Donald Trump launched his TV advertising just after New Year's with his familiar swagger: He was so far ahead in the polls that it might be a waste, he said, but he felt guilty for not spending his money.
The reality was more sobering.
After six months of branding opponents and critics as losers, Trump faces the threat of becoming one himself in Iowa, the first state to hold a Republican presidential nominating contest. The ads are a crucial part of Trump's strategy to keep Ted Cruz from beating him in the Iowa caucuses on Feb. 1.
Cruz's appeals to evangelicals, tea party followers and other conservatives have made the Texas senator the current favorite in Iowa, though the New York billionaire remains a solid front-runner in the rest of the country.
Cruz's surge in Iowa is jeopardizing Trump's quest to "run the table" by winning every GOP primary and caucus nationwide.
The two are taking sharply contrasting approaches to Iowa. Trump has darted in for occasional rallies before huge crowds, relying on TV news coverage to reach Iowans. He typically spends a few hours in the state, then returns to New York in his private jet. Trump's rallies Saturday afternoon in Ottumwa and Clear Lake came after an 11-day absence from Iowa....

Seems strange that Trump’s website is only available in English, without pandering to Hispanics.
All the rest - Ted included - make sure to provide his site for “en Espanol”.
Big surprise.
Yes, Don Trump is a god. All other candidates should withdraw tomorrow morning during a joint press conference and endorse him while signing over all their campaign funds and volunteers to his campaign and then get into a bus to barnstorm the country for Trump.
No, he’s flawed in many ways - they all are. None are perfect and we all have our choices.
But the GOP’s incessant attempts to patronize Hispanics is one reason people have gone to Trump.
Bush gives speeches in Spanish - so does Rubio. We get it that Ted is Cuban, and at least he doesn’t stump in Spanish.
Why pander to anyone’s RACE by not using English?
Pandering is the mark of a politician. All of them, regardless of party.
Your tantrum in the face of a simple fact regarding all the candidate’s websites seems a bit childish, but then that’s rather typical of your group.
Set high expectations for Cruz...
call Trump a loser...
It’s a ‘two-fer’ for the media!
And they’re not letting it go to waste LOL!
We should just anoint him tomorrow. He has so little knowledge he thinks he can do what he wants with a pen. Let’s just make him king and he can issue an edict for Bambi to pack and leave.
Datura- Trump has sold you himself. He isn’t worth 2 cents.

Interesting. I wasn’t aware of that, but it doesn’t surprise me.
The adult voice of reason arrives, on cue.
It surprised me too. Then I went to all of their sites (ok, not to the 2%ers), and they all have it.

At least he hasn’t said that one of the first things he wants to do is change the constitution.
So much for ‘constitutionalist conservative’, huh?
LOL
