Donald Trump needs another big night tonight to stay on track to clinch the Republican presidential nomination by the end of the primaries. His political rivals, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Ohio Gov. John Kasich, say he’d get creamed in a general election — and a Trump nomination would all but guarantee a President Hillary Clinton
But a new George Washington University Battleground Poll says that’s increasingly untrue. According to The Hill, “Clinton, the front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination, has 46 percent compared to Trump’s 43 percent, a more narrow margin than other polls have found.”
The poll, released Monday, has a margin of error of 3.1 percent, leaving Trump and Clinton in a virtual tie in a general election match-up. The results will strengthen Trump campaign’s argument heading into today’s voting that he’s the clear choice of Republican voters.
But Trump’s path to the nomination remains difficult, and by no means is it a sure thing. He heads into today’s contests with 845 delegates. That’s 392 short of the 1,237 needed to win the Republican nomination.
Trump’s rivals cannot win enough delegates in the campaign’s home stretch to clinch the nomination. Their only hope is to block him and force a contested national convention in July, with no candidate arriving with a majority.
In their effort to stop Trump, Cruz and Kasich have formed an extraordinary alliance, Kasich has agreed not to campaign in Indiana’s May 3 primary, and Cruz has agreed not to campaign in Oregon and New Mexico, which vote later.
Trump needs to win 58 percent of all remaining delegates to reach the magic number by the end of the primaries on June 7, and is poised to win five of the six states voting today.
The Associated Press contributed to this article.
I’ll vote for Trump because Hillary is trash. However,yesterday on the news he acted like a clown. His comments on Kasich’s eating habits would embarrass a 7th grader. If he’s going to be leader of the free world then he should grow up.
Well when he gets rid of all the clowns I am sure he will
I’m with you Clayton, he would and be the best President we can have.
ITS ALL OVER FOR BOTH CRUZ AND KASICH AS DONALD TRUMP IS DESTROYING THEM IN PRIMARY STATE VOTING TUESDAY.
TONIGHT TRUMP WON: PENNSYLVANIA, MARYLAND, CONNECTICUT. And Trump currently has a commanding lead in RHODE ISLAND AT 64% and CLIMBING.
The American voters will not be denied.
CORRECTION: TRUMP WINS RHODE ISLAND
YES YES YES IF THEY WOULD HAVE ANY ETHICS THEY WOULD HAVE PULLED OUT A LONG TIME AGO
CRUZ IS DONE DONE DONE AND Kasich HE IS FROM A MUSLIM COUNTRY IN THE BALKAN.iT WRITE kASICZ.(PRON.IN ENGL.KASISCH.)

It’s all for attention but he is dead serious to help us out.I just remain entertained by his comedy and enjoy the side show now as he shows us how to win again.
I totally agree.
We love Trump’s vivacious personality and his determination to make America Great Again, though u don’t like his comedy and his ways how he comes thru, we do like it, we are not the only people that really enjoy and backup Trump for his convictions, we feel the same as he doesn’t!!!!!! there r thousands that come to his rallies – we live in California we can’t wait for Trump to come here so we can attend his rally, we r looking forward to Trump’s rally and to vote for him – a vote for Trump is a vote for my love ones!!!!! Trump tells it how it is. Trump is speaking for us and others this is what we feel – trump has a mouth and he is using his mouth to representing many of us that doesn’t have a voice!!!!!! Go Trump Go!!!!!
Great email thank you. very good
I second that over and over. !
could not of said it better kevin
You can’t possibly be this stupid. I guess this is what happens when people are low information voters.
Exactly what are you inferring? That anyone who votes for Trump is stupid? Anyone who votes for Killerhy is both dumb and stupid!
You are totally uninformed with regard to Trump’s background, morals, business dealings, lack of respect for women, lack of knowledge for world affairs, etc. No I’m not voting for Hillary; but unfortunately, after reading most of these comments Hillary will be the winner. Educate yourself on the Constitution and world affairs before voting instead of voting for a realty person. Reading is better for you than watching TV all the time.
By your comment, you are the one with low information. Trump is the only one in this primary that can win. Cruz and Kasich are mathematically eliminated and should drop out. Their collusion is backfiring on them which shows an indifferent to the millions of people who want Donald Trump. They are dividers of the party supported by lobbyist and George Soros, the worst criminal in America. We need someone who can unite the people to vote and Trump has proven he can do this.
This is what I’m referring to with regard to low information voter. George Soros is a very liberal person and has spent millions trying to defeat the Republicans. Soros is originally from Hungary and still returns often to his homeland. He has numerous investments there. Educate yourself before you make statements. Trump is a true Democrat and not a Republican.
We have information. People like you should open their eyes to the crooks in politics.
