as long as [bleep] keeps him going up in the polls....... ...or as long as his followers don't refuse to participate in the process when it doesn't. We've had a problem with that in the past. Trump will turn out the vote like no other GOP candidate. Then he will have no problem in the primaries. He hasn't yet. And if you're a Cruz supporter you should hope he doesn't. If Cruz is genuinely an anti establishment candidate, the establishment will start wiping mud in his face as soon as Trump is no longer the #1 threat. Then you haven't been paying attention. The establishment has been out to destroy him long before Trump was a candidate. Before him, Cruz was public enemy #1.

Trump could reach the same objectives without coming across as an a-hole. Apparently he is not capable of sitting back a little and planning a less hostile strategy. He's leading the polls. Why would he choose to change his strategy? Whatever else you might think about Trump, he didn't end up with 10 billion dollars by making bad decisions. Ok, so he's a billionaire. That doesn't mean he's ready to be the president. Is he gonna go into a tirade every time someone else disagrees with him? World leaders gonna be quaking in their boots at the for fear of Trumps insults?  Yeah I can see it the leaders of Russia, Israel, North Korea, Iran and numerous others will be shaking in their boots.  GW

That means that Cruz may has been successful in his Texas campaign, but he's never had the nation's propaganda machine working to scuttle his chances.

Yeah. Nice try. Trump's already trashed her to. All is fair in love and politics. They all buy beers after the debates. If he is one of the contenders for the POTUS, and he asks her, she'll say Yes.

Trump hasn't had ANY propaganda machine working against him...yet. That was all I have been saying this entire time. Honest question. Why do you think the liberal MSM has basically remained silent concerning Trump?

Just my opinion, but sure looks to me like everyone's wiling to overlook Trumps behavior and anything else because he sticks it to the establishment. I'm not buying that he's the best candidate for the job of President of the United States.
I sincerely hope this shakes out in a year. You better hope not. Trump is the first candidate who has ever had any success at backing down the established political machine,....and the political machine in this country doesn't give a damn about the people. In fact, it's been getting more and more hostile to the will of the people. Nobody else running for President has the ability to take on the political machine because they depend on the political machine to finance their campaign. If that's not enough to make the light bulb come on,...well,...you're going to get the government that you deserve. So you think Ted Cruz represent the establishment? Stop drinking the Trump coolaid long enough to look at some of the other candidates. It damned sure aint Trump or nobody. You people are pizzin' me off. It sure as hell isn't going to be Cruz. Outside of TX, he's not well liked....because he's a politician.

He hasn't yet. And if you're a Cruz supporter you should hope he doesn't.
If Cruz is genuinely an anti establishment candidate, the establishment will start wiping mud in his face as soon as Trump is no longer the #1 threat. I am a Trump supporter, and a Cruz supporter and whoever is most conservative next after they're gone supporter. That's why the "take my football and go home" herd pisses me off so much. We have to accept reality along the way. Most of the Trump supporters have no issue with letting this primary play out. It's the anti-Trumpers that seem to have their pink panties in a wad.

Why do you think the liberal MSM has basically remained silent concerning Trump? The MSM announced Trump's demise long ago, but folks did not listen. The simple reason they are currently silent is.....they are dumbfounded because they no longer control the narrative. Wake up.

I told myself that I wasn't gonna get into this again. But honestly, some of you really need to wake up. Do you not pay attention to anyone other than your Great and Glorious Donald Trump? UGH!
