This goes beyond the primary — this ELECTION is Trump’s to lose [more likely to win].

Even I, a Cruz supporter, am now on the fence — Trump gained my respect when he called to stop muslim immigration until people get their heads out of their Obamas.

Did I hear correctly yesterday that BS- Hussein/Insane - O has blocked Christian refugees? And put Christian orphans in a muslim house?

No way he would have the support of the people around him if the underlying plan were for him to get Hillary elected.

There is nothing to support this theory.

Listen to the guy from Washington Times, he was the only SANE person on the Fox Bret Baer Show and Hannity.

And Trump is not leaving the Repubs. He has beaten them. The polls will come out and TRUMP maybe at 60 percent.

Trump was at 41% in yesterday’s morning Consult Poll. Carson 12%, Rubio 10%, Cruz 7%, “Saint” Jeb at 5%...

I just thought of something that would be great.

Stop all immigration! We don't need immigrants. And the reason, when we get to .5 percent unemployment or ZERO. Then we can consider opening the country up again.

No NEW IMMIGRANTS. Even the Black population can get behind this idea.

What I like about Trump is that you learn from him.

The common thing we ALL do is if someone doesn’t agree with us, we storm out, use the F-bomb, throw a hissy fit. What does Trump do?

He actually stays calm, he engages people. He goes to the media one on one, NOT ON THE VIEW OR OPRAH OR LATE NIGHT, he goes to where the heat is, and he holds his ground.

Just like Davey Crockett. When you know you’re right you hold your ground.

I’ve found myself more confident on things I’m sure of these days, and more blunt in relationships and at work.

Believe it or not, I think Trump has influenced me.

Trump supported Romney for President and Reagan long ago. Conspiracy theories are foolish. Trump is just putting the GOP on notice. You screw with me I’ll screw back. The GOP leadership has been shameful in their piling on behaving as if its an American value to just let our country import sharia loving Islamists.

"I am not a conspiracy theorist at all. But if he runs as an independent, no one will ever convince me otherwise that this wasn't the plan all along to put Hillary in the White House.

As early as 1988 Trump told Oprah Winfrey that he if ever ran for President: "I think I'd win. I'll tell you what, I wouldn't go in to lose. I've never gone in to lose in my life."

I think so, too.

The RINOs fear the teeth of Donald “The Doberman” Trump.

And he knows it.

He’s just peeing on *their* tree to make a point.

Trump is just holding that as his well trump card to keep the RNC in line.

“And remember - Democrats are ten times worse.”

I never forget how corrupt the democrats are....and the RNC is right up there with them. We can’t fix them until we fix our side first. It doesn’t get any worse than the RNC, who has PLEDGED to support Trump to be using him to fund raise LYING to his supporters and then giving the $ to the likes of Paul Ryan and McConnell. Anyone who doesn’t have a problem with that is no better than a democrat.

Cong. Greg Walden denies NRCC dirty tricks against Trump...he LIED!

Trump should explain this because it's not obvious to most of us.

You sound like Jebber:

Jeb Bush has suffered at the hands of Donald Trump, who has taken special glee in taunting all of his weaker opponents in the Republican field, but especially so the one-time presumed frontrunner from a previously untouchable political dynasty. Today, Jeb revealed what might be his final attempt at felling the orange beast: perpetuating the conspiracy theory that Trump was planted in the GOP race by the Clinton family.

This conspiracy is extremely delicious, though for obvious reasons not-quite mainstream. Still, the idea that Trump is purposefully sabotaging the Republican race has been percolating long enough that we covered it at-length back in August.

Jeb! is sitting at between 4 and 8 percent in the polls, so this is understandable, but it's curious coming days after one of his top donors admitted that if it came down to Trump and Hillary in the general, he'd support Hillary. Stories like this just reinforce for members of the grassroots that in a Bush/Clinton election, Americans have no real choice. Jeb's numbers indicate that most have already made up their mind, whether they support Trump or not. Instead of slandering the presumptive nominee, maybe Jeb! should consider dropping out.

Imagine how that tidbit [Humas proud Muslim comment] would translate into official US foreign policy.

Methinks it already has affected US foreign policy, while HRC was SOS.

Oh, he’ll win something lucrative all right.. he wouldn’t be considering handing the election to Hillary unless he knew there was something in it for him.

So yes .. in that sense, he’ll most assuredly win.

Can I call you a moron after Hillary is elected? Presumably you Trump supporters won't be badmouthing President Clinton, since you will have been responsible for getting her elected.

You keep telling yourself that and try not to slash your wrists when you hear the words "I, Donald John Trump, do solemnly swear ... " on January 20, 2017.
