    I'm still waiting for the Trump train to "derail"...... as if guys like Cruz and Kasich stand a better chance to energize, mobilize and bring out the swing voter, blue collar, independens, Reagan Democrats, "Evangelicals", unemployed and those who have been screwed by bad foreign business deals as their jobs were "outsourced" overseas or south of the border. Cruz is a nasal twanged rigid ULTRA CONSERVATIVE with the charisma of an undertaker who can't speak more than 20 seconds without trying to impress us about what he knows about "the Constitution".

    Imho- There are just TOO MANY Americans who are convinced Trump is the guy who will demand to see asses and elbows, get things done
    against the LEFT'S agenda....and THEY will stay home if the GOP tries and screw Trump out of the nomination.

    Trump has THE GOP by the balls and they should/soon smarten up and stand behind him if he remains the CLEAR leader.

    Not to mention another "little detail" like having the balls to reiterate and making it one of his main policies to literally build a wall to help protect and secure our damaging southern border not only to keep hordes of unknowns crossing the border- but just as importantly drastically halting the flow of DRUGS into our country which is turning pristine little towns into zombie land of the children.

    Wake up and get on board.....imho- it's Trump or at least four years of a weak left-leaning American style Angela Merkel. Imo

    Cruz is a good man, so is Kasich (and Rubio).....but (imo) they won't and don't have the balls to go after Hillary like Trump will.


    And all those polls who CURRENTLY have Trump losing to Hillary in the general election aren't worth much more than a sheet of toilet paper because in the words of Trump: (bless his heart):
    "I haven't even begun on Hillary yet".


    By the way....I could be wrong, but Trump, is still the only GOP candidate who has more than once said:
    "if the govt does their job, she may not be even able to run". (for Prez)

    IMO Cruz will now inherit the majority of Rubio's supporters. And if Kasich drops out in all likelihood his also which would pretty much give him the nomination IMHO. My only regret though is if that happens I'm going to miss hearing Trump rip Hilary a new asshole because you know he would have thrown EVERYTHING at her. And I just don't see Cruz going down that avenue.

    The media will create 1001 narratives between now and November to keep things as interesting as possible. The bottom line is that the only thing that matters in the general election is the electoral map. If you go back to 2012 the GOP to defeat Hillary will need to flip 63 electoral votes. The key states that will be looked at in order to do this are Florida, Michigan and Ohio which account for you guessed it 63 votes. Without those states the GOP has absolutely no chance. Now regardless about how you feel about him if you don't want Hillary to win who has the best chance to win those states? Trump murdered Cruz in Florida and Ohio and won by double digits in Michigan. As I've tried to say these elections boil down to simple math.

    Bingo! And Trump will continue to hammer home how the Democrats and Republicans (including Congressman/Gov Kasich) just didn't do enough to prevent jobs from those rust belt/ midwest states from being exported.

    Remember how Reagan "bargained" with the Russians? lol...
    ..and all of the resulting benefits of "The Star Wars" (SDI) program which also created and advanced technology benefitting the average American?


    Trump!

    Given the map beating Hillary is a tremendous uphill battle. That's why I laugh at these National Polls. It's very simple. Florida, Ohio and Michigan with Florida being the biggest key but the other two states being needed as well. The rest of the map you could most likely color in red and blue right now and it won't change except for maybe a couple of smaller states.

    500 billion $ trade deficit with China, and probably upwards of 100 billion losing to Mexico and Vietnam combined, not to mention the billions Bill Clinton- George Dubya- Obama have sent to uncooperative phony "friends" like Saudia Arabia, Pakistan, ect......

    I could be wrong, but I believe a "Trump Presidency" will do a much better job of holding their feet to the fire (of course!) and curtailing so much "aid" until THEY SHOW US more than the usual charade/masquerade.....I've heard him say months ago when asked or told that "we" need their "help"....
    He simple emphasised:
    "look, we can do what we need to do WITHOUT THEM if we need to".

    Refreshingly simply brilliant, succinct and accurate......IMO.

    The continued screeching voice I have to hear from Hillary Clinton when she's on television is just too much too take. I had two questions for her last night after watching the speech. 1) What the hell are you so bitter and angry about? She just swept every contest and she's on stage with this angry face acting more like a teacher scolding an unruly classroom than a winning candidate. 2) If Obama has been so wonderful and set this country on such a wonderful path explain to me why you need to make America whole again? Also, why did you spend most of a victory speech pretty much talking about how everything in the country is crap? The woman is ridiculous yet her followers cheer with glee no matter what she says or does.

    I know, it stings when one measley poster doesn't march in lockstep while you are currently being proven wrong.

    Think it over ... and don't be ashamed or embarrassed.
    It's all good....all in civil discourse.

    She's an abomination being protected by an extremely liberal media and boosted by a completely crooked DNC. That's why I said poor Bernie actually thought this was a race. Granted he had no chance anyway but Hillary was going to be the democrat choice as soon as she decided to run. The rest has been a dog and pony show with that other piece of trash Wasserman- Shultz leading the way.

    ...still cannot believe our 2 choices may end up being Trump and Clinton...and I thought the 2008/2012 election choices were terrible.

    ...This speaks volumes as to how fucked up and misguided this country is.
