Make sure the popcorn is ready for the first GOP debate!!
Why do you keep bringing up Perot?
He was an independent siphoning votes from the GOP.
I know Perot ran as an independent.
Perot took votes from a number of reasons.
First, Bush Senior broke his promise of “read my lips, no new taxes”
then signed new taxes into law. That was a no, no.
In addition, the GOP of that era, like the GOP of this era ignored the
concerns of millions of Americans.
What both era’s have in common is that the GOP ignored the concerns
of millions of Americans,
Rubio is a schmuck. I can’t believe I used to like him.
And that is understandable too.
As does anyone else who's on the wrong side of this issue.
Republicans have been getting away with the soft-shoe on this issue because the CoC had them ALL bought off.
Everyone stinkin' one of them.
It is currently IMPOSSIBLE for Republican or Democrat candidates to get essential funding without towing the line on immigration.
But Trump is self funded and can say what EVERY AMERICAN KNOWS.
If he stays true to this message, intermingled with trade and appropriate power projection, he'll win 50 states in Nov 2016.
And to most politicians in our country, as well as the media, the truth to them might as well be a turd in their punchbowl.
Completely agree.
Rubio was an illegal loving turd when he was in Tallahassee.
I was there and watched it.
“In fact, Trump’s utter simplicity is trumping the other campaigns. He tweets out 140 characters and all hell breaks loose. I mean, LOL!!”
So much truth in your statement. I’m not a huge fan of Trump’s views, but I am a huge fan of his style.
The rest of the GOP is paralyzed by their Washington insider political consultants....the same incestous group that has lost election after election.
Trump is on to something. His brash honesty is refreshing.
Ahh, so that is what you meant. Sorry! :)
>> When he takes Cruz out <<
I guess Trump will give it a shot. But do you think he’ll succeed?
>> He says a few things you people like and you support him? <<
Welcome to FR!
Ok, I'm calling bullshit.

Cruz supports the legalization of illegals here now.
What do you call that?
Additionally, he supports increasing the number of H-1B visas to 500,000 per year AND allowing them to bring their families.
Trump is to the RIGHT of Ted Cruz on Immigration.
The facts are important.
Trump has added interest in the election and in the illegal alien problem that the candidates hadn't accomplished. Now we have Rubio's poll numbers dropping and the wimp Jeb whining about being offended.
>> didn’t Senator Cruz vote NO on the TPA bill? <<
He was for it before he was against it.
Only after first voting yes.
Still better than a lifelong liberal democRAT Donald Trump.
Somehow I'm thinking of the scene in Stalag 17 where all the (mostly) dufus clueless prisoners, who would be all the other Republican candidates of course, are gathered around as William Holden lays out the case that the Nazi mole in the barracks is none other than Peter Graves...
The facts are important.
Yes, they are.
Just last week liberal Donald Trump hero said he was for a "path to legal status" for ILLEGAL aliens as long as they work hard and are "productive". That is amnesty.
On May 30, 2015, Senator Cruz said he was “unequivocally opposed to amnesty” (his exact words) at the 4:27 mark in this video dated May 30, 2015.

You are so uninformed in your desperate attempt to defend liberal Donald Trump it is laughable.
