New Hampshire, ineligible voters line up before Trump scheduled to arrive.

Guess they don't read articles by Gabby Moron-jello.

Isn’t it unbelievable to you the lengths they are going to?

Have you ever seen anything like this?

Washington Examiner is pounding Trump every chance they get. I follow them on twitter and their hit jobs are nonstop.

You fight hardest against what you fear most.

Regardless of one’s leanings, to watch an incoming tide and say “there’s no tide” is just plain silly.

Might or might not amount to much down the road but it is a real phenomenon. Ignore it your peril.

OK, this is the last time I’m going to read ANY Trump articles linked by you. Not Walker either.

Using Jesse Ventura links to prove positive that Trump is a gadfly is beyond ridiculous. It only shows your ridiculous bias and blindness.

That’s nice - it still gives us some hope if enough young people are paying attention - they will become eligible to vote for their futures...

I'm updating the numbers later this weekend and posting them but as of last weekend, Trump had added 300,000 new Twitter followers in August alone (barely two weeks) which was almost as many new followers as all the other candidates combined picked up in the same period.

Growth of Twitter followers are a good measure of enthusiasm for a given campaign. I don't focus as much on the total number of followers but how many have signed up in a recent period.

Once August is done, I'll reset everything and start fresh on September 1.

In case you didn’t know it, Jindal placed Common Core into Louisiana public schools, and refused to have it removed; he is leaving the state in complete economic SHAMBLES (he has been running for president since the next day he won the governorship almost eight years ago). You talk about someone who “says what you want to hear”!!!!

What will have been won is this. If Trump continues to call out the disgrace which woven throughout the DC elites and continues to call out the equally disgraceful media for their lack of objectivity and complete abbrogation of their duties as watch dog of and for the citizenry, we will have taken steps to win back the country.

Trump is not my choice for nominee, I actually like Cruz and believe him to brilliant and a truly gifted communicator not to mention a true Conservitive. However unlike many here I will support whomever is the nominee because the very worst candidate we have is light yrs better for America than any Democrat.

Trump is valuable to us because he can and does say the things which need to be said and by doing so allows the others to also discuss them. One of the important things he has done is make public his disdain for the cancer which is eating us alive, the PC movement.

Trump is tough and unafraid anf after 7 yrs of the worst, weakest and untruthful president we have ever had, America is hungry for this type of a man.

Experts say there’s no question Jindal reversed his position on Common Core.

"Gov. Jindal has clearly flip-flopped on the issue. He went from singing the praises of Common Core to leading the charge for removing the standards in Louisiana. Because of Jindal, the state has made almost a complete U-turn on the standards," said James Shuls, a professor of education and policy at the University of Missouri in St. Louis.
http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2015/jun/08/bobby-jindal/bobby-jindal-change-position-common-core/

Bobby Jindal has done almost a complete 180 on Common Core, yet Trump is only at a 120 or thereabouts [he still believes in "choice" regarding infants conceived in rape/incest] on the issue of life.

We'll go with Bobby! Or Huckabee, Santorum, or Carson. For us, the life issue is a barometer, to gauge the genuineness and goodness of a man, especially in these days where the abortion business is [literally] being displayed in all of its gory details.

Yes, this is a pathetic post and article.

You’re not doing Scott Walker any favors.

Experts??? If you require experts to analyze a candidate, then something is desperately out of order.

Not so anyway. Two legislative sessions ago, when he still had his power, and some legislators were trying to get it removed, because there was a statewide hue and cry to have it removed, Jindal did not send ANYONE to the legislature, did not offer ANY amendments, did not raise his little finger to try to have it removed. He was out-of-state, campaigning for the presidency. He has NEVER led the charge.

I don’t use social media.
I am older than the ARPANET.
I have been watching all the newsposts that are fitting to spend the seconds for, and i am a Trump supporter.
