There are two important points.

1) Demographics— I heard Rush the other day who said Trump was appealing to voters across a lot of demographic sectors which is why the democrats are terrified of him.

2) Trump has always, always said that in making deals he likes to get the lion’s share of the money. Trump and his consiglieri Michael Cohen know there is a billion bucks at RNC central he can get his mitts on. There is no doubt that he is setting his sights on that billion or more as part of the negotiations of surrender of the RNC to Trump. With the nomination the donors are going to throw money at the RNC in hopes of getting a crumb from Trump. The billion will be there and probably 2 billion for Trump to carpet bomb Hillary.

Yes....it's all about the "connecting with people" thing!

La Guardia had it, so did Teddy Roosevelt. Is it a NYC thing? Maybe, maybe not.

Remember the political old saw about who do you want to have a beer/coffee/whatever with? Trump has that and in spades !

Those poor “donors” — all that money and no one to buy.

While the establishment frets over “Plan A”, let me advise them to admit defeat.

They are up against a man who cannot be bought.

All of the candidates are streetwalkers and the moneybags “Establishment” are “Johns” elbowing for position.

Rove was on MSNBC-DC this morning hinting at just this.

He is on a major rehab mission of his own brand.

seems jbush is s.o.l.

“They would prefer Hillary.”

And it makes one wonder at what sort of darkness is rotting their very souls.

Herself is not an unknown quantity. There have been plenty of exposures of the inner workings, and a sufficient number of times when what was behind the curtain was revealed in all its nakedness, so an objective assessment of the very unfitness of Herself leaves nothing up for debate.

Herself is a twisted and badly damaged specimen, no way capable of running a PTA meeting, let alone a nation. Disingenuous to the extreme, Herself cannot focus for more than moments on what it REALLY takes to keep the ducks in a row, so to speak. But Herself is great at creating stampedes, and the resulting chaos, then defying anybody to pick up after her.

Pandaemonium is defined as “turning all the devils loose”. If Hell had a capital, it would the Second Clinton Regime.

From your finger tips to God’s ears. There can be no future plans...the GOPe has no idea what letter follows B.

The forecast is tsunami —’something like you ain’t never seen before’

GO TRUMP! GO CRUZ!~ YOU WIN OR WE LOSE!!

From the very start Donald Trump still appears to appeal to Americans who are exhausted pulling for an American government that tolerates, yes, tolerates the United States Constitution. Senator Cruz swears by that document and Trump stands by it thus far. Obama and his administration have abused the Constitution and trampled any law they don't like. Rice, Clinton, the entire State Department, some of the military and of course his cabinet lie for him and the media is totally complicit in that effort...all shoring up a man who hates this country and is successfully fundamentally changing the way we live starting with security.

Marco Rubio is governed by a PAC/the Establishment a mirror image of Jeb...that is all anyone needs to know.

Just heard Obama's administration paid $43 million$$ for a gas station $7 million (?) to train five Afghani soldiers...!!!!! Sweet Haysus! Who is getting the pay offs...cronies of the Obama's and certain Imans....
