It’s not that I doubt the numbers exit, it’s how Conservative Review spins it

I guess you are not on board for our descent into a Howard Stern world that is being prepared by the Trump supporters.

already been posted a few times today by various anti-Trump Democrat trolls. my response is the same:

Trump has all the right enemies: the media, the progressives, the students, the professors, the GOP, The Democrat Party, the communists, the marxists, the socialists, the muslims, ISIS, obama, hillary, bernie, NRO, VOX, SLATE, SALON, HuffPo, etc.

It’s just one of the many reasons I love the man so much.

We have seen mass psychosis, for example, in the death of Princess Diana and we have seen election psychosis at the time of the emergence of Barack Obama but the Trump phenomenon is unique.

As you point out, he has few redeeming human qualities apart from the ability to make money with other people's money, including the taxpayers, but his character failings are accepted as virtues and even aped by his supporters. We see this time after time in this forum when they swarm.

The grave danger is that the psychosis will carry him through the nomination but the general public will not be seduced and he will be utterly repudiated at the polls. His unfavorable ratings suggest that the anxieties and frustrations which energize conservative voters are not as relevant to Democrat and independent voters who will be immune to the psychosis.

He is the next President of the United States. Interspersed a done deal. It’s over. He came out hard against illegal immigration and the Americans will not relent. It’s over.

Do not discount the effect that 30 years of a debased popular culture has had on the American psyche. It is not only liberals and moderates who pump up the ratings of the garbage that is out there. A large number of people who self identify as conservatives make up the loyal audience of a Howard Stern for example. Since the population today is less cultured and literate than the it was in 1955 and before, here we are with a debased candidate for a debased electorate.

I used to think highly of you but I’m disappointed with your posts regarding Donald Trump.

Since you constantly tell us how bad he really is for all the reasons you’ve mentioned here, why not do us misguided supporters the favor of documenting these accusations before it’s too late?

Please provide us with links to legitimate articles regarding these allegations so we can make an informed choice and make an educated decision on whether to maintain or withdraw our support?

He hasn’t gutted Ted Cruz who is apparently a nasty guy. If fact, it looks like Cruz is gaining.

This is why Trump loses in head to heads against the D and Cruz wins.

"I don't care what anybody says. I'm still gonna vote against the [commie]."

I didn't serve during the Cold War to end up voting for the enemy as this nation's leader. There might be better and others I also like but Trump has the best odds for beating Hillary (or Bernie) in the General. I will not sit this one out because there won't be any next time if a D wins this time.

Cruz is just not a likable man. It is well known in DC what a jerk he can be.

Ted Cruz, by sending these "Voting Violation" mailers, in my opinion, violated the following federal election laws. Many States have similar laws.

The following is an image of a mailer Senator Ted Cruz sent out intimidating and threatening voters. It contains voter information and the information of the voter's neighbors.

It threatens "follow up notices" with no doubt information about if the voter voted in the caucus.

It attempts to intimidate voters by threatening public disclosure to neighbors of a person's voting record.

One must ask what does Senator Ted Cruz expect the person receiving this notice should do to their neighbors for not voting as Senator Ted Cruz demands, and what might happen to the voter if the neighbors are informed they have not voted as Senator Ted Cruz expects?

These are direct threats and intimidations in violation of federal election, civil rights, and postal laws.

The following PDF document link outlines the federal election laws and the government's position on such matters for the purposes of prosecution.

Federal Prosecution of Election Offenses Seventh Edition, May 2007

The following sections are from the above document. I've condensed and paraphrased the document to the important words.

42 U.S. Code § 1973gg-10 - Criminal penalties (violation of election law)
A person in any election for Federal office knowingly and willfully intimidates, threatens, or coerces, or attempts to intimidate, threaten, or coerce, any person for registering to vote, or voting, or attempting to register or vote; urging or aiding any person to register to vote, to vote, or to attempt to register or vote; shall be fined or imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both.

18 U.S. Code § 594 - Intimidation of voters
Whoever intimidates, threatens, coerces, or attempts to intimidate, threaten, or coerce, any other person for the purpose of interfering with the right of such other person to vote or to vote as he may choose, or of causing such other person to vote for, or not to vote for, any candidate for the office of President or Vice President shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both.
