He’d get a standing ovation in any bar or coffee shop out here in flyover country.
You know what... (( IF )) you were a very connected high power businessman AND you were elected President..
YOU could make a boatload of money.. during and after your term of office..
By all kinds of means... and receive a lot of gratitude by those you place in HIGH Office during your term...
Helping in real estate, foreign, and other transactions..
BUT THEN; Which treasonous bastard would be that GREEDY.?.. NAH..
Trump is a pompous blowhard, but he talks a good talk on the economy and on jobs.
Trump was a democrat from 2001 through 2009, that is an interesting history for a 69 year old man who now wants to own the republicanc party.
Or at least wants to head it, as it tries to defeat the wife of Trump’s favorite president, and a woman that he has supported.
He's a media creation. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.
-32% popularity. I doubt it. But the media will do everything to make it look like it.
And he might.
Most folks who vote are not party loyalists.
Most will vote for the guy who expresses the simple precepts that tickles their trigger.
You are pushing for a pro-abortion guy, to take over the pro-life party.
You Trump people just flat out don’t care.
He is considered unsupportable by 66% of the primary voters.
No one else comes close to being so little respected.
Trump, sort of like early Rush, saying what many others are thinking, but are afraid to say, or they have no microphone.
Trump still needs to develop well thought out positions and then become even louder. But he’s discussing the right issues.
“He is considered unsupportable by 66% of the primary voters.”
First of all, he’s pro-life. He’s also pro-America... Unless Walker or Cruse can break out, Trump might be our best hope.
And regarding the 66% number, where did you dig that up? Clearly it’s not true...
Not in a million years would I vote for Trump.
Under normal circumstance I would never consider someone like Trump.
However, we no longer live in a Free Republic and it may require a rascal to rescue us.
Britain once had to turn to a rascal to save itself.
If Jeb! is our nominee I think we are finished even if he wins.
I’m all in for Cruz at this point but I will take Trump over Jeb! if it comes down to that bizarre choice.
In the end, I will pull the lever for whoever runs against Hillary, even if that person is Jeb! :-/
I must say that day by day I warm up a tiny bit more for Trump. I think it is because I long for someone to just stand up and speak the truth. I’m tired of wimps that you can’t depend on.... worthless pols like Boehner...[spit!]
First off, he is NOT prolife, not even close.
What you hear is him saying “I am pro-life” and claiming that in 2011, at age 65, just as he was preparing to run for president as a republican, that he switched from pro-choice, to pro-life.
But Trump is on tape revealing that he not only disagrees with the GOP platform of no exceptions for rape and incest, but that he is OK with early abortions, it is just late term abortions that he is against.
Regarding the 66% that you say is “Clearly its not true...”
“WASHINGTON — You’ve seen the polls that measure Republican voters first choice for the party’s 2016 presidential nomination. But there’s another measure of public perception — this one on the negative side — with pollsters asking voters to list candidates they could not see supporting.
Pollsters for NBC News/Wall Street Journal asked that very question of GOP primary voters”
“To the question of which candidates could you not see voting for, Jindal was selected by just 28 percent of those polled.
That’s far lower than real estate mogul Donald Trump’s, chosen by 66 percent of voters as definitely not their candidate, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, selected by 55 percent and Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., the non-choice of 49 percent.”
A quote in which Reagan complained, "I didn't leave the Democratic Party. The party left me.''
Donald Trump, the 2016 reissue of Archie Bunker, after he's "moved on up".
“Not in a million years would I vote for Trump.”
I would, depending on what the choice was. And I would submit that you would too... again, depending on the choice given.
