freepersup checking in boss-

Trump rally: Fountain Hills, AZ. Sheriff Joe Arpiao’s hometown.

It’s the one where the Soros goombahs locked themselves to their cars with chains and bicycle locks, and used their cars to block the vehicle routes into the venue.

All of a sudden she shows off shirt with F*^+ Trump on it and out she went to a thousand media camera flashbulbs...

Hmmm...do you think that was maybe a proposition?

It was a fantastic rally, high energy!!

I liked it when Trump played the role of the ‘presidential demeanor’ candidate...

Presidential demeanor. Big deal. Obama has presidential demeanor, Ted Cruz has presidential demeanor, John Kasich is just plain demented...!

This is cool. I think what we should is maybe run some kind of thread on this.

You’re a CT guy, so you’ll appreciate this. There’s a web of loosely connected relatives and friends who stay connected through one of my relatives, who for his lifetime has been involved in politics, including local office. He and many of his nearby peers were absolutely 100% anti-Trump. But Trump won them over today. How? Anyone who would go to Waterbury at 1030AM on a Saturday and then next stop Bridgeport must be really, really dedicated to their cause!

Yes, I loved that part, had never seen it before!

Mr. Trump has a fantastic sense of humor, and you can tell that it is all so genuine; no rehearsed or canned lines.

“I believe the dem crossover to Mr Trump will be epic.”

I do to. That is the reason I give Donald a good chance to carry New York.

FOX News Channel has not yet come to the reality that Ted Cruz is toast. Rupert Murdoch & Roger Ailes must both be stoned on reefer. The FNC saving grace is Greta, O’Reilly, Hannity, Watters, and even Kelly who brought forth the olive branch to the Donald when she saw the Cruz remarks about NY values.....which has literally killed any chance he ever had to become the GOP POTUS nominee.

Ailes is asleep at the wheel. Ailes could right his wrong...by firing Neil Cavuto, who is hateful of Donald J. Trump. The Cavuto shows have zero objectivity. Cavuto belongs with Ted Cruz, his nutcase Dad & the real lunatic, Glenn beck!!! Go Figure!!!

I feel the same as you do. I was all for Cruz early on but overtime became a big Trump supporter. Now I have come to detest Cruz.

How true! Waterbury and Bridgeport are not exactly “nice” CT towns. Lot of poverty, welfare and of course heavily Democratic. Not friendly areas for a Republican presidential candidate. I applaud Trump for consistently venturing into the belly of the beast. He wants to be president of all the people and that should count for a lot.

And I hear Cruz is back to his antics up in Maine today - trying to steal delegates he didn't win.

Trump is up in Bridgeport NOW!

Mama is basically a barn cat. Except at times like this. Then she’s stays as close as she can.
