He cannot. His jig is up. You can only fake it so long.

“Trump needs to move beyond poll numbers. He needs to change the game. again.”

Trump has changed his game in the past week or so by getting into more particulars on some issues. That’s most likely what will start his downslide in the polls. Trump, in my estimation, is the only candidate who can change the current state of this nation. Cruz is great and should be a part of the cabinet, but he’s simply not a fighter. He takes advantage of trends set by Trump and that’s to his favor.

However, when Donald Trump gets into the nitty gritty of foreign policy and immigration; he will leave the dumbed down, ill informed voters grumbling. When he gets beyond “throw them all out”, they will start saying he’s flip flopping instead of trying to tell the bare truth about what has to be done. You can already hear them mumbling about HB1 visas and how they should be abolished or something to that effect; when that action would make no sense whatsoever. With the current welfare system making it possible for our dumb to survive, thrive and multiply, it stands to reason that the cream of the crop of the world’s IQs should be kept here in America.

But that’s way beyond the scope of the attention of the average tv indoctrinated, social media dependent, hollywood slurping voter. So be careful what you wish for. I’ve no doubt that Trump, with his business savy and toughness, can get the job done. But he has to get the job first and that’s up to the American voter. Pray that we all can realize what lies in the balance here.

Ben Carson's debate debacle was his own fault ... he was awful ...


Asked if he was associated with the Harlic (sp) nutrition supplememt, Ben carson said the question was an example of media propaganda ...

... and then INCREDIBLY said that he had given two (paid) speeches for the Harlic (sp) company.


I'm sorry. But where I come from taking money from a company in exchange for paid speeches is "indeed" being associated with the company.


Worse still, Ben Carson ended that line of debate questioning with a shit-eating smile that appeared that he didn't give a damn about being truthful.

Polls rigged to show Trump is finished! Now they will pick Rubio as the new “Leader of the pack” so that a discouraged Tump will pull out and be gone. He will change tactics—use new forums to get his message out their. How about reforming the Military? rebuilding the Navy? We need a presidental yacht! Lets map out that Mexican Wall! Show exactly Trump will bring in Jobs?

After last night you are going to see Carson fading. He’s not a good candidate on the issues. He’s just a nice guy who people tend to like. But now things are getting more serious. This GOP race is quickly morphing into a two man finish. Trump and Cruz.

The media tends to selectively ignore his massive crowds. He’s an idea whose time has come and they don’t want that idea catching on.

Trump’s supporters are passionate about him. They are not going anywhere. They will stick to him like white on rice.

I saw that smirk and immediately thought that he was lying.

Trump will be the Republican nominee. New Yorker from Queens to become next President of the United States is a HUGE story.

Trump will not be going 3rd party because he will be on the Republican Ticket for President of the United States with Ted Cruz as his running mate.

Trump will win New York electoral votes in the general election. It's going to be an early victory for Republicans come next November 2016, mainly because Native Son Trump will win New York electoral votes over Carpet Bagger Hillary.

If we have to have a NY Democrat for President, then by all means let it be Trump.

Dang, to me you are comparing apples to oranges. Trump has been the GOP frontrunner from day one. Trump is no Perot FRiend. He has been taking names and kicking asses from the beginning. Perot never faced 16 contenders much less stomped their butts. ALL OF THEM!

Cruz and Trump are emasculating most all of the rest of the field.

Trump is conservative. He will be the Republican Nominee and he will win New York and most likely win New Jersey in the general election.

This is a game changer and a new era in politics. The new President of the United States of America will likely be announced early on Tuesday, November 8, 2016 because Trump will win New York. The RNC will eventually get on board.

The liberal media will be disappointed that the voters are ready for a strong leader like Trump, but they also respect Trump. Trump isn’t afraid to take any interview and they respect him for that. Even though they try to get rid of him for Hillary’s sake, they still respect him more than her because Trump is fearless. The admire his courage and like him on a personal level.

Thanks. I won't back off the PSAs until I am told (by Jim and company) that I need to back off. Too many FReeloaders pretending to have conservative values while living a leech lifestyle.
