Trump can’t win in November under any circumstances
“Trump can’t win in November under any circumstances”
And yet you can’t envision a way that Cruz won’t, right?
Everyone was certain he would get out of the race. Then they were certain that he would drop in the polls. Then they were certain he wouldn't win any elections. Then they were certain he wouldn't get the nomination. And now it's gone up to he'll never win beat the Democrats. If I were a betting man I'd bet on Trump every time.
Trump can win.
But more than that he’ll be able to get things done once he’s in office. That’s the real reason democrats hate him... he’ll make a difference.
Trump will build the wall. He’ll make trade deals that work FOR the United States. Vets will be treated better than prisoners at GITMO. Our military will become a military again - and not a liberal elite social experiment. Jobs will start coming back...
I like Cruz but Cruz’s strong points are a keen intellect and great debate skills. They’re not ‘getting everyone on board’ and making things happen. When democrats say we should all work together - they mean we should work with THEM. When Trump says we need to work together he means they need to work with US. BIG difference. Huge.
When Trump wins South Carolina hopefully he’ll spend the first 8 minutes acceptance with a knock down drag out written speech (speechwriter time - metaphorical black tie) that speaks to people sitting at home who don’t go to rallies but are starting to believe. Then after the 8 minutes of reading the speech, he can toss it and do what he does best - have a pep rally that’s fun for all of us.

You really need to get out more. I was talking to a couple of fairly liberal people the other day and they were saying that the Democrats would win the election because we would nominate Cruz and they would nominate Hillary and that she would get all the typical minority and special interest groups to vote for her to put her over the top. I said what if Trump were the nominee? Would he not turn people out who don’t usually vote at all? Wouldn’t he get some Democrats to vote for him - people who would otherwise not even consider voting GOP? All of a sudden their entire demeanor changed. They went from boasting the the GOP had no chance to win...to likely winning IF Trump were the nominee. I would like to think any of our candidates could beat any Democrat in November...but I also think that only Trump could win in a landslide and honestly say he has a mandate.
I have always respected your opinion.
To win in 2016, we need to pickup Blue States.
Which Blue States will Cruz bring to the table?
Maybe Iowa but I don’t think so after pi**ing off Ethanol farmers.
Truthfully, I expect a Cruz ticket would loose AZ, CO, MO and not pickup a single Blue State
Passion is a good thing but it only goes so far.
Because everyone loves Hillary and socialism. Step aside, Sarah Palin! Here comes Hillary on a charm offensive. IT girl of 2016, her chunky cankles drive the boys wild!
Or if you prefer, the wildman of Vermont will wow you with his custom time machine, back to the future in 1917! Feel the Bern when taxes hit 88%! Such win. How can Trump beat that?
