There is no way on this side of hell that I go to the polls for J. Bush......ain't going to happen.....
Outlier Poll I believe.
But time will tell. RCP has Trump at about 18%.
What is really going to be interesting is watching the polls after the debates begin.
I agree. Reagan gave us Scalia, but he also gave us Kennedy. Seems to me that it is much, much more common for a Republican appointee to begin siding with the leftists on the SC than it is for Democrat appointees to make decisions that benefit moderates or conservatives. IMHO this is because leftists tend to be unyielding ideologues. When is the last time Ginsburg made a decision that upset the left?
I think the current support for trump is that he’s shining a huge spotlight on the issue. But yes, he needs to produce comprehensive plans on how he can solve the problem when more experienced politicians who can build a consensus have failed.
Has nothing to do with Trump or Hillary...he’s simply the one at the head of “the movement” currently because he’s got the stage...He’s doing what he’s suppose to be doing which is to get the public engaged.....many many others are working behind the scenes to that end....Candidates will be positioned accordingly....16 in all to play this all the way to the Whitehouse!
Have to look at the big picture....we’re watching the line up and the players as they move through their various paces as they’re coming to the gate.....the debates will signal the race is on...the stands need to be full, public engaged...Trumps certainly bringing them in!
I think Trump is just as upset over “the place” the US is on the World Stage and here at home as any are....he’s a businessman and sees what’s happening on both fronts....because he’s in it to do business and make deals....I respect his “view” of what he sees...he’s right.
Not to worry about Cruz....he’s working it in Washington....don’t underestimate the plan ...it’s working thus far...despite some hurdles anticipated.
I know! The Leftist Justices never side on the right. I’m beginning to think that DC does something to people. Also I wonder if the Left has so much access to confidential data, that they can blackmail. Something is very weird.
“The Leftist Justices never side on the right.”
I think it’s partially because the Republicans and Democrats use different criteria when choosing potential nominees. The Republicans try to choose people they think are going to evaluate cases based on strict Constitutional guidelines - not ideology. They go out of their way to find people who will be thought of as ‘intellectually’ acceptable by the left. The Democrats, on the other hand, go for those nominees who won’t be restricted by a strict interpretation of the Constitution, and who are clearly ideologically driven.
IMHO the results are obvious and expected.
Hillary does not have her own ability to put together a good campaign and yes, does appear to be un-liked.
She still has a D in front of her name - gets her every retired person by default, a majority of college students, the minority votes. She’ll also get those who remember the Clinton days as good days and every big government suckling teet out there.
Her friends and husband both have to work this out.
There’s no actual facts, only Trump and words. Why take his words seriously now and forget or disregard what he’s done in the pastor his statements? He’s good at working a deal in and can’t be trusted.
The media will push Hillary despite all the baggage, they’ve already been paid to do so.
The media will also push Bush, we can see that with that 14% garbage.
Bush gets it, Trump goes third party, Clinton wins due to Perot 2.0 .
Ted Cruz, Fiorina, Walker are my current trusted picks.
