I am not a Trump fan, but I do see the positive in having him draw the spotlight. Trump may be boorish, but he says what a lot of America wants to hear. They want someone to acknowledge their fears and worries. Why should the liberals be the only ones that can disparage everything in America that is what makes us strong? They talk dirt about conservatives, calling us racist, sexists and bigots. In the past, Republicans have held their tongues, trying to be PC and not offend anyone. Trump doesn't worry about it. I bet he never thought he would get this far. I bet he never even seriously considered the possibility of getting the nomination. He probably didn't even want it, until he accrued such a large following. No one would even be listening to the GOP campaign if not for Trump. No one even listens to the Democrat debates or listen to them speak. Trump speaks for a lot of us. He does what the Tea Party couldn't accomplish. Now, I hope that voters will realize that he has had his place in this campaign but now it's about time to seriously consider someone to give their vote to for president. I don't believe that Trump will gt the vote. THere is a big difference between polls and votes, especially in this case. America loves or hates Trump, but they will/should take their vote seriously.

Today, there are two viable GOP candidates, Cruz and Rubio. That can change before or during the primaries. There are others that may suddenly climb once the voting starts.

At this time, if I was to cast my vote, it would be for Rubio. He has the best chance of beating Hilary in the general. There is no perfect candidate, so some are going to have to hold their noses and vote for the one that WILL beat Hillary. America can not afford another Clinton in the White House, especially a criminal like Hillary. What would parents tell their children, that it is OK to break the law because they can grow up to be president?

Remember, there was only one PERFECT man in this world, and he was murdered on the cross by non-believers. There is no perfect candidate, so don't give up just because your guy isn't in the consideration.

Rubio is great candidate. ALL politicians can be criticized but he KNOWS the issues in detail, he KNOWS the problems inherent and he KNOWS solutions.

But again, he is at the mercy of the blowhard leading the polls (who do they talk to..they cannot possibly be thinking Republicans) He has been and will be ridiculed PERSONALLY by Trump because Trump cannot speak to the isssues.
If he is stumped he will always go to the lowest possible denominator.

It appears from some posts on here, that some want that kind of person as their President. I prefer someone with knowledge and a vocabulary that does not have to demean anyone else. Funny, we criticize the current President for so many of the things we seem to like about Trump.

No one HAS to vote for Trump. For crying out loud, the election isn't even here yet. Instead of bashing Trump like the liberals, talk about the good in the other candidates so people can make their decisions based on fact. Trump is in the spotlight, so no one is hearing what the candidates have to say. You do NOT have to vote for Trump. There are still a lot of candidates to chose from.

Unfortunately, Obama got elected just because of his harsh rhetoric. That's why there are so many following Trump. No one wants boring. Everyone wants someone that will look good on SNL, a celebrity. Well, we have seen what a celebrity is good for, in the last seven years. Failure.

Time to get realistic folks. Trump is not my first choice and I hope not yours either, because we do need someone that knows how to straighten this mess out. Romney is not available, so we still need someone that can speak well and also get things done.

I'm still looking at Rubio.

Tell this to the media....tell this to the candidate who are unable to be heard in anyway at all because of Trump (his game plan by the way)

I am bashing Trump as a very strong Republican as I watch this man destroy my party.

If people want to make their decisions based on facts, that would be wonderful but they are only hearing on candidate who has no facts...just bluster

Vote Trump

Pretty much knowing the response to expect, allow me to ask.....

Please give us some specific reasons for your endorsement mentioning one or two specific and viable programs he has given with detail ?????

The generality of "making America great again" is nice words and rings like "Hope" and "Change we can believe in"

I can't wait for the primaries so we can stop listening to all the BS about and from what the polls say.

Well, I for one am not going to sit around whining like liberals and bashing the other candidates. We have some good Republican candidates representing us, so the only problem is choosing just one. Kind of like standing in a donut shop, having to choose from all the great flavors. Instead of focusing on the negatives of Trump, start making a decision on which one you want for the primary. Since I am more concerned about shrilary getting in there, I will choose the candidate that I think can beat her. Since ALL the candidates are better than her, I only have to figure in the one that can get more votes than her and vote for him. It does not matter which one is my favorite. I have to "compromise" and choose the one that can get the majority. All he has to do is sign Republican legislature, not much else. If he can stay away from the EO pen, we can all be happy. Lets put socialism where it belongs, in Europe. Let them fail, not us. WE have been doing exceptionally well until recently with our private sector system of capitalism. Smaller government and less nanny overreach is the way to go.

There are only two issues that are of importance:
National security
The economy

Kill the terrorists and secure our secrets
Allow the private sector to dictate the economy, not the gov.

Don't worry, it will be Rubio that gets the nomination. Not the best choice, but better than any that the Dems have to offer.

Ann Coulter said that Rubio is too short to win.

That's because she is too tall, Chi. In my opinion, Hillary is too ugly, and I don't mean that physically, although................

Maybe just maybe, Ann Coulter wasn't talking about Rubio's height, when she said he was too short. Since her(?) restroom of choice is the men's room, she may have a first hand knowledge of Rubio's private parts. You know she wouldn't be looking at the ceiling, when getting rid of some of her liquid poison.

Every politician out there lies. Whatever plan they come up with never makes it through Congress unscathed. In my lifetime I have never seen anybody say so many outrageous things and not be castigated like Trump. He is still leading the polls. Maybe all the thoughtful people here in TV are wrong.
