Trump's grip on race unchanged by national security focus

Worcester, Massachusetts (CNN)Establishment Republican presidential candidates like Jeb Bush have seized on the sudden focus on national security to boost their credentials and try to knock Donald Trump from the top of the pack.

But days after ISIS claimed responsibility for killing more than 120 people in mass shootings and bombings across Paris, Trump's fans are showing no signs of wavering in their support for the New York real estate mogul. In fact, at his campaign rallies this week, Trump said they were more convinced than ever that he is best qualified to be commander-in-chief and confront ISIS.

"He makes decisive decisions and he doesn't back down. He doesn't go around the world apologizing," said Melissa Gower, a 43-year-old registered nurse from Chicopee attending Trump's Wednesday rally in Worcester. Tom Berry, a 48-year-old contract from East Windsor, Connecticut, echoed Gower.

I scrolled through MSNBC for a bit tonight. MadCow was going nuts of Trump’s statements about tracking Muslims etc. I mean going crazy. But, no doubt his poll numbers will go up 5 or 6 points based on these statements.

Rubes should drop after his attack on Cruz for his support of a bill that stopped mass data collection on Americans.

Rubes is just stinking clueless about so many things.

It’s because a lot of us who support Trump feel that “bombing the s__t out of them” is a perfectly viable and effective strategy. Look where Kerry and all of his “nuance” has gotten us.

General Commandante Hugo Chump

He’s a military genius because Wharton gave him more experience than most combat veterans, so says the chump.

I could live with Trump or Cruz or both. The sad thing is many of us are trying to tear apart the best two hopes we have had for a president since Reagan.

Yeb! Rubio, and the GOPe are cheering those freezers on to do their dirty work.

perhaps you are not seeing reality

perhaps you are blinded by improper perception of being conservative

perhaps you are just plain wrong in your exuberance

That is the pot calling the snow black. I do not fall for the Trumpaganda. The man has a history that proves me correct and his antics on the campaign trail reinforce it.

I am not going to abandon my principles for this fraud. He’s not even a good counterfeit.

It wasn’t Wharton. You are nothing but a rabid know nothing.
