and he has a catchy slogan that fits on a cap.

no bullshit, this is how he is winning. he is selling himself and people are buying.

he loves the poorly educated. my guess is he meant the low info voters.

they watch american idol. they see trump tower. his plane. his show. the hats. he wants to take it to china, to putin, to scrap bad trade deals, to make america great. it works for them, and because so many are working a zillion hours a week in the world the repubs helped to create, they will vote for yet another (unconventional perhaps) republican to save them, to save us all.

its what we have become as a country.

and sadly, he is the best option on that side, imo.

benefiting from free tv exposure and start demanding that our candidates get equal time. We need to talk about the issues, not try to compete with the asshole party's cheap theatrics. and shit-flinging.

He is going to be their nominee.

This who they are and what they want - he's just a mouth piece for the monsters.

Those clowns reminded me of Curly, Larry and Moe. I was expecting Trump to poke Cruz's eyes and hit Rubio in the head with a hammer. Dr. Carson was on another planet and John Kasich was the only one in the room that had half a brain. Here we are today Trump goes up in the polls and they say Rubio is finished and Trump may beat Cruz in Texas. I just don't get it, has the entire country
gone insane? I fear Trump can't be stopped by anyone.