Soros is a crook who paid people to protest Trump’s rallies. Ther are democrat politicians as well as voters who changed to republican. Trump knows what America needs and we know he is not just in it for the money like Hillary and some others.
He is better than hillary who cannot tell the truth to save her soul. Trump has a bigger than life personality which he cannot turn off. He is a serious business man that knows what to do.
When is the last time you saw a politician really make you LAUGH? I have no problem with Trump’s clownish side. It is sorely needed these days.
Kasich looked like a Gavone, eating with half dozen mikes in his face. His posture is that of a man who never did physical activity in his life.As he has been left in the top three ( being very generous) His personal behavior has become very obnoxious. As most politicians his resume has NO REAL LIFE WORK EXPERIENCE. HOW MANY GOVERNMENT PENT IONS DOES HE HAVE ?? He is a SPOILER PLAIN AND SIMPLE#!!!!
@Bill Bartus: Actually Kasich did work as a young man in raising his siblings. I don’t know how he eats, however, he never did have a fundraiser for Hillary. I’m voting for Trump, however childish insults aren’t cool with voters.
He’s a slouch!
Can’t stand Ka-sick either, ugh! It must be hard to lose race after race, but I guess his ego won’t let him quit. Even though he can’t win one Republican primary, he somehow thinks he can win the general election. I don’t like Cruz, either. There’s something about that guy that really really rubs me the wrong way. He’s dirty and I’m sick of him saying ‘no one is getting to the convention with 1237.’ Yeah, well, we know your’re not!!
I agree with you abut cruz. I feel about cruz the same as I do about obama. I feel dirty and need a shower after listening to him.
Well said!
Would you buy a car from Cruz or Kasisch? or Hillary for that matter?
Cuffone. Stronziel.
Very funny.
I DIDNT NOTICE ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE GOVENORS EATING HABITS, THE TRICK TO EATING IS GETTING THE FOOD FROM YOUR PLATE TO YOUR STOMACH, IN AN EXPEDIENT MANNER. THE NWO HAD TOSSED OUT PRAYER AN MORALITY, HOW COULD YOU DEMAND ANYTHING ELSE.
THIS MESSAGE IS FOR BOTHSIDES.
Chew each mouthful 30 times for healthy digestion. Especially when one is his age. I’m 66.
Why can’t people grow a sense of humor. For christsakes, the man made a joke! I’m so tired of ‘folks’ being so thin-skinned about every little thing. The man’s a leader. He’s a patriot. He speaks the truth…something his opponents should try.
Right on. And, in all fairness, Trump’s views have evolved, like most of us. Also, what politician has ever said one thing to get elected, and another once elected? Woodrow Wilson, FDR, George Herbert Walker Bush, Barack “A seven trillion dollar deficit is inexcusable” Obama, among others. I trust Trump to straighten out the mess politicians have gotten us into. And, politicians created it, by spending money we don’t have, and with no regards how to pay for any of it! Why have I worked all my life, paid my taxes just so people who come to this country illegally can live like they retired from 40 years working for AT&T or GE? Get my meaning. When did any of us hear any politician say, “Elect me and I’m going to let anyone come across the borde!” I don’t recall Obama saying that, but that is what he’s done, and that was his intention from the start. Hillary wants to tear down all barriers. That means she wants all the Middle East to have a free ride to USA welfare! That’s what we will have, And should she get away with Benghazi, and the e-mail scandal she will go into the WH believing she got away with it and she’s above ALL laws! And we (many of us fought for this country) will get to pay for it all. We’re almost 20 trillion in debt now, Mr. Inexcusable!.
Kasik’s annoying eating habits GROSS to watch.
I just click both Kasik and Ted Cruz off if they come on a channel I watch.
Me too.
Ditto that Josie.
Repeat after me, Donald J. Trump President of the United States of America.
I wasn’t fond of that either but the media is putting up pics of all the candidates eating habits and made it into comedy. Some were really funny…except Hillary and she keeps her hot sauce in her purse. I am on my way to the polls in a little while to vote for DONALD TRUMP!!
MaryLou, your an asset to America. Trump will do for America as he says he will. I too will be voting for Trump. I hole he names Newt Gingrich as his VP. Newt is a smart politician and would be an asset to Trump and America.
Hey Buster:
I hadn’t thought of that, but I’m glad you said it….. Excellent choice.
How about Christi as a V-P ? He is good fighter and fits to me.
Good comment Buster! Did you happen to catch Newt and his wife on TV talking about “America in Danger” from the Muslim invasion? It was absolutely terrific!
