If the Damnocrats win this time, America is truly lost.

And your prescription is Trump? The realityTV star guy that is best known for uttering "You're Fired"? In a country full of people who are worried whether they are going to keep their jobs?

Trump might get a decent percentage of middle age to older white male voters - and that's about it. That just isn't enough anymore to win general elections. He'd bomb with Hispanics and African Americans (despite his silly claims he would win those demographics) and the gender gap would be staggering as Trump would lose the womens vote by probably 15-20%.

Trump is not going to be the GOP nominee, mostly because pretty much everyone who has even the slightest lick of political savvy knows he couldn't win a general election. Same reason Palin didn't run in 2012. She might do well in the primaries, but knows she couldn't win a general. She may be applauding Trump's run for office, but I bet even she knows he could not win a general election.

And Jeb Bush can win? And do what? Cruz can’t win right now, he can’t even win primaries (and I love Cruz I truly do.) If we do not unit behind Trump we will have Bush. And if we have Bush we have President Hillary. Bush is the divider of this party, he is the one who needs to get out of the way. Trump/Cruz is an ideal winning ticket, in fact I think Cruz is Trump’s best choice as VP, Texas is a large state. As the VP candidate Cruz gets huge exposure, he becomes a national figure, if Trump wins and does begin to make some positive changes, Cruz will be president in 4-8 years. If Bush runs, Hillary wins, and we are a Marxist state for a very long time, and the world descends into a very dark age. Trump is far from perfect, he will do things I don’t like — heck Reagan said and did things I did not like — but he really is our only chance right now to wrest control of the GOP from the global elitists who control the party now, and with them in control we will continue with worthless losers, McCain, Romney, and now Bush.
