This is a classic example of total and complete denial. LOL!
“Trump/Rubio/Cruz.”
Good call. Look for Carson out and Trump to run significantly ahead of the other two all the way home. Trump being the largest beneficiary of Carson supporters. In the end though it might come down to just Trump and Cruz.
I think you’re right, Rubio will be Cruz’s VP, if Cruz gets the nod, it will be a bone thrown to the establishment.
I actually believe, that up until this point that Carson not Trump was the greatest threat to Cruz’s campaign. Carson’s support seems to be largely evangelical and Christian based, but this politico story and admission by the Carson campaign is the beginning of the end for him. Now we should see, a lot of the Carson support go to Cruz, the evangelicals are a big portion of Cruz’s base, it would not surprise me if Cruz takes the top spot in a couple of weeks.
“with Trump beginning a long slide”
This is where Berman really goes off the rails. Internals of recent polling show that Trump supporters have their minds made up. They are not going to switch to Rubio or Cruz. Especially Rubio.
Then there is the uncomfortable fact that there is no time for a long slide. 83 days til Iowa. Historically the voters pay little to no attention to politics until after the Holidays. So three weeks til Thanksgiving and then after that few will be paying attention until after New Years. Iowa is Feb 2nd. There is not much time to take Trump down. He is too smart to get caught in a campaign ending controversy.
In the next several weeks Trump is going to injure if not fatally injure Rubio with this credit card stuff and lets face it he’s an amnesty puke and everybody knows it.
My call is Rubio will trail as a distant third for quite some time and it will likely shake out as a two man race with Cruz never able to close the gap.
Absent an alien abduction Trump is the GOP nominee.
The American people don't know that at all.
Please...not Rubio.
True.
And that means anything.
No one has voted for TPP. Please check your facts before posting.
You mean like a Democrat who had not , while Secretary of State, accepted (thru a foundation controlled by and named after her) serious money from foreign governments? And whose partner (husband) had not accepted huge honoraria from foreign governments?You want a president who has not violated
- Article 1 Section 9:
- No title of nobility shall be granted by the United States: and no person holding any office of profit or trust under them, shall, without the consent of the Congress, accept of any present, emolument, office, or title, of any kind whatever, from any king, prince, or foreign state
It appears you are expecting too much of the Democratic Party.
