What is this? A little backtracking, mea-culpa, from the Lowery crowd? After that nasty, nasty pre-IA publication (POS) they put out? Their unsubscribes must have gone thru the roof! (as well they should have).

No, he is not. They agree on a range of issues, from 0bama's stimulus and TARP to defunding Planned Parenthood to taxing the wealthy to government-run healthcare to amnesty, and many others.

True.

But ain’t it funny that many Dems - faced with the prospect of Bernie or Hillary - are crossing over to support Trump?

And that’s Trump’s real strength. Appealing to large numbers of Americans - both Republican and Democrat; liberal and conservative.

It’s interesting that this comes from Stephen Moore, who is associated with two organizations Trump openly hates: the Club for Growth and Americans for Prosperity.

I think too many people are hung up on a label. We need to nominate the candidate who has the best ideas of now to fix our broken country and who can actually get elected.

Trump is conservative enough.

+1 !

Isn’t this election great?
Remember the last 2 primaries where we had to hold our noses to vote for people like McCain?
Now we have the choice between Donald and Ted.
And the dems are stuck choosing between an old Clinton and an avowed socialist nut?
Ah the karma...
I’m happy I tell you! Trump!

Trump is a political force of nature and, though not unstoppable, is in a commanding position to win the GOP nomination.

Maybe, but the field continues to winnow and there seems to be an upper limit to the Trump support. And he is nobody's second choice, so it's not likely to increase much, if at all.

Cruz tends to be most people's second choice and Rubio next.

I just hope they don't wind up playing Gingrich and Santorum to Trump's Romney. I've said before that I can still hear Newt complaining, "once again, Senator Santorum and I split two-thirds of the vote..." while conceding another state to Romney.

If it narrows down to a one-on-one, Trump could have a problem. He needs to keep the non-Trump vote as divided as possible.

What really bothers me is that all of Ted’s foreign policy advisers are members of the CFR - (Council on Foreign Relations) They are globalists and one world government lovers. Goldman “Sachs also supports Cruz and Hillary. That should give people pause for concern.

How do you know Trump has a dictator spirit? Do you have some insider info the rest of us do not? If so, please share because all I see is a successful businessman who could possibly not have gotten where he is by being a dictator (unless he is an absolute genius and knows everything.)

Because Trump has utterly changed the direction of this campaign. If there was no Trump, we would be seeing a rehash of the 2012 primaries — just substitute Jeb for Mittens, and the campaign issues would center around just how much amnesty do we extend, a lot, or a whole lot; and a lot of nonsense such as global warming, war on women, etc. Trump has changed all of that and focused attention on the real issues, the massive illegal invasion, terrorism, American jobs being exported overseas, etc. It is too bad you are too blind to see these things and give the man credit where credit is due.

Fine excerpt from the end of the short article:

In February 1980 the Republican establishment said that a staunch conservative Hollywood actor could never be president and he won two landslide elections. Trump isn't Reagan - but he's one of the most talented retail politicians in modern times. For nine months everyone has been underestimating this man....

What is so surprising to me is that this is written by Stephen Moore...isn't he the guy who used to head up the "Club For Growth"--the same one that Trump had a public feud with a few months back?

Yes there are a lot of Democrats who are not communists. Their party has been hijacked by the Communists just like the Republican party has been hijacked by the free traitor open borders progressive RINO’s. We are all in the same boat actually.

hahah. Nice try but the pubbies with gladly unite with the dems to impeach DT. I posted that here months ago. Think about it. They put up with Bambi because he was black and the GOPE were afraid to do anything to oppose Bambi. There would be no fear of impeaching DT,but much joy.

"Poor Teddy Bare! Is inpajamas still living livinginmommy'sbasement? Suck it up." I don't need to debase you, you have already done it. Your own words and actions are a picture of who you people are, and soon you will pay the price of fools.
