Very impressive fellow.

With his father's rendition of NBC requirements, too bad he can never run for POTUS.

Oh, here we get the Hate/Envy the Rich crap from Cruz supporters.

Everyone in NY rides the subway - even the Donald in the 60s and 70s. It’s the fastest way around town. Now whether he does that or even walks around the city these days, I don’t know. Probably not. But any lifelong New Yorker has had to deal with street crime. It’s been better these last twenty years but I’m sure young Donald learned how to take care of himself.

Your idea of him as Little Lord Fauntleroy is ludicrously wrongheaded. Now go back to wrestling bears and forget all about this.

So let me get this straight. Young Shapiro, who I like, is telling Cruz to jump onto Trump's turf, where Trump has flourished for 69 years -- KO-ing far tougher brawlers than Ted Cruz -- and attempt to out-Trump him.

Yah, that'll work.

“He should point out that Trump lied and cheated to win Nevada.

Told folks ALL the other candidates left the state early in the day making it look like they did not care.
Cruz did not leave and was there till late at night.

Trump lied and cheated his way to victory.”

Wow. Have you honestly convinced yourself THAT’S why Trump won Nevada?

“Even as a Cruz supporter it looks like he is done.”

Why don’t you take a deep breath and wait until Tuesday

Trump actually jumped out of his limo to stop a mugging in process.

“Oh brother.... Who are you people kidding? Is this picture supposed to actually be serious?

First he’s a Mexican gangsta, then a Jedi, now he’s a damn comic book character.”

Well... pasty, flabby, noodle armed lawyer just doesn’t have the same epic feel as comic book characters. That said, I think Faora could bust that long droopy nose in real life.

Oh, I forgot about that one! Tell this Davy ‘Catfish’ Crockett here although he’s probably out wrestling an alligator.

I’m sorry, but if the “debates” were the keys to taking Trump out he wouldn’t have just won his third consecutive race. People at this point have pretty much made up their minds and I doubt Cruz, or Rubio will do much via a debate, to change the outcome. People’s anger and disgust with GOP, and DC in general isn’t going to be eased by some knock-out punch in a debate. We aren’t electing another debater-in-chief

Interesting, in that this reveals that Trump’s mother was once mugged. More proof that even the evil rich live in a very real - and at times gritty - NYC.

i read the earlier comment from the self avowed country person and just laughed.

Eagles are fierce predators - the like of which a human would do well to highly respect and fear.

I have spent hours watching them build, hunt, fish etc. from the banks of the Mississippi on the border between Minn. and Wisconsin.

in the winter when the banks where frozen on both sides the eagles, in groups of thirty or more would stand on the edge of the ice and pluck fish out of the water. Quite a site to see.

I like it, but without the media to repeat it endlessly, no one will hear it. The media has the backs of Trump and Rubio.

That’s Trump’s tale of how he lost Iowa.

Has Trump convinced you?

I don’t think Trump needs to respond from this point beyond asking if Cruz blood pressure is OK.


That is what I hope and pray Trump does. Just sit and take it. And when it is his turn to speak, get it back to the issue, calmly and firmly.

If he does that, he wins.

It’s fun reading these articles but the fact remains; as long as Cruz, Rubio, Kasich & Carson remain in the race Trump wins regardless of how he performs in debates. This could be over in 3-weeks.

Trump is not the bully; and this is the very worst approach that Cruz could take. He needs to show how well he can answer the Leftist tide that has been dominant since Clinton, not fight with the choice of most Conservatives. He needs finesse, not a charge up the hill.

As I will state in substance in an article, in a few days on Trump as the answer to bullies:

With a few bold stokes of historic significance, Trump has single-handedly broken the hold that "politically correct" bullies have long exerted over the vast bulk of those euphemistically described as "public servants." It may never be quite so easy to intimidate dissent in the future.

With a few unpleasant but effective platform strokes in the Presidential debates, Trump has totally derailed the plans of political bullies & incredibly wealthy users of those political bullies, to foist another globalist & Neocon influenced Bush on the Republican Party & once sovereign Americans, as a people; clearly demonstrating the tactical impotence of the badly compromised Republican "Establishment" in Washington.

Strange that people think that if Cruz got the better of Trump in one of 16 debates, that Trump voters would switch to Cruz. That isn’t how it works.
