Trump doesn’t need to because he is a reality tv star and the establishment media is rooting for him because they are truly terrified of Ted Cruz upsetting the apple cart.

He won’t, if for no other reason that Trump is just as terrified of Ted Cruz as the establishment is.

You are going to have to face the fact that Trump gets the coverage because more people in the country want to watch Donald Trump than any other candidate. It’s a ratings thing. And you are correct, it is a reality show! It is the real world.

But not to worry, now that Glen Beck has teamed up with Ted Cruz, Ted’s ratings should improve.

I think that Ted has to clear up the Canadian-citizen-until-2014 thing before Donald Trump will ask Ted to be his VP.

Trump doesn't need to because he is a reality tv star

His business success and entrepreneurial genius made a smart progression into Broadcast media, and other commercial ventures. He became a reality star as part of that genius.

I suspect it will be a Trump/Cruz ticket. That is because between the 2 of them they will have over 50 percent of the delegates . Trump will hold more so Cruz will have to settle for VP.

A good example is Fox News with their poll that has Trump up by 11 in Iowa, they think their poll is the only poll, which is funny because I have seen them not mention their own poll when another poll suits their agenda better .

Yes I realize CNN also has the same number, but if the same numbers show up as in 2008 they are different when only those are asked.

Fox has Trump up by 3 when 2008 caucus goers are asked, CNN has Cruz up by 2 under same voters.

Hey CBS has Trump only up by 5

But everybody has decided to throw out the other 2 Iowa polls that came out same day as CNN.

One poll has Cruz up by 3 and one with Trump up by 1, this poll could be accurate just as likely as the others.

If I have a worry its that the masses that cant think for themselves, might let the Trump polls affect them.

It’s important not to forget that only a few weeks ago, Trump singularly upset the whole election apple cart!

Trump set the national agenda by opposing illegal immigration and bringing up other issues that the GOPe and their allies desperately wanted to avoid, and now they can’t.

The GOPe was not prepared for this, and as a consequence they don’t have a clue about what to do, hence their almost universal collapse into a pile of quivering jello, flip-flopping like a bag of Mexican jumping beans dumped on a hot griddle.

Trump has exposed those who pretend to be conservative but are really just fronts for big money establishment campaign donors who purchase their candidates with campaign “donations”.

Trump, by actually being a real man, has exposed the other candidates (Cruz excepting of course) and their allies for the weak little sniveling sellouts that they really are.

Trump’s vociferous truth-telling and fearless neutering of the kommie media have been the catalyst that triggered a massive revolt amongst conservative voters who are infuriated at the GOPe Congress doing absolutely ZERO to stop Obama’s agenda, and suddenly the GOP RINO leadership is in full blown panic mode and in full blown retreat, and the SMALL conservative House contingent smelt blood in the water, took heart, and charged in against a weakened, frightened and paralyzed GOPe leadership, and Boehner was taken out as a sacrificial lamb.

Trump is absolutely correct when he says that without Trump in the race, everything would be same-ol’, same-ol. The Joyful Tippy-Toes Turtle would be creeping closer to the finish line, Boehner would still be safely ensconced as Speaker, and there would be no mention of illegal immigration are any of the issues surrounding it by any politician in either party, other than possibly how critical it would be to pass immigration “reform”.

The media are loath to make the connection, but it’s obvious that the Boehner resignation was yet another falling domino, toppling due to the Trump Effect, because Trump’s unabashed truth-telling and fearless neutering of the kommie media triggered a revolt amongst the great unwashed GOP masses which emboldened a few conservative Congress critters to grow a few pairs.

And our nation wouldn’t even be having ANY of these conversations about illegal immigration and the myriad of other Obammunist issues destroying our country if it wasn’t for Trump. Instead, we’d simply be debating which RINO, GOPe squish would be least likely to be stomped by Hillary, and the GOPe would once again be exhorting the “base” about how critical it is for us to once again vote for the “lesser of two evils”, that is, vote for the GOPe side of the Uniparty coin.

And do note that ALL of the oligarchs and plutocrats are frightened to death of Donald Trump because the billionaires and millionaires can’t buy him like all of the other politicians they routinely purchase, because Trump doesn’t need nor want their money, and the kommie media is frightened to death of him because he isn’t afraid of them either, the bottom line being that Donald Trump can not be controlled by the rich and powerful or the corrupt media, so for anyone who is truly for campaign finance reform and wants to take money out of politics, voting for Trump is the only reasonable choice.

President Trump is really the last hope for this country: if he can’t undo any of the damage wrought by the Obammunists, the U.S.A. is done.

So least we forget, the above, and much more, are called “The Trump Effect”.

Why do you keep spamming this same long-winded comment on every thread?
