I don’t know guys. I’m just not quite there yet.

I’ll be there for you in November. Make no mistake.

I will vote for the proverbial Dead Dog in the Middle of the Street...

And, BTW... Any attempted maneuver to get Cruz voters to go to Rubio will not work. No way, no how. They will just go to Donald Trump.

The reason they liked Cruz in the first place was because he was actively against the Republican Establishment. Any back-room deal that tries to get them to move them in the Establishment direction will fail spectacularly.

At the moment, Trump appears to be the only one on our side with a solid chance of keeping Hillary or Bernie out of the WH - we can accept it and make it so or we can throw another one in a little girl hissy fit and claim “principles or we can ride into ownership of the WH and maybe have some substantial and real shaking up of the RNC and the rest of the traitorous establishment - it’s what we claim to want but our actions say it’s a lie.....

Any backroom deal will cause this voter to never vote republican again. I’ll write my name in if it comes to it. Frapster for president.

Anti-Trump are running on fear. They fear Trump won’t do the things he promise he will do. What if he will? Will you still be afraid?

Amazing what happened when the nominating process was taken out of the hands of party bosses and left to the people.

HOLY HEDGE FUND! Jeb-You/re-Next spent over $125 million on his failed campaign? The GOPe must be choking on the chilled Cristal, Oestra caviar, and stuffed lobster in the country club Grill Room.

==========================================

IMHO, the ignominious collapse of Jeb-You/re-Next drove a huge stake into the heart of the establishment GOPe. Forget erectile dysfunction. The fallout of being politically castrated is devastating to a powermonger.

The GOPe/s de-b***ing began when candidate Jeb said he didn't need the Republican base .... and proceeded to carry on, business as usual, as his numbers sunk into oblivion.

Jeb telling a key bloc of Republican voters to take a hike is the consequence of the country club GOPe demeaning and dismissing conservatives as not being worthy of their elite party.

The entitled Jeb-You/re-Next took it as Gospel when he heard the Bush elders condescending attitude towards conservatives....people to whom the aristocratic Bush/s feel socially superior.

But the GOPe should know this: they will get no pity from conservatives for their woes......and we aim to stick their noses in the mess they made every frickin chance we get.

Amen to Republicans supporting Trump! That is the only thing about the Dems I’ve ever envied. When they see a person who is winning EVERYWHERE and is attracting HUGE crowds like a rock star, they get behind that person and ride the wave!!!

They will find something they can like about that rock star and run with it, defend them to the ends of the earth, to sway more people over to their side. Democrats understand “if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em”.

After all folks, it is all about us winning in November and not Hillary!!!

I said it a long time ago. The smartest thing the RINOs could to would be to jump on the Trump Bandwagon and try to convince him that they were just joking.

I think McConnell and Ryan are flirting with this idea when they proclaim a determination not to approve any Obama Supreme Court nominee. The Trump Effect has already jolted them.

But if these clowns were smart enough to recognize the true nature of the Trump Effect in its inception, they wouldn't have been RINOs in the first place.

“The Republican Establishment Needs to Stop Worrying and Love the Donald”

In a nut shell, that means that the Republican Establishment needs to start listening to the American people instead of their political “in crowd.” They’ve lost touch with ordinary Americans completely.

The Republican establishment is tickled with Trump’s success, they know an establishment guy when they see one.

Actually, I hope they keep attacking him for the next week or so, just to make the steamrolling all the more inevitable. Every time they open their mouths, it cements people’s resolve to vote for Trump.

Donald's a rock star...

I haven't seen that kind of enthusiasm since The British Invasion.

A Rubio-Cruz ticket, assuming they would do it?

Oh yeah. Two cuban Jr Senators from Southern states. What could go wrong?

No, it cannot be Rubio/Cruz. Too many, like myself, don’t trust Rubio not to head right back to Schumer and push for another “gang of eight” amnesty bill. I’d likely hold my nose and vote Trump. Now, imo, only a Cruz/Rubio hook up might be a successful challenge to Trump, but they better announce it soon.

A Cruz RUBEio ticket would wipe the anti-establishment meme and if either had a chance to catch Trump that would end right there.
