The butt hurt will be strong with you Tuesday evening. LOL!

[DoodleDawg]

Publishing magnate Steve Forbes weighed in on the Republican presidential race Saturday and said that Trump would do well with unions, even if union leaders pull for a Democratic candidate.

Trump is strongly anti-union. That won't play well with the rank and file or with their leadership.

[Parley Baer]

It is called the Reagan coalition. Reagan brought aboard a lot of blue collar Democrat workers. Looks like Trump will do the same.

[carjic]

Sure he will. He is one. How in God’s name is he getting anyone else?

[ObamahatesPACoal]

Trump’s the only one who needed loans from all kinds ofbanks. Cruz & Rubio decided to cozy up for sport.

[EnglishOnly]

TRUMP speaks the TRUTH

and that’s something we haven’t seen

IN THE WHITE HOUSE for over 7+ years.

GO TRUMP!!

Why is Cruz not winning?

[Yosemitest]

"Why is Cruz not winning? "

The Trumpsters CONSTANTLY LYING about him, and trying to paint him as anything other than what he really is.
The all out attempt by the LAME STREAM MEDIA, AND the "ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS", AND THE DemocRATS, to IGNORE him, or BURY him, MIGHT HAVE something to do with that.

Sen. Cruz: The Real Story of What Is Happening in Washington ( 59:47 )
Published on Sep 28, 2015

It really IS worth your time.

CRUZ: Loretta Lynch told a gathering the day after the San Bernardino attack
that her department would move to prosecute anyone whose, quote, "anti-Muslim rhetoric," quote, "edged towards violence."
The day after a terror attack, 14 innocent lives snuffed away.
As has been the case all too often in the Obama administration,
we may be facing once again the weaponization of one of our own government agencies,
deployed not to protect Americans,
but to force them to submit
to the Obama administration's code
of what is and is not acceptable speech.

RUSH: Heck, I'd go even farther than that.
The day after 14 Americans are wiped out and others are wounded by Islamic extremists,
the attorney general warns the American people
any criticism of those people and we're gonna prosecute you.
Anything you say that might lead to any violence, we're gonna come after you.
"Well, wait a minute,
what about the people that just killed 14 Americans?"
"Well, they were radicalized.
It wasn't their fault,"
or some such drivel.

Donald Trump's view of "EMINENT DOMAIN FOR PRIVATE USE" IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL !
Read the history of "Eminent Domain" for yourself.
Donald Trump didn't have the power to take it, as a private citizen.

BUT ...the Government taking someone's property and giving to Donald Trump's company, DID GO AGAINST THE CONSTITUTION, pure and simple !
If the government take someone property, just to give it to another private company, because they think they can get a larger tax income from the deal,
then it IS WRONG AND ILLEGAL as the LAW was ORIGINALLY INTENDED TO BE !

It's UNCONSTITUTIONAL !
So ... the guilty SHOULD BE BLAMED !

Once again, this is Donald Trump's vision of private property rights when he was just another private citizen.
So, AGAIN I SAY ....

Imagine how much more damage he could do as the leader of the Federal executive branch.

Trump has had to endure the same attacks.

So the "Trumpsters" are responsible for millions and millions of people voting for Trump, in record numbers, instead of Cruz?

If not for Trump, Cruz would be getting record setting voters to the polls?

The "Trumpsters" and the media are responsible for people NOT voting for Cruz?

Which "Trumpsters?" The people here at Free Republic? We're responsible for Cruz not winning?

Has is EVER occurred to you that Cruz is simply running a bad campaign?

Ever thought about that?

Why is consistent conservative Cruz touting Keystone?

[okie01]

Why is consistent conservative Cruz touting Keystone?,/i.

Because:

1. It will be good for the economy -- creating jobs and lowering the cost of energy.

2. It is a proper use of eminent domain. Keystone is a common carrier and constitutionally entitled to its use.

3. With a pipeline, if the route goes thru your land, you get paid...and you get to keep your land. Sweet deal.

[neverbluffer]

Yeah because so many Democrats are in favor of building a wall and kicking out illegal immigrants

Yosemitest: Trump's PRIMARY GOAL IS TO BE THE FIRST SOCIALIST DemocRAT ELECTED BY REPUBLICANS

fieldmarshaldj: Apparently you've never heard of Theodore Roosevelt, Herbert Hoover and Dwight Eisenhower.

That's a good point — Trump is much like Herbert Hoover. Hoover was a "progressive Republican" (he had been a member of Theodore Roosevelt's Bull Moose Party) who signed the Smoot-Hawley Tariff in 1930. Based on his experience in private enterprise, he set his primary goal as the elimination of the many inefficiencies in government operations.

Smoot-Hawley was a major contributing factor to the Great Depression; can't we learn from history this time?

Herbert Hoover's lasting legacy was Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who was elected in reaction to the economic disaster of the Hoover years. So, in direct reaction to Hoover's mistakes, the US moved staunchly to the left for 50 years.

If Trump is elected President, I dread the President who comes after Trump -- the US will elect a socialist to pick up the pieces because they'll blame conservatism for the Trump disaster. And that will be the end of the free market in America, the end of the America that we once knew.

Keystone is private. The ‘good for the economy’ has been accepted for eminent domain for quite some time. Used often for shopping centers and other commercial development.
