Nor should she. Trump is clearing out some rat underbrush and going right after Barry. Sarah has no need to complain about Trump, that will come much later, if necessary.

you know what? if people don’t like or trust trump? that’s okay. but can we need to support him insofar as he’s going after obama— in doing so, hopefully he can get other GOP candidates to get some balls. cuz right now, they’re all being way too nice to obama, imo.

The media and the Democrats picked McCain for us and they are probably backing Trump. As long as they pick a weak candidate for us and glamorize whomever the Democrat candidate is they have a good chance of getting their way.

The Media is the Democrats. (I know media is plural but we used to use The Press as singular and I intend to do the same with Media. They are all in lock-step.)

[I cannot even estimate the number of Democrats who voted for Obama that are now telling me that they love Trump because he is standing up to Obama]

But those same Rats would vote for Obama over Sarah Palin. Why is that? I believe it is because they let the media lead them.

Are you including Gov. Sarah Palin in that grouping?

I would not be suprised if Donald is doing the mine clearing for Palin or the GOP. He has the guts to take the job on. He knows America is at extreme risk. He may be bluster, blowhard, whatever but he is a patriotic American.

[However, if Trump doesn’t get the nomination I am afraid he will make a 3rd party run]

If he does that, he wants Obama to win.

Some would and some wouldn’t. Some of the Democrats that I know, subscribe to the adage, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.

My brother now detests Obama, and if he could not bring himself to vote for Sarah Palin, he would vote third party or stay home. Others are just dingy, shallow thinking party flacks.

It didn’t hurt my brother’s thinking that landing a contract for a Super Wallmart, saved the company that he works for.

I agree . Trump is helping out in more ways than one . He is pounding Princess O on a daily basis . O had to run under Stephys skirt on ABC to try and fight back on the birther deal. He looked weak and spouted some jive about horns on his head. Trump is a huge personality , his actions point out to us how old and stale these second raters who are toying with a 2012 run are . I am not saying he ill win the Presidency , he will however stir it up and speak out which is more than anyone else will do . Pubs 2012 front-runners , Mia .

Trump would be a great nominee for the Democrat Party.

Pro- abortion
Pro- Amnesty
Anti 2nd Amendment
Pro ObamaCare
Anti Reduced Spending (ripped Paul Ryans plan)
Pro Eminent Domain for beg developers to steal citizens houses
Pro Harry Reid
Pro Rahm Emanuel
Anti free trade

He is the perfect Democrat

Here is something else the Establishment GOP/DNC/DEMS can are chewing on.

Suppose Trump wins the presidency and we still don't know anymore about Obama's made up past. Do they think Trump is going to stop his investigation of Obama? I don't think so. They fear Trump will do a government internal investigation and will likely find tons of dirt along with a conspiracy to commit, obstruction of justice, and possibly treason. They will live in fear of a Trump Administration.

Well with all due respect to the naysayers Romney, Palin and TPaw have all had ample opportunity to demand that Obama present proper credentials to prove eligibility. They have likewise all had ample opportunity to demand troops on the border and I mean armed troops actually patrolling. They have all had time to present ideas about how to deal with OPEC and the Chinese. To date I have not heard much out of any of them.

Enter Donald Trump who will sit down on camera and just speak like the rest of us sit around in our living rooms speaking on these issues, wishing someone would do something. I can remember Trump several years ago saying that we should send private businessmen to negotiate our oil deals with the Arabs. I thought he was right then and I think he’s right now. He’s right that the Chinese rip us off and we don’t produce anything anymore. When you are right you are right.

Sooo if these prospective GOP candidates continue to sit on their hands and are too timid to say what they think and put forth their ideas on how to fix the problems then Trump is going to blow them all away and probably get the nomination.

I remember when Ronald Reagan was running for President. The smear machine was in full bloom. I liked the guy but all you heard in the press and from the left was he is too old, he’s not a deep thinker, he’s just a B movie actor, he’s not too bright, he used to be a Democrat blah, blah, blah. He turned out to be great.

Donald Trump is not a conservative. He is a middle of the road republican and a raging capitalist. He’s not going to push to overturn Roe v Wade or campaign to stop gay marriage. But he will probably be able to create jobs and I’m sure he will drill baby drill. I’m also sure he won’t bow to the King of Saudi Arabia and the Mayor of Tampa and he will not stand up overseas and give a speech about how we are a Muslim nation. 4 years of The Donald might not be so bad.

That’s not true.

Trump is Pro marriage, Pro life, anti ObamaCare, and Pro Business, Pro Fair Trade, and Pro American.

Trump is not conservative and is a joke. How many of his businesses have gone bankrupt?
