Yes. They are duplicitous. They tell us something to be elected, then go on for the next 6 years enjoying their cocktail parties, graft, and high-minded privilege expectations. Most are no better than the dems. Then they give us Dole, McCain, Romney, and......???Jeb Bush????? They don’t even want to try a Reagan conservative. I think most of the republican oligarchy do not realize what they have done and are doing. Just look at Romney ..........4 million fewer pubes voted than voted for McCain. It will be magnified by Jeb. We have no choice for conservatives.

His “visibility” is harming his Business Interests, not making him more Money.

Any other Candidate out there risking their OWN MONEY for the cause?

It appears Mr. Trump is not entitled to Free Speech according to the GOPe, The Democrats, a majority of his Republican Challengers and the Hyena Media.

Yet somehow, he manages to keep on trucking and he is not giving up any Ground that he has already rolled over.

What does Trump have to do with the Hillary Fix?
If the Hilary fix was in, it was long before Trump came along.

Now, Bernie Sanders is probably the one that you should look to as helping Hillary, certainly not Trump. His Socialist followers would go for Hillary.

Notice how Senator Cruz is supportive of Trump without getting into the weeds? It seems Cruz sees something many here do not. If Donald dropped out, it would be something if he told his Supporters to back Cruz.

He certainly wouldn’t steer them toward Hillary.

Just in case you’ve missed my many posts on the subject, I’m all in for Cruz.

But I’m loving every minute of the Trump fireworks show. I think Cruz is too.

Exactly, if Trump wanted a nomination he would have run against Clinton appealing to:

1. Rank and file union members who are being harmed by immigration.

2. African Americans who are being harmed by immigration.

3. Low information Dims who like to vote for rockstars.

I think he might have swept to the nomination with just that coalition.

and like fools we split our votes and Clinton wins with only 42%


Simple way to avoid that, don’t be a nose-holding fool voting for ¡YEB! to turn the country into North Mexico.

They know exactly what they are doing. They are deliberately denying the American citizens the opportunity to elect a President who WOULD enforce the laws and secure the border.
We have not had anything but amnesty candidates since the last amnesty.
Yeah, I know Romney sounded like he wasn’t but he was lying. Right after his graciously losing to Obama he came out for Rubberio’s Gang bill.

From a man named Spooner?!

LOL. Oh, I am proud as long as it makes people who support Trump think.

Thanks for your concern, though.

Do real conservatives get behind a 5 fold increase in the number of H-1B visas?

If they go to highly qualified individuals in fields such as IT, absolutely. We need them, we don't have them, and if we don't import them we'll just be competing against them.

Unfortunately, the end result of H1B is usually to replace worthless $30/hr US IT workers with worthless $15/hr foreign workers.

Trump is lambasting everyone, Democrat and Republican, except my guy Cruz.

I don’t thing that even a Scorpion would support Hitlery, especially since that same Scorpion is repeatedly attacking her Competency.

I guess we will all find out in due time. I don’t see a lot of Freepers throwing their Money and Support behind Trump, but they do appreciate his ability to get things in front of the American People unlike any other Candidate.

Trump is a white male.

Bloomberg didn’t run as a dem for Mayor of NY cause he didn’t want to navigate the racial minefield of the rat primary where a White guy like DeBlasio needed to be a total Stalinist and use his Black wife and son with an Afro as campaign props to overcome the curse of his pale skin and come out on top, so he just bought the GOP nod.

I think Cruz has the same anti American attitude yo have. So unfortunately I cannot vote for him.
