Trump looks to take command of GOP race as Rubio, Kasich fight to keep campaigns alive

Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump will look to pull clear of his competitors with victories in the Florida and Ohio primaries Tuesday, results that would also seal the fate of his homestanding rivals, Sen. Marco Rubio and John Kasich.

With Illinois, Missouri and North Carolina also holding Republican and Democratic primaries, Tuesday has more delegates up for grabs than almost any other day on the campaign calendar.

Polls show Trump beating Rubio by double digits in Florida, but Ohio is expected to be a closer race. Buckeye State polls have shown Trump trading the lead with Kasich, while the incumbent Ohio governor holds a slight lead in the polling average.

We can all wish and hope for things, and it will be interesting to see what reality will bring.

Bing forecasts a five state sweep for Trump.

I think it will track almost exactly except Kasickness will take his home state by a hair’s breadth.

The polls say Trump wins 4, and maybe Ohio.
If he goes 5/5, the left will ramp up their
theatrics tenfold.

But it will be too late. Remember “the early bird gets the worm.”

It’s early on Florida primary day but if you look high in the sky you can see young Marco up there in a death spiral and should be crashing to earth around 8:00 p.m.
looking forward to seeing him crash and burn.

Kasich/s "I'm-Just-A-Regular Guy act is wearing thin, The facts are these:

Kasich was managing director of Lehman/s Columbus, Ohio investment banking division until the bank went under in 2008. Kasich says "I wasn't involved in the inner workings of Lehman, I was a banker. I didn't go to board meetings or go and talk investment strategy with the top people."

Kasich is lying b/c a report in The Columbus Dispatch, quotes a Lehman official who said Kasich had “board level and CEO relationships where he helped not only open the door for Lehman Brothers, but he also was a key member of the deal team providing advice.”

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

What does Kasich know about this?

The best book on the 2008-9 banking crisis that slaughtered our economy was “The Sellout,” by Charles Gasparino. He traces several threads:

- How the investment banks (Merrill, Lehman, Bear Stearns) had leveraged themselves into near-death experiences;

- How banks gave out low-down payment mortgages to buyers with sub-standard credit, forcing up prices;

- How the scam of "securitization" meant these sub-standard loans could be bundled up and sold far and wide (w/ great losses to the buyers);

- How the ratings agencies gave out dubious AAA ratings

- How the sales incentives to create mortgage-backed securities led to incredible short term behavior on the part of investment bankers;

- How AIG (insurance) screwed up by guaranteeing many Credit Default Swaps....etc, etc, etc.

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

Kasich got the Lehman job b/c he introduced Ohio pension reps to Lehman officials (2010)

Did Kasich fcilitate Lehman doing education, transportation, municipal bonding deals for Ohio?

(The bonding scam: That/s where the pols and the bank make zillions of dollars in perpetuity....leaves the taxpayers w/ huge tax bills....in perpetuity.

Little Marco enjoys a final flight.

I was a Cruz supporter until I saw how the entire MSM, GOP/DNC political world lined up against Trump in committed lockstep, he is clearly an outsider to them,

He has all the right enemies, these are the ones that would hate me also if I was on that stage,

Even if you’re not for Trump, please pray this coordinated evil that seeks to push its NWO globalist antichrist agenda against this country is defeated,

Pray that God will rebuke it today in whatever form it takes, Soros/Kasich/Romney/Rubio

This is not a battle against flesh and blood but against spiritual wickedness in high places, (Ephesians 6:12)

Beleivers have the authority to bind and rebuke these spirits as we’re shown in Matthew Chapter 18.

I voted in Missouri, 2nd voter in line. Unusually small voting line. Others at work from Illinoise and Mo saw very little turnout at 6.a.m
