Paris and Trump, wow, I still am amazed that people really like what he is saying, but I guess I am in the minority; as for Cruz, that one I totally disagree with you on. Why do you think people would support Cruz over Rubio and what does this have to do with the Paris attack?

Explain what you mean by the term : white trash? Is that different from say, black trash or red or rural versus urban thinking? What a bigotted statement!!! Shame on you.

Well, his brother acted decisively to attack those responsible for harboring our attackers, as well as a country and dictator who had nothing to do with the attack. A mixed bag. . . .

I still do not believe over 1/3 to the Republicans really will vote for Trump. Will he win the nomination? It is way too soon to even predict, but I am pretty certain he will not get almost 40% of the vote. This is almost like when Hillary was leading all Republicans by huge %ages, because you had such a large Republican field. Now you are seeing totally different polls. This will happen with Trump as well I am guessing.

Yet wrong already about 2016. Said Trump would crash & burn. Maybe you said this too, I don't remember. Well no matter. Case closed.

Trump vs King Hillary will be an easy win for Trump. Trump relates more to the average person than elitist Hillary ever did. He's created thousands of jobs for average hard working Americans. The only jobs Hillary created are the maids making her bed and cleaning the toilet in her mansion.
I think the libs are far more embarrassed by Hillary than republicans are of Trump.

Guessing is the best you or anyone can do as Trump is the most unpredictable candidate in recent history. When Trump is introduced as Mr. President the guessing will be over except for those who will be saying : How did that happen ?
