Who is attacking Trump?
Mark Levin the coward who never mentions the BC or eligibility on his show.

Rove who attacks Palin and told Bush to push for amnesty. The same Bushes where old Ma Barker Bush attacks Palin.

Sarah Palin has not said anything bad about Donald.

Trump’s 15% wealth tax (in lieu of the death tax) is brilliant.

His experience in working through bankruptcy is valuable in that he has had to put everything on the table and sort out a path of recovery, all while maintaining credit-worthiness.

He could make Obama look like a crying child in a debate.

The mission is to legally remove Obama from the office through the election process. Second to that is the mission of optimizing the Republican candidate’s conservative credentials.

In 2003 in CA it was Arnold vs. mMcClintock for the repub side for the governor. The true conservative lost and Arnold was a disaster. Just saying. Full Disclosure: I worked the Arnold side :(.

No way could I vote for Trump. But to the extent that he weakens our Marxist Muslim _Resident in the White House, more power to him.

Nah. It takes no guts at all to do what brings you an advantage at bargain basement prices. He’s in it because whether he wins or loses, he still wins, and that’s got nothing to do with guts. Guts is going into the heart of darkness in Madison, WI, risking death threats, violence against your children, and various other forms of threatened union thuggery, to tell Obama, “Game on!” We need to pray for that woman.

Much better than 0bama. Check.

Better than 2008 retreads Romney, Huckabee. Check.

Able to withstand withering attacks from the left and media as he rolls back Rat agenda. Check.

I don’t think anyone would have trouble beating 0bummer with 5 dollar gas, the U6 unemployment number in the mid 20’s and the Middle East coming apart at the seams.

However, if Trump doesn’t get the nomination I am afraid he will make a 3rd party run. This could hand the election to 0bummer again.

I like what Trump is doing, but after watching (from the comfort of my PC) Sarah Palin in Madison today, I don’t think Trumps numbers mean a darn thing anymore.

When the game is truly on, then we’ll see...

Trump is a highly skilled salesman sums up much of what you said.

This one here, Trump is the man for basically attacking the most important part of president Obama to attack, which is his celebrity status. Unless you are a die-hard Democrat, Trump’s words would sound a little bit discouraging. However, Trump is more, in my perspective, a diversion or trend than an endgame figure. I would not want him for president given his positions, which you can look up at On the Issues. However, if he can distract the media with what he is doing, and other decent candidates can step forward, we may have a good run on our hands.

Trump is winning in the polls for the same reason Abernathy won the election as governor of Hawaii: He is looking into Obama's birth records. Just about everybody wants to see Obama's certificate, not just birthers. Libs want to shut up the birthers, many are wondering what Obama is hiding, some are just dying to know what looks like a coverup. Curiosity, mostly. Trump is asking questions that everyone wants the answers to.

BTW, "Media Malpractice" is playing on Netflix instant.

I cannot believe that any conservative would support Trump. It makes me sick when I see people right her on FR doing so. HE IS PLAYING YOU. Trump is a fraud.

Trump is catching fire with some because he isn’t cowed by the Dems or anyone else.

Or is he cowed by the RNC/GOP establishment types. In many ways, the RNC/GOP and the DNC/Donkeys are tied together at the hip. It's a DC beltway club that needs to be smashed. Trump could very well hammer this symbiotic club.

If The Donald has Obama’s Occidental College transcript, then he is on the right track.

Obama came back from Indonesia as an Indonesian and took advantage of the opportunities available to foreigners legally residing in America.

How can a college student be a Natural Born Citizen and a foreign national?

Trump is winning at the polls because there is nobody of clear winning potential, including romney, newt, palin and bachmann.
