Some of them. Quite a few of the 100 invitees have made it abundantly clear they are not showing up and want nothing to do with Donald Trump's campaign.

Does he oversell and underdeliver to this extent when doing business?

In business he deals with actual business people who have to possess at the very least a modicum of intelligence. He doesn't have that impediment with his followers.

The Hispanic Texans love Trump and Cruz.
The Hispanic Tourists, not so much, but they cannot vote anyway.

There isn't anything racist about wanting to uphold the law, and get illegals, of all nations out of this country.
If they want to come back, let them come back legally and go thru the system.

As I've said from the beginning "THE AMERICAN CITIZENS" and NOT of the media or the "D"/"R" establishments will decide this election - people have woken up, tired and know the BS coming from the those "avenues" and won't stand for it any more.

Is Trump perfect - of course not but neither is the rest of them. In kind imho Trump is what we need, "dangerous" is already the current POTUS named "O".
Good luck with that theory. It's about as accurate as the Tea Party belief that the public would support shutting down the government over Obamacare funding. How'd that work out?

Most of the "R's" (as they're the majority) in the House of Representatives are spineless and corrupt, so we'll never really know.

Bull.
We know VERY WELL. The polls showed OVERWHELMINGLY that the public - despite the fact that it wasn't very happy with Obamacare - did NOT want the government shut down over that issue. And GOP popularity plummeted as a result.
