There is no hurry, but there is a caucus on Feb. 1.
Trump is in a hurry to steamroller any opposition, because polls tell him if it comes down to a 2 man race between him and Cruz, he loses.
As a matter of fact I think a 2 man race of Trump against almost anyone, he loses.
Trump vs Sanders vs Jim Webb might be an interesting 3 man race in November. Webb could actually win.
Hehehe...there is no hurry. There’s a primary schedule and it will be what it is.
The people voting will decide and the first to get 1,236 delegates required to win, will be when we know.
A lot of people think that if Trump wins Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina, that he will be a shoe in.
This is not so.
Those states are all proportional, so even if he gets 40% of them and others get 20% or so, he will not have that commanding of a lead.
He would have momentum...but that can change.
It will be when we start having the winner take all primaries that things will start to really happen.
After Super Tuesday we will have a better picture.
Let’s have the election tomorrow.
HUH? “Give TRUMP time to grow”?
Grow what? His lead?
Maybe Cruz should have stepped it up seven or eight months ago, like TRUMP did.
The longer spent thrashing out between these candidates the longer the time the Democrats get a free ride and the shorter the time Trump will have to crush Hillery. Cruz has ben on center state since he was elected in 202. We kno and can track his voting record and a zillion you tube views on him. We don’t need any more time to choose. Trump has maintined his lead throughout the country since he got in the race. They have thrown the kitchen sink at him and he has made them wash the dishes. No reason to lolly gag any longer. Get on with the ral battle. Smash Hillery AND the Commie dreamer.
“I want to flesh out these two candidates. I think Americans deserve it.”
Hear, hear. I do too. I’m leaning to Cruz, but could be talked toward Trump if he stays on (maybe gets back on) the straight and narrow. It’ll be interesting to see if Trump sticks to his (and our conservative) principals, or becomes everything to everyone, which will alert me to a problem, as I don’t like political panderers. Only time will tell, and I’m not under the gun like Iowa is, so have time to reflect.
We already know that only a few weeks ago, Trump singularly upset the whole election apple cart!
Trump set the national agenda by opposing illegal immigration and bringing up other issues that the GOPe and their allies desperately wanted to avoid, and now they can’t.
The GOPe was not prepared for this, and as a consequence they don’t have a clue about what to do, hence their almost universal collapse into a pile of quivering jello, flip-flopping like a bag of Mexican jumping beans dumped on a hot griddle.
Trump has exposed those who pretend to be conservative but are really just fronts for big money establishment campaign donors who purchase their candidates with campaign “donations”.
Trump, by actually being a real man, has exposed the other candidates (Cruz excepting of course) and their allies for the weak little sniveling sellouts that they really are.
Trump’s vociferous truth-telling and fearless neutering of the kommie media have been the catalyst that triggered a massive revolt amongst conservative voters who are infuriated at the GOPe Congress doing absolutely ZERO to stop Obama’s agenda, and suddenly the GOP RINO leadership is in full blown panic mode and in full blown retreat, and the SMALL conservative House contingent smelt blood in the water, took heart, and charged in against a weakened, frightened and paralyzed GOPe leadership, and Boehner was taken out as a sacrificial lamb.
Trump is absolutely correct when he says that without Trump in the race, everything would be same-ol’, same-ol. The Joyful Tippy-Toes Turtle would be creeping closer to the finish line, Boehner would still be safely ensconced as Speaker, and there would be no mention of illegal immigration are any of the issues surrounding it by any politician in either party, other than possibly how critical it would be to pass immigration “reform”.
The media are loath to make the connection, but it’s obvious that the Boehner resignation was yet another falling domino, toppling due to the Trump Effect, because Trump’s unabashed truth-telling and fearless neutering of the kommie media triggered a revolt amongst the great unwashed GOP masses which emboldened a few conservative Congress critters to grow a few pairs.
And we wouldn’t even be having ANY of these conversations about illegal immigration and the myriad of other Obammunist issues destroying our country if it wasn’t for Trump. Instead, we’d simply be debating which RINO, GOPe squish would be least likely to be stomped by Hillary, and the GOPe would once again be exhorting the “base” about how critical it is for us to once again vote for the “lesser of two evils”, that is, vote for the GOPe side of the Uniparty coin.
And do note that ALL of the oligarchs and plutocrats are frightened to death of Donald Trump because the billionaires and millionaires can’t buy him like all of the other politicians they routinely purchase, because Trump doesn’t need nor want their money, and the kommie media is frightened to death of him because he isn’t afraid of them either, the bottom line being that Donald Trump can not be controlled by the rich and powerful or the corrupt media, so for anyone who is truly for campaign finance reform and wants to take money out of politics, voting for Trump is the only reasonable choice.
President Trump is really the last hope for this country: if he can’t undo any of the damage wrought by the Obammunists, the U.S.A. is done.
So least we forget, the above, and much more, are called “The Trump Effect”.
Judging by the actions of the marxist muslim controlled uniparty in Washington, d.c.......I don’t think we have the time to wait for Trump.
“see what Cruz has to say.”
Why?
He’s not eligible to serve as either the president or Trump’s man servant.
He’s just wasting everyone’s time.
Like JEB.
Best reason I can come up with is please, let’s move on to the Republican candidate vs the REAL enemy, Hillary (most likely) and get some kind of resolve to win THAT war. The Trump vs Cruz thing is so intense and emotional. I sure hope we can all come together to beat the real enemy when it’s all over. Otherwise this is all just a total loss. That’s certainly what the Dems are hoping for.
You want to flesh out these two candidates?
No, I think your mind is made up, and things aren’t turning out the way you wish, so you’re trying to buy some time to fill your bucket of dreams.
The sooner we conservatives get behind one candidate, the more formidable we will be against Hillary.
Now, think of one candidate who is best capable of beating her.
There’s only one. Trump.
The date feb1 was set long before this race started. If it look rushed, its only because Cruz decided to take the sprint late in the race. Cruz been senator for years, if he couldn’t get people to know him by now, its his own fault
There’s been no hurry... this primary season has already been dragging on for freaking forever.
Trump is liberal NY scum. Cruz would take him out in a head to head race.
yep , and a bunch of corn pone Iowa haysseds should not have the singular ability to set the tempo for a national election , as much as they do . Only 6 electoral votes ....
The whole Trump thing is out there....
I expect to see the fake column that Obama had for his coronation set up next week for Trump
You’re making too much sense. How dare you! :)
