Wonder what else was going on with that one.

Excellent, excellent article. Thanks for posting it. Watch the attack dogs here—they reinforce the point made in the article (though they won’t read it).

It is obvious who I support, but I could easily go for Trump. He absolutely terrifies the left, and the right professional political class. People like Jeb, Mitch (rhymes with), the Orange Weeper, Rove, Soros...

I’d bet a dollar to a donut it will show up again soon under a new screen name.

You’re welcome.

It’s an interesting article as are the responses so I’m glad I posted it.

I’ve never particularly cared about Trump but he is a man to be reckoned with. Quite formidable.

The country has certainly endured lesser men in the highest office.

Trump = Hillary's Perot?

One suspects in the strongest measure that Trump plans to lose the nom, run to the right of the GOPers as an Indy, and then siphon off enough of the easily fooled votes in the general to guarantee the election to Hillary.

I don't trust Mister Trump any more than I trust Perot or the Clintons.

That’s all you have. Trump will switch parties?

Have you any clue about Mr. Trump?

Ronald Reagan had plural marriages.

Next point?

The attack dogs as you call them are extremely frustrated that Trump has leap frogged over their candidate of choice in such a short time. Jealousy is one of the strongest human trait.

Please tell us which candidate you trust! So there can be a honest dialog.

Keep vigilant. The moonbat left and GOPe are starting to shed.

Walker and Jindal come easily to mind.

Several others come close enough.

BTW, I tried several times in the 90s to explain to very nice, otherwise intelligent conservative voters that Perot was a fraud who had no genuine interest in being anything other than a GOP spoiler.

I hated being proven right.

Twice.

Trump "says what he means", does he?

We take you at your solemn word when you say that.

Donald Trump says: "I generally oppose gun control, but I support the ban on assault weapons and I support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun. With today’s Internet technology we should be able to tell within 72-hours if a potential gun owner has a record.

Trump's straight talk on gun control, which he loves for the little people, is clear. He himself has a permit that regular New Yorkers cannot get.

Why do you support a gun grabber who takes part in a two-tiered.system that excludes everyone but the wealthy? Only him and his cronies benefit.

I like Walker, Cruz & Jindal also.

Problem is they all need their rich donors. Their campaigns can not sustain through many primaries without their ultra rich donors and Chamber of Commerce.

OK, so you may ask what is wrong with rich donors? Under normal circumstances, nothing. But our country is in a very dire situation right now. Our education system, Healthcare system, law enforcement and government welfare dollars are under severe strain due to tens of millions of illegals. No one knows how many are here. How can they? They sneaked through the open borders. They claim it is only 11 million. How do they know? Some estimates places the number north of 30 million.

The rich donor class loves the cheap labor of illegals. Why do you think Cruz was coerced into pushing the Pacific trade pact? Pacific countries have very low wage levels. If NAFTA moved so many factories to Mexico, TPP will do even more damage. Factory jobs are middle class jobs.

Trump is not perfect. But a candidate like him, who does not need a sugar daddy, is the only type who can solve this humongous problem of illegals.

Say Walker gets the nom, and Trump runs as an Indy.

For whom would you vote, my FRiend?
