“1. Who was your choice before Trump jumped in?
2. Who would be your choice if Trump drops out?”

I wasn’t excited about anyone and had no first choice. All the others are career politicians and don’t/won’t speak the truth, tap-dance around issues, and parse every answer. They can’t help it; it’s what they do as politicians.

Jindal has taken some good stands. I like Cruz pretty well. Trouble with him is that he’s SO smart, the Low Info Voters won’t “get it” — sadly. Carli has been bold. Walker and Perry are dufuses (dufi?). Huckabee and Santorum — just ewwww; sleaze oozes from them.

If Trump goes away, probably I’m with Cruz.

Speaking of photos, has anybody heard the disgusting story of Bill Clinton giving DeBlasio’s new press secretary a note that simply had his hotel room number on it? As Mark Simone pointed out, the day before this story broke, Clinton made a big deal of walking around with his grandkid in some public park in NYC. Obviously, trying to massage the story - loving granddad, et al.

His wife is absolutely gorgeous. She would bring back some class as the First Lady. She does look to be quite a bit younger than he is, but, I can just imagine how many girls and women would want to be fashionable as she is. Unlike the ugly Wookie who now squats in the WH.

The first thing Trump should do is fire everybody in our state department.

Totalitarian leftist thugs can’t believe anyone has the guts to publicly gore their sacred cows. They are accustomed to cowed RINOs like Boehner. Look for false charges from Obama Justice Dept or outright violence.

Donald Trump doesn’t need the presidency. With a multibillion-dollar empire, he’ll be just fine without it. That has liberated him to say and do things that may be unconventional and not particularly graceful, but which resonate strongly with an electorate parched for truth — and for the battle for the future.

The other candidates should take note: Running as if you have nothing to lose may, in fact, be the way to win.

He has gotten successful by taking risks. Can we afford these types of risks in DC?

Tell me...where does Trump stand on the other issues?

Which type of judge will he appoint to the SC?

What are his responses to the most recent SCOTUS decisions?

Instead of blasting Perry or the HuffPost, why not address the shooting in TN?

Other than bombing oil fields and saying that Persians are shrewd negotiators, what is his foreign policy?

Or, do you support Trump just based on talking points? Just curious.

Questions for you or any other Trump fan:

1. Who was your choice before Trump jumped in?

2. Who would be your choice if Trump drops out?

Ted Cruz

Ted Cruz

The Colorado primary is next June. If Ted Cruz is still in the race I will vote for him. Until then I intend to enjoy watching The Donald beat the snot out of the enemedia, the GOPe and the invading army of wetbacks.

And Jeb!

If I had the proportionate difference in $$$$$ between how dumb Jeff Klayman is and how brilliant he THINKS he is, I could retire to the French Riviera in my 200 ft yacht and live happily ever after....while The Donald straightened things out here at home.

She does look to be quite a bit younger than he is,

**************

She is 45 thus ‘a bit younger’ as you say. He has five children, three by his first wife,
one by each of his last two.

He DID address the shootings in Tennessee. And he didn’t twist his hankie and “wonder” why such a nice young raghead yout would shoot up 2 infidel recruiting centers. He went right to the nub of the problem; Gun free zones....at a MILITARY installation!
Can you say, “Turd brained concept?!” Gun free military installations! That’s right up there with Moochelle’s FOOD FREE school cafeterias!

Unfortunately, it was Bush to blame for this policy.

The problem is this: we heard Cruz (who is my guy) come out in force against what happened in Chattanooga.

All I heard from Trump was about the IQ or Rick Perry and how the Huffington Post was unimportant. That is great...but WHERE does he stand on other issues?

Just because you didn’t see it ..doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.

Trump came out in force about gun free military zones and lack of intelligence

It is pretty clear to me that Trump has a definite opinion about Obama being a Muslim or Muslim sympathizer

Trump is no Reagan but even Reagan flip flopped on a number of key issues when running for President.

In my absolute honesty, I have reservations. Hell I have reservations about Cruz, and he’s my number 1. TPP on the first vote, and the dissembling on throwing away the treaty provisions of the Constitution.

What are TPA and TPP?
TPA stands for Trade Promotion Authority, also known as “fast track”. TPA is a process by which trade agreements are approved by Congress. Through TPA, Congress sets out up-front objectives for the Executive branch to achieve in free trade negotiations; in exchange for following those objectives, Congress agrees to hold an up-or-down vote on trade agreements without amendments. For the past 80 years, it has proven virtually impossible to negotiate free-trade agreements without the fast-track process.

TPP stands for Trans-Pacific Partnership. TPP is a specific trade agreement currently being negotiated by the United States and 11 other countries, including Canada, Japan, Australia, and New Zealand. China is not a negotiating partner. There is no final language on TPP because negotiations are still ongoing and have been since late 2009. Neither the Senate nor the House has voted yet on the TPP. There will be no vote on TPP until the negotiations are over and the final agreement is sent to Congress.
