Typecast or not afterward, He did a fantastic portrayal of Jethro.

Kind of hope his casino eventually takes off.

"Because Cruz might have done half as well without an awesome ground game."

Prove it.

“It is true that Mrs. Bill starts out with at least 230 solid electoral votes, including probably NH and VA.”

She starts with zero.

Only Gope types award these people states off the bat.

Trump managed to beat 16 people on a shoestring budget without their sophisticated ground game.

Ideas matter, personality matters and values matter.

And it helped Trump a lot of Republicans liked him on all counts.

He has a much tougher sell winning over a general electorate.

Folks, this isn’t about electing a President, it’s about electing a LEADER.
Western Civilization MUST have someone lead the fight against Political Correctness.
The very election of someone as unconventional as Trump is as or more important than anything he might do after becoming President.

A Trump win spells the death of Poltical Correctness, a Clinton win spells the death of America....it’s really that damned simple and it saddens me to think that so called-Conservatives can’t see the importance of that beyond their own personal hatred.

“Kind of hope his casino eventually takes off.”

Rats, I’ve changed my mind about that.

Knew about the second, but not the first:

Two of Baer’s other relationships ended disastrously. In 1970, Max assaulted his then-girlfriend, Victoria Principal of Dallas fame. 35 years later, he told the New York Daily News that he had no regrets about hitting her because “she deserved it.” He admitted to the Daily News that he slapped the Dallas star on Sunset Blvd. Displaying no remorse, Baer said that he was arrested but that charges were not pressed.

On January 24, 2008, Baer’s girlfriend, Chere Rhodes, committed suicide at his Lake Tahoe home. The 30 year-old Penthouse model shot herself in the chest and died three days later. Police said no foul play was suspected and a handwritten suicide was found.

Hillary is Obama with t!ts....
We barely survived 8 years of the muslim traitor and now butt-hurt GOP’ers are willing to let the country die.....for the record, I love Ted Cruz but I’m dealing with how the world is, not how I would like it to be.

What are you, 10?

We’re in the midst of watching America collapse and we need the best ground game in history and you say “prove it”?

we’re in a lot of trouble if Trump’s advisers think like you.

Prove it. That takes the prize.

God has strange ways....It would not be the first time he used a non-conventional Christian/non-Christian to do his bidding.....
Donald Trump might not be a Christian, but he would do more for religious freedoms than Bush did or Cruz COULD do because he would DESTROY the Political Correctness cancer that is killing the country...

Bottome line: America dies if Hillary wins.

We’re gonna have to help him out. The 10s of millions who are voting for him.

I dont blame him for not wanting to spend his own money on this election.

But money he needs, because the creature will have a BILLION dollars behind her.

Agree. Diedrich Bader gave it a good try but just couldn’t fill his shoes in the movie.

Jeff Roe collected how many millions from the Cruz campaign?

I only ask as Trump won the nomination with 45 million. Just curious how much the guy’s advice cost those who contributed to Cruz, myself included.
