Washington and Lee says Trump will be the nominee. They have a great track record, getting it right 19 out of 25 times since 1908, and all but two since 1948.

If so, then Hillary will be president, the Supreme Court is hers, and the USA is over.

Might as well just crown Trump now if that is the case. His petulance and shouting at the debate was telling and I think his temperament will be more and more of an issue.

I am seeing it that way too. Trump put himself out front early by taking the most conservative positions and he hasn't looked back.

Further, we still have several GOPe candidates splitting the Trump/Cruz opposition vote and so none of them are getting close. Yet they are doing well enough (Rubio; Jebbie; Kasich) to stay in the race for a while.

Donald Trump is the Republican front runner Month over Month, but everywhere he goes, he walks into a hostile environment.

Trump wins points with us hard working peons at home when he exposes how the RNC and liberal/media moderators have done everything they can to stack the audience and questions against him.

Trump holds his own in a live television situation and wins, debate after debate. Trump is exposing how these live debates are rigged against him.

NEVER has a Republican front runner been treated the way Trump has by his own party and it is disgusting for viewers to watch. Disgusting.

Trump has the highest negatives of any candidate. You can’t overcome that.

As a result, almost all polls show Trump -— and only Trump among the Republicans — losing to Hillary.

I don’t care if you like Trump or not. I do care about the USA. And Trump will lose big in the general.

Trump will likely win New York in the general election.

Trump will Definetly win Florida over Clinton. Trump will also win Ohio, Penn and Michigan over Clinton.

New York and Florida east coast time. He will also win New Hampshire over Clinton.

Anyone who says Trump will not win in the general is flat wrong.

Cruz will not win New York. Cruz will likely not win Florida in the general.

Trump won nothing in my eyes. He seems unable to speak in full sentences and responds poorly to criticism. I do appreciate that he is not politically correct- but all he does is repeat it is going to be "amazing" and "great" with no substantive policy. Personally, I expect more.

I also worry that he will be as autocratic as Zero.

Trump has made a sport of doing things they say can't be done.

Besides, Hillary's negatives only beat Trump's by one point, but you don't see anyone bemoaning her chances.

Trump will likely win the Republican Primary. And Trump vs Clinton will be MUST SEE TV for the debates.

Hillary will be exposed on live TV. Ratings will be through the roof and Trump will win.

In 1980, Reagan had a lot of doubters. Many felt we would be better off with somebody more establishment like George Bush, Bob Dole or John Anderson.

True. Do you think RR would have defended PP on a debate stage like Trump did last debate? And continue to do so? No? Me either. You are comparing apples and armadillos, man.

I remember Reagan speaking on behalf of ERA in 1980. It didn’t amount to much after he was elected. Just pandering a bit for votes.

We are hoping that Donald J Trump gives his acceptance speech on July 21, 2016 at the Republican National Conventions in Cleveland, OH stage.

Go Trump!
