Former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele said Friday he thinks Donald Trump will be the Republican nominee for president.
"I‘m gonna say this and I know people are going to scratch their heads and go ‘what?’ but I don’t think he can [be stopped]," Steele said on 1210 WPHT in an interview posted by BuzzFeed News. "That window has closed and I think Donald Trump effectively closed it over the last couple of months."
"You tell me who stops him and when do they do it," he added, noting Trump‘s strong positions in the polls.
"I don‘t see how that momentum gets stopped right now," he added. "I don‘t know who breaks it. Come on, you’ve had eight months. You‘ve had eight months to take him down."

A wall with a gigantic door he says.
If he builds this wall but has relaxed immigration policies, how about then?
We need our Constitutional Republic restored...something Donald knows nothing about. Empty slogans and bullying tactics are what we’ve endured for 8 long years. Time to end that disaster!
You may be a status quo GOPe hack who knows anymore...
When has Trump taken on his own party? He’s FUNDED the same politicians who are destroying the country.
That's the silliest thing I've heard. The GOP establishment has done everything in their power to stop Trump. Everything. He's even got people like you believing he's a liberal. According to the GOP he's a racist, bigoted, big business New York liberal who is a plant for the DNc. According to the DNC he's a racist bigoted big business uber conservative who will take us back to the dark ages.
The wall is apolitical. It works with both Democrats and Republicans running the show. Immigration both legal and illegal are the issue of about time. Trump talks a good game but he can’t do it as President we’ll find someone who will. At least the right issues are on the radar now.
Who approves SCOTUS judges?
Yeah they would rather have Trump or even Hillary, anyone but the real threat to the democrat/Rino uni-party the most evil of evil Ted Cruz, clinging to that old and worn out constitution.
In the final vote, 5 Republicans joined 56 Democrats and 2 independents in supporting the nomination; 36 Republicans and one Democrat, Senator Ben Nelson of Nebraska, opposed her. In a sign of the import of the moment, senators formally recorded their votes from their desks.The partisan divide over the nomination illustrated the increasing political polarization of fights over Supreme Court nominees, who in years past were backed by both parties in the absence of some disqualifying factor. Ms. Kagan received fewer Republican votes than Justice Sotomayor, who was supported by nine Republicans in her 68-to-31 confirmation on Aug. 6, 2009. Democrats balked at Samuel A. Alito Jr., nominated by President George W. Bush, with only four endorsing him in a 58-to-42 vote in January 2006.
Senate Votes 68 to 31 to Confirm Sonia Sotomayor to Supreme Court
If Trump would become president, I have no confidence that Trump will nominate conservative supreme court justices. If he does nominate a liberal, I have no confidence that our congress would do anything to stop him.
Agreed. Government is big business and only going to get bigger. Obama is taking us down the inevitable path because really at this point we need something closer to a dictator for lack of a better word. Trump will take care of us while Cruz still naively thinks he can shrink government, spread liberty and reignite federalism. The ninth and tenth amendments are antiquated in this day and age and we need to learn to get comfortable with increased federal control of all governing aspects of our lives, including healthcare and marriage. Settled law is settled law.
Contributes to liberals, praises liberals, supported universal healthcare, supported abortion, accepts homosexual marriage, attacks conservatives, flip-flops like a liberal....
Trump: “I’ve known her (Hillary Clinton)and her husband and I really like them both a lot, and I think she really works hard... I think she does a good job... The record of Hillary Clinton and how did she do as Secretary of State probably above and beyond everybody else.”
Trump: “I think he’s (DeBlasio) a smart guy that knows what’s going on really big league and I think he is not going to want to destroy New York,”
Happily, Ted Cruz does have a chance. If he wins in Iowa as expected he’ll use that momentum to do well in New Hampshire, and perhaps even upset Trump. Then it’s a knockdown drag out fight into the South. Should be very interesting.
The 10% is organized, and therefore politically valuable.
Yep, it should get very interesting.
OK...I know this is kind of tinfoil-hattish, but...could Trump actually be the GOPe’s secret stalking horse?
I mean, could they have been behind him all along, behind the scenes, to try to keep out certain other candidates? Granted, he’s making noise about issues in opposition to typical GOPe positions, but maybe they let him stray to get traction, giving them plausible deniability.
I live in Southern Indiana, near an Alcoa plant that is laying off 600 people in the very near future. I know more than a handful of these people. It doesn’t take much prompting to get a response from them about whom they are supporting in the 2016 race- Trump.
Why is Alcoa laying off 600, maybe more? China has flooded the market with cheap aluminum. It’s why I’m more than a little certain that Trump will win in a monumental landslide in November.
I despise the powers that be. They are not of us like they are supposed to be.
“You’ve had eight months to TAKE HIM DOWN.”
The People want him. The media and the established government want to take him down.
That alone proves there is something very bad in this country.
(Along with Hillary Clinton being about as evil as Hitler with a much more selfish philosophy, and still collecting voters.)
Sadly, does Cruz even have a chance?
He never did, this election. But he did better than I thought he would. Enough of the base did see the good in him. If he would be Trump’s veep it would have been perfect. This legal issue has got to be cleared up, and if Cruz won’t get on it, he won’t be the veep. Maybe Trump’s right: Cruz is low in the likeability factor.
We ALL owe Trump a debt of gratitude, most of all for destroying the insidious PC culture.
I believe as President he will be able to more of this. Maybe even frankly shame Europe for not protecting their women, and vow that won’t happen in this country. Europe used to copy everything we do.
No other candidate in my lifetime changed things for the better just by running. Not even Reagan.
