It’s a he. A local talk station had him on once and he stunk up the joint so much they never had him back.

You mean 1724 where a Cruz supporter repeated a lie claiming a statement about Pr e-exisiting conditions meant Trump supported Obama Care? A lie that had been pointed out to the same poster yet he continues to repeat?

No matter how “holy” you think your cause, knowingly repeating lies tends to make people who know the truth get “nasty” to the repeat lair.

So the pundits are saying that since 65 percent of the repub electorate are against Trump then his ceiling is 35 percent. I am thinking that the same was for McCain coming out of SC and he later went on to the nomination, why couldn’t it be for Trump? Is this wishful thinking? I mean McCain had conservatives in a tizzy and yet he got the nomination. Same with Romney.

Nothing is wrong with me.

These contracts over the past 4 or 5 decades refused to acknowledge basic economics. The cost of wages and cost of production became too high. Buyers are not going to purchase equipment when it is cheaper to purchase elsewhere.

Trump himself buys concrete and lots of other material from China because it is cheaper.

The unions and their workers were repeatedly warned the consequences of their vote and they don't care and vote for it anyway.

A more recent example is Hostess. Hostess warned the union if they voted for the labor contract, they would have to close down. The workers voted for the contract and surprise Hostess shut down, putting thousands out of work.

The unions and its workers have shown themselves stubborn, obstinate, thuggish, beyond reason, economically ignorant, harmful (let's talk about railroad contracts, if you want) and something I don't respect and the sooner the unions are gone, the better off we will be. We are almost there. Only 7% of private workers are unionized.

I could go on and on. Let's talk about FedEx and UPS.

I didn’t make the original crass comment about Carrier employees. To laugh at their plight is unAmerican, IMO.

Good news only if you are for Rubio, who will get the lion's share of Yeb!'s support.

And even the Cruzers who are still sober have to admit that if not for Donald Trump, this would not be the case tonight. In fact, we’d be talking about who came in 2nd behind Jeb!

I looked at the raw votes. Richland, Rubio is up 1800 votes, Lexington, Trump is up almost 5000, Aiken Trump is up 3000, Barnwell Trump up 500. You can use the link it the prior post for the congressional district map and this link for the county tallies by clicking on each area. County results

It’s touching that you have such an open heart for the illegal alien invaders who’ve stolen no less than a million dollars off my family’s table over the last decade.

If you don’t understand that our nation is being overrun and colonized by these people, then you’re living in the same bubble that the DC elites are.

They have to go, if our nation is to survive.

Exactly as people who listenede to the CNN Town Hall, or read the Transcript understood what Trump was talking about.

What happened is a bunch of “Conservative” media led by the habitual liars at Red State took 1 word out of the 1st sentence and then shopped the lie around to all the other websites and news groups.

I just heard Weekly Standard “rporter” steve hayes repeat the lie to Hanniy on Fox. Hayes tried to argue with Hannity when Hannity corrected him.

There apparently is the “conservative” equivalent of the Leftist 2008 “Joou-0-list” coordinating a smear campaign against Trump. As Trumps tweet shows, it appears he has a pretty good rapid reponse team engaged to beat the lie merchants.

Publication like Red State, Town Hall, Steve Hayes NR etc better get a grip. Candidates come and go, a reputation as liars follows authors, and publications, around for the rest of their careers.

Fun stuff. Thanks.

Now if you’ll excuse me, Johnny’s in the basement, and I’ve go to go see what he’s up to.

Night!

” took 1 word out of the 1st sentence and then shopped the lie around”

The preferred tactic by third place candidate too. His spokespeople do the same thing.

MY candidate is now officially anyone not named Trump.

I’m pretty sure he’ll still win.

Well I don’t want them to become instant citizens/Democratic voters. It’s one of many reasons I’m for Cruz.
