What??? It's already minutes into the debate and Trump is not yet winning the Drudge online poll! How can this be? Surely Trumpsters are sitting at the ready to weigh in on Trump. Where is this 100% accurate, scientific poll? He's usually winning by now.
What’s with all the treats to anyone who doesn’t bend over like you lemmings? Next thing we know M13 will be announcing For Trump.
Oopps. Note to self, read all the way to the end before clicking reply.
Ron Paul bots will give Trumpbots a run for the money /s
And proved your vast intellect with childish snark.
How liberal of you.
But the great thing is that Trump’s tweets, whether you like him or not, are worth following. I’ve watched elections since elementary school and remember Kennedy/Nixon. I’ve always internalized the mistakes of Republicans and winced at the media criticisms. I am glad, that later in life, I can thoroughly enjoy this. It’s serious but the entertainment value, which I was way too serious to ever see before, is there as well as the no-holds-barred addressing of serious issues which face us. I never understand the meaning of “political theatre” before.
I’m not going to apologize for recognizing the fact that Trump voters have a great deal to learn about life, reality, government, the military, and probably everything else under the sun.
57,000 watching the Trump event on RightSide’s Youtube channel alone.
Yup...turds in the punch bowl every one.
Or, we're just sick of garbage lawyer/politicians lying to our faces and stabbing us in the back to go to that well again.
But, I guess you wouldn't have considered that angle, have you?
*I went to Nickelodeon, or a similar channel targeted to childlike intellects*
meet:
*...your vast intellect with childish snark.

It's snarkalicious!
That is why I like Trump.
Not on the substance, but on the principle of "who says the mediots are the gatekeepers?"
Who is Megyn Kelly to "Change the Race" as she tweeted earlier this week? Who is Fox News, or any of the other mediots to have any direct effect on the outcome? Why do we as citizens and voters allow this incestuous cabal of libtards decide who is an acceptable candidate, what is an acceptable position on immigration, taxes, welfare, race, etc., etc., etc.. They were trying to ambush Trump with the muslim broad, an illegal, and some other democRAT, and he's expected to just show up and take it?
If Trump wins... fine. If Trump loses...fine. Let him sink or swim based on the merits of his argument. I am thinking further down the road, than just these primaries, but for the general election, and even further down the road for future elections.
If Trump can slay the dragon of the leftard mediots dictating the terms of the debate (format, subjects, and rules), then the public and the nation as a whole will be the better served. Let them be reporters, observers, not the drivers of the agenda as they are now.
That's my problem overall with this whole fiasco. In a sane world, Trump would have never gotten off the ground. But he's gained traction, and I would suggest unstoppable momentum exactly because he's willing to go where others fear to tread. Namely, challenging the supremacy of the mediots.
To get back on Kelly for a moment, if she was so smart why isn't she practicing law, instead of being a "personality". On the same side of that it also applies to Ann Coulter.
So I'm kind of enjoying watching Trump do the things he's doing and watching to see how it plays out.
I'm going to assume that you're a Cruz guy, which is fine. I like Cruz too. Imagine what Cruz can do if he follows the Trump playbook in dealing with the mediots in the general election.
If Trump can move forward without going through the media gatekeepers, or in spite of them, imagine how that changes the rules for the next election. Granted, the mediots will make more of an effort in the coming years to consolidate their power to prevent what Trump has done, from happening to them again. On the other side of that is, what if they can't.
Just some things to think about.
Nice try.
It’s getting scary now. NO DRUDGE POLL YET!
LOL!
I await your words of wisdom to teach me the errors of my ways....
Poll is up and running.
Do you support partial-birth abortion?
Do you support the Clinton Foundation?
Do you support federal land grabs from private individuals?
Do you support universal socialist health care?
Do you support Chuck Schumer’s PAC to gain Senate majority?
If you said yes to *all* of these, then you might me a Trump supporter!
So Trump is going to easily roll to another poll victory. He's already up to 57%.
I went there just now and the server is inundated. Could not get my vote for Trump to tally.
