You think? As if it's not glaringly obvious!

No, the biggest mistake that Republicans could have made is nominating Cruz. His ideology, unlikability and smarminess would have ensured that he had zero chance of winning the general election.

With Mr. Tramp, no one really knows what his actual chances are, because he is a very unconventional candidate and the polls could be way off. At least in theory.

Arizona polling suggests that the state will turn blue, because Latinos can't stand Trump. 70% of Americans have an unfavorable opinion of Trump. Clinton is defeating him in every single national poll. What is going on?! I know I'm young (32), but I've never seen anything like this in my life. it seems unprecedented. Lmao!
Its called the "the silent majority ".


We will wait for November and let the Hilliary fans be loud for now.

What do you mean? He didn't even get "the silent majority" of the Republicans. He didn't even get 45%.

Sure, sure. The polls are all wrong. Aren't they?

NY:
Clinton vs Trump Clinton 54.8 Trump 34 Clinton +20.8
Su8gar - believe your polls - but I'm actually looking at the real person on the street and what they're leaning are. I really think you people under estimate what the American people want - you only want to believe in polls which are slanted anyway the one asking for the poll wants it to be.

You said it yourself, for crying out loud. Trump plays the game, he did so when he endorsed and supported the Clintons. Again as you said yourself, he did for his own benefit. He is doing the same thing now with you!

But now you are trying to tell me, Trump is sincere? LOL Talk about denial and being entertaining.
Watching gullible people like you is my entertainment then, I suppose. Keep drinking the KoolAid although you technically know better.

If you want to talk about rage - let's look at those who supported Cruz and others - the boards are full of anti-Trump posts daily from them.
Hillary supporters have done nothing but deflect when ever asked questions - or they answer questions with a question. There is no accountability needed when it comes to Hillary.

We have our differences - you won't consider my candidate - I won't consider yours so these talking points and ad nauseum anti Trump posts are really a waste of your time - but you just like to goad people and troll.

I think a lot of the pro-Cruz people were pro-Hillary in disguise.


Trump has been a threat from day one and the Hillary campaign is working overtime to try to stop him including paying social media trolls.

Clinton is not even my candidate. The only reason I possibly consider her would be because I think the only person worse would be Trump.
And who says there is no accountability needed when it comes Clinton? These boards are full with threads and posts criticizing Clinton, just as they are with Trump, at every corner. And for the most part rightly so.
If I goad you by proclaiming my deep reservations against Trump, what are all the others doing with their deep reservations for Clinton and posting them? Are they trolls, too?
My position is simple. The 2 worst possible people on either side have become the candidates, I however put Trump even ahead of Clinton when it comes to unfit. If that hurts your feelings, then what can I say..... But I'm surprised since your candidate Trump rants don't seem to bother you. You guys usually call that "Saying it like it is". IDK seems like a double standard.

As a Cruz supporter, your supposition makes me sick. I don't need to lie about my political viewpoint on an anonymous internet forum. People who do really should seek counseling.
