Vegas alone is over 70% of the vote. Reno 12%.

"Who cares? I would say you have contributed zero to any of his victories. What a creepy cheerleader."

Do you know what you are talking about? Or, are you like the rest of us and baffled?

[Dave W]

I have a feeling Cruz doesn’t want to be VP. It would be a waste. The VP shouldn’t be smarter than the president. As for the SC judge? We all know it is going to be his sister.

[Ciexyz]

Sweet.

[Dave W]

Trump could defecate on stage and you would praise him. Trump does win the uneducated vote.

[SaxxonWoods]

There, there.

Breathe slowly into the bag.

[Kit cat]

Do you all know that the entire DEM caucus had only 11000 voters Hillery received 6000 votes, right now Trump is at 18000 votes!!! This crap that he can’t beat Hillary is total BS!!!!!

[Jeff Head]

There is so much anti-Trump crap spewed on the medi and posted in FR...

They honestly believe we still buy their worn out tricks and propaganda

Easier to understand if you know that they aren't really directing their propaganda towards us, but to their own group of like minded voters to keep them fired up and on the plantation.
The first rule of journalism is to "know your audience"

I’m not usually one to toot my own horn, but I’ve been saying since Trump entered the race, that he would be the one. I’ve never had a single doubt that he’d claim the lead early on, and hold it throughout the primary.

I was slightly behind you. When he opened a ten point lead after the "sending us rapists" comments, it was clear to me that a very powerful movement was beginning. The next question is in what order will the others drop off.

[DannyTN]

Trump is very close to beating rubio and Cruz together.

This is totally unfair to the people who are now paying so much more than they used to. It is torture to the insurance companies and the end users both with its continual complications and changes-—nightmare stuff. But worse than that: it is criminal to abuse the sick this way.

I have an idea. Lets do it over, but not with these circus clowns in charge. Elect Cruz and Trump, and let Trump design the new plan.

Amen! Same for me - I logically dismissed his argument about Trump’s viability. It not only seemed impossible, it appeared almost ludicrous. And here we are - not only is his candidacy supremely viable, but he may very well be the solution that America needs. It’s amazing that C-N-N saw that months before anyone else could (or would).
