Santo didn’t feel that way until he started running for public office.

And when Donald Trump gets elected i doubt he will ever sleep in the Whitehouse, he owns much better lodgings, maybe he can rent the rooms out? Celebrity fundraising? For veterans?

Seriously, there is no law that says the POTUS must live there, or is there?

This is really the most ignorant article I have ever read. Trump is the same person he has always been. He is just smarter thsn the so called big bench of GOPe doofuses. If y’all had spent more time worrying about yourselves instead of mounting cheap attacks on Trump, he might not have gotten so much attention. Idiots!

Gawd the jealousy is sickening.Whahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhha

I guess Santorum doesn’t think much of the voter’s ability to think for themselves.

I don’t know if Trump is “stealing” anything - but he is touching on lots of great issues that many are concerned about. Kudos for Trump keeping those important issues front and center. Ted Cruz does too. And has been for quite awhile.

Ted Cruz in 2013 on Border Control:

“A Senate committee rejected an immigration-legislation amendment offered by Sen. Ted Cruz today that would have added significant security resources along the U.S.-Mexico border. The amendment proposed tripling the number of Border Patrol agents stationed along the U.S.-Mexico border and quadrupling equipment, “including cameras, sensors, drones and helicopters,” within three years. And the 700 miles of border fence required by a 2006 law would need to be finished.”

Cruz on Taxes (March 2015)

Cruz’s solution—a single income tax rate with deductions limited to charitable donations and home mortgage interest—would be a step in the right direction. But retaining any deductions at all is an invitation to escalating exceptions, and keeping the income tax would mean keeping the IRS or something like it, contrary to what Cruz implies.

By contrast, a national sales tax, an approach Cruz also has endorsed, would make “abolishing the IRS” feasible and a return to something resembling the current tax code less likely, with the additional economic advantage of taxing consumption rather than savings and investment. In 2013 Cruz cosponsored the Fair Tax Act, which would have replaced the federal income and payroll taxes with a 23 percent sales tax, collected by a new Treasury Department agency with help from state revenue departments.

Both of these approaches would require exemptions or rebates to avoid large tax increases for people of modest means, which would entail a certain amount of intrusiveness and administrative complexity. But they would still be far superior to the current system, which leaves taxpayers not only on the hook but on the line, vainly waiting for the government’s help in filling the government’s coffers.

Ted Cruz, May 2015 on Political Correctness:

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) on Saturday weighed in on the shooting at a Muhammad cartoon contest in Garland, Texas, while discussing how President Obama is “unwilling” to used the phrase “radical Islamic terrorism.”

“We saw the ugly face of Islamic terrorism in my home state of Texas — in Garland, where two jihadists came to commit murder. Thankfully one police officer helped them meet their virgins,” Cruz said.

“But when given the choice between free speech and the political correctness of refusing to acknowledge radical Islamic terrorism, it is a time for choosing where we stand,” he continued.

No. Trump has stolen the ability to manipulate an outcome from the defenders of a political status quo that was intent on force feeding us amnesty, force feeding us climate change, force feeding us political correctness and doing nothing to stop Obama. As for Santorum, he hasn’t won an election since he lost his Senate seat in PA nearly a decade ago. Why he thinks he is qualified to be President is beyond me. He has no money and no organization.

Above is a link to some of Trump’s previous words on immigration. Tough border policy goes back to quotes of his (and books he has written) since 1999.

There seems to be some back and forth on that, but bottom line, Rick’s 100% pro-life now [but Trump isn’t].

I think it’s the way Christ will judge us all; we either back all the children conceived, or we’re not backing any of them, in His eyes.

If Trump would convert over to Life 100%, and talk more about the importance of family in general, we’d be more interested in what else he has to say.

He definitely is taking the thunder away from good men running, which is fine, if he himself was a godly man, but one can’t be godly and believe in death for innocents at the same time.

look. This is all Trump now. Nobody wants that cow faced bitch. She is sitting at 7% in the Zogby poll. Trump is at 33% . This is over. Guys like sanitorium are making a living on naive campaign contributions. They hire their wives and kids and get kick backs. I just want to see his signed pledge to support Trump as Nominee!! Where the hell are the “required pledges” ?”
I have to add that I saw Charles Krautstammer tonight on O’ Reilly. He is a butt boy for Karl Rove and the GOPe. I will never watch him again. He is terrible. I was wrong to like him before he was flushed out into the open.

Like scoring with an interception. Yes

I’m a girl but even I can figure out when a team sends their trainer over to the other team to accuse them of cheating, but they’re playing fair and just taking advantage, when the trainer’s team is not holding onto the ball and scoring one way or the other, there are eunuchs involved and we girls and everyone else wants the stronger team to just win and go on

The accusers/whiners must then just go away
