Last poll I saw had him leading 2-to-1 over the second place candidate (El Jebbe ?), so no meager plurality in a large field (half of whom are desultory, such as Linda, Gilmore & even La Raza Rick). Trump is no Perry.
Our feel for his candidacy is completely different here. He’s far more appealing to me on a personal level, I’m just so sick of the losers and mealy-mouthed cowards infesting the GOP. I want someone to stand up and unapologetically knock the teeth down the throats of the opposition. We’re losing this country, damn it !
If the GOP puts up another loser/ringer/coward AGAIN against Hillary (presuming she’s even the nominee — the Dem base hates her almost as much as we hate El Jebbe), I’m walking once again and voting 3rd party Conservative (be it Trump, FR’s own Mr. Hoeffling, or even ex-Rep. Hostettler). I have no interest in preserving a party so far in bed with the Democrats that you can no longer tell where they fuse together. It’s like watching a combo of Illinois and Massachusetts on a national scale, collapsing under the weight of their statism, corruption and collusion. Let them “Whig” out.
Meaningless national poll (Iowa matters, and NH and SC) from CBS:
“Trump 24, Bush 13”
24 is meager to me. His vote share. It could be 30 to 10, I still don’t care, it would still be 30, as in less than a third. To suggest this makes him nigh unstoppable, and again it’s August, is fairly silly.
“Our feel for his candidacy is completely different here.”
That’s for sure. ;-D. We’ll see my friend, for now we must agree to disagree, unless you don’t agree to that, in which we’ll disagree to disagree.
