But then again:

Women defy media narrative, love Trump at packed Michigan rally

Thousands of women — the very people the mainstream media says shouldn’t like Donald Trump — turned out to see the Republican frontrunner at a packed Michigan rally in Grand Rapids Monday night.

Multiple sources tell The American Mirror over 30,000 tickets were distributed for a venue that held less than 10,000 people.

We were on hand and talked to several women — including one sporting a “Hillary for Prison” t-shirt — about why they support Trump.​

Trump uses vulgar term to describe Clinton's 2008 presidential run

"She was going to beat Obama," Trump said of Clinton, speaking in Grand Rapids, Michigan. "... She was going to beat - she was favored to win - and she got schlonged. She lost."

"Schlong" is a Yiddish slang term for a man's genitals.​

Trump, the Republican presidential front-runner, wrote Tuesday night that the word means “beaten badly.”
He cited a National Public Radio journalist using the term in 2011, to describe Walter Mondale’s 1984 presidential campaign getting soundly defeated.
 
It's already destroyed...


“His compulsive boasting is evidence of insecurity. His unassuageable neediness suggests an aching hunger for others’ approval to ratify his self-admiration,” Will writes.

“His incessant announcements of his self-esteem indicate that he is not self-persuaded.”

Noting Trump’s recent platitudes for Russian President Vladimir Putin, he compares Trump’s actions to “a puppy’s insatiable eagerness to be petted.”​
 
Goodbye, 2015, the Year Before the Campaign Storm

As January draws near, the Republican candidates competing in the establishment lane are taking aim at one another. With four weeks until the Iowa caucuses and five until the New Hampshire primary, there is little time to spare. The candidates need to draw contrasts and pick up scraps of support, and they are doing their best to paint themselves as the best choice. At the same time, Mr. Trump is vowing to spend millions on television ads in the early states in the final weeks.​
 
Trump, Cruz on brink of epic clash

Donald Trump and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz are circling each other in the race for the Republican nomination and appear to be on the brink of an epic clash.

While the candidates have for months observed a kind of truce, party insiders believe that’s about to change — and many are speculating about just how explosive things will get.

Trump appears to be feeling the heat from Cruz, who now enjoys a small but significant polling lead in Iowa, which will hold the first nominating contest on Feb. 1.​
 
I stand with Trump due to his knowledge of the human nature. His legal & geographical education can be improved upon as time progresses but we need someone that can be blunt instead of beating around the "Politically Correct" bush for time on end without substantiating anything.
 
Truly amazing:

Trump Could Win It All
A new survey shows a sizable number of Democrats ready to defect from Hillary Clinton to Donald Trump.

Nearly 20 percent of likely Democratic voters say they'd cross sides and vote for Trump, while a small number, or 14 percent, of Republicans claim they'd vote for Clinton. When those groups were further broken down, a far higher percentage of the crossover Democrats contend they are "100 percent sure" of switching than the Republicans.​

Reading the article (and noting it was from a '916 self-proclaimed "likely voters"' which is an incredibly bad way to do d asurvey ) it suggests a 20% swing from Democrats to Trump, and a 14% Swing from Repbulicans to Clinton! (who knew that they favoured her in particular! ) So.. you're looking at a 6% swing in Trump's direction. However they've quoted the estimated error at 3.5% which means that even these statistics are meaningless!!!!

(and doubly so as your election system isn't actually based on getting the largest popular vote! so without analysis of individual electoral colleges)


Bottom line... anyone who read the headline or article has just wasted their time...... sigh
 
Reminds me of the "Revocation of independence" notice from 2000 - the one that announced that in view of your abject failure to elect a president and thereby govern yourselves her Brittanic Majesty Queen Elizabeth II was going to resume her sovereign duties (except for Florida, which was going to be returned to Spain).

I hope their Parliament does its job of keeping military authority out of her elderly hands, Lol. [emoji12]
 
Actually HRH Liz lived in a city that was being bombed nightly, and is old enough to remember it. Which means I'd be much happier with military authority being in her hands than those of some politico who feels they "have to do something" and has no experience of what that means for those on the ground.
 
I'm a huge Cruz supporter....but I think tonight signalled the beginning of the end for him. While he beat trump in facts and substance, Trump pulled out a 9/11 strawman and it won over the brainless masses.

Trump is the only candidate who I will not pull the lever for. I will write in Kim Jong Un if Trump is nominated, and I will cease to belong to the Republican party.
 
I also think that Cruz has hit a wall... he might be able to repair it?
For myself, I feel that Trump is the best candidate we have right now to fix the cruddy mess we have....
We need a Business Man who understands how to run a 'company" and make a profit.... and the government is nothing but an overgrown company that is wildly out of control.

as for the military issues, that is what every president has to do, they surround themselves with good advisors, and if they are smart, "unlike Obuma", they will listen to those advisors...

I think that Ben Carson would make a good overseer for the healthcare system...

and up until tonight, I was sort of hoping that Cruz would accept the #2 ticket with Trump.

JMOs, and everyone has their own....

the thing to remember is, when it comes down to election night, unless there is an overwhelming citizen majority in every state, the Electoral College can do what they damn well please... in fact, I have seen some of them vote totally opposite what their state's public voted for.

I think Cruz is a fake that patronizes the masses. Watch how he looks for a reaction to his words and then increases or changes his rhetoric to intensify the reaction. Trump don't care what ppl think and the like-minded will follow.
I agree with AZ.. Our candidate options ARE horrid but Trump is our best bet, giving what options we have. If he's nominated then I'll certainly be voting for him. Probably go register today
