Eakin, also not unbiased but highly respectede (he hates Trump too!)  Are you familiar with AAF's assessment of the costs of implementing Trump's immigration policy? Cost $400 to $600 billion, dangerously shrink labor force resulting in wage a consumer inflation, reduce the GDP $1.6 trillion.

The Tax Foundation, a think tank that certainly will never be mistaken as left wing, has analyzed Trump's tax proposal.  Government revenue would be cut $12 trillion ($10 trillion when scored dynamically) 10 years out.  The poorest 20% of Americans would pay an average of $128/year less (1%) while the 1% with the highest income would save $275,000/year (19%).  I guess that is good news for you!!

I could live with Trump's tax and economic policy, I wouldn't like them and they will be a big drag on the economy but they will not fundementally endanger the nation.  The balance of his beliefs coupled with his ego and unstable character and hair trigger temper just might.

Didn't you mean to say "shrink people on gov't assistance illegally" instead of "shrink labor force"?
