In the cases I know, I think its the open-border refugees that have finally made them “blink” in their knee-jerk liberalism. That, and a realization that Obama foreign policy has not made the world a safer place.

No doubt Hillary will be one of the weakest candidates the Dems have offered since Mondale.

Disagree. All the points the media point out I disregard. The more the GOP doesn’t want Trump simply equates to why I should vote for him.

Why are so many so scared of a guy that tells it like it is?

Because he’ll ruin their plans and fight for me.

Washington Examiner, isn’t that owned by Bill Kristol’s son-in-law or owned by the Standard Weakling?

Trump wins in a 50 state landslide.

And carries the black vote, the woman vote, the hispanic vote, the union vote, the gay vote, the transgender vote, the great majority of Democrats, the deceased, the diseased, fat kids, skinny kids, kids who climb on rocks, tough kids, sissy kids, even kids with chicken pox.

good!!

I could be getting lied to also. These people are NOT going to tell me they’re voting for trump.

My liberal Jewish friends, after 8 years of obummer, are certainly wary of Hillary and Bernie.

Yes, like all silver spoon, east coast, big government, pro-abortion leftists - Trump will be most concerned with your welfare.

I cannot comprehend how American Jews could consider voting for anyone besides Trump.

He is by far the most likely to stop the Muslim invasion of America that has already made countries like France almost unlivable for Jews.

My liberal friends are suburban WASCPs, white Anglo-Saxon cultural protestants (aka athiests), so it is a different demographic than your lib friends. Even my Jewish conservative colleague is a bit wary of Trump, so there must be something cultural there.

Then the Bitch waddles into the WH in 2017 and we are all royally f***ed and the American Venezuela will have arrived.

Many FReepers are now saying forget the election and start prepping. Buy ammo before November for sure.

voters can think for themselves. if the gope doesn’t like trump, don't vote for him,but don't deliberately sabotage him just because you don't think he can win. Voters will decide, or maybe not,at least in Colorado.

A very astute analysis. All the “Trump can’t win!” hysteria based on current polling completely ignores the fact that the choice is Trump winning on the 1st ballot or Cruz winning on a 2nd or later ballot. How does Cruz, limping out of a contested convention, then win over the voters of the four purple states Romney and McCain both lost, and which Cruz will absolutely have to win to beat Hillary? Cruz came in a distant third in OH, FL, NV and VA. Even under the best of conditions it would be an uphill climb for Cruz to win them. But Cruz will not have the best of conditions. He will be the winner of a contested convention, something that current polling isn’t taking into consideration. After the damage inflicted by the contested convention process, it will only take a few percent of disgruntled Trump voters in those four states to stay home and Cruz has no path to 270.

Well maybe we should let your braindead liberal friends and relatives pick the GOP nominee. I mean what the hell, give America a choice between two New York liberals. That’ll fix everything.
