I got this in the mail this morning:

there is a big segment of Americans that are so pissed at the government, they’d vote for Jimmie J J Walker just so he could say “DY-NO-MITE!” instead of the usual pablum that issues from our political folks.

LOL! I wish FR had a "like" button.

I suspect only Trump can end the Trump campaign in some sort of the Donald being the Donald.

Exactly. Trump doesn't play to lose. He's no idiot, either. When (and if) the undeniable writing is on the wall that he has no chance, he'll drop out on his own terms.

As of now, he's winning.

The "real contenders" boil down to five candidates: former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Ohio Gov. John Kasich, said Sabato.
Kinda surprised he included Senator Cruz.

like in 2012, polls and predictions mean nothing. What matters is the fraudulent counting of votes. Just like Soros said.

We must make sure Trump’s the one to hand the GOP Insiders their pink slips—and remind them to see the humor.

CNN said the other day that the conservatives are against Trump and fighting him because they believe Bush and others like him are conservative.

I agree with the media in part, Trump is not a conservative, in the traditional sense. He is a weapon to take out the establishment political class. He will bring down destruction and nobody knows where it will stop. What the media fails to apprehend is that the nation now, in large part, believes removing the establishment-cancer is necessary to recovery and they are wiling to do radical surgery.

What the media calls conservative, I call the eunuch establishment and RINO enablers of the liberal agenda. What I call conservative the media calls right-wing and fringe. I am an advocate of Cruz because I have seen him fight the establishment his whole career, know that his positions do not evolve because they are based on unchanging principles and IMO is the best man to govern, but I certainly resonate with the contempt that the nation feels for the Rino elites and the democrat sociopaths.

"SE Cupp wrote an article today"

From her article---->A surprising number of Democrats weighed in, including one who said:

"I support Bernie Sanders, but if he doesn't make it past the primaries, then Trump it is. Trump is the only other who isn't bought."

THIS is why Trump is causing the GOPe and the DNC to load up their trousers.

RE Cheerio's post #15:

Impressive post. Thank you.

Ditto.

Romney lost because so many imaginary, illegal, and dead "Americans" voted for Obama. In an honest count, I'm afraid Romney won.

My vote went third party. Voting for Romney was as nuts as voting for Obama. The only thing worse than Obama, would have been a leftist "Republican" like Romney getting a popular mandate, as if his kind of "Republican" wasn't soundly rejected (all those votes "against" Obama would be wisps of steam that became exactly what they were -- solid APPROVAL of Romney's brand of "Republican," which would be a bigger death knell to America than Obama).

As it was, enough American conservatives feared/respected God more than they feared Obama, declined to vote for evil, and Romney lost solidly where in an honest contest, he'd have won, but by very small margin. See my tagline.

but nobody really knows how the Donald will govern.

We know how the GOPe governs.

You give us the Senate and we will stop Obamacare and Executive Amnesty.

Yet these clowns all still have their jobs. In fairness some of these people are good guys, they just watched too much FOX News.

They must know something we don’t know. The elections are, therefore, rigged.

We know how the GOPe governs.

And that is why the Donald is popular. I believe there are better choices namely Cruz. I empathize with the burn down the traitorous GOPe scum to the ground mentality, along with the lobbyists and the bureaucracy and corrupted judges. Let those fires burn hot that destroy the tyrants and usurpers. But in our zeal we err when we bring out the guillotine without first committing to the principles of governance that protects liberty. I fear that the country has not yet truly known the maniacal tyrant that the Donald could easily become. When it is all about him, it is not all about what is best for you, the nation, liberty or your progeny. I speak only for myself, but I do not want a powerful Cesar, I want a magistrate of the LORD who is rooted in the law of liberty. The Donald is doing the Lord's work taking out the GOPe, but when it comes to occupying 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Ted Cruz is the man most philosophically rooted, most able to persuade the public, most likely to rule in the fear of the Lord and most committed to follow through after the votes are counted.
