Well ok, the website has some sort of sign-up which I myself refuse to do.

But it seems like a good headline and a good first paragraph, so I'll go ahead with posting this anyway.

:D

And I will repeat the question, just for discussion:

Could Trump actually win?

Absolutely.

But only is he and Ted Cruz lose the Republicans and go Independent. Their alliance would be unstoppable.

The campaign would be unstoppable of course, but the governing body they would assemble will bring us back to our rightful place in the world. They are our only chance to once again be the land of the free; the home of the brave.

It’s the only way. Staying under the RNC umbrella will only hamstring their efforts, if not totally undermine them.

And the time to do this is now. Not after the primaries.

I think he can. We all know illegals are causing huge problems. Either we are a nation of JUST laws...or we are not.

“Could Trump actually win?”

Ask yourself - could he afford the cut in pay?

Obviously he could not be running his financial empire at the same time he is serving as President, that would be a conflict of interest a hundred times as great as the financial shenanigans that Herself, Madame Benghazi, the Cold & Joyless is now embroiled in, and while The Donald may delegate some aspects of running that empire, he probably would not put it in a “blind trust”, normally required of anyone in public office where such a conflict of interest may arise.

The Donald may win sufficient votes for nomination, but he would surrender that to another of practically his personal choosing, and keep a close hand in the restoration of the White House as a cleansed symbol and as the shining center of that “city on the hill”.

My humble opinion is that he can & he better or else America is in deep poopie.

Also that it is imperative that he run as an independent. If he trusts the GOPe to be honest & trustworthy, then he’s not as smart as I give him credit for (which I doubt).
Speaking of deep poopie, can the republicans even win without the South? Cause they’ve made a lot of people decide to sit home or vote third party.

Rule thirteen of the Republican Convention will basically deny Trump the win. This is where almost half the delegates show up and have nothing to do with the primary and are unassigned...the VIP and lobbyists players. Even if Trump takes twenty-five wins of the fifty states, and five guys split the remainder....Trump can’t overcome rule thirteen and the crowd of insider players.

Now, let’s say by some miracle....he does make it past rule 13...then you have a Hillary-Trump situation. I can’t imagine her surviving a single debate with Trump...there’s just no way.

Then you come to 2016 and President Trump having to deal with the Senate. Zero cooperation with the current Republican folks. I think you’d have to replace a dozen Republicans before you’d get any real deals organized. I will admit...it would be curious to watch the lobbyists having to deal with a guy who knows precisely how to deal out an executive order and won’t hesitate.

Absolutely. I watched Morning Joe this morning instead of Fox n Friends.

All the hateful libtards are really worried now, including Howard Dean.

Mark Halprin held a "Frank Luntz" type focus group in NH and the comments even shocked Joe Scarborough.

The main theme of the comments were" Even though DT is rich, he's one of us!"

People are deathly sick of politicians and their scripted words.

They're also utterly sick of the biased news media! LOL.

First of all Im not a Trump fan but will vote for him in the general election. Secondly there wouldnt even be a “Trump” if there was an opposition party to the RATS.

Not only can Trump win, he will win big. He may be the only person alive that can save the Republicans from themselves.

FYI

The Nashua Telegraph is a Libtard newspaper. Even when signing up was free, I stopped reading it.

I wouldn’t put it past the RNC to actually throw the election to the democratic candidate if Trump was to win the nomination. It would be a bigger defeat for the RNC than the democrats. Time will tell.

I hate to rain on Trump’s parade, but the latest polling has him losing to Bernie Sanders 45-37 in a fall matchup.

I believe he could actually win. While he is not my first choice, he might be second.

One thing that Trump has “going for” himself, is that he is already a celebrity in the sense that his handlers have tried to shape 0bama as a celebrity.

Yes. Not without great difficulties, but yes. And not without some very serious strategizing on his part, but yes.

And it wouldn’t hurt for him to read some FR daily. There’s some really good advice here. Any Trump friends reading this? Please pass it on.

Hell yes he can. I didnt think so until I heard Rush explain how. Romney lost cause he missed 4% of the white vote, had he gotten 4 more, he would be prez. Trump ALREADY has more than that wrapped up if he gets the nomination, and not only that but he is pulling from dim-0s,and libertarians also. hillary robbem klipem is pandering to queers, illegals and blacks who she hopes to make believe have targets on their backs put there by Republicans.Let her. Whites are 65% of the population, MUCH easier to pull 4% more out of that number.

IF he is the nominee, he wins.

Here's the questions people should ask themselves. And its not How many ways do I hate Jeb Bush? Why are RINO's so stupid? No it's would Donald Trump make a good President? Do I want Donald Trump on my radio, on my TV, in my life everyday for 4 years? Step back from the "I'm Mad As Hell And I'm Not Gonna Take It Anymore" and think about that.