You got to remember to he has only been in politics for 6 months…
I saw Kasich just yesterday while he was saying he didn’t know the definition of collusion..which was a STUPID thing to say..he was eating what looked to be a half of a sandwich…it was pretty gross. TRUMP IS RIGHT!! He stuffed it in almost in three bites and if that wasn’t bad enough he was talking with his mouth completely full. Now that’s gross!!!!
I agree with you 100%. Can you imagine any of our past presidents acting like that? We Americans would not be proud at all. Trump needs to start acting in a more sophisticated way — more “presidential.”
I am for Trump all the way but he needs to be more polished.
I think Trump is right on the money. “1 for 38” Kasich is a NAFSA supporter and he AND Cruz will be voting for TPP that will devistate our country. He AND Cruz are the TRUE insiders, the same as Sanders & Clinton. As for him staying in the race while he doesn’t have a chance, reminds me of a not very popular guy that comes to your party and DONT leave!
We just had to laughhe just makes me laugh he will be the best president we could ever have thank you
It’s all about getting all the attention , he’s doing this to be President Trump, He,s got my vote
If he didn’t make some of the stupid comments he would make a much better impression on the voters.He might think they are funny, but they make him seen juvenile and vapid. Stop it Donald – we are beyond the silly jokes.
HELL I MADE A REMARK ABOUT HIS EATING ALL DAY AND EVERYTHING IN SIGHT, BECAUSE IT WAS DISGUSTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND I AM GROWN UP. GOD, SO HE SAYS WHAT THE HELL HE THINKS, A HELLVA LOT MORE PEOPLE SHOULD DO THAT AND IT WOULD BE A BETTER WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU SCARED LITTLE BABIES DISGUST ME. SCARED TO SPEAK THE TRUTH
I am first a Cruz supporter, but I can see the obvious. If Mr. Trump can keep two/three of his most important promises, then I’ll give him my vote. #1 Secure the damned border (this means the Canadian border, too), #2 Reform Corporate tax rates so American Companies bring back their capital/jobs. #3 Find fiscally responsible way to strengthen US Military and really work on fixing VA mess. #4 And work with Congress to reduce the deficit/debt. Hopefully this isn’t ‘pie in the sky.’
Trump will stop Welfare fraud. Illegals & refugees. I vote Trump. Trump covered every issue I was concerned about in 08. Every thing I predicted about Obama & Hilary came true. Both are trash. God Bless Our Country
Have you been to his site? If not, go there! His Tax plan is amazing, same as his health care plan, etc. If my gut feelings are right (and I was right on with Obummer), he is telling the truth! If he is, you will see an amazing 4 years. Trump has said the same thing, “our country needs a businessman right now”. He certainly didn’t say forever.
BTW, he said he wants no pay during his Presidency, the same as many of his future advisors, they want to fix the country, that’s It! People that know and work with him with no skin in the game, says he is a honest, hard working business man that isn’t afraid to get his hands dirty, same as his sons. He is a man that loves his family and loves his country. He is the one we have been waiting for, for 40 years. If we blow this, we will NEVER get another chance.
America in aggregate isn’t stupid. Collectively we know something ain’t right about obama and the way things are going.
Like chicken soup for a cold, we are craving Trump. We’re done with the black experiment.
I’m for Trump. He is the first candidate at least from time of WW 1 who put his own money for his campaign. It would never , ever happen with another candidate in the future. So let take this opportunity and vote him in.
Well I am for sure and certain I will not vote for Hillary.
I am with Trump all the way HE CAN DO IT, EVEN WITH all the trash he is enduring.
YES HE WILL!! TRUMP 2016!!
What matters are the 11 states that can elect a President. Of those, only Texas is likely to vote Republican. Trump likely won’t win his home state, New York, nor most of the other large population, urban states: Michigan, Pennsylvania, Florida, Illinois, etc. Those states have large Democrat machines that can turn out whatever number of votes are needed to carry each state. And Trump is less likely to do well in the South, where Republicans normally can win. Democrats will start Election Day with 200 of the 270 Electoral College votes they need. It doesn’t take much to pick up 70 more. Trump’s other big problem: 35% of Republicans have said they would consider not voting for him. That’s how Romney and McCain lost. They spoke against large blocks of Republican voters causing literally millions of them to stay home and let President Obama win. Trump is following in their footsteps. Too bad for the United States of America. Where is Ronald Reagan when you need him? (May he rest in peace.)
Don’t be to sure of yourself on that deduction, Trump hasn’t got started on Hillary yet and when he does you may be surprised at the support he gets.
It’s too bad that the republicans can’t stick together and unite!! The complain trump cries but they are just as bad, spoilers!!
