How did Trump do last night in Iowa? lol

i believe he did just fine...and now on to other states where he will have even bigger successes.

Guest 02-02-2016 09:46 AM

how did Trump do? since Iowa is a state where delegates are split, the tiny difference between the three top winners will result in almost the same number of delegates for each one. it is not a winner-take-all state....the turnout over all shows that the voters are ready to fight for this country

He is still for very big government, huge military, vast spending, great debt, and basically tearing up the US Constitution.

And you attribute a stock market recover to the Democrats? That's pretty funny. Please give us some examples of what they did to contribute to it's recovery.

Your shade of green as in envy and jealousy is most becoming. Personally, I have no problem with those making one percent and paying my taxes for me.

Yes, the middle class is being depleted. You know why? Because the left's redistribution plans are for the lower class, the lazy and do not help the middle class at all. Small business is not hiring and some are closing up shop because of Obamacare. Wages are kept down so that small business can afford to pay all the extras that this administration requires.

Poverty level is at an all time high.
More people on food stamps in history
Higher health care cost since Obamacare
Lies about Obamacare such as providing more health care when it is just mandatory now and costing more. Even those that couldn't afford it but have to have it now, are paying thousands more in deductible. It won't help them at all.
More people quit the work force than ever before
More people quit looking for employment

This is the longest recession or depression recovery in history. Thanks to this administration.

So, blame it on Bush and blame it on the wealthy. That is the tact of a loser.

This statement is total nonsense. Corporations have moved their production overseas. That is what is hurting the middle class the most, especially people without a college degree. Bulworth in 1998 said it more clearly.Bulworth Quotes | 35 quotes by |

Big business has been steadily moving overseas for many years. Yes, that is hurting all of us, not just the middle class. But, what I said is also true and more related to the present. And there are plenty of people making good money that have NO college. That is not the factor that is pertinent. Even though I can not stand Obama's ideology, policies or choices, I do not give him blame for our industry that moved overseas. There are many factors that occurred a long time before Obama. High union labor costs, high corporate taxes, etc. They have been in play longer than Obama has been president.

But, Obamacare and restrictions are causing small businesses to close up or not hire more employees. That's a fact.

Trump did not do as well as he thought. Rubio did better than anyone thought. And Rubio will do even better in NH.

It's about the jobs, Stupid.

Therefore it would be good for a change, to have a President who's actually had a job--a real job in private sector--and actually earned/produced revenue to make payroll!

It's also about the tax code. It should be totally abolished to wipe out all the loopholes.

Trump's tax plan makes sense and treats income earners with some respect for once:

Dear GOP voters:

This election cycle is so irrational that the only number I am going to watch are the number of delegates won by a candidate. The winner going into the GOP convention must have 1287 delegates.

I agree with just about everything, but the last sentence. The mandate that requires companies with more than 50 employees is not in affect yet. The number of companies with 50 or more employees that don't offer health insurance to their employees is very small. Percent of Private Sector Establishments That Offer Health Insurance to Employees, by Firm Size | The Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation

Some people that don't have a college education are doing well. However, most of these people are in the trades, or government employees. Factory workers are almost a thing of the past in the US. We are now a service country. Even now, good paying service jobs are moving overseas. You call the customer service for some of the large companies, and you can't understand a word the person on the other line is saying.

Although I respect Trump's plan and believe he is a good businessman, I am a firm believer that EVERYONE should have some skin in the game, and pay their share of taxes. We have way too many folks voting for politicians primarily on what is offered to them, rather than what is good for our country. And that is why all these young college students want to vote for Sanders. He is offering them something that is impossible for him to promise. Free college is impossible without everyone paying for it, for the rest of their lives. That means increased taxes in order to fund that freebie. He also wants to give everyone gov health care. Also at a major cost. But, let's go back to Trump's plan, which is much of what Bush W did too. It made the lower 47% totally free of responsibility by their not paying taxes. EVERYONE can pay taxes according to their ability. We have state sales taxes and no one complains about them. If we did away with income taxes and just charged sales taxes, everyone would contribute. The rich would actually pay more taxes than they are now. The seniors would only pay when they spent money. Their savings where they live off of the interest would be safe from taxation until they spent money.

But, I digress. Trumps plan is all well and good, but not feasible to pay off the year to year deficit, let alone pay down on the national debt.

I am not voting for him, not because of that reason but other reasons.

What we need after Obama is someone that understands the political system and how D.C. works and also be able to work with EVERYONE in the government, without kissing anyone's @ss. That's hard to find, but we do have some decent candidates.

Cruz is not even in my consideration. He is not only abrasive with his own party and not at all liked in congress, but he does not have the experience.

I will vote for any Republican that is nominated, but I will not vote to nominate Cruz or Trump.

I will not disrespect anyone that is planning to vote for one of the GOP candidates that are not my choice, but I will give my reasons while attempting not to disrespect the candidate.

On the other hand, I have no respect for the criminal in the other party or the socialist.
