I do expect that Trump’s deal with Cruz would be for a compensation that would excite Trump, VP maybe, or Sec. of State maybe?

TRUMP should start a drone security air fleet. Like 20 of them, armed and full of video, lasers, you name it. Show the border patrol all the illegals coming across, put it on facebook, youtube.....oh fun times on the border.

Just don’t get captured. You know how you feel about those kind of people.

At this point it’s just lazy trolling. I always ask these psychics for the powerball numbers but they can’t even do that.

How can the border patrol stop anyone from going to the border? They can’t stop the Mexicans from coming to the other side then across to our side.

Anyone can go to the border. They don’t have to meet with Trump but he should go anyway.

Perry toured it a bunch of times and got on TV and talked and talked and talked and talked....and he’s still talking.

Or Calvin Coolidge busting the Boston police strike, telling them no one has the right to strike against the public safety.

“The strike proved a setback for labor unions, and the AFL discontinued its attempts to organize police officers for another two decades.”

I’d say the odds of that happening are four to one.

I am not dismissing Trump as a quitter- I have way too much respect for him for that. However, I also have a great deal of respect for his business acumen, and I know that he knows that he will never be nominated as the Republican candidate, and that he really could make a mark as a third party candidate, but I don’t believe that he will go down that road. I really believe that some sort of coalition has been negotiated between Don and Ted.

Thanks for the ping.

This is awful news to hear but let’s see how Trump responds to this. One thing we know now is Donald Trump does not back down and he may very well turn this setback into a winner for his campaign. Let’s wait to see how he handles this.

How can the border patrol stop anyone from going to the border?

They probably can't, but the local BP in Laredo, Texas invited Trump to come tour the border with them, then the national BP union stepped in and prohibited the local BP personnel from following through and giving Trump the tour they'd planned.

I think Trump is still going, but some new plans would have to be made on short notice.

“This is awful news to hear but let’s see how Trump responds to this.”

Knowing Trump, he’ll make a yuge PR meal out of it. Even more mileage than if it had been a perfect trip.

If anyone gets wind of what Trump’s backup plan is, for his border visit, please ping any details. TIA.

Need to call it a night. But a final thought. Unions negotiate contracts that specify compensation and many working conditions for a period of time, but they do not direct the day-to-day work activities of members, the company, or the government in this case does that.

I hope some reporters and attorneys untangle this soon because it makes no sense that a union could cancel these type plans of a local BP station.

1. Trump stated today/yesterday that he would be Republican candidate and not consider or go 3rd party.

2. You state: "I know that he knows that he will never be nominated as the Republican candidate." How so? How do you know this?

I can just see Trump saying: *I don't care.*