I read the above post I’m a Trump man and was a young man when Mr Regan ran I seem to REMBER a lot of folks said he could not win called him Ronald Mcregan and he was a great president he made many honest mistakes the stem cell research and the just say no for two that come to mind but when Ronald Regan for altshimers Nancy sure changed her mind. I think Donald J Trump is our last best chance and since he is not a caree politician I think he WILL MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN it sure is in a rough way after Mr Obama
Please check your spelling, grammar and stop with the run-on sentences. It’s giving me a headache!
You seem to forget that the polls only tell you “most likely voters” which means that you didn’t vote in 2008 or1012. Approx. 45% voted those years, so if Trump can get the normal nonvoters to vote ( at least 50% of the 55% that didn’t vote and 50% of 49% Republican that voted) he should win the general election. I don’t think to many of Sanders voters will vote for Hillary.
I believe you’re wrong on most counts. Time will certainly tell, Hank. Just wait until Trump gets to really start on Hillary Clinton – who, by the way, in my opinion, would be the worst candidate for President that the U.S. has every had.
And, while I’m at it, I couldn’t agree more with “WhatHappenedtotheEnglish Language”… this is just what I’ve often mentioned in my posts…that the great number of ‘posters’ on Horn have seemingy had little or no education when it come to spelling and grammar. What on earth has the American education come to, ‘fer chrissakes?’ Many of the posts here take quite a bit of re-reading to get any sense from them… and as for spelling – well, the way it’s deterioating, eventually in years to come – no one will be able to understand the ‘written word.’ 9And, by the way, it would appear that this problem isn’t confined to this country, but also this problem is very prevalent in many other Western, and English speaking countries to which I have had the opportunity to visit.
Maybe The Donald will improve education here in the States? Let’s hope so!!!
Hi rick,
uhhhh. not to be picky, but what does “9And” mean?
lololol
Go Donald, we are getting on the Trump train by the thousands.
God bless
Do not cry about Reagan but take in your hands what you can now. Stop Hillary! Vote Trump. I do not know why you think Hillary would win ? Hillary has support from all donors waiting for favors , from all criminals and free-loaders and some” fannies” creatures .Do you think that they are bigger in numbers than normal , regular people ? We will wipe her out by proper votes. Trump represents us, regular people.
well I am for sure and certain I will not vote for Hillary even if there is no one else to vote for. But praise the Lord the Trumpster will be there.
Clayton I sure hope that Hilary gets to do federal time I think a orange jump suit is what She Deserves
In my home as a child my parents would have set us at a table by ourselves if we ate like Kasich. My parents taught us that it is as important to sit and eat properly you never know where you will visit. This is the rest of this the story we were told. I have traveled to over 100 Countries this has proven to be so true about how important proper behavior is to where you could end up and need this information. Thank God I did learn this in the MIDDLE EAST because I lived there for two years.
Speculation is not going to beat Clinton: what is needed a person with proven substantive policies and the mettle to handle the democratic nominee, especially if it’s Clinton. There’s only one person proven to beat Clinton in a debate and, that person is Rick Santorum! Let’s get him back in this thing and stop the verbal nonsense!
That just will not happen. Just vote Republican and for America’s sake, don’t throw your vote away!!!
I guess a lot of the electorate sucked up the propaganda aimed at Rick Santorum in 2012 and 2016. My question is why is the media, republican establishment AND the democrats afraid of Rick Santorum? I’ll tell you why – because he has the mettle to challenge whatever ails our country and the experience to do something about it! It “will not happen” because of an electorate that, like you, has yielded to the “political correctness” that you say you are against. Do the homework and check the credentials of each candidate – Santorum stands alone as the most qualified to be president – anyone else, the Republican lose, again; and, if a republican wins, we’re back to square one! Good luck.
It is too late for Santorum. Vote Trump.He will bring common sense to our country again.And peace to the world,and safety to us and our children.
D – I suppose you’re right but only because there’s an insensitive streak of the electorate as-a-whole – insensitive to what really ails our country. If Trump wanted to care for us “and our children” he should be more specific, especially in the area of conservative, social issues; family, abortion, religious freedom, same sex marriage…, in these crucial areas he begins to look like a “rhino”! How can there be “peace I n the world” when our children AND their parents take drugs or, when a daughter and a father want to get married (exactly what Santorum referred t as the “slippery slope” of our social issues)? You’re right, it is too late but,,,?
i will also vote for Trump.We have to remember why it is so important to vote for him at this time. He is NOT a politician and we shouldn’t expect all his comments and answers to be completely correct. He is not bought by the political establishment, he says what is on his mind, not always a good thing, he knows about business and this country needs someone who knows about business, he is not anywhere close to perfect. How can he mess things up any worse than they are now? I would never vote for socialist, communist Hilary or Bernie EVER. We need to stand behind him and unite our party for a big win. GO TRUMP!!!
