One might say that the Dems and Media are BULLYING Trump.

I thought that ‘they’ said BULLYING was ‘illegal’ ?

The Republicans too, except Cruz.

Sorry Joanne, but Trump is BETTER PREPARED to run for President than anyone else, with the possible exception of Cruz.

The rest of the field is PATHETIC. They attack Trump because he has a problem a problem with the invasion of Illegals, but they are now his BEST FRIEND...after seeing their poll numbers PLUMMET because Trump is better in tune with Americans than they are.

Sorry, but this is now Trump’s to lose...and he doesn’t appear to be planning on losing.

While I’m Trump’s no where near the top of my list. I don’t think he is any worse of a deal than most of the rest. Is he really likely to do worse given the mess all those “tolerant” and “diverse” and “hopeful’ politicians have given us? The one thing he would give us is someone not owned by anyone now that means he could morph into a Bloomberg though I doubt it. The reason Trump is taking the heat is because he is a real threat to the unseen system as are any who have enough money or are principled enough not to be bought. The more I think about it I’d enjoy watching Trump address the state of the union. I’d also enjoy him talking to the media and meeting with Congress. I’m sure I wouldn’t agree with a lot of what he might do but the way its been even when we do get a GOP President and Congress we still get screwed. If Trump can run this gauntlet and survive I’d vote for him especially if he chose a good VP.

The GOPe thinks they need to court Latinos....

Not really. That’s just the line they feed us while they are doing the bidding of the Cheap Labor Express bosses.

It goes without consideration, I guess. In public schools (liberal conclaves) kids/students are told and lectured to not bully.

If they were able to settle it out on the playground, there would be a problem, but less of a problem than what we have now. I digress

The fact is that teachers ARE allowed to bully. It adds to the resentment among kids, who do not like to be imprisoned, demeaned and ridiculed. They turn the resentment toward each other.

The authorities are allowed to bully in an oppressive, liberal (totalitarian)society.

BTW, the cultural model is ‘Bells of St Marys’. Please check it out. Honest to God Catholic nuns encouraging boys to be men, the kind who fought to defeat hitler and to take care of their families.

Smart and successful people often have smart and successful children.

It’s genetics and upbringing.

I wasn’t trying to back you down from your idea. I was expressing my own opinion.

And, as to your “name anyone” - I would take that “son [of a Cuban refugee] who makes it big in Law and State government” any day of the week.

He is not there yet and I am still not convinced he really wants the job. Trump is doing great things by bringing these subjects up and making the politicians and media talk about them, Rush said today that DiFi spoke out against sanctuary cities, which I don’t think she would have done if it weren’t for Trump. I do not think anybody would be talking about immigration at all this election if it were not for Trump. I am glad he is running right now and intend to enjoy the show.

The “Washington Cartel” (includes Krauthammer) is on the wrong side.

You are right about Trump. He is go getter, a natural negotiator, successful at everything he puts his mind to, is a winner (according to Gen. Patton, “America loves winners”), and hates to lose at anything.

What’s not to like?

Americans do not like losers and they love winners. They will not go for Jeb

Conservatives want a leader someone they can trust with their beloved country while they are out working

Kevin instructs that conservative is a way of life a proven set of tenets while everything else is ideology

Conservatives don’t care if their leader is liberal as long as he or she can make it so that they can enjoy their pursuit of happiness and get back to work for their family their kids and their legacy

GOP will be shocked at how trump puts them away and after what a job tgey did after mov elections

Theyah fiyahd
