Donald Trump surging in New Hampshire, Iowa
Politico ^ | 7/26/15 | Steven Shepard

Posted on 07/26/2015 8:04:21 PM PDT by entropy12

Donald Trump has surged to the lead in the New Hampshire GOP presidential primary and virtually erased Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s advantage in the Iowa caucuses, according to new NBC News/Marist polls released Sunday.

In Iowa, Walker still tops the field with 19 percent, the poll shows — only two points ahead of Trump, who garners 17 percent. Interviews for the poll began on July 14 — the day after the Walker campaign’s launch event in Wisconsin. The only other candidate in double digits is former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, at 12 percent.

Those lagging behind include a number of candidates banking on strong finishes in Iowa. Neurosurgeon Ben Carson is in fourth place, at 8 percent, followed by former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee at 7 percent, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul at 5 percent, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz at 4 percent and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio at 4 percent.

The marxist criminal Obama has destroyed the USA

Everywhere Obama has planted marxist seeds of destruction

1.TPP
2. Obamacare
3. $200 trillion in unfunded liabilities.America’s $200 Trillion Debt is Closing In
It’s Worse than We Thought
4.18 trillion $ debt
5.getting his FCC gestapo to regulate the Internet
6. HUD racially integrating neighborhoods

7.1000 other seeds
If i had the chance I would have voted for Charles Manson,Stalin, attila the Hun or a chimp or even Biden over Obama as any of these would have done less damage than Obama

Trump isn’t conservative. He’s spouting some soundbites that drown out his liberal solutions,

So how comes he can speak for an hour without a teleprompter and copious notes....?

...and the difference between Trump and most other "politicians" is that Trumps "sound bites" are the truth....or what the PC crowd won't say.

Actually Walker is my 2nd choice out of those running but I’ve always had a big issue with China.
This is some of what Trump says about China in a 1 minute youtube video clip:

Do you get how much more money all of us Americans would make if we would start making things like personal computers here in the USA again? do you know that wealth is power and that would empower us Americans?

Trump’s a genius . He knows how to make $ and he would make the USA make $ and that would make us S .
Trump isn’t controlled by lobbyists and sugar daddy big donors.

My choices:
1. Trump
2. Walker
3. Fiorina

From his book: "“We need a tax system that is fair and smart—one that encourages growth, savings, and investment. It’s time to stop punishing hard work and entrepreneurship. Specifically, we need to do five things.
First, the death tax needs to die.
Second, we need to lower tax rates on capital gains and dividends—two more taxes that are proven jobs and investment killers.
The third thing we need to do is lower the U.S. corporate tax rate from 39 percent to zero.
Fourth, it’s time to get tough on those who outsource jobs overseas and reward companies who stay loyal to America.
Here’s my income tax plan: • Up to $30,000, you pay 1 percent • From $30,000 to $100,000, you pay 5 percent • From $100,000 to $1 million, you pay 10 percent • On $1 million or above, you pay 15 percent"

He did say he would like to impose a ONE TIME tax on the VERY wealthy to pay off the national debt. That was several years ago before Obama ran it up so much so that may not even be a choice now.

But you go ahead and believe whatever you choose.

That tax plan of Trump’s is much more conservative than the one we have now and it would grow the wealth and economy of America tremendously . that would improve or make more conservative the tax system .

I have been conservative my entire life but I hope I have grown and developed that conservatism.

I know my eyes have been opened more and more over the years to the existence of the establishment republicans and who are and who are not establishment. Even though I have always been conservative the definition for being conservative has changed for me.

I am not asking you to vote for Trump. Everyone needs to do their own research and vote for the one they think will represent their ideas.

But please do that research and remember the media is also the enemy.

"You guessed right: we’re invaded by liberal trolls all shilling for Trump."

It's for their outrageous government salaries and pensions. Internet political sites get most of their traffic from schools, government offices and government pensioners in their homes.

The big government spending has gone too far. Electing candidates who will cut that spending is our only chance to avoid economic collapse, default and worse.

You’re in the twilight zone. You’ve apparently missed the great dissatisfaction on FR with how our elected Republicans act once they are in office.

Do you really think Trump will be worse than the RINOs we keep electing?

And you’re wrong about Trump not filling in the details. He’s had a 5 point plan of what he plans to do. You’ve either not paid attention or the plan goes over you head so you ignore it.
