Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump says America will be glad if he's the president next time the nation is attacked.
"If we are attacked, somebody attacks us, wouldn't you rather have Trump as president if we're attacked?" he said at a rally in Milford, N.H. "We'll beat the shit out of them."
He added that America needs to stop "playing games."
"We've become the policemen to the entire world," he said. "We take care of the world. They pay us peanuts."

Very clever. Goldman Sachs, Citi and the Hedge fund boys are in New York..but Teddy hates those New York values doesn’t he
How can you rationalize or equivocate this dirty trick. If Carson wanted his votes to go to Cruz he would have announced it. Say a prayer tonight and ask the Lord's if it was right.
he may not have a photographic memory, he has great verbal memory, which is why he did so well in the debate.
I had a professor with the same skill. Really cool.
That’s cool./s Trump may not be president until 2017 so how long will it take to tweet in an attack to those in hiding or coming over the border this summer?
You gonna damn a couple hundred thousand Mexican males with the name?
Ever ponder the distinction between a zealot and a fanatic?
But Cruz embellished the ‘breaking information’, to make it sound like Carson was leaving.
For one who is supposedly not part of the establishment, he sure jumped on something from the establishment media without checking. A simple call to Carson would’ve been easy. Carson’s wife was also present at one of the caucuses, and disputed what the Cruz spokesperson was spreading. Once she did that, word could’ve gotten to all of the Cruz campaign to stop that tactic - if they had wanted to.
Cruz did apologize - because he was caught. Too little, too late to help Dr. Carson.
After reading these posts, I understand why the odds makers are making Hillary the clear favorite to be the next POTUS. Only some serious medical issue will stop her from getting the nomination. in the general election she will have the demographics on her side against our fractured opposition as demonstrated above.
I grew up with a sailor. So I know you are kidding or don’t have a clue about sailors.

If Trump have won in Iowa as he told us he would for sure, all the Trumpettes would be lecturing us on how its only winning that counts and everything else is excuses.
Just as their lord and master preaches down to us in tweets and his MSM call in interviews, and online polls.
Now we hear TRump making similar excuses that he used to ridicule.
Trumpies had their narratives ready for any outcome in Iowa:
IF TRUMP HAD WON: BWAHAHAHA!! This is YUUUGE. Donald is going to RUN THE TABLE now and SWEEP every primary!! If you think this is big now, just wait til NH!!! Cruz has only himself to blame for tonight — if he hadn’t attacked The Donald his numbers wouldn’t have tanked! Stick a fork in him, he’s DONE! There is still time for Ted Cruz to get a spot as Trump’s AG if he drops out now and begs Donald for forgiveness!
IF RUBIO BEAT TRUMP: Like hell he did. This election was STOLEN by the GOPE, blame and simple. The fix was in. Rubio is the anointed candidate of the GOPE and they pulled every trick in the book to get their open borders, chamber of commerce shrill in. The GOPE had decided months ago that Rubio would “win” Iowa and produced that result tonight to make their candidate the “frontrunner”. I’m writing in TRUMP if Rubio is the nominee!!!
IF CRUZ BEAT TRUMP: Don’t mean nuthin. Bunch of hayseed hicks with their screwed up process. Iowa is full of so-cons who want Jesus for President and think they’re voting for pastor. The winner of the Iowa caucus is never the nominee, just look at Huckabee and Santorum. NH has a real election and I can’t wait for them to rebuke the morons in Iowa and for Trump to win BIG in all the other contests!!
Can you please post that with a working link, or forward the email? thanks
That dirty trick caused about 20% of the Carson voters to move over to Cruz rather than waste their vote on someone who was ending his campaign, according to Cruz. That was the difference between Cruz’s total and Trump’s total. Otherwise, Trump wins, and the entry polls were correct. I must say begrudgingly, it was a brilliant political dirty trick; hard to say which was best-—the mailer, Beck’s photoshopped phony Tweet, forgetting to note to the FEC that his wife’s employer, Goldman Sachs, and chief beneficiary of her previous employer’s (the Fed Govt) massive transfer of money to the NY Banks in 2008 gave Cruz a million dollars and doggone it the Ivy League brainiac just forgot. Kinda like he forgot he was a Canadian citizen. He just plain forgot.

Just like a trumpeteer to just make crap up.
Cruz’s people ran with a CNN story, perhaps Carson should stop whining and playing the victim and learn about social media if he wants to play in the big leagues.
Colonel_Flagg, I salute you. That was a GOOD one.....
Cruz is a low life POS to do what he did and if you don’t realize that then you are no better than a Clinton. Why are you even on FR?
Well then it's certainly convenient you pulled that 20% figure out of thin air, as no one will ever know what, if any, impact Cruz's tweet about CNN's statement made.
Now, if Cruz had won by 30%, how much of Cruz's lead would you attribute CNN's error? [Hint: 30% of Carson's voters]
What actually happened was that 20% of Carson's voters went over to Trump, who would have lost convincingly to Rubio otherwise. Now see, I can make stuff up, too.
Your post is incredible given the time that you responded.
You forgot how they would have said that Trump brought FNC and Kelly to their knees by cutting hiding from this debate(Megyn Kelly) , which Cruz had the guts to show up for, and got beat up on and still won.
Who really won??
Cruz
FNC
Unfortunately Rubio,
he claims that Cruz is lying when he says that Rubio is for amnesty.
Serious question:
Why is the open borders group Club for Growth giving Cruz $705,000?
That's very true. They would have patted Trump on the back for "courageously" boycotting the last debate and gloated that Trump's win now makes the media irrelevant in this country and proves what a joke the debates are.
They also would have likely filled threads with "speculation" that Cruz voters switched to Trump EN MASSE over the past week (even if Trump had only beaten Cruz by 1%) because he hadn't "cleared up" the natural born citizenship issue and "there is legitimate concern whether Cruz can actually be sworn in if he won the Presidency", and that the Iowa caucus results are "living proof" that Cruz cannot win the general election if he's the nominee.
And again, the Trumpies would out be bombarding these boards with "evidence" of "vote fraud" and screaming that the "GOPE STOLE IOWA!!!" in any scenario where he lost to Rubio.
Saw a responding tweet to Trump on Twitter:
“Hey Loser. How is the Losing going?”
LoL!