Well, I can remember the “establishment” saying the same thing about Ronald Reagan – and look what happened. I think he carried 48 or 49 states. I think WE THE PEOPLE are even more teed off than we were then – and say what you want, when your President makes you feel that you matter you become a prouder people. I was never more proud to be an American than when Reagan was President. I feel Donald Trump can do that again – people are just plain discouraged and left out. I believe Trump is saying what most are thinking but won’t vocalize. Believe me I think he will get more votes than anyone can conceive because he is saying what they are thinking, but because of PC can say outloud.
Trump may NOT act presidential at all times, but who really cares! He will make a GREAT President and I am behind him 100%.
With what we have in the “BLACK HOUSE” now, Mr. Trump will be a breath of fresh air. I just hope they fumigate and sanitize the entire place after Jan. 20, 2017. It’s gonna take allot to get that STENCH out!
I hope they will not steal most things from WH like Clintons did leaving that place.
Go Trump!!!
I guess ol Teddy boy won’t like this. He’s says he is winning all the states and he’s the only one who can beat Hillary. The press is just so cruel putting the truth out here like that. Now he has nothing to run on and will have to step up his cheating and BS. I don’t think the HP CEO is going to like this either. Oh well Looks like Trump will be the man.
Cruz anyway is not eligible for president . Like Obama , like Rubio.
I am amazed at all the political parties trying to ‘get rid of’ Trump and the media who are playing along with the politicians. It is clear that the political parties, government in general and media still do not get it. Americans are tired of politicians / government screwing them. They keep hitting more and more Americans with taxes, higher medical bills etc., and we are basically tired of it. Remember the politicians do not have to pay for their medical care – the American people pay for their medical care, and that would be for that politician’s lifetime. If I were a politician I would not worry about screwing Americans out of medical care, making country take in all these illegal immigrants and taking money out of the hard working American people and giving it to them. The present politicians have screwed the American people to many times and that is why Mr. Trump is so very popular. All this posturing by political parties to try and get rid of Trump – it is like communist in this action. Has our government turned into the new world communist? WAKE UP political parties – you are not listening to the American people are you, WHICH YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE REPRESENTING.. If you were you would understand why Mr. Trump is in this race for president, he is listening to Americans. We the American people are tired of what our government and political parties have become.
I am a TRUMP fan and know without a doubt he can help our country. We need someone strong and intelligent and not bought out by lobbyist. TIME to clean up the bad politians. VOTE TRUMP
I can not understand why Cruz & Kasich do not drop out & support Mr Trump. Of course, all of the RINO’ S hate Mr Trump since their spot at the trough will be gone. Cruz is a sleazy guy & Kasich is really a Democrat. Mr Trump is only one that is for the average citizen & he does love America, which is far more than can be said about the current WH holder or the other Democrat running. Hope the American people come out in droves in Nov for Mr Trump should he not be cheated out of the nomination though it is still a long time until Nov, we just need to be prayerful about this. GOD is still in control, only a fool would think otherwise.
Trumps inveterate propensity of insulting others faults with complete disregard to his own, proves beyond any reason of doubt, why he is not now, nor ever will be fit to become the leader of this nation.
It is disconcerting to see so many citizens who are supporting this type of behavior as tolerable, willing to allow him to enter the governance of our nation without remonstration, or being accountable for his actions.
For the purpose of discussion, let’s take your assessment at face value whether accurate or not. What’s your point?
Name one potential general election opponent who is better “fit to become the leader of this nation.” The primary season is done for me. By the time I got to vote, none of the candidates I supported were still in the race. Once again, even with the rich field of candidates we started with this election, the general election is reduced to identifying which of the two remaining options is likely to cause the least damage.
Anyone who has already determined who in the slate of candidates they will absolutely not vote for, especially when that candidate has been on the same debate stage with a candidate they would vote for, has made the same mistake that gave us two terms of Obama. I’m not happy with any of the remaining candidates, but there are certainly some who are far worse than others. As seems to be the case for many on this board, the Republican party left me some time ago. I vote in that primary (usually) because it’s the party closest to where I am, but I still have to use powerful optics to even see an outline. I’d never have guessed that Trump would be leading the race for the nomination this close to the end of the process. This latest response to the pure politics of the Cruz/Kasich alliance was another gross failure on Trump’s part – he could have essentially ignored it and focused on the general election. Either he completely ignored all counsel or should fire them; I suspect the former.
If ignoring one’s own faults and vilifying others’ proves a candidate unfit for office, what does that say about the candidate in the general election who does exactly the same thing to the remaining opponent and all the voters who support any other candidate? Add to it what that candidate has already done in public office to destroy the international reputation of this country, violate sworn oaths, abrogate responsibilities, and blame others for personal failures. That most certainly does describe Trump’s most likely general election opponent. If neither are now, nor ever will be, fit to sit as commander in chief, which lever to you pull in November?
