If you think Trump is electable in today’s America, you’re smoking some powerful stuff.

Nobody plays dirty politics like a woman scorned either. Hillary was played quite well by Limbaugh in 2008. Lots of conservatives switched parties in the primaries to vote for her at the urging of Rush. Enter Trump stage left with a vitriolic conservative sounding message. The goal is to split the Republican base and it is frightening that so many just dont see it. Trump is going to pull away votes, conservatives will be disappointed...AGAIN. How many will stay home and not vote this time because of this game from Trump? Hillary wins. Can't find anything to challenge in your assessment.
Cheering on Trump isn't much different than jumping on a bucking bronco, giving the crowd a big show, then being bucked off before the buzzer.

Apparently, Goldberg doesn’t realize that conservatives are ready to move on from the corrupt Republicans in D.C. who don’t care about anything but lying their way to re-election. Read Ted Cruz’s book, “A Time for Truth” to learn how real conservatives are persecuted by slime like Mitch McConnell.

Jonah, who is a New Yorker, is suddenly surprised that Trump hits back at his critics? HE’S BEEN DOING THAT FOR NIGH-ON 40 YEARS, PEOPLE! That’s his style; either get used to it or ignore it.
Funny, Jonah rode to fame on his highly-conservative mother’s coat-tails but now has joined the stupid party lock, stock and barrel.

People who believe that Trump is selling the cure for what ails them are like fools who flock to big government in a crisis.
Trump is a symbol of our popular culture - a celebrity who knows everything.
This is Trump’s art - his deal, his moment to burnish his brand.

For gosh sake enjoy Trump but please still vote Cruz.

out of the mind of bert into the mouth of Jonah
Absent the Republican Party, there is no conservative political power
The main reason for being anti Trump is that he is a through and through New Yorker. Being labeled a New yorker is as bad as it ever gets

Trump is addressing the elephant in the room. US citizens are sick of being pushed aside for ILLEGAL immigration. We are sick of paying for them, we are sick of seeing them treated as royalty, and we are sick of seeing politicians pander non-stop for them. In a nutshell. And funny how most everyone glosses right past that in their attacks of him.

You don’t need to tell me anything about Trump. He’s basically been my neighbor for 40 years. Well, if NYC is one big neighborhood, of course. He has dominated the pop culture of NYC for decades. I will not support him for president because I’m looking at another candidate and hoping he will break through. But I am enjoying his schtick immensely. I enjoy it whether he’s running for president or annoyingly gilding the statue of Sherman on 5th Avenue. Goldberg knows all these things and yet is faking running for the fainting couch. (This from a man who is making jock-strap jokes?)

This is what is so frustrating with so many people blindly cheering someone on they have no clue about where they stand on the issues.
Trump’s not a conservative and no amount of “right” statements is going to change that. Trump has and always has been out for one person and one person only....himself.

To: Cincinatus' Wife
the GOP scorecard
- Donald Trump -- My favorite braggart! Self funded campaign but he will get hundreds of millions in donations from the outraged peasantry and patriotic millionaires. Trump is who the Dems fear the most due to Trumps populist appeal.
- Jeb---useless RINO tool. An open borders embarrassment "Illegal immigration is an Act of love" This idiot is successfully raising millions from Chamber of Commerce type open borders, cheap labor Republicans
- Scott Walker --excellent but how much money/funding can he get?
- Rick Perry --- solid governor who is a useless Presidential candidate
- Huckster--- name sez it all. Just go away!
- Marco Rubio ---really running to be Vice President. He has a good shot at it being Hispanic so a ticket balancer allegedly pulling in Hispanic votes (yeah! right!)
- Cruz--- Very solid but what kind of money can he raise?
- Rand Paul--- I have nothing against him
Dems
- Hillary--- the devil incarnate in a plus+++ size pantsuit
- Bernie Sanders--an honest socialist who is same as Trump in being against awful trade deals and open borders. Or so he says.
-
When I tally up I see Trump as our best candidate

I'm a fan of anyone who speaks the truth like Trump has been doing and then refuses to back down because the rabid Left (and some twisted-panty conservatives) don't like truth unless it comes out of their own favorite candidate's mouth.
It is the "trash Trump" while he is speaking such Truths, mentality that gave us both terms of Obama and may very well give us a Hillary.

...”Whos going to fight for the base who put them in office last year? McConnell, Boehner and the chicken $hit senators who are afraid of their own shadows and allows obama the media to crap all over them and not give them fair coverage? Been there, done that. The country is lost anyway. Might as well go for broke at this point.”...
I feel much the way you do.
