I can’t agree that Trump couldn’t beat Clinton. Just on a basic human level, she’s got to be the least appealing person we’ve ever seen run for president; and drags a lifetime of unsavory baggage behind her.

Instead of CNN and DD, shouldn’t we be watching the Missouri Secretary of State’s numbers?

Neither am I, I don’t know if this would be an official primary under the statute, Presidential primaries are usually a function of the political parties, not the state boards of elections.

We have some manufacturing left.

What no one is discussing is the incredible state of emergency we would be in if we ever were in a war and had to manufacture anything for a war effort.

We are too reliant and have allowed our means of production to wither.

Does anyone realize just how exposed we are in the event of an emergency?

Trump 52?!? Oh happy day.

I turned on Fox and they have The Five on...mourning the loss of Rubio.

These people still don’t get it. The American people are making it loud and clear...and yet they keep up their agenda.

about 2 months ago Cruz and Trump support were about even, and now Trump is supported by around 80 percent of the forum today.

Many Cruz supporters were run off of this forum or became so disgusted they chose not to participate. The result is that the "caucus" to which you refer is now a tiny little echo chamber of about 200 Trump supporters. Do you see Trump getting 80% anywhere in the real world? He does not yet have a majority vote in any state, only pluralities. Most Republicans want someone else.

Trump is so unpopular across the nation that he could even lose to Hillary in an orange jumpsuit.

That's just absolute nonsense.

For one thing, Trump's negatives are the result of relentless and ongoing efforts.

Hillary's negatives are despite a persistent effort to prop her up; they are more persistent, and she is much less likely to be able to rehabilitate them.

Given the profound, even breathtaking enthusiasm gap, Trump easily has a chance to wipe Hillary out in the general election.

Hypothetical voter matchups 8 months out are the epitome of propaganda; at this point in 1980, Reagan was about 30 points behind an incumbent, and he still blew him out.

Furthermore, Donald Trump can help redefine the GOP demographic map, with the result doing so much damage to the Democrat party, that they will be relegated to minority status at the federal level for decades to come...

What Marco has to offer is a pocketful of delegates. If Trump ends up not needing any help in that dept then obviously there are many other qualified people.

TRUMP LEAD GREW FRO 2,667 TO 2,881, WHY NOT CALL IT NOW.

I CAN’T SEE WHERE CRUZ IS GOING TO GET THE VOTES WHEN ALL COUNTIES ARE REPORTING.

Trumps total lead is 2666. 6% left to report.

So of some 3000 votes left about 2817 need to go to Cruz. Might look suspicious, but hey, anything is possible.

Cruz and Katsup need to suspend their campaigns for the good of the Party. It is time to unite behind the nominee.

Oh it will take years. But if we do not change direction, and very soon, we will be so destroyed economically, with the massive debt and all, we become another Greece on a larger scale.

Consider that the massive plant Ford is building in Mexico is all of $3-4 Billion. We have trade imbalance of $505 Billion with China and $57 Billion with Mexico EVERY YEAR. If that money stayed in US instead of hemorrhaging out of the country, how many manufacturing complexes and how much infrastructure can be build domestically.

Cruz is so hated by independents

Unfortunately, I have to agree. Cruz can go pound sand.

I know what my experience with Cruz supporters was. The instant that I announced that I liked Trump, the insults, the comments about being a cultist, and the amazing condescension was CONSTANT for at least three months before I personally had anything negative to say.

That was my experience too. Only I was still supporting both Trump and Cruz at the time. I didn't openly start to support Trump until Ted joined with Rubio at that one debate 4 weeks ago

My supposed sin was not hating Trump as much as they did. So they tried to read in to my comments things that were never said or implied.

Trumped praised Marco. Trump congratulated all those in the race. Ted mentioned Marco and no one else. Talk about class Beck. You lost. Be gracious..
