I was watching his pre-rally news conference in Atlanta today and I thought he made a good point. He has spent 0 dollars on advertising and he has been on top of the polls for 4 straight months. Others have spent millions and are at 4%. This hasn’t happened by accident. By deftly marketing himself he has managed to get millions in free advertising. He doesn’t even pay cab fare to go to the studios. He calls it in. They give him 25 minutes of commercial free time and then thank him for it. They anxiously wait for his return after calling them dishonest and other choice words to their face.

BTW, notice all those “colored” people, as Democrats call them?

What's your point? We should let him be president because he's good at manipulating the media?

That's shows that if one can do it, Trump will be the one capable of doing it!

His family shows how a successful family can deal with divorces and still have a good relationship within the family and kids that even though born in a wealthy family weren't given it all for free but taught how to work hard and care for others.

Trump himself doesn't drink nor smoke due to a lesson learned due to the tragedy of his brothers dead due to alcoholism. He saw that and taught his kids what happens if you live like that.

The only thing he's proven is saying outrageous things gets the media drooling. But president? He'll never get elected. Neither will Carson or Cruz or Fiorino or most of the other "tough" talkers. The GOP needs to find someone with the skills it takes to be president instead of just making the media drool.

And, who, exactly do YOU think has "the skills it takes to be president"? And why, according to you, does Trump not have them?

Obama never had "the skills it takes to be president" but the DNC didn't care one bit.

Almost secretly wish Trump would win. It would be 4 years of endless turmoil on the home front and internationally with his paper thin temper and massive ego colliding with other politicians and leaders here and abroad. Endless entertainment.

Well. The majority of American voters thought he had the skills and elected him to the presidency on two separate occasions.

It shows he will be a good custodian of nation’s finances. He will not spend $500 million to train 5 rebels. The wall will cost a fraction of what fear mongers claim it will. If last year he had said he will spend 0 on ads 4 and be on top for 4 straight months you would have demanded a plan. Well, he did not produce a plan and still did it. Those who did have plans failed. So next time you wonder why his voters aren’t clamoring for plans that’s why.