If your answer is “neither,” then you’re as big a fool as those who voted for Ross Perot or didn’t vote for McCain and Romney (neither of whom I supported).
We have all been held accountable for the misdeeds of the past, but the bill is being passed on to our grandchildren’s grandchildren who will hate us while never knowing our names. That has to end. This election is a chance to begin that process. Drop the #NeverWhoever hashtags and deal with the reality of the moment.
The lesser of two evils is still LESSER.
If I wanted a lecture, I’d enroll in night class.
Sounds like you should!
Desert Lion,
Your dissertation of how you see the present electoral process is poignant and astute.
As for your question! What is my point?
First I must say I am approximately the same age as Mr. Trump, and have witnessed some amazing times that have changed the face of this country.
As a young man growing up in the era of my generation; most of us were taught respect for elders and others. To treat others as one would like to be treated in kind.
In my youth when someone was being a bully, or to use a term from that era “Hoodlum” it was very often someone of well to do families who were never taught respect for self and others.
Or by an uneducated person who came from appalling living conditions, (No fault of their own) expressing their anger toward the world for life’s circumstances levied upon them.
What I see from Mr. Trump is the aforementioned scenario, having a life of privilege. This does not make him a person of bad character, I think he may well be a very good man in his element of business.
I just cannot disregard what I have been viewing and hearing from him when things don’t go as he thinks they should.
What I see in Cruz is a politician, and yes his replies are in politispeak; however he has at least shown humility on several occasions in his speeches; lacking inflammatory adolescent remarks.
With this in mind, my gut feeling is; if it ever comes down to having to side with the less fortunate; the humility one possess opens opportunity for showing grace. As opposed to one who glorifies greed, retribution and xenophobia!
The lack of conscience exhibited are as you said evils. However, when it comes down to whom I feel would not place this country in despondency and jeopardy when confronted by an adversary would be; the politician who can keep his head, and control his rhetoric.
Be it bad, good or indifferent. The choice is still up to the individual of how well they can live with the choices they make in this life, and how it will affect future generations if they are seeing past the present.
Trump, Trump all the way. We better give him a chance. This is a different time of out life. The Timing is everything. Today is different than 4 years ago. If Romney or McCain ran, they were gone too. People want a different face in White House this year and they really meant that. Vote Trump !!!!
Proudly wearing my Trump shirt and heading to the polls today! I can only hope that Ct voters will be smart and vote for real change. Obama has been a nightmare and the thought of Hillary Clinton getting in makes me sick to my stomach.
Go TRUMP!!!
I think Trump will win Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Trump will Trash Skilary.
Campaigning is, and always has been, a game. The toughest and loudest wins. That would be Trump. It’s really no different this year than previous years. The candidate that can survive the dirt flying from every direction and can also dish it out is the one left standing. Also I guess Trump has a right to express an opinion about someone’s eating habits. Look at all the fun people have throwing nasty remarks towards Trump. Fair’s fair.
Just voted for Donald Trump. Please cut the name calling / get down to Presidential business. We need a successful business person in office for a change.
He is successful with all his bankruptcies, law suits, mob connections, child out of wedlock, 3 marriages, etc. Too many to name. I think you should do research on the person you vote for.
I’m for Trump! I could care less if he looks and acts like a clown, dribbles on his bib, talks like an idiot, walks like a hippo, screams like a monkey, or slops like a hog!! What I’m voting for is somebody who dares tell me he’s going to put a stop to the razzmatazz liberal insanity that’s been going on in this country for decades. NOBODY but Trump has told us in plain language what he’s going to do for America! NOBODY but Trump has a proven record of jumping smack into mud holes and turned them into paying propositions—sometimes almost miraculously. Even if he hits a stone wall, this man has convinced me that he will TRY! Lets put it this way—If Trump fails to straighten out this bloodletting, rioting-in-the-street, chaotic American nightmare, then I can’t think of anyone else capable of blowing the lid off it and getting in to where the rubber meets the road. This is America’s last chance. TAKE IT! VOTE FOR TRUMP!!!!!!!!!!!
Well said Don, I couldn’t agree with you more and I am with you all the way. Made cold chills run down my spine and moistening in my eyes.
God bless you
God bless our country
God bless Donald J. Trump
Don,
Nice defense for how you see things. I would like to have you give me some examples of his attempts to change the way the government works. When he has admittedly stated he has taken advantage of the system for years to gain riches off the people (TAXPAYERS) of this country. That does not to me seem like the remarks of someone who has the interests of the people and the country at heart.
