It’s all about The Cheap Labor Express.
They do not want the citizens to stop the illegal alien inundation.

They represent both the ultra- left and ultra- right extremes in the party.

Kasich is just your typical establishment party hack. He is a liberal, but no more so than than Romney, McCain, Graham, or the Bushes. Unfortunately, this makes Kasich typical more than fringe.

Calling Ted Cruz the ultra-right wing of the GOP does a disservice to the concept of a far right. I think of Ted as representing the Elmer Gantry wing of the Republican Party. He's just another pious fraud, a conniving political player masquerading as some kind of holy man. I'm embarrassed to say that I had once seriously considered voting for him in the primaries. Luckily I figured out what Saint Ted was all about by the end of last year or early this year.

If Trump goes down in November, it should result in Trump starting a new party and taking his supporters with him, and leave the GOP in the dust.

Kasich recently said something like “I don’t know if I can vote for Trump.” That seems to be the standard line for GOP establishment anti-Trumpers now. Digging past the BS, this really means “I’ll be voting for Hillary in November.”

They are all in the tank for Hillary, they just can’t come right out and say it.

Good summary....

the issue of Immigration/Migration is such a hot issue.....bringing third world “human capital” here will keep wages lower...

Buzz also is that the third world populations coming here are more easily “managed” and willing to “co-operate” than the black population which so often now protests etc..

....”Digging past the BS, this really means “I’ll be voting for Hillary in November.”.......

‘Serious voters’ who know the issues and once had other candidates in mind, have certainly decided by now who they will vote for between Trump and Hillary.

... All others are just “fluff”, Or self-righteous “sour grapes” lingering on the vine. Who will drop off the map or do the right thing very soon.

What % of the primary votes overall did Kasich get? While every last % is important, I think Trump will pull in more than enough D and I votes to offset any Kasich types.

The Dems and Clinton and anti-Trump people are the biggest bullies I’ve ever seen, yet they call Trump the bully! They have over time pasted FB with their BS. I don’t have too many “friends” left!! And that’s a good thing.

Possibly....but for sure those bashing Trump at this point certainly are in Hillary’s court. That tune of being a “never Trump” song is nothing more than nails scratching across a chalkboard that even they recognize are sour grape notes at best....and even they can’t stand the sound!

I should know..I was there myself a few months ago....and you do come to the point, if you’re serious about your vote, where you have to get over your loss and look closer at how Trumps positions come closer to where you stand than Hillary’s...and that’s pretty evident.....and why we vote in the first place...on the issues primarily.
