Kasich and Carson are just best boys on the set.

Rubio will be on the boat leaving March 15.

Hmmm....you posted the typical Trump supporter response. Perhaps it is you that’s the fool. I will assume you will have no complaint when I refer to you as a “tRumphumper.”

Yes I agree. Trump is winning because of a combination of message and strategy.

I am immensely disappointed by the vitriol being thrown around in this election so far. For proof, just look at the postings above.

Name-calling, personal insults, even hints of violence ... all because somebody prefers a different candidate than you? Seriously?

I much prefer a reasoned, and reasonable, discussion of positions and policies, even with the knowledge that I will never sway another’s views. We are all on the same side here, are we not?

If the worst came to pass and we entered into a “hot” second American Revolution, we’d be fully screwed. We would be too busy shooting at each other, gleefully, while the Redcoats swept to victory. It’s sad.

Well, Trump didn't invent the reality TV show called "Running For President".

THAT was done by an unholy alliance of infotainment media, pollsters, consultants, and donors, who imagined that their creation would grant them the power to select the President, or at least to channel the choice such that whoever won, that their dream of globalization and the dissolution of America could progress unchallenged.

They created the environment in which Trump couild come out from under a bridge and smash their little empire to smithereens.

These sort of attacks are meaningless noise to a voters who’s son is overseas on his third deployment, his grand kids go to a gang infested incompetent Public School, who sees his urban area neighborhood deserving into BLM/drug gang thuggary, has been underemployed since 2008 and is scared to death his employer is going to move his new job to Mexico any day now

Great post!

How is it projection when people who dislike Trump are actually saying that on this forum?

Makes sense. Trump knows as long as you are the most entertaining one in the contest every week, you don’t get “voted off”, because the boobs don’t want to be bored next week when they tune in.

It will be really sad if that is enough to get you elected President though.

Trump is the 21st century Archie Bunker; that’s why he’s winning.

Trump doesn’t even act like someone running FOR president... Trump is winning because he’s acts like he IS the president. People have been clamoring for a leader for a long time, so they’ll take the strongest leader, warts and all.

If this were a reality show, it would be The Apprentice where the citizens are the Boss, hiring the hardest working, most effective candidate who has earned the win.

Swing and a miss.

If you buy in to this Hollywood lib’s ridiculous theory, you need to recalibrate your analyzer.

[I have never witnessed thousands, 10,000 plus, waiting in line sometimes in inclement weather to see and hear a political figure like Trump. Never. No explanation needed.]

This is the revolution. People are sick and tired of these lying, backstabbing, traitorous, good-old-boy prostitutes in the DNC and the GOPe.

Trump wins because these condescending pricks keep telling Americans to vote eGOP or liberals or else.

“Trump will fix none of those things. Keep believing in your little cult of personality.”

And your eGOP has?? Get real. The eGOP talks a big talk to get elected.
