President Trump' May Not Be So Far-Fetched - And the Polls Scare the Establishment to death
Fox News ^ | July 10, 2015 | Geoff Earle

WASHINGTON — Republicans who started off viewing Donald Trump as an amusing sideshow are starting to fret that the real-estate billionaire is becoming the main event.

Since he defied skeptics and launched his presidential bid last month, Trump has rocketed in the polls, dominated media coverage and helped steer the debate on issues.

“I don’t know that he even knows how far he takes this,” former New York GOP Rep. Thomas Reynolds, who is close to GOP candidate and ex-Gov. George Pataki, told The Post. “He has the wherewithal . . . He has put together a pretty wholesale ground force in New Hampshire, and that has to be taken seriously.”

Because they went on strike which they were prohibited from doing.

Cruz speaks to the American populace. You must not have heard any of his speeches. He will do just fine

Press Conference: Donald Trump meets with families who children were murdered by Illegals. I posted this YouTube video on Twitter. These families say Donald Trump is telling the truth.

I hope your right and if you are I will admit it.

He better have a plan for lots of jobs, good jobs.

That is the #1 issue in the country.

“He comes from a VERY wealthy family and had a father who taught him ALL about the building and real estate business and who was his boss!”

Trump has been his own man for years, as his father has been dead for quite a while now. Trump took the 6 million he inherited and parlayed it into a 6 billion dollar business empire. I’m sure you’ve done something similar in your life. Jealous of The Donald, are you?

Yes, they thought they had just about won on this issue.

The people hate illegal immigration and they know it.

It is a jobs, crime and basic fairness issue all rolled into one issue.

They are trying to make is a racial issue but it is not.

So you think only politicians can be conservative?? It’s more like the opposite. Anyone who is not a politician can do conservative work. What you said is the biggest GOPe- nonsense I’ve ever heard. Did you get that from a McConnell press release?

He's not going to win. When he's got enough attention he will drop out and endorse Jeb.

If he were president he'd fight for amnesty and he promote big government like he always done. Total fiscal irresponsibility.

Your accountant tells you how much Trump us worth? Fire you accountant. Trump isn’t worth 10% of that.

If Trump gets the chance to build that wall, lets hope he goes through with it.

You are so naive. Trump would be on the side of all the things you claim to be against. Look at his track record. Have you ever heard of Kelo?

Who wanted his endorsement? I don’t know of anyone who wanted it. But Romney got it. Says a lot about Trump.

I always got really pissed at people who threatened to vote Third Party if their guy was not the nominee. Well, I’m to the point that now, you can count me in that number. If the GOP nominates anyone besides Ted Cruz or Donald Trump I will vote for a Third Party candidate. And that just might be Donald Trump. Another FReeper said, a few days ago, that if the Election is between Hillary (Dem.), Jeb (GOP) and The Donald (Indy) that is a race TRUMP CAN WIN!

Mitch McConnell, John Boehner, Karl Rove, John McCain, Mitt Romney and all the other RINOs can kiss my butt on both sides.

I think it was an ice skating rink. But point well taken. See pic floating around with a young Trump holding an ice skate.

NOTHING is as far-fetched as Jeb Bush being number one in the polls. I have not seen or heard of anyone for him.

That you’ve ever heard, lol. Here’ some more. Trump won’t be dropping out. He will continue going up in the polls, and he has an excellent chance of winning the primaries. Time will tell, won’t it.

Your biggest priorities are letting illegals stay here, banning the Confederate flag, and preventing people from offending Muslims?

Truth be known, nickcarraway doesn’t even know what a Manchurian candidate is.
