Donald Trump speaks to members of the press on his jet in Council Bluffs, Iowa.

Very relaxed and gracious to the reporters. His patience is saintly, it really is. One reporter asked if he intends to be as aggressive with his tone once he's president, he said "No, I'm running now to win."

Nothing scripted, nothing planned, no press questions planted like what the others do, esp Hillary.

The contrast between Trump and Hillary is so extreme that I can't see how she wins one precinct. She'll get the 25% low informational pro abortion crowd, so will Bernie.

In fact, I predict, Bernie is going to win the one if not two of the first two primaries. It will force Hillary to go after him directly. It will get ugly.

Funny also how many of the things Bernie is saying, like gov't, so is Trump.

Can't wait for the New York polls. I think they will be a shocker. Trump will be miles ahead of Hillary. Then what does she do?

Folks, the press is really going to be on Trump's side. The story is going to change here quickly, fueled by the press that wants the narrative to change to a race between Bernie and Hillary, then places like New York for Trump, and they'll play that up.

The man is a master at schmoozing.

To be fair, I think that was a small town hall, that Cruz attended.

I’ve not heard her do many if any vocalized pauses. She’s a pretty good speaker. No question, Cruz and the Rubio and the others really raised the bar on these. Far contrast with the guy everyone thinks is a great orator, Obama. He can’t ad lib Happy Birthday.

With all the Cruz worship threads you’d think he had a larger following.

Nope, all illusion. No recent crowd shots, no huge rallies.

Press Secretary?

I’d like to see Mark Levin beat up the press for a few months before someone like Ann Coulter steps in.

LIke that guy who leads The Five.

That would be Eric Bolling. Good choice for press sec.

I still think Trump should make Katrina P his veep choice. She's a fighter, like he is.