I would like to see the tax returns required to be given as part of the process. His financial statements which are required by all federal executive branches and managers in a non-exempt status should have been submitted long before now. These items on there own are enough cause, to have him eliminated from the running. Believe me everyone else has submitted the proper paperwork to date. Why is he so privileged as to not have complied with the laws set forth. Is this an indication that the laws are applied to all but him and his circle of influence. I have heard rumors these are the same charges directed toward Obama.
It seems just the opposite; That he is willing to say and do anything he has too, to secure the position that will sustain his lifestyle, continuing with making promises while supporting “business as usual” keeping his immediate circle wealthy for a long time to come.
You haven’t been following he filed his returns back in 2015, because he said that he would have been blocked otherwise. That’s why none of his opponents have mentioned it. There was nothing to mention.
Go troll somewhere else. Goodbye.
So his denial of sending in his tax papers during the debate as recent as last February 2016 was just another ploy by the establishment?
Fortune magazine has recently written a very informative article concerning the lack of his submitting his tax statements. “Trump argues that several years of his returns are being audited by the IRS, and that he won’t make any of the filings public until the review is completed.”
I think you are the troll who blindly follows his master like most of the sheep posting in favor of this narcissist.
Oh and what you are thinking is tax returns is in fact is a financial statement however dubious. If you dare to read the referenced article stated above, you will understand. Maybe!
Your frequent comments about income taxes is interesting. I knew a guy once who had the misguided ego of tangling with the IRS auditors and really lost his shirt because he was in the wrong. He was a close friend of my brother, but he didn’t like me at all simply because I am a retired IRS tax examiner. Take it from me; No matter how big and prosperous a company might be, their little old tax return trickles down to a little bottleneck that can be checked and cross-checked multiple different ways for accuracy, scam, double dealing, or inside pay-offs. Just because it’s big bucks doesn’t mean cheating is easy. The security against that is not with the rich guy or his tax preparer (we called them H&R Block-heads because they made so many mistakes), but with the tax examiner him/herself. If they are caught scamming, especially with their own SSN account, the penalty was firing and a huge fine, and possibly jail time! The odds are extremely high that Donald Trump’s tax filings were accurate and legal, and as a very shrewd business man he became astute at taking full advantage of everything the law (the IRS) allowed, just like the average little guy would do if he was as smart as Donald Trump. But as I said, I don’t give a hoot how he filed his taxes or slops his hogs, I want a guy in the oval office who will erase all the insane liberal scribblings on the political blackboard and start all over again. VOTE FOR TRUMP!!!!!!!!!
It is incredible that a huge number of people do not realize that a large percentage of people voting for Sanders are actually voting against Hillary,not supporting Sanders. Trump will defeat her in a landslide despite all the fraudulent phoney voting schemes devised by the demoratic (correct spelling) party.
Newt Gingrich as his VP. Newt is a smart politician and would be an asset to Trump and America.
Make America Great again. The Americans should not loose any of there freedom. VOTE FOR TRUMP ! VOTE FOR TRUMP !
All of our elected officials, while in office, are supposed to support the choices of the majority of the people. That is democracy. Democracy is what our constitution and freedom is all about. Donald Trump clearly has the majority of the republican people behind him. However the Republican Party instead of doing their job of supporting the will of the majority as they were elected to do, have choosen to pursue their own agenda and to go against what the majority of the republican people clearly want. This shows how corrupt our government has become, and how little they care about the people of this Great Country. It is so sad to realize the majority of our elected officials are a bunch of low life scum sucking swine!
know and remember their names, then vote against them en masse when they come up for re-election at a local election near you! What’s the problem?
As a mentally sound 90 yr old republican, and having met a fairly significant number of our
US Senators, I agree it’s time to make changes in our leadership. However, don’t let a play
ground bully become the world leader. We need someone that doesn’t have diarrhea of the
mouth and makes promises knowing that our president doesn’t have the power or authority
to accomplish. As a WWII veteran I believe I’ve voted in each presidential election since
Truman and have never seen the likes of our front runners we have this year..
I don’t understand all the polls that say no one would vote for Trump. Women won’t vote for Trump. Blacks won’t,Latinos won’t. He’s ahead in these caucuses so someone is voting for him! Where are these polls taken?
Anyone that can put Trump down and not look at what Hillary Clinton has done really needs to do their homework.
ps..talk about marriages..it’s not love keeping Bill and Hillary together..I mean the man was President and had the affair then lied to our faces.
Go TRUMP!!!!!!!!!!
The democrats and Clinton have the winning message for the politically correct masses of people (that might also include republicans); what they don’t have is a winning defense of socially conservative issues ,such as “same sex marriage,”
“abortion,” “patriotism.” “family”…. This is where they are most vulnerable: therefore, isn’t it logical to oppose any democratic nominee with the person best able to communicate these issues, to the electorate? Rick Santorum IS that candidate. In a brokered, republican convention the delegates will have another opportunity to re- visit these issues and the candidate.
