TRUMP getting his support from racists
That charge has already been leveled, by a "friend" of Senator Cruz.

The biggest surprise of the presidential election so far is the emergence and persistent strength of Donald Trump. Although Ben Carson is remarkable in many respects, he is the latest iteration of a familiar figure in Republican primary campaigns: the favored candidate of conservative evangelicals.
By contrast, Mr. Trump is the staunchest champion of the white working class that American politics has seen in decades.
Thanks to a recently released survey, a collaboration between the Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI) and the Brookings Institution, we can now identify with much greater precision the sources of Mr. Trump's support and the sentiments of his supporters.
Among Republicans and Republican-leaning independents, 39% of the white working class backs Mr. Trump, twice his share of white college-educated voters. Fifty-five percent of his supporters are white working class, compared with 35% for the rest of the Republican field and only 32% for Mr. Carson.

The kids are not there anymore...they're in Texas.
I'm so glad that you had a good time in Chicago! Where did you eat?
Trump hotel double upgrade thru a clearinghouse I use
Incredible room
Giordanas on Rush...pizza...heavy.....heavy....cheese 1.5” thick
It was my middle boy and I....he’s 13 now....he wanted Pizza
And we shopped for Mommy
That Burberry store that looks like a bottle of perfume or nail polish could put me in the poor house
People were very friendly
Being a former Manhattanite I was ignorant of the other big town
Very pleasantly surprised
It’s always been Annette’s big town since her career chick days before my charms lured her into momism
Btw my number two daughter returned from Brooklyn today
She’s done
She’s figured we’re all not so bad after all
Lol....everyone has to have Bright Lights Big City period in their life
I had two.....London as well though more brief
In my day London had no tall building except the Telecom tower and one other
Now I look at the City area and it looks like Houston
Happy your girl is home for good....especially for the holidays:)
The WSJ is having a hard time dealing with it.
White, graduate degree, not “working classâ€, and I’m for Trump!
...........................................................
White, Female, Ivy League, retired Boss-Lady, and I’m for Trump.
Great!!!
HA! GREAT graphic, Jane!!
Bravo!
Trump’s no Reagan and to try to make that distinction is either wholly ignorant of or insulting to Reagan. Reagan is a great man. Trump’s a fake.
............................................................
A Fake? Says you. Seems the MAJORITY of Republican voters disagree with you along with increasing evidence of Trump support among Democrats and other groups traditionally Democrat. I see REAGAN TIMES as that is exactly what happened with FORMER DEMOCRAT REAGAN.
The Times make the men! We need a Trump RIGHT NOW. Some common sense at the helm just might keep our ship of state off the rocks. Trump is the ONLY one of the candidates who is guided by Common Sense and Gut Instincts that are PURELY AMERICAN. I, and many, many others are SICK and TIRED of POLITICAL PROMISES that lead to nothing but MORE OF THE SAME OLD, SAME OLD SELLOUT! America doesn’t want another politician, it wants a RED, WHITE, and BLUE AMERICAN. Trump qualifies.
Woo hoo!!
These guys know that Trump WILL make America GREAT, again!
=-)

I’d suggest you learn to read with comprehension.......I said it sounded like Reagan’s TIME. As far as ignorant is concerned, well....if the shoe fits, wear it. Seems to be ABOUT your size. Cruz is a politician who sold himself out when he believed(or so he says) McConnell’s lies. He needs more seasoning in the REAL world. We need JOBS in OUR country, not everywhere else in the world benefiting from our shipping every job overseas. THE ECONOMY is #1 and TRUMP understands the ECONOMY. Cruz is a lawyer and knows nothing about the intricacies of economics and development.
It’s not my opinion, but proven fact. Reagan was a man of honor. Trump’s a serial trophy-wifer, known liar (er exaggerator) and NY Democrat.
........................................................
So Reagan was divorced from Jane Wyman to marry Nancy, he was also a California DEMOCRAT before he saw the light and became a Republican, AND he badly messed up a few times and had to apologize to the American people, who forgave him,........so WHAT are your OVERRIDING POINTS of difference about REAGAN’s superiority?????? I’m listening!
If elected, I will instruct my attorney general to hunt down anyone who ignores the federal do not call list prosecute them to the point of total bankrupcy if that is what it takes to make them honor the list.
