Even if he were to win the election, he'll need the support of Congress if he hopes to get anything done. At the rate he's pissing them off, Republicans are likely to unite with Democrats just so they don't have to associate with him.
You mean similar to what happened with Obama? Then I guess Trump will mimic Obama and issue a lot of EOs.
But Trump really needs to pull his head out and start acting like a leader.
Agreed. He's a smart guy who built himself a real estate empire in one of the hardest cities in the US to pull that off. But the MSM is now in a full-fledged hunt to tear him down, and it's going to get real ugly for the next couple of months. Instead of his hand-to-hand combat shtick he has to figure out a way to float above the fray. His personality though, I don't know if he can pull it off.

He knows what he is doing. This Mexican thing will be good for him if he gets nominated.
Where's the "News"? These jokers have been against Trump from day 1. Despite this, Trump won more votes, despite having 16 competitors, than any GOP candidate in history.
The fact that Trump doesn't pander to these professional politicians is what draws people to him. It's why he will win the election.
Only if he becomes the official nominee of the Republican party. There's a good chance that won't happen unless Trump snaps out of it fast and starts to work toward conciliation with his party.
You didn't vote for Trump in the primary. You voted for a Trump delegate. There is nothing that binds the delegates to your vote except the Republican party's rules, and those rules can be changed with none of the voter's say-so, because the party is a private organization, ruled by its National Central Committees.
If the Rules Committee changes the rules and frees the delegates from their current obligations, you could be deciding whether to vote or not for an entirely different person come election day who isn't Donald Trump.
Before you scoff, know that there is currently a movement in the party to do just this.
In fact, the Democratic party may be facing a similar outcome if Sanders gets his way and doesn't concede to Clinton.

They mentioned Jeb Bush on tv, possibly to replace Trump.

We don't know if he is smart, but I think we can make an assumption. Generally, people making the comments he does are not highly intelligent. He inherited his money and the start-up was a gift. It's is not incredibly difficult to wait for your parent to give you money or for them to die and leave you money. He filed for bankruptcy four times, and he has a litany of other failed projects. Of course, America is a country not a business. He will find it much more difficult to file for bankruptcy, but that was his plan. It may have been a suggestion. No, maybe it was a negotiating starting point. I can't remember.
Trump will lose, but it will be on Trump--not the media. His best ever, big, brain just cannot keep his mouth shut.
We are all anxious to see how they will help you defend Trump. Each time a Faux News pundit tells you what to think and say, you immediately run with it. In fact you can read it in the posts here. Sometimes (like this case), the excuse is so ill conceived only the most brainwashed can believe it. You can literally listen to Rush or watch some pundit on Faux, and within ten minutes you know it will be regurgitated on here. It becomes the unified party line. It really is funny. You should try it. I can guarantee you will see the pattern.
Many democrats watch Faux News. I was watching FAUX on the last presidential election night. Mainly because I also read and watch the real news and knew Obama would win. I am very grateful. They did not disappoint. It certainly made me laugh.
That Obama won was enough to scare any intelligent person. What you call real news, I call propaganda and it is likely the reason he won. Sometimes you wonder which enemy country is controlling the mainstream news. It is certainly not a true American. More than likely the mainstream news is controlled by greedy companies.

You never know. The MSM is now full on to take out Trump. The trick is to play on voters fears about Trump as a screaming wild man unable to make rational decisions. The usual political weasels like Paul Ryan and Lindsey Graham are quickly jumping on the Dump Trump bandwagon and these things can develop an uncontrollable momentum. Give it a week to play out.

"if he gets nominated" ...??? So being such an ardent supporter, you now question as the presumptive nominee that he may not even get nominated at the convention?
No, "this Mexican thing" will not be good for him. He needs a good chunk of the Hispanic vote and all this crap he's spewing about the judge will only alienate more Hispanics in supporting him during the general election.

They could still change the rules and bring in Jeb Bush.
