Does that mean he plans on being Ross Perot handing the election to another Clinton?

Same thing I was thinking. When Trump does not win the nomination, I hope he will get out, or else he could be another Perot.

Trump is tireless at free PR promotions. Is there a show that has any kind of ratings that he won’t go on if invited? I bet even if crying Glenn Beck invited Trump on he would eventually accept. These shows are free live Trump promos and ads. Brilliant.

Describes what Trump is doing and how he is doing it precisely, I sum it all up like this: Trump is whoever and/or whatever you want him to be.

Not saying that is a good or bad thing, only that it is working for him as he manipulates hearts and minds, and it works for him because he has nothing to lose and everything to win regardless how it all turns out he will be a winner, a huge success, while other candidates are ever so dependent he is free to be as independent as he wants, say what he wants, do what he wants and change as much as he desires.

There is already a revolution going on in the Republican party.

Jebbie could be the current Taftie to Trump’s TR. Taft lost every primary to TR but still won the nomination.

He should say that when he is below Kasich and Graham combined, then he will get out.

Brilliantly played Mr Trump. Man has more media manipulation skill in his little finger then the rest of the candidates combined.

I wish Trump or Carson or Curz would come out and say

"President Obama has established a dangerous precedence of signing executive orders to impose his agenda on the people. When elected, the 1st 5 days of my Administration, I will reviewing the Presidents Executive orders and undoing those that are clearly against the will of the voters"

The only thing that will implode is what’s left of that idiot Glenn Beck’s tiny brain.

Brilliant, perhaps. But every other presidential candidate has had the same opportunity. Any major presidential candidate has always had pretty much a standing invitation for practically any news/talk show they wanted to be on. Only Trump however, has taken full advantage of this. Why?

I think the reason why is because every other presidential candidate is afraid of an unscripted "gotcha" moment. So they surround themselves with handlers and they negotiate their few appearances so that risks are minimized that they will have a gaffe or worse, a campaign-ending moment like that Roger Mudd interview of Teddy Kennedy.

Trump on the other hand is utterly fearless. He plunges into every TV opportunity offered up to him and doesn't worry about making a gaffe. Of course, the media are clamoring to get him on their shows as they are hoping that they will be the ones that finally get Trump to say something so outrageous that it ends his campaign. This would make them a hero to the rest of their counterparts in the media.

It's basically a win-win situation all around. The media are enjoying high ratings and an opportunity to be the ones who finally destroy Trump and Trump is getting all this free publicity for practically nothing.

So far, Trump is winning.

Ou know, when RR first met with his big staff, they gave him a binder with all Jimmy Carter’s exec orders. He gave it back to them almost immediately with a hand scrawled “Cancel them all.”

Not true! I’ve heard every Fox social media commentator say Trump’s days are number and he is getting out soon. /sarcasm

I don’t want a president. I want a wrecking ball.


Exactly. Thanks, I’m using that in conversations.

To qualify it, I want that wrecking ball aimed at all of the hopes and dreams of every socialist scum in our borders.

It will take a wrecking ball to drive out the villians from DC.

Trump is whoever and/or whatever you want him to be.

A hundred twenty days ago that appeared to be the case. Appeared to be, but really wasn't, as Trump already had positions, he simply hadn't articulated them. Except for illegals.

Suppose I want him to be an amnesty supporter?

Your theory doesn't work, does it?

Suppose I want him to be for gun control?

Your theory doesn't work, does it?

Suppose I want him to support socialized health insurance?

Your theory doesn't work, does it?

Suppose I want him to go along with the current tax arrangements?

Your theory doesn't work, does it?

Until you shake off your TDS, you'll have to go back to your puppet candidate.