Hello everybody, I’m back, here is the thing,. American people are doing well and keep voting and support Mr Donald Trump as our American president of U.S. of America. It’s time for a big change and better for American people. We need to talk to American people and respect to one another. We are pure beautiful American people. Mr Donald Trump, don’t give up, I’m fighting for you to be our American president. Go Trump. God Bless our American people and let our beautiful American Rose and the greatest country rise above….love.
Hi pretty, you are so sweet. Yes, I am supporting you and Mr Donald Trump.
American people, listen up, stop being selfish and stupid. Vote for Mr Donald Trump. He is our last chance to be our American president for our American country. If you love your American country, then you would vote and support Mr Donald Trump. Please vote for him. If you hate America , then you need to get off our American country. So be it… go for Mr Trump. Our American country rose will be the greatest country. God Bless you and your family as well. We owe this American country to the American Indians and our founding fathers, who walked on the American country.
I wanted to give a big thank you pretty for supporting our American Indian. We should not shut them off. They belong here and American country belongs to the Indians. Go Trump.
Trump won not just all of the States, but also all of the Counties in Penn , and nearly every county in all of the other States , Ted Cruz , was a distant 3rd , I will vote for Trump when he gets to California
Last night while watching the news on CNN about the 5 state primaries I couldn’t help but take note of the 8 commentators that were discussing the primary election events.
Of all the points that Trump discussed after the elections ( security, jobs, healh care, education and more), it seems that the panel was more interested in downing Trump by discussing the fact that he said Hillary played the “woman card” in her campaigning efforts.
I was astounded. Eight well paid, well educated people, couldn’t find something more meaningful to discuss on national tv than trump’s usage of the “woman card” phrase.
I think this “politically correct” garbage should be stuffed in the trash can and the people of this country shouldn’t be insulted by the innate innuendo that our news media is spreading across our country.
We need to get on with the important issues facing our country today, not Donald Trump’s usage of phrases that may have hurt someone’s delicate “politically correct” ego.
Needless to say, I turned off the tv and went on the internet to get my news.
Go Donald, may God bless you.
The GOP has a lot to answer for. But at this time anyone they put forth as their candidate is preferable to anyone the Socialist Democrats can put forth. We as a nation can not afford four more years like the awful legacy of the past eight. If the GOP does gain control of the executive branch and maintains a majority in the legislative branch what are their plans for the nation? What will they do to deflate the bloated federal bureaucracy? What will they do to reduce the inflated deficit? What will they do to lower the tax burden on working Americans. What will they do to protect the States from invasion by foreign nationals? What will they do to secure our boarders against gun runners, drug smugglers, potential terrorists and other illegal activity? What will they do to encourage small business and stimulate job growth in the private sector? What will they do to reduce our dependence on foreign energy sources? What will they do to improve our infrastructure that does not include hiring foreign companies and labor? Will they support the Constitution? Will Congress reassert the authority granted to it by Article I, section 8? Will the executive branch be restricted to that authority specifically granted by the Constitution? Will the President be required to honor the Oath of Office? Will the Supreme Court be restricted to its Constitutional mandates and not create or pass legislation from the bench? Will Congress remove any Justice in good behavior as stipulated by Article III? We know what can be expected from either Hillary or Bernie or even Joe and none of it is good! But what can we expect from a President from the GOP?
The question was: Will Congress remove any Justice not serving in good behavior?
Respectfully to 90 year old Don. Congratulations on your 90 years of living, and thank you for your service. But as an 82 year old other Don, veteran of the USAF, I must say, “Welcome to the New Age America where family values, mutual political respect, and America-loving news media are not what they used to be.” Too many people are dozing in the New Age fog characterized by Nam Jane, draft-dodging Bill, “Village” Hillary, and illegal Bo, and have forgotten the straight-forward, tail-kicking, get-er-done language of our youth. Donald Trump has re-discovered it! And I don’t think he’s all talk.
Donald Trump has tapped into an angry America, with a highly “polished” narrative and delivery he has managed to shift the anger from the political realities of the campaign to himself and into an idolization of his person or personality. Should we be picking “personalities” for president? Cruz, on the other hand, looks to be a political “hack,” if his behavior on the campaign trail is any indication. Kasich is just a “nice” guy but, as Leo Durocher (baseball player and manager) once said, “…nice guys finish last!” The way things are looking – a brokered convention will enable a fresh start for the electorate to clear its mind and, for the delegates to begin to view all the candidates [again] with only one thing in mind, the election of the “best” candidate for the job!
