WASHINGTON — Republicans who started off viewing Donald Trump as an amusing sideshow are starting to fret that the real-estate billionaire is becoming the main event.
Since he defied skeptics and launched his presidential bid last month, Trump has rocketed in the polls, dominated media coverage and helped steer the debate on issues.
“I don’t know that he even knows how far he takes this,” former New York GOP Rep. Thomas Reynolds, who is close to GOP candidate and ex-Gov. George Pataki, told The Post. “He has the wherewithal . . . He has put together a pretty wholesale ground force in New Hampshire, and that has to be taken seriously.”

He will drop out and endorse Jeb.
If he were in the general election Hillary would get 70% The media has plenty of dirt on him. You think they are going to let him get away with claiming he has $900 billion when it's more like $200 million? He would be made a laughingstock of if he ran.
Calm down. My #1 at this point is Walker, but we are three weeks plus before the 1zt debate. A lot of things aren’t clear yet.
Someone needs to ask nickcarraway WHO THE HELL IS A CONSERVATIVE THESE DAYS? 99% of the politicians in D.C., in both Parties, are just political whores. The only true Conservatives I know are Sen. Cruz of Texas, Sen. Cotton of Arkansas, Sen. Mike Lee of Utah, Congressman Louie Gohmert of Texas and a few others; that’s it.
I do. :-)
I truly know his history......going waaaaaaaaaaaay back; including some of the skeletons.

And guess what? He has the money, and the people, to dig into your past and expose all of your skeletons in your closet. So, I’d be careful making statements like that.
"THE DONALD" isn't going to have me investigated and I have NO skeletons in my closets.
Any New Yorker who has paid the slightest bit of attention, over the year, knows about many of his skeletons.And I'm more than certain that some digging would turn up far more and far worse stuff about him, than is generally well known.
I have NO skeletons in my closets

Perhaps YOU have many, so imagine that others must as well. That's called PROJECTION !

Uh huh...... So, you’re a New Yorker. That answers a lot of questions. How many years have you been psychologically indoctinated; living in that Socialist cesspool? I’m surprised that you’re not ashamed to admit that you live in that hell hole.
I'm curious. What is your position on illegal immigration?
I’m against it. I’m against amnesty.
So who do you support?
Didums, I'm more CONSERVATIVE than you are, have never lived in a section of any state that was or is a "hell hole", and anyone who has read THE N.Y. POST, no matter where on earth they reside, could know the same facts about "THE DONALD" as I do. OTOH, you can read the Brit DAILY MAIL and know it all too. Yet I see that you know very little about anything, so are at a big disadvantage. Pity that.........
“He is NOT a “self-made man”, which is what I was challenging with facts to back me up.”
“Pet” reporting in from the front. Trump is indeed a self made REAL man and I think you are eating your heart out with jealousy, lol.
You keep calling me “noob”. Yep, I’m a newbie here, and I’m always amused that you crusty, old farts who’ve been on this website a gazillion years, and don’t have a life outside of Free Republic, think you know more than anybody else. You call me illiterate; one of my turds has a higher IQ than you. Now, address me on this thread, or any other, all you want. They will go UNread. I have no time for you.
It was fully funded and under construction before he left office. Obama de-funded it, and shut down construction. That's what happened to the fence.
In recent Testimony of District Attorney John M. Morganelli before the House Subcommittee on immigration, Border, Security and Claims he stated:
“Unfortunately, the majority of illegal aliens who are here are engaged in criminal activity. Identity theft, use of fraudulent social security numbers and green cards, tax evasion, driving without licenses represent some of the crimes that are engaged in by the majority of illegal aliens on a daily basis merely to maintain and hide their illegal status.
In addition, violent crime and drug distribution and possession is also prevalent among illegal aliens. Over 25% of today’s federal prison population are illegal aliens. In some areas of the country, 12% of felonies, 25% of burglaries and 34% of thefts are committed by illegal aliens.”
•In Los Angeles, 95% of some 1,500 outstanding warrants for homicides are for illegal aliens. About 67% of the 17,000 outstanding fugitive felony warrants are for illegal aliens.
•There are currently over 400,000 unaccounted for illegal alien criminals with outstanding deportation orders. At least one fourth of these are hard core criminals.
•80,000 to 100,000 illegal aliens who have been convicted of serious crimes are walking the streets. Based on studies they will commit an average of 13 serious crimes per perpetrator.
•Illegal aliens are involved in criminal activities at a rate that is 2-5 times their representative proportion of the population.
•In 1980, our Federal and state facilities held fewer than 9,000 criminal aliens but at the end of 2003, approximately 267,000 illegal aliens were incarcerated in U.S. correctional facilities at a cost of about $6.8 billion per year.
•At least 4.5 million pounds of cocaine with a street value of at least $72 billion is smuggled across the southern border every year.
•56% of illegal aliens charged with a reentry offense had previously been convicted on at least 5 prior occasions.
•Illegal aliens charged with unlawful reentry had the most extensive criminal histories. 90% had been previously arrested. Of those with a prior arrest, 50% had been arrested for violent or drug-related felonies.
•Illegal aliens commit between 700,000 to 1,289,000 or more crimes per year.
•Illegal aliens commit at least 2,158 murders each year – a number that represents three times greater participation than their proportion of the population.
•Illegal alien sexual predators commit an estimated 130,909 sexual crimes each year.
•There may be as many as 240,000 illegal alien sex offenders circulating throughout America. Based on studies, they will commit an average of 8 sex crimes per perpetrator before being caught.
•Nearly 63% of illegal alien sex offenders had been deported on another offense prior to committing the sex crime.
•Only 2% of the illegal alien sex offenders in one study had no history of criminal behavior, beyond crossing the border illegally.
•In Operation Predator, ICE arrested and deported 6,085 illegal alien pedophiles. Some studies suggest each pedophile molests average of 148 children. If so, that could be as many as 900,580 victims.
•Nobody knows how big the Sex Slave problem is but it is enormous.
•The very brutal MS-13 gang has over 15,000 members and associates in at least 115 different cliques in 33 states.
•The overall financial impact of illegal alien crimes is estimated at between $14.4 and $81 billion or more per year. Factor in the crime as a result of the cocaine and other drugs being smuggled in and the number may reach $150 billion per year.
Where does Rubio come off berating Trump for citing FACTS? [[Congressman Steve King (R-IA) estimates that illegal alien drunk drivers kill 13 Americans every day — that’s a death toll of 4,745 per year.[4]
The 23 percent criminal traffic offenders figure is only part of the overall picture. According to the Center for Immigration Studies, another 23 percent, more than 43,000 illegal aliens, were convicted of drug offenses. The violent crime category of assault, robbery, sexual assault, and family offenses comes to 12 percent. The non-violent crime grouping of larceny, fraud, and burglary totaled seven percent, and on the list goes — equaling 100 percent of illegal aliens who have been through the criminal justice system and inflicted thousands to millions in cost per alien on the system, for issues having nothing to do with their illegal entry into the country]]
