Could Trump actually win?
The Telegraph ^ | Thursday, July 30, 2015

Posted on 07/30/2015 5:01:42 AM PDT by Cringing Negativism Network

The American political class has failed the country and should be fired. That is the clearest mes­sage from the summer surge of Bernie Sanders and the remark­able rise of Donald Trump.

I don’t know.

There are a (heck) of a lot of Palin supporters around.

And a lot of them, are not natural Trump supporters. Trump attracts women. Palin attracts men.

They both attract Republicans, as well as working democrats.

It would be a very strong ticket, in my view.

Plain is still too polarizing for VP, imo. Trump needs her in Dept of Energy. She makes her mark, then she can do anything from there.

Well ok, the website has some sort of sign-up which I myself refuse to do. But it seems like a good headline and a good first paragraph, so I'll go ahead with posting this anyway.

FYI

The Nashua Telegraph is a Libtard newspaper. Even when signing up was free, I stopped reading it.

I love Ted Cruz, but agree with you. I believe his talents lie in the attorney area and are very much needed.

I wouldn’t put it past the RNC to actually throw the election to the democratic candidate if Trump was to win the nomination. It would be a bigger defeat for the RNC than the democrats. Time will tell.

That poll number with Trump leading all candidates in Hispanic favorability warmed my heart greatly.

Another moronic GOPe meme destroyed before their very eyes.

Like I said, I don't trust Trump, he's not my #1 candidate, but so far he's saying almost all of the right things and he's doing wonderful things for this race.

Trump is even making inroads with the African-American community. Turns out a lot of them want jobs and agree with him about sealing the border. Har!

If Palin really cared, she would have run for Senate in her own state.

She's a media girl. That's what she was and will always be.

Oh I agree. But rule thirteen was built to prevent someone like Trump from hindering the insider process. Face it...various people are trying to rig up the process where Walker might win two or three of the first five primaries...then realities come into play and Bush surges forward. The debates are the only place where the cards might be reshuffled and ranking might change.

The whole strategy of Cruz might be to draw X amount of votes away from someone, and Cruz gets the attorney general job, and later gets nominated for the Supreme Court. If you look forward over the next eight years...at least four justices will retire by 2024 (end of the Republican administration). It wouldn’t surprise me if we see two of the replacements go by and by 2020...after four years as Attorney General, Cruz gets the nod and steps over to the court into the third slot to come open.

Cruz needs to ditch his position on H-1B. But I don’t think he can because he is a self professed “Free Trader”.

Can’t disagree with that observation.

It will be an unusual race, that is for certain.

I hate to rain on Trump’s parade, but the latest polling has him losing to Bernie Sanders 45-37 in a fall matchup.

I believe he could actually win. While he is not my first choice, he might be second.

Don’t worry about raining on Trump’s parade. I’m sure he is not all that concerned with what you have to say.

One thing that Trump has “going for” himself, is that he is already a celebrity in the sense that his handlers have tried to shape 0bama as a celebrity.

Yes. Not without great difficulties, but yes. And not without some very serious strategizing on his part, but yes.

And it wouldn’t hurt for him to read some FR daily. There’s some really good advice here. Any Trump friends reading this? Please pass it on.
