Another Trump Thread

Post by JohnStOnge »

Yes. More suggestion that he doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell of winning the general election.

http://www.wcpo.com/news/national/69-pe ... an-ap-poll

Among many other things:
More than 60 percent of all registered voters and 31 percent of Republicans said they definitely would not vote for Trump in the general election.
That's right. The Republican Party is in danger of fielding a candidate that almost a third of Republicans will refuse to vote for. And I think that if you think it's going to get much better in that regard for someone as well known as Trump is you are kidding yourself.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

Your fixation with Trump is unsettling.

This is your spandos equivalent of 9/11 or Sandy Hook.

Good because I would like some information. Can you tell me why someone who is opposed to a whack job like Trump is fine supporting a whack job like Cruz?

The brutal truth...

Trump is FAR more electable than Cruz.

Can you give me an example of Cruz "stalking" a journalist for 20 years because he didn't like what she said about him? You know, stuff like sending her newspaper clippings with "you're a loser" scrawled across the top. Or can you cite him saying something like what Trump said about John McCain's prisoner of war experience? Can you cite a situation like the one involving Trump and Meghan Kelly involving Cruz? Can you find me an article by a psychologist describing how Cruz manifests childish behavior in an adult? I could go on but I think you get the picture.

There's no comparison.

It's like you're taking every politician except Trump seriously and at face value.

Trump just says what many of them are thinking and he's not into hiding behind a veil of formality and politeness to obscure that.

Honesty and trolling are to be admired in an age where people have political/establishment fatigue.

That's why Trump would have a better chance than Cruz.

I like to see how Cruz is "electable" to the Presidency if he gets the nomination, because I don't at all.

Without going all JSO on you here, according to the polls you're wrong. Cruz is doing better in the RCP avg vs Hillary than Trump.

Trump breaks the monotony of a shrinking GOP base vs a growing Dem base in Presidential elections.

Cruz vs Clinton is still a Clinton victory. And an experienced debater like Clinton will eat Cruz alive in any debate. Just like the "continue, Governor" moment from 2012.

Trump fights dirty, he'll sling mud for days and his IDGAF attitude would make it difficult for Clinton to prepare for.

And it's been that way all along. Not only Cruz. From the very beginning, when you look at general election polling, Trump has NEVER been indicated as a strong general election candidate. He's always been indicated as one of the weaker candidates the Republicans could field. Plus his polling against the two Democratic contenders has gotten worse over time. His position has been degrading.

Cruz is a fundie whack job. Listening to him speak is similar to fingernails on a chalk board. Speak from notes...insert pause for supporters to applaud, grin, speak again.

Cruz is a sneaky, lying, religious fanatic that will send us back to the dark ages. His wife was a high powered employee at Goldman Sachs. Nice partnership.

Earlier, Cruz said he make opposing gay marriage a front and center part of his campaign, but later said he would not make it a priority.

Snake oil salesman. Dishonest nut job.
