That's like closing the barn door after the horses have escaped.
I almost believed that until I met Ted Cruz.

Trump neither had the time nor the circumstance to "mature".

Her response? “If you can’t get past me, how are you gonna handle Vladimir Putin?"

She's just saying what everyone is thinking.

No one is thinking that. In fact Fox has been getting slammed by a lot of people. Of course those in The Cathedral closed ranks to back one of their own, but the people on the street are not fooled.

The only "sticking" Ted Cruz reminds me of, is something sticking to my shoes walking in a dog park.

He is more adapt to shutting down Government, than running it.

The problem there is the idea that Putin needs handled.

Trump was no different. If he wins the primary, past statements that the left can use to "prove" the GOP hates women will be used against him. The question was how would he handle it in the general. If you think the "I'm not PC" answer will work to deflect the attacks based on his past comments, I think you severely misjudge the electoral climate.
Exactly. When post-menopausal Hillary brings up his comments on women, he won't be able to use his disgusting "bleeding" reference.

Just saw the News and now The GOP says Trump may be banned from future events, if he does not take the pledge to not run as an independent. I guess they thing they need to "Fix" the elections again, since they can't find anyone people feel comfortable voting for.

I don't think so.

Fox's house is in disarray - and Ailes called Trump to repair the damage:

So much for the demise of Trump. He can't be ignored - he can't be maginalized.
