Trump also said he really wants to run against Hillary because winning against her would be great!

The crowd couldn’t help but LOL in agreement. :-)

Drug buys for whom?

Medicare.

The MSNBC hosts were talking over him, so you may not have heard it, but that is his policy.

He also called for medical savings accounts, long a conservative policy idea.

I have to wonder about your power of comprehension. Trump wants a free market healthcare insurance with competition across state lines and not controlled by government and big pharma.

What strikes me about that minimum age of 35 is that back in 1776, 35 years of age was considered quite mature, stately, compared to today.

Trump is not only ready for the world stage, he will set the LEAD the world stage if elected.

He will have respect from everyone day one because he worked hard for the nomination and he was authentic. Even Libs will secretly admire Trumps work ethic and ability to run circles around the media while having the media maybe still want to take him down, they at least respect Trump because they know he knows what he is talking about.

The only question I have for Rubio is, if he’s so damn smart, why ain’t he rich?

The Trump TH will not interfere with Cruz on CNN.

As it should be.

Didn’t he call Obama a disgrace? The house really liked that.

Cruz is intelligent and can lead this country back from the brink

Maybe.

But based on what experience? He's had none in the private sector, and 1/2 of one term as a US Senator.

What's he going lead from? (This is a serious question.) Thanks.

>>He just needs to ripen up for 20 or 30 years.

Nah, he just needs to say the SAME thing in ENGLISH while talking to ENGLISH-speaking citizens as he says in SPANISH to the ILLEGAL invaders. True! ; )

Can we bring Cruz on the stage? I would love to see him debate Marco “the hack” Rubio.

He should have started a political forum in 1997!

Trump is the best Communicator. One of the best we have seen in years.

Yes because he's real and genuine. That's a rare trait to see in a nominee of any party. I'm so tired of political speak designed to not offend even the most sensitive among us. Voting for anyone else other than Trump will insure more lousy political platitudes.

Rubio's answer about his wife and family was really sweet and genuine.

If only all his rhetoric was like that.
