Trump knows Hillery well. He knows how to take her apart piece by piece and will hang her dirty laundry out to dry.Why do you think the RINOs are in such a panic? The UNIparty screwed up on choosing Bush, are now trying to push the sellout Rubio down our throats but are not at all averse to Hillery....after all, it’s her turn.” They are having convulsions that Trump just may run away with the prize because then they will lose all their power and most of all their money! Trump won’t be bought and paid for like the others.

To deal in business one must have a knowledge of law both foreign and domestic. That’s just for starters. One must have a “feel” for the foreigner you’re dealing with and his culture. Managing a business, especially on the enormous scale of Trump’s company, is the same thing as “governing” because that is what you are doing, governing the day to day business of the company with an eye to making a profit.....which Trump is obviously very good at doing. Developing, expanding the business and dealing with the enormous amounts of risk forces a thorough understanding of the ins and outs of the financial world. Vision, imagination, the ability to create and the ability to think on your feet....all are a part of running a business.
It amazes me that so many people think Ted Cruz is equipped to run the government when he has spent his life in the world of law and not much else. He has not fought his way to the top in the REAL WORLD like Trump has. He hasn’t even been exposed to the vicissitudes which haunt the business world because he has existed in the safe world of law...most of the time as a public servant....on the payroll of the state. That is not to say he is not an excellent lawyer and an expert on Constitutional Law, but where are his other qualifications, his knowledge of a myriad of intricacies which are daily challenges to someone in the business world.....especially in real estate development and the hospitality business. Trumps wide range of expertise so dwarfs Cruz’s that factually Cruz isn’t even in the same ballpark with Trump. He just may as a stretch be at the outer edge of left field. Cruz has a lot to learn. America needs the kind of mentality Trump possesses and needs it Right Now. If we are going to save this country, we have to do it now by choosing the one man with the proper tools for the job. You don’t send a plumber to hang a chandelier!

While there are some similarities in terms of negotiations, Trump doesn’t have it quite figured out that he can’t summarily fire the people he doesn’t like working with. He thinks he can simply glad-hand a hardball player like Putin and all will be well. The world doesn’t work that way. This isn’t “Celebrity Apprentice.”

And on the home front, as for deporting the 20 million illegals bedded down in this country, while their deportation is a nice hope, Trump has never detailed how he thinks he’s going to get that through a 60-vote passage in a Senate that very likely is going to be 51-49 either way.

Hillary Clinton : QUEEN ISIS..... Benghazi her crowning achievement.. To clandestinly funnel arms to the anti-Assad barbershop quartet gang ISIS..

Marco Rubio : The Whore of Constantinople.

That we can agree on.

You know what? I get very tired of listening to all the defeatism come out before someone can even try. There used to be an old saying: A European would say, “It is impossible, it can’t be done,”
An American would say, “Why not try. It just might work!”
In the Second World War it was a major difference between Americans and English. The American ingenuity saved the day on more than one occasion.”Sure, I’ll give it a try!”
We put a man on the moon first even though we got in the race very late. It is called the American Way. Trump has that positive attitude and I’ll guarantee it’s had a lot to do with his success.

Trump is smart enough to KNOW how to negotiate with different people in different ways. Just like Reagan beat the overcoat wearing Gorbachev when he welcomed him in snow cold weather in just a plain suit. Psychological warfare takes place all the times in negotiations. Trump has a track record in negotiations. None of the other candidates has any experience in the matter. That overstuffed hardball pl,ayer has been playing with a marshmallow in Obama. He will not have the same success with Trump, because Trump will hand him his comeuppance, I have no doubt about that!
As far as the deportation, Obama’s actions were and are illegal as the courts will soon decide. The laws on the books already call for deportations of illegals. Under Trump they will become illegal aliens, not undocumented immigrants.

‘He thinks he can simply glad-hand a hardball player like Putin and all will be well.’

That’s not what he said. You have more credibility if you report Trump’s words honestly.
