Ted Cruz or Scott Walker may be the closest we will get this election. I’d vote for either.

Trump finds himself fighting tooth and nail with Ted Cruz, the last two (and a half) men

Obviously a reference to the TV show, but which is the "and a half"? Is this a 'small hands' reference to Trump, or poking fun at Kasich for finishing fourth in three-man races (behind Rubio, who dropped out)?

I’d vote for neither of those vote fraudsters.

Actually, it’s not a reference to the show. The “half” is John Kasich.

Say what?

All these coward politicians had the same opportunity to highlife
the same issues Trump has built his campaign on.

Yet, these issues were never important to them until Trump came along.

Trump may not win the nomination, but the issues he has raised will
have to be addressed.

Walker is nowhere close, but Cruz is closest only because he copied many of Trump’s positions

We could have had the things that Mr. Dunkin identifies as "Trumpism" - law and order on the border, a sane foreign policy, real free trade instead of the corporatist fake version that strip mines the domestic economy to the benefit of a tiny few - without Trump. We had the opportunity in 2008 and 2012.

Unfortunately, thanks to the efforts of people like Mr. Dunkin, we got the likes of Traitor McCain and Mittrack Obamney instead.

So you think Ron Paul would have given us fair trade, more law and order, and a clamp down on illegal immigration.

If he’s any kind of philosophically consistent libertarian, he definitely would not have.

Yes, I have often thought that. It would be so much easier if he wasn’t an orange weirdo who goes on reality TV and pro wrestling not because he has to, but because he digs it. Just if he was a kick butt business man, which he obviously is. All this other dog squeeze is so bizarre.

And yes, anyone wanting to be president in 2016 is probably equally bizarre.

Trump leads, Cruz follows. Trump walks the walk, Cruz talks the talk. Cruz supporters will cry like babies the day after Cruz wins because that’s the day Cruz betrays them and gives it to them good and hard on behalf of his bankster buddies.

Well, Ben Carson had most if not all of the same positions as Trump. Softspoken but still an outsider who wants to put America first. Simpler tax code, a plan for the veterans, a halt on immigration until better screening could be done. He was also focused on education. He was crushed. If Donald Trump wasn’t in the race, we’d be looking at a Jeb consolidation.

The only outsiders were Carson and Trump. I want an outsider. I want fresh perspective. I don’t want any more first term senators or royal family candidates.

Upon his entry into the race I said that Donald Trump was the "wrong messenger with the right message."

Since then, his message has ricocheted around like a pinball machine and his churlishness has disqualified him personally but his original simple immigration and, to a lesser extent, his trade message was the right one.

“If we could have these things, without Donald Trump being the “face” to them, that would be great.”

I don’t think it’s Trump himself as much as some of his
fanatical supporters that are putting up a bad face.
Trumps moderate at best, not a conservative but I do like
his “in your face” attitude on the issues. I’d say he would
make a good republican president except for he doesn’t have
much of a record to speak of. Still I’d vote for him over
Hillary or Sanders. If anything Trump is the face of
a pissed off America.
