Well, he didn't become a billionaire by being an idiot

He became one running Casinos. Casinos will by making the odds in favor of the house with not much morality in it. Feel as Lucky now?

I think pulling out all stops for anyone at this EARLY time is a little much actually I think it's way too much. It's tossing away all bargaining power and saying do as you will.

I have a gut feeling that sometime around the first or second primaries the Media whom BTW has been playing Br'er Rabbit all along covering Trump will play their hand as well as a few manipulators inside the GOP-E taking Trump and Cruz if he's not careful out of the running by simple association.

I've posted this before on other threads but I'll post it again. IF the media meaning the liberal news networks and GOP-E media meaning FOX News considered Trump such a big threat to their DEM candidate or the GOP-E their second choice they would pull the coverage plug on him. Trump would be last months news.

This tactic of silencing by non coverage has been done consistently since 1988 against Conservatives running. BTW can anyone say whom Rove is backing? What about good old Mitts huh?

Be very cautious. Scrutinize all of them and then scrutinize who all is running again. Look at their past endorsements and donations. Look at their voting records. Look at who is supporting them. Most important is go through what they are saying with a fine tooth comb. Now is the time to do that. This is not yet the time for endorsements. A favorite maybe. Right now I'm leaning toward Cruz. I don't see a close second in the GOP I feel I can trust.

This is the time for examining and observing candidates. Trump just suddenly found his Conservative religion I'll call it and the networks have been pushing exposure for Trump for several years getting his name out in the public light like his reality show. I am suspicious. Be careful. Watch, Listen, Sit Back and Wait. The GOP-E is dirty. So I ask are we being played for suckers by a deal done made?

I may be wrong. But I had "W", McCain, and Romney pegged for what they were before the primaries were well underway. Trump is no Reagan. Reagan was a proven mainly Conservative Republican and a far more consistent one at that. His biggest mistake? GHW Bush as his running mate. I doubt seriously if Trump gets the nod a Conservative will be on the ticket. But I don't think Trump will be on the general ticket at all.

No he didn't.

Casinos are a very small part of his holdings.

There is a serious flaw in your theory. A businessman who made his money building real things in the main street economy (versus shuffling paper on wall street) could never have succeeded by being a fiscal liberal, meaning distribute the wealth of the hard working to those who hardly work.

Then you add Trump’s unabashed nationalism, which no candidate since Reagan has preached, is satisfying the hunger in the populace is why he is winning by double digits everywhere in a giant field of 17.

As for social conservatism, at age nearing 70, almost all rational people morph conservative. Killing unborn life becomes seriously objectionable since your own life is nearing the end. And on the gay issue, Trump has lived his whole life as the red blooded American hetero male.
