Winning the Iowa primary is akin to being on the front cover of Sports Illustrated.
LOL
I live here in IA, and found that funny.....wolverine fan, actually
actually, a 2-loss team.....Michigan state and stanford.
No, it’s Trump creating a lot of attention, and lots and lots of people being disgusted with him and not wanting him to be their nominee.
ME TOO.. it really says what happened!
Hey Seek and Find, how about every now and then—just every so often—posting one of the many articles on Ted `By-Hook-or-Crook’ Cruz’s slash and burn campaigning methods leading up to, during and following the skarewy Iowa cockus?
Is it because he’s a such a convincing Bible banger that we get this drumbeat of propaganda shilling a guy who ran his family through cynical piety drills on videotape?
You’re getting as bad as GGG and libbylu—like a Trump stalker, know what I mean?
and who were those new people? Over half of the people at our caucus were new registers, claiming that they were independents or libertarians before. Who won our caucus? Rubio.
well said!

Be my guest. If you would like to attack or criticize Cruz, this is a free country and FR is a good forum to do it.
You post, we digest and respond, How’s that?
There are only two candidates I will vote for: Trump or Cruz, but Trump is by far the stronger choice. He has proven he can actually run something in the private sector and has not worked in government most of his life like many of the other candidates including Cruz who is an insider pretending to be an outsider. All politicians are bought and paid for by their corporate paymasters and special interests. We don't need another first term senator in the WH.
We are not going to convince on another to change our preferences. On that we can agree.
Stated well my FRiend!
RE: I can say the same about the many flip-flops of Cruz and his inability to work with others.
OK, let’s talk about that.
Were you in support of Cruz’s shutting down the government over the budget and Obamacare, or do you support the GOP who disliked him for doing that?
Actually he is whining the voters didn’t buy his product.
Like he whined we Cruz rose in the polls
Like he whined about Megyn Kelly
Like he whined about fox tweet
He’s gonna self destruct. He does not take critism well
And this is not logical or factual.
An increase in Rep turnout I would say was caused by revolt against bo.
>> He comes up with an anti-Trump article almost every day on American Thinker <<
Therefore, Trump is innocent of all charges. Welcome to the New World of Trumpistic Reasoning.
I am in favor of using every tool at the disposal of the legislative branch to stop Obama's agenda, including shutting down the government. FYIW it was and has never been a complete shutdown of government since essential services would continue.
The House holds the purse strings. It has been controlled by the Reps since 2010, but the Reps have failed to use that power.
Just stating a fact. Straker is suffering from YDS.
He’s also not mentioning that under 10 thousand came out for Hildabeast and Saunders COMBINED!
Trump’s remark about shooting someone...was in reference to the solid dedication his staff has for him. It was an idiom!
Furthermore, Trump is totally stunned by the level of dishonesty in politics. He’s dealt with sleezebags before, but this is above and beyond what he’s used to even.
If Cruz wins the nomination, as I hope he does, he would do well to learn from Trump — his swagger, his open scorn for political correctness, and his doubling-down rather than apologizing. If he loses the offensive for even a minute, as by refusing to confront socialistic fairness rhetoric, he’ll end-up like Dan Quayle.
>> I highly doubt he is going to sell his hotels, buildings and golf courses at a loss in order to raise money to fund his campaign <<
Yes, and it should be emphasized that it would be absolutely impossible to sell those properties quickly enough for the General Election, unless Trump should do so at “fire sale” prices — which at best might bring something like 30 to 40% of the assessed values.
On the other hand, maybe he could mortgage the properties — but he still wouldn’t get 100% of the fair values. And then, whether he lost or won the election, somebody would need either to pay off the mortgages for him (donors!) or buy the properties at discounted values.
In other words, the whole idea of “self-funding” is such a yuuuge crock that only a super-pitchman like Trump would ever dare to try selling the ridiculous idea to a gullible public.
