But bow-boy is NOT one of US. Trump is and has been since birth. He respects this country and our Constitution. o-king, not so much. Big difference.

And you think Gibbering Jeb is going to be the same or better than the Bush your pinning away for?

I like what Trump is saying but I will still vote for CRUZ, if CRUZ winds up not being on the ballot I will write him in.
If I can’t do that I will vote for JACK (Jack is my old dog, he’s honest and loyal).
CRUZ OR LOSE

Actually I should be more specific.

Whether it's Trump Or Jeb that gets the Republican nomination, I will vote for them.
But only if the right person is chosen for the Vice President.

I don't want to stay home on election day, but will not put someone I don't want next in line by proxy.

I think people are supporting Trump and overlooking some of his weak points. I get that, actually. But it’s good to remind ourselves occasionally that he, like everybody else, isn’t perfect.

Jeb Bush would be a good President.
He'll get my vote in the primary.

And if he gets the Republican nomination for President, I'll vote for him again.

“The Church of Trump has already decided
They don’t care.
Trump could eat babies on the stump.
They won’t care.
Burn down poor neighborhoods for a casino.
They won’t care.”

Anything you have to say about Trump, I don’t care.

“Stories like these, and I’m sure there are hundreds, will destroy Trump in the general.”

Lol. Yeah, just like all the stories that were to destroy Trump in the primaries, and he just grows stronger.

Trump grew up in an era when “urban renewal” was seen as a heroic act for builders. It’s not surprising that he kept that view that also aligned with his business interests.

RE: He made the right decision to get out when he did. Smart business. Are you saying you would have done it differently?

He made the wrong decision the first time, to get into Atlantic City. If he did not do it, he would not have needed to bail in 2007, a mere 7 years later.

So why the need for the eminent domain to take the widow’s home in the first place?

Was that in order to build a highway or a railroad or some vital infrastructure? Nope, it was for casino’s. Hardly vital at all as proven 7 years later.

Novemberslady, you are the first person I've heard of who supports Jeb Bush.

Can you explain why you think a man who holds all of these liberal positions would make a good president? If you like Jeb so much, you must agree with them yourself.

-——————————————————————————————Jim I’m very tired of paying my monthly donation for a rectum to post his poison!

I’m sure that I’m not the only donor feeling this way.

He has zero respect for you and your loyal donors.
