I gravitate between hope and realism
“ They” will only allow him to win if “ they” think they can control him or at least, use him
After the obama elections we were done with fair elections and no one in power is disturbed by that
But the fraud that could be required to defeat a Trump this time will be massive - massive
You are right on and people need to be patient.
Plus Mr. Trump has the support of this group, plus other groups such as Rolling Thunder and other patriotic biker and non-biker groups.

So to correct you, I do not believe Mr. Trump has the BEST of protection, so I would not worry.
The same group of “brainwashed kids” who have come out in support of Sen. Bernie.

“Can Trump take down Hillary now?”
Who assigned the witch the default position? The question should be can Hillary take down Trump?
I think that later in the campaign it would be quite appropriate for Trump to promise actual investigations by the Justice department into several matters that truthfully were not investigated fairly by the Obama justice dept.
It is not ethical to announce that you WILL prosecute some particular case—that is never up to a president, and we don’t want to do what Obama did, which is to totally politicize the Justice Dept. But it IS ethical and proper to promise to have your FBI and Justice dept. do REAL investigations of, for example, “Fast and Furious”,
Lois Lerner and the IRS scandals involving destroying Lerner’s emails.
These were only actually looked into by congress which has no real investigatory powers (search warrants and the like) and can really do no more than yell at people during hearings. I believe that were that to occur, Lerner and the current IRS chief would be prosecuted, and possibly Eric Holder himself.
In the United States, the pardon power for federal crimes is granted to the President of the United States under Article II, Section 2 of the United States Constitution which states that the President “shall have power to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States, except in cases of impeachment”.
The U.S. Supreme Court has interpreted this language to include the power to grant pardons, conditional pardons, commutations of sentence, conditional commutations of sentence, remissions of fines and forfeitures, respites, and amnesties.
Sen. Cruz spent years planning such a campaign. It doesn't work. Most people don't vote ideas and policies. For President, 47% vote for the free stuff, and the remaining 53% have to be coaxed to the polls with something more than ideas and policies; they need someone who makes them think He Cares About Me. The last Republican candidate with that ability was Reagan; Trump has it, and he might as well run on it.
Trump wants her to be the Dem nominee before he goes for the take down. Let her get into the general campaign mortally wounded and then launch the full-throated attacks.
Agree. The broader the indictment and the more Clintons it targets (Bill and Chelsea), the more $$$ Obama can get as a donation from the Clinton Foundation to the Obama Foundation in exchange for a pardon, imo.
The new young socialist can win in that situation, just like they did in Canada.
So, then, identify this young, energetic new face. This is the crux of the Dems' problem at present. They don't have any, and thus were largely forced to run Clinton and Sanders, both of whom are well past their prime. Biden? You've got to be joking. He had what, at least two unsuccessful bids for the Dem POTUS nomination, with the last garnering him a consolation prize of the Vice Presidency.
The youngest face the Dems have proffered of late, besides Obama, was John Edwards. His failure to keep his thing in his pants have totally ruined his potential to campaign and win, since BillyJeff should be viewed as a fluke, unlikely to ever be repeated, as the media had to expend way too much capital to keep *him* afloat (have you noticed that the media has been on an ever downward spiral since those days? I have, and it is no coincidence...)

It is within Obama's power to pardon either or both of these criminals. Generally that is done at the end of the term but that is not a requirement.
Will Obama pardon Hillary? Or Bill? Who knows? It's going to be an historically interesting next 6 months. Stay tuned.
“What is your big rush? The longer this stews, the more damning it becomes for Hillary. Even the liberal press is now starting to realize she has been lying to them, and the citizens, the whole time.”
Right, and not only that but the nearer the election is when she’s indicted, the less recovery time the Dems have for Plan B.
This all seems to be going swimmingly to me... :-)
the people are THAT STUPID.
JUST that he says he is going to tax us 90% right there the electorate is just plain dumb~!
Not good for the rest of us too by the way.....as you have seen over the past 7.5 years.....
Notice I said the scandals shouldn’t be ignored.
If you make a good case for the ideas and policies, the ones we believe in, people will know you care about them. However, if you just list the ideas and policies like you’re making a PowerPoint presentation, yeah, people won’t feel you care about them at all.
“What if he explains that he will have his DOJ prosecute FBI & DOJ Officials who are obstructing this case.”
However, he CAN say that when his Attorney General gets settled in (about 5 minutes after being sworn in), he will order him to have the DOJ undertake a comprehensive internal review of all investigations undertaken by the Obama Administration involving Democrat politicians, to ensure that no favoritism was shown to them. That’d get the message through, LOUD & CLEAR, to the FBI and the higher level DOJ personnel.
I’d also like to see him promise a thorough investigation of the “Fast & Furious” gun-running operation that Obama’s ATF carried out, with a promise of prosecution for crimes up to and including being an accessory to murder, assuming that the investigation turns up any wrongdoing (and how could it NOT do so?).
That’ll create a few headlines.
