Regardless of where you stand on David Duke, here’s what the man himself says about endorsing Donald Trump.

The GOPe and the media have lied to us again.

Apparently they are in full panic. The new polls out from Survey Monkey have Trump winning in all states but TX, where Cruz is ahead, but within the MOE. States surveyed AL, AR, GA, OK, TN, VA in addition to the aforementioned TX.

Neither the media nor the GOPe can be trusted. The GOPe just want to keep their cushy government jobs. They are not interested in our country or her citizens.

The media makes it plain that they are liberal and will spew the liberal mush.

We know they are going to lie to us. But - they didn't say “I don't know who David Duke is.” And “I don't know anything about these hate groups.” Just a couple of days after saying “I disavow David Duke.”
Either Trump is lying or Trump has a medical/mental issue that voters should know about so they can make an informed choice.

We also need to know what he said to the NYT. If he doesn't ask them, no, demand that they release the transcripts if not the tapes, we should all assume it's true that he has no plan to actually build a wall and deport illegals.

Trump isn't my guy. That's no secret. I do not want a presidential candidate who became popular calling other people “Nasty Liars” while speaking out of both sides of his mouth. That guarantees a loss in November.

Shouting la la la and sticking your fingers in your ears will only work for so long.

Some more good news is that it appears Trump has bypassed Cruz in Arkansas in the latest polls. GO TRUMP GO

Exactly right. The GOPe, Chamber of Commerce and their K-Street lobbyist pals do NOT care about the country or who occupies the White House, as long as the gravy train continues.

I mean, we refer to the “Uniparty” somewhat as a joke but in reality, it doens’t matter to these people if the President has an R or D after his name, because either way they win. Jeb! was fully, completely, 100% vetted, supported, and OWNED by the GOPe, so their grand plan is already in disarry, thanks to Donald Trump. After tomorrow, the panic will be even higher with the fear that their good thing is about to end. How far they will do, nobody knows because this is uncharted territory.

What’s the source of this allegation? Do you have a link for this?

“...TX, where Cruz is ahead, but within the MOE.”

Ouch!

Ted should be glad that Super Tuesday is tomorrow. Another few days, and Trump would have overtaken him. It would have been humiliating to lose his home state to Trump, even by a little bit.

Looks like the Cruzers rallied back up to 25% yesterday.

Trump down to just 73%.

Trump’s momentum is a sight to behold. He is just killing it.

Sad to see a conservative, and a Freeper at that, be so desperate to tear down the clear favorite of the Republican electorate, that he would go all breathless and giddy over a mere rumor about him from the New York Times.

Might be a good thing to wait and see if this isn’t just another typical lib media trick, like they always play on Republican front runners.

Giddy? No. I'm picturing how this will play out later on.

Yes, I'm a constitutional conservative that believes in the rule of law. I'm not into cult of personality types who tell people one thing one day and something else on another based on what he thinks they want to hear.

A persons record is the only indicator of what direction we can expect them to go. That's why I support Cruz.

If Trump does win, I hope we get the trump you think he is and not the one his history shows him to be.

All the media was pounding on Trump yesterday but saying he was way ahead. Our they punking us?

CNN even had a link tittle NASCAR endorses Trump, when you followed the link it took you to the KKK manufactured gotcha videos.

“All the media was pounding on Trump yesterday but saying he was way ahead. Our they punking us?”

I think it’s simple. The media is part and parcel of the ruling order of elites who see Trump as their mortal enemy. Unfortunately for them, they have to report on the fact that he’s getting closer and closer to stomping them into the ground.

And the people cheer wildly.
