Hopefully Trump will be. We need a strong leader this time. We need someone who will take action. We DO NOT need another policy wonk. We just had a Senator for 8 years. Let’s take a break and get a genuine worker in the Presidency. Once Trump is done fixing our country then Cruz might be able to handle the job. Trump 2016!!!!!!! We must do it.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Can Trump's support collapse? Yes. As his supporters take a closer look at his antics on the campaign trail, many will ultimately conclude prudence demands an electable conservative, not a bombastic contrarian.

Political cargo-cultism.

I could live with that !

Cruz or Trump 2016

Though Cruz is my choice, it’s rather hasty to even remotely venture to say who will be the nominee. We haven’t even had the first vote yet.

I have seen this type of thing written several different ways for months. And today, it is still BS.

[VanDeKoik]

Quick! Did this person offer the next Powerball numbers too?

[catfish1957]

Not me ......either Cruz or the most conservative 3rd party candidate.

Trump can burn in hell

Currently at 35%, Trump has too many negatives to go much higher, but he can go lower.

Really?

This is just another disguised piece on Trump’s “ceiling”. To believe any of this article you’d have to agree that Trump maxed out at 35% but that’s already yesterday’s news. Trump’s currently ranges 39% to 42%.

Yogi also said, “the future ain’t what it used to be.”

[Kaslin]

Who says he will be a strong leader? Having a big mouth does not make one a strong leader.

Take a look at the current resident of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. If he were a leader he could get what he wanted without having to use his phone and his pen and acting like a king or worse an emperor

[Kaslin]

That is true

This is a must watch;

Phyllis Schlafly is amazing. Some great Freeper turned me on to the The Barry Goldwater 1964 Campaign 50th Anniversary Forum. We are watching history repeat itself.

If you have 9 minutes watch from 6:10- 15:39 of this video with Schlafly describing how the establishment of the Republican Party takes out grassroots candidates. This is really timely...

There is an article posted calling Trump a bigot and racist, there are FR members calling Trump and his supporters fascists. (Yes that happened here on FR.)

Contrast that with this;

Phyllis Schlafly Makes the Case for President Trump: "Only Hope to Defeat the Kingmakers" http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3382220/posts

Phyllis Schlafly Makes the Case for President Trump: "Only Hope to Defeat the Kingmakers" http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3382132/posts

Let me see, agree with illogical and irrational rabid anit- Trump "conservatives", even here on FR, or agree with Phyllis Schlafly. Hmmmm. That is a tough decision.

Like the thread "Trump says NK leader amazing". No he didn't, Trump said his ability to execute a takeover at such a young age is amazing. Trump said the guy is a maniac. So why are so called "conservatives" mis-representing what Trump said?? Is it a mistake because they can't follow simple conversation? Or is it deliberate?? Either one is a logical fatal flaw.

Yogi Berra said, "It's tough to make predictions, especially about the future."

Yogi Berra knew that there are people who upon seeing the results of something that occurred but not knowing the event occurred will claim that something else will have happened in the past thinking it will be the future.

It seems most such people visit national political talk shows on Sunday mornings and write columns. Methinks Mr. Armstrong may be one of those people.

[hemogoblin]

Describing Trump with words like “screwball” and “antics” reveals that this writer does not understand Trump or his appeal. Trump has a stronger resume with America than any other candidate, by a mile.

[House Atreides]

I could live with that !

Cruz or Trump 2016
********************************
I used to be like that...but Trump has worn out any support I had for him...I’m pretty certain at this point that he is NOT a constitutional conservative but is merely an opportunist.

So, for me, it’s now Cruz 2016 ...ONLY.

[JoSixChip]

Really, that’s the ad your going with?

“Sure Cruz sucks, but he doesn’t suck as bad as the other Senators”?

LOL, and I never use LOL!

Plus those unwilling to admit their preference to a pollster.
