    if obama is the summit, politically speaking, id rather an avalanche. bring on someone who actually has created a job or two and worked in the real world. politically speaking, we dont need anymore career politicians.

    Do you realize Ramos was being a tool? Trump was right in his actions and the polls will reflect that.

    Get out of here with misogynistic shit. His numbers went UP after that.

    There is a reason Trump is leading and just like the GOP big wigs, you've missed the boat as to why.

    Ramos should have waited his turn. hate to say it, I would have tossed him too.

    do you ever wonder why his poll numbers haven't gone over 25-27%? it's because that is the ceiling on his support. as soon as some of the other candidates start dropping out of the race that other 75% will start coalescing around a candidate and Trump will either get mad and run as an indy or say that he did every body a favor by running for President. If the Republican loses, Trump will say I told you so. If the Republican wins he will take the credit for it.

    I'd like to see your facts on these wild assertions.

    You are forgetting that Trump is now only 6 points off HRC and that is the ONLy key metric right now.

    The fringed right would in FACT vote for Trump if he wins the GOP nomination and he very much CAN...

    it doesnt change that hes the leader by a lot. and why hes leading is what matters most. because he resonates with real people. which is what our elected officials are supposed to be. representatives of what and who we are.

    but almost every other candidate on either side couldnt speak open and honestly in a public forum if held at gunpoint in fear of losing votes and their financial backing. this system needs to be blown up. trump may be the only honest speaker we get to witness in our lifetime. and its refreshing, even from a complete asshole.

    He may be winning your heart with these childish antics, but he is a remarkably stupid excuse for a politician who is squandering votes that he is going to need later. There are not enough of the shrinking demographic he is going for to win the Republican nomination, much less the Presidency.

    He is resonating with 25-30% of the Republican party, which equals about 15% of the overall population, hardly a representative slice of the electorate. however, I am certain that this 15% believe that he resonates with "real people" because they believe they are the only "real" Americans out there. you truly do not want this man as your nominee if you are a Republican who wants to win in 2016.
