Carly is just as much a vanity candidate as Don Trump or Ben Carson, Mike. Bad example.

How did he hurt Bush? Quite the opposite - he’s making Bush look dignified and like a statesman. Trump allows the media to push the narrative that conservatives are crazy. That is Bush’s sweet spot.

Who cares if he offended the Mexicans? Do the Mexicans care about offending us when they invade our country?

Jeb is a political opponent. He’s nobody’s victim. At least I hope he’s not seeing it that way.

The Donald wasted no time proving to everyone why he should not be president. He also proved why he's going to spell trouble for the GOP primary process.

Everybody?

Everybody knew he was a joke and should not be president but he sure spells trouble for the GOP?

Nice try Michale.

But then on Tuesday the one-man, one-ring, Donald Trump circus rolled into Republican town.

Not hard what side of town he's on.

Winging it without a written speech or a Teleprompter, Trump mangled lots of facts about the economy, attacked Republicans Jeb and Marco Rubio, offended the Mexican nation

Trump offended the Mexican nation?

A nation where the millions of it's people routinely break our rules, ignore our laws and defecate on our sovereignty?

He offended them?

I'm offended by the stupidity and ignorance of this article.

With the exception of a couple, the entire group of candidates resemble
a Barnum & Bailey Circus Freak Show.

In that respect, Trump is no more a clown than 85% of them.

Poor Jeb.
Even his supporters realize he is always a victim, never a real competitor.

Taking him out early is an act of love....

No, she isn’t.

He said horrible and untrue things about illegal Mexican immigrants, saying they were mostly criminals and murderers while admitting only "some of them may be good people."

Bilge like this is why I gave up on Michael Reagan in 2006.

"Entertaining and scary at the same time, Trump was a speeding political train wreck before he got a chance to leave the station. "

If this guy can't win why is everyone apoplectic? Barrels of ink and trillions of bits are being expended to deride him and dismiss him.

The entire political operations of every other candidate, left and right, are focused on eliminating Trump. All the punditry and media too.

All established institutions of the American body politic are focused on Trump and defeating him.

He sure gets a lot of respect for somebody that doesn't have a chance.

Just an observation. Perhaps next week things will be back to the boring normal.
