More than 10,500 Fill USF Tampa Sun Dome

He could get 10% of that at a rally
If Trump wins Florida, Bush and Rubio need to call it quits and if he wins Ohio, Kasich needs to call it quits.
It’s clear the “also rans” are desperately trying to hang on until their hoped-for “brokered” convention.
What Medieval writing was that plagiarized from?

It didn’t take long for Trump to start laying into his political opponents, from Jeb Bush to even rising Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders, who Trump called a Communist.
Nearly 11,000 people attended the rally at the USF Sundome Friday night, which officials said was an attendance record.
The heart of the matter...
The difference between a Cruz supporter and Trump supporter...
On one hand someone believes the -man- Trump can save the country though the Art of the Deal, the other believes constitutional principles can save the country ...
Not that Trump is a bad guy, but he isn't going to save the county, applying constitutional principles will since, that's what made us a GREAT COUNTRY in the first place....
Knew it came from someplace....David Copperfield by Dickens.
Which constitutional principle is going to fix immigration? Which one will fix our trade deficits? Which one fixes the millions out of work? I’m quite serious here.
Just like in Iowa... and yet he still won. TV celebrities will always draw bigger crowds. As Iowa proved, that doesn't always mean more votes, and especially doesn't mean a better candidate. Odd how that's the most important thing to some people.
More people live in the Tampa bay area than Iowa and Cruz can’t cheat in Florida.
You know, Jeb Bush sure is t a political favorite and I can’t imagine voting for him, but it seems he is a decent person and for TRUMP to call him gutless and vicious is just flat out gutless and vicious.
“applying constitutional principles”
Well, that’s not the job of the president.
The job of the president is to enforce the laws passed by congress. The president is not a judge nor a legislator. He is a manager. I noticed before that Cruz supporters don’t seem to be familiar with article II. Cruz is applying for the wrong job.
It was a bad deal and our Congress and Obama signed off on it....and much later, it was supported by the USSC.
It's all about the deal.
Same thing with the gay marriage cr**....and the immigration cr**.
Which artful deal is going to fix immigration? Which one will fix our trade deficits? Which one fixes the millions out of work?
Neither approach alone solves every problem. The point is that the Constitution matters more than jobs and trade and immigration... and 16 consecutive years of popular cult-of-personality Presidents proving otherwise, to an already-brain-washed anti-Capitalism generation, is a very dangerous idea.
The Tampa TV stations and local talking heads spent most of their reports ridiculing and mocking the attendees as undereducated, low information rubes. Objectivity was absent in Tampa yesterday.
Who’s to say you can’t do both?
Oh, so you LIKE Obama's pen and phone then? Because Trump will be using them, too... as will every President thereafter. Brilliant.
Hint: Presidents DO have to adhere to the Constitution as well, even if their job is not interpreting it... and using the position to encourage Congress to do their job within the confines of the Constitution i also a very very good thing. Enforcing the laws we already have is also a very good thing. And finally, since the other three remaining major candidates are all elderly Northeastern opportunistic folks who are all eager to operate outside of the Constitution, even while swearing an oath to uphold it, Cruz is the best remaining candidate.
Just so we are clear, what principles besides constitutional principles should a POTUS use as his underlying ideology and belief system when running the Executive Branch...
Since you brought it up: what principles will Trump run the executive branch when and if elected...?
The only principle I see Trump using is - whats in it for Trumps best interest - as a guiding principle, I am not saying that as if it is a bad thing...
The President is not a judge nor a legislator. He is a manager.
He's far more than a manager, he is a leader, sets the tone for the country: morally, ethnically, spiritually...
