"I support Donald Trump. Ted Cruz is my second choice. Never Jeb!"


Trump fights. Trump wins. I want an Alpha Male who is going to take it to the enemy. I am tired of supporting losers. I used to vote for President based on their positions. Now I am going to vote for President based on emotion. I want a strong man to be president, an Alpha male, somebody who is going to rip the other side a new one. I am tired of losing the fight before we even have a fight. That is why I support Donald Trump. Ted Cruz is my second choice. Never Jeb!

he is not going to be an easy candidate to beat.

Folks who support him aren't just supporters, he is more than a candidate to them. They identify their rage at whatever entitled thing they think they should have but aren't getting with his anger and outlandish statements.

Trump will not be a pushover. I think a lot of angry white bigots (probably many who don't regularly vote) will get out and vote.

He's not going to be derailed by ugly statements or not knowing foreign policy.

They want change every 8 years and the president in office is normally the party that is changed. Has been going this way for decades. That is why whoever is the democratic presidential nominee must get out the vote and praise the direction president Obama has been doing. We are at a disadvantage that is not discussed. Three consecutive party terms is rare.
