LINK Would you like to see Trump bow out now?

LINK Not just yet.

Prior to this question I just asked you, you had made the case that the media was in collusion to silence Cruz and Walker.  I mentioned that Trump getting the most attention wasn't favorable to him, since it was all totally negative.  This didn't disuade you from thinking that it was all still a big plot to hurt Cruz and Walker, because they wouldn't get any attention.  I asked you the above question, because there is something obvious to me here that you seem to have missed.

When Trump is not longer in the picture  (if this should take place, and I don't see that happeing) seemingly by your deisre, what do you expect then?

Cruz and Walker then being our first choice, do you expect them to then get total favorable reports on the news unlike that brash Trump guy?  You know better than that.  They will be trashed non-stop.

The difference will be, that Cruz and Walker are not the brash loud untouchable selves that Trump is.  The hoped for improvement for Cruz and Walker wouldn't materialize.  They won't be drowned out by someone who voices the best of Conservatism.  They'll be drowned out by the Leftist Media, with no good message being delivered.

You would have simply helped usher a guy off the stage that cold have helped us.

I mentioned this in my comments to you, but you didn't respond to it.  If Trump is such a Leftist, why is every Leftist entity trying to destroy him?  The Democrats are.  The Republicans are.  The media is.  The special interest groups are.  The same media that pummeled McCain just prior to the 2008 election, are now trashing Trump for doing what they did.  Are these people and entities now your friends?  Don't you see that they are still your number one enemies?  Pardon me, but you don't.

I'm not trying to be mean here, but look at who Trump's enemies are.  Are Leftists your pals?  No.  And yet here you agree with them.  Is the GOPe your pal?  No.  And yet here you agree with them..  Is the Leftist media your friend?  No.  Yet again, here you are siding with them against Trump.  Is La Raza your friend?  Is McCain your friend?  Are any of these peoply your friends?  I'd like an asnwer to that, because you are acting like all of a sudden these people are your friends, they have your and the nation's best interests at heart, and folks like me who appreciate and support Trump are your enemy and completely crazy for opposing them.

You brush Trump aside.  You can't trust him.  You accept the alliance with all these Leftist entities.  You can trust them.  You brush folks like me aside.  You can' trust me, but you can trust the leading Leftists of our time.

I know you folk are amazed by my support for Trump.  You can't believe I am that stupid.  I guess you also think I'm stupid for not lining up with the leading Leftists of our time too.

As long as Trump continues on like this, he's got my vote in his hip pocket.  I have prayed for a guy like this for decades.  Now that he is here, I am not going to look a gift horse in the mouth.

He's the only guy since Reagan that has had the guts to stand up and tell it like it is.  And he's the first guy since Reagan who has been broadly attacked by the leadership in both parties and the media for having done so.

Before I take a stand to be a fellow traveler with the likes of the people who are attacking Trump, I'll drop off the fourm and hang it up.

If Trump is a clown then so are lots of Freepers who’ve been saying similar things for years

My point is that the left and media (same thing) are giving Trump all the attention on purpose to crowd out actual conservative voices.

The media is “attacking” Trump, which is all part of the show.

Look who's atop all the polls! Mr. TRUMP!

Has it occurred to you that the media are attacking Trump to get the strongest candidate out, so that the GOP will be stuck with another "nice" RINO loser?

I understand where you are coming from. At some point you’re simply going to have to admit the guy’s views are surprising, but they are real. After weeks of him explaining the finer points of Conservatism to folks, you’re going to have to come up to speed and realize this guy shouldn’t be dismissed out of hand.

It’s one thing to claim you’re a Conservative. It’s another to explain time and again the finer points. Leftists can’t do that. Moderates can’t do that. The reason we’re against Jeb and Marco is because they can’t articulate Conservatism. Trump can.

In the Van Susteren interview she asks trump about Common Core. He immediately answer here with an answer that is sound. As part of his response he expands telling here all education should be local, not Washington based.

GeronL, I’ve watched him do that over and over and over again. He knows the subjects. He addresses them from the right perspective.

I can’t explain it. He’s for real. He has filed. He’s in it to win it. You can either listen and be thankful he’s opening the eyes of the nation to bedrock Conservative values, or you can remain upset that he’s doing something that hasn’t been done since Reagan.

He’s appealing the Reagan Democrats and Conservatives.

Listen to his interviews. Take a couple of days and listen to him touch on just about every issue important to us. And note that he’s doing it like we would.

He’s not using a teleprompter. Nobody is whispering in his ear. This is the real Trump.

This guy is not a Democrat. He’s a registered Republican.

He’s also a lifetime member of the NRA.

Trump is smoking the rats out of the woodpile. A necessary and dirty job that nobody else in the GOP was willing to do.

We have very serious problems in this country that need to be fixed. This won’t get done if we elect another professional politician who is a PC apologist. It will take bold leadership from someone who is not focused on their political career and who is willing to get their hands dirty. We need a new sheriff to clean things up and run the rustlers out of town.
