Donald J. Trump â@realDonaldTrump 15 minutes ago The media has not covered my long-shot great finish in Iowa fairly. Brought in record voters and got second highest vote total in history!
Donald J. Trump â@realDonaldTrump 11 minutes ago I will be talking about my wonderful experience in Iowa and the simultaneous unfair treatment by the media-later in New Hampshire. Big crowd
Donald J. Trump â@realDonaldTrump 6 minutes ago I don't believe I have been given any credit by the voters for self-funding my campaign, the only one. I will keep doing, but not worth it!
That is not the way you were talking about Iowa yesterday.
Yesterday it was Trump will crush in Iowa and then run the table.
It’s amazing how Iowa has dropped in importance since Cruz won.
LOL. Yeah he probably used at least a year’s worth of his graciousness supply just to get through those few minutes.
I steer clear of predictions since I don’t seem to see the world like most people, but I think Trump’s reaction to his second-place finish in these next few days will determine his future. If he throws a fit because he’s not the winner then his political brand will collapse I think. He has a lot riding on New Hampshire now, and much more downside risk. Even if he behaves himself, I think NH is now a must-win for him, just as Iowa was a must-win for my guy Cruz.
Blaming the voters via Twitter for giving him inadequate credit is an inauspicious beginning to this next phase.
Stay classy, Doughty, you’ll get your chance ..... maybe.
We’d be happier if you all would go pout by yourselves.
And, by the way, this thread is not about our happiness but about Trump’s whining and complaining.
So what?
How is a prediction = Iowa is the most important state in the nation, and whomever is in 2nd is officially out of the running for good?
Because after New Hampshire I can bet no Cruz person is going to be saying Cruz needs to go.
These tweets are a really, really bad idea, particularly the third one. Cut it out, Donald, this is unseemly in the extreme.
I don’t believe in God’s plan because I’m an atheist. Now go eat your sour grapes.

I hope the Cruz fans here get busy, the entire media complex is all in for Rubio - the plan from the start.
They can gloat all they want about Cruz’s small victory, it won’t make a bit a difference once the all powerful media exerts their pressure on him, added with their pumping up of Rubio. I’m going to stay clear, he entire situation makes me sick.
If you think I am pouting, please explain this.
Read that line of text a little above mid screen.

While during the days leading up to the Caucus I began to think Trump had a chance and said so, it had been my take that the Caucus was simply too hard to quantify.
So yes I was surprised to see Ted win, but I had prepared myself for it.
When came on threads this morning it seemed to me Cruz supporters were additionally surly, thinking they had been vindicated so anything was okay if they wanted to give others a hard time.
I didn’t see the need for that. I tried to address it.
Civility goes a long ways.
Thanks for your response.
Look at your own post here. Have I ever expressed the idea the Cruz folks needed to leave the forum?
I was merely asking folks to think of the tone here.
