The Donald is a Crony Capitalist. He’s been buying politicans all his adult life. Nothing conservative about that.

Do you have anything intelligent to add to the conversation?

“Nothing conservative about that.”

You try owning and running a large real estate development company in NYC or any other large northeast city without lining their pockets,

You wouldn’t last a year before you were begging them to take you money.

I can’t find any information about Mercer owning Breitbart, the only thing I can find is that he is a major investor but Breitbart won’t share the percentage as they claim this is private info.

Is there really any source that Mercer owns Breitbart?

I don’t know, if you look at my reply history on many of my posts, this is the exact poll everyone was using to slap down my posts / comments with the exact filters that this article was using.

That being said, I expect Trump to surge back. If you look at previous polling, when ever he said something stupid he took a hit but actually recovered over a 3-4 week period.

I will say one thing about Trump, he takes a licking but keeps on ticking.

I did not think this poll would be posted on FR as was posted for months in breaking news when Trump was leading and FR has become all trump/all cruz is a pervert and liar. Such disgusting things posted about Cruz with no basis in fact but on innuendo by trump supporters on far out blogs. Trump will never improve his support with women, I expect it will drop farther. It does not matter how many posts of this woman or that. Trump’s mouth has taken him out.

Mercer gives money to many conservative causes including Breitbart. And he's also an example of a billionaire who doesn't give money to Democrats unlike Trump..

I assume we can expect to see this trumpeter zotted for this comment as earlier FReepers were? Looking at the posting history should provide ample additional evidence.

I’ve seen him state as much myself but don’t know if anyone has been zotted yet.
I can’t vote for either of them myself and will either vote Trump or write him in. Only difference is that if they screw Trump at a brokered convention I’ll leave all down ballot races blank. My write in will be my protest vote of a corrupt system that will have once again given voters the middle finger. But, this is all hypothetical right now as Trump will get 1237 or damn close. Will they change rules to cheat?? I still think Trump can win third party if he gets on every ballot which would be hard but he’ll continue to dominate any three way race.

Cruz is a really bad guy that is completely unlikable and lies more than he tells the truth. The Anti Constitutional scholar had a shot with most of us until he told us to STFU And sided with Soros and BLM over hard working Americans trying to attend a rally. And all that was before he became the establishment butt boy for their nefarious purposes.
I started out this primary season with only one candidate out of 17... Ted Cruz.
Now, I couldn’t vote for him if someone paid me. Doesn’t matter anyway as there’s no way they will vote for him on subsequent ballots. He’s going to get screwed so fast it will make your head spin and then you can decide if you feel the same way about supporting Ryan and Kasick.
The deck is stacked against both of our much less than perfect candidates and we’re all going to get screwed.. Mark my words, we’ll all be in the same camp soon.

Now you’re quoting Kasich/Kucinich against Cruz?

I take everything from a late 2015 or 2016 sign-on with a huge grain of salt since people like Roger Stone like to seed sites like this with trolls to disrupt and try to sway people to Trump.

I’m a disabled veteran, a shut-in. No, I doubt if my fundraising is going to get me a “position” in a Cruz administration. That wasn’t the point. Although Under Secretary of State for Cocktail Parties would be nice.

Yep, it is. He has been drawing bigger crowds than Trump lately, particularly last night.

This is the poll that the Trump Davidians have been posting here on a regular basis to show how unbeatable the Donald was, and the one that he kept touting as proof of his...well, that was the main thing he gave in the debates as his qualifications (that he was leading in the polls, particularly this one).

After all these months of showing us this poll over and over, suddenly it’s no good? Trump was right, he could shoot someone in the middle of the street and his followers would remain members of the cult.

Cruz is a great guy, the most likable of the candidates by far, and to those that love the truth, it is clear that he has told no lies.

He is also the sole non-establishment candidate remaining in the field.

Go Cruz - America’s only chance.
