>> I do trust Trump to choose brilliant advisors and action people <<
I guess that’s why Mr. Trump fired most of his ground staff in Colorado before the convention — not brilliant enough?
>> I’m convinced that both Cruz and Trump have their heads so far up their asses they need a periscope to see <<
Yet you say you would vote for either? OK, have it your way.
Yep, Cryin’ Donnie.
You think those delegates who are hundreds of brown shoe party small donorns and operatives, car dealership owners, Sunday School teachers, Rotary presidents, Chamber of Commerce member, insurance salesmen - are on the same level as dealing with Chinese trade negotiators trained by our own Ivy league schools, and with Putin?
Ted’s excellent adventure of squeezing party operatives to claim a TKO after the match is over, and take the nomination from a popularly elected candidate who scored a KO, is and end game to itself
His style of backroom dealing with little fish who think they are big fish has no comparison to winning in a general election - or in dealing with national and global issues. We prefer to give the job to the man who built a multi billion empire dealing with the big fish, not to a Harvard lawyer who studied the republican rule book.

SO whatr happened to Trump the self proclaimed Master of the really really great deal who is going to make everyone tired of winning so much?
He is being outdone by a guy who’s executive experience is running the Texas Solicitor’s office.
Where is Trump’s unbelievable leadership?
he phiny is being exposed not that we are closer to a 1 v 1 race.
apparently not
There is no way Trump is going to come up with the $500 million necessary to run a general election campaign against the likes of Hillary and the DNC. No one is asking that question, yet his supporters think money is just going to magically appear, somehow, when it isn't even available to maintain his state organizations or to do the ground work necessary to win these delegate battles.
>> If he is self funding, why is he loaning his campaign money? <<
Occam’s razor tells the following:
Because he’s NOT self-funding.
>> Is he expecting others to reimburse him at a later date? <<
Gotta be the case, IMHO.
>> How will he raise money when he has absolutely no infrastructure in place to do so? <<
Congrats on an excellent question! I haven’t seen the point raised anywhere else.
>> There is no way Trump is going to come up with the $500 million necessary to run a general election campaign <<
Yeah, but I think the minimum requirements would be more like a full billion.
Trump supporters say that Trump will pick good advisors if he becomes president.
How in the world can they believe that NOW?
That's because, in business, people actually have to practice integrity. So when someone who is basically honest and decent finds himself facing someone who has no scruples, he is taken off-guard. Trump is smart; he'll be watching specifically for dirty dealings now.
.
What leadership skills?
Getting elected Cheerleader does not take leadership.
Nice input....and in business your word is your bond....unlike politics played by sleazeball Ted.
.
>> “Ted’s leadership skills seem to work best when he is out for himself, don’t they ?” <<
.
No, they have worked best at protecting the freedoms that you Trumpie children take for granted.
.
What it says is Trump is not a professional crooked politician like everybody in the Uniparty.
Ah bullshit
I was serving in Southeast Asia when Eduardo’s mother was serving him poutine
