Trump's “Incredible executive experience” is the reason that the vast majority reject him.
The things he has done in business are not demonstrative of the character needed in any public office, let alone the top job.


You mean that 'vast majority' of thousands upon thousands of people at his campaign rallies, exceeding all of his rivals, AND the crowds for the 'RAT pack?

Yeah, guess they're all just a bunch of liberal dupes, right?

Did anyone on this thread read the article?

Did anyone notice all the percentages in the whole damn thing were illustrated in numerals?

Except the illuminative one. Hmmm?

See if you can find it. If you can, get back to me on what it says.

Hint: It’s a percentage. It’s hidden in the bottom third of the article. ON PURPOSE.

No, not necessarily. Reagan is dead, in fact he's not even on the ballot.

And that’s the way it izzz, folks. In the system we have now, the man with the cash goes the distance.

A LOT of people on this thread are NOT going to either believe or like what you've stated

However, it IS THE TRUTH. I think most of the candidates still in contention should stand by for a RAMMING by Trump.

It will take MONEY and he's got PLENTY.

I said get back to me when you want to talk specifics about Cruz's four big donors who are not pro amnesty.

Anyway check this link out.

The GOPE would prefer Trump over Cruz by a wide margin.

Trump is going to win every primary and every state in the general. He is going to take New York and California. This will be the largest landslide ever in any election. He will unite the party, and we will super majorities in the house and senate and the governorships. Obama will go down as the worst thing that ever happened to the Dems.

Trump is going to be in Iowa again I think tonight or maybe tomorrow. He’s not taking this lightly.

“Yes. Cruz is not well liked by anyone at this point”

What an inane comment.

If you believe any professional politician, you have much to learn.
Har! I've been active in the TX GOP on the fundraising side for nearly two decades. Your words are wise and I've got the scars to prove my efforts were betrayed at times (Cornyn, Dewhurst).

Ted Cruz is unique in my experience. I've followed Ted's career very closely for 12 years since his days as Solicitor General of Texas, having read and listened to most of his writings and speeches to the present day.

I was glad to get involved in fundraising for Ted when he entered the 2012 TX U.S. Senate primary at only 2% in the polls. Incidentally, fundraising became much easier with the endorsement and amazing support of Gov. Sarah Palin on the campaign trail with Ted.

From his past record over decades championing conservative causes and behavior in the U.S. Senate, I trust Ted more than any person I've voted for in the past forty years. I even include Ronald Reagan in the mix, but only because I never had any personal contact with that great man. I've had the good fortune to be around Ted in a friendly group setting out of view of the media on a few occasions and he is the same honorable, Christian man that you see in public.

Trump . . . does not have much room for growth.

That's one of the problems with a Trump candidacy. He does have a certain "floor" of enthusiastic supporters. But how high of a "ceiling" does The Wall have? Trump's negatives are extraordinarily high, across the populace, and this, while he has virtually 100% name recognition.

I've noticed Trump going after the bamster and the shrill one a lot lately, a sign he's consolidating and thinking the long view. IMHO it will be a done deal in about three months.

To me, this is how you win the primary...I know the conventional wisdom is not this, but conventional DC wisdom is almost always WRONG. Remember Newt in 2012? When he was kicking butt, he was kicking liberal butt not Republican butt.
