If nothing else- Deporting 12 million illegal aliens will generate jobs here in America to do it so win-win.

Can people interviewing the mindless zombies opposing and disparaging Trump as anti-immigrant, anti-woman, and racist in the news segments please do the following?

Pull up the definitions of "immigrant" and "illegal immigrant" on their phone and show it to them please and ask them to explain why they have a problem with controlling ILLEGAL immigration? Basically point to "immigrant" and say this is "OK", point to "ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT" by definition, "NOT OK".

Ask them if Trump is racist, why are intelligent, educated, people like Dr. Carson, Herman Cain, Geraldo Rivera, etc. and many many other minorities supporting Trump? Have they even opened their ears and listened to any of them or others around them with differing views, and dissected their insight with rational thought and not media headline emotion and regurgitation?

Trump anti-woman? While he may have said some not so nice things about A FEW of them, even Megan Kelly who was the target of some of those comments has buried the hatchet. That doesn't make him anti-woman. Who among us hasn't said something disparaging about someone of the opposite sex in their lifetime? Herein lies the crux of this whole "issue", context and situation. I'm not saying it is OK as a matter of habit, but we are all human and it can and does happen without making the individual anti-opposite sex. What about Sarah Palin, Harris Faulkner, etc.?

The NY Post endorsed Trump in the Rep primary elections.

Given that the Post is owned by Rupert Murdoch, and that Megyn Kelly just went to see Trump and "mend fences", this could be a shift from Murdoch's hard core anti-Trump position.

"Trump’s language, too, has too often been amateurish, divisive — and downright coarse.

But what else to expect from someone who’s never been a professional politician and reflects common-man passions?

Indeed, his political incorrectness is one of his great attractions — it proves he’s not one of “them.” He’s challenging the victim culture that has turned into a victimizing culture .

In the general election, we’d expect Trump to stay true to his voters — while reaching out to those he hasn’t won yet.

Trump is now an imperfect messenger carrying a vital message.

He has the potential — the skills, the know-how, the values — to live up to his campaign slogan: to make America great again.

For those reasons, The Post today endorses Donald Trump in the GOP primary."

"Illegal immigrant" is a senseless term. It's like saying "married bachelor." An "immigrant," by definition, is someone who is following a legal, orderly process to gain citizenship. My grandparents were immigrants.

If you cross a border into another country, you might be a refugee. But that too has a specific definition, and the Mexicans, Hondurans, Guatemalans, etc., who are pouring over the southern border don't fit that definition.

They are aliens, or, if you want a more loaded term-- which would apply to the gang-bangers, criminals and terrorists sprinkled among them-- invaders.

Republican and Democrat "elites" have their own selfish reasons for wanting all these illegal aliens in our country, and they have sold it to many in the country under the guise of "compassion," "tolerance," and "diversity." The gullible have bought it.

As a result, self-contradicting terms, "illegal immigrants" and "undocumented immigrants", have entered the mainstream of our language.

That we would be tearing into Trump and Cruz is mind boggling.

Listen to Hillary.

She will be president if the Republican nominee fails to beat her.

And according to the TV news a little while ago, neither the hildabeast nor bernie talked about the economy!!

And, either of them will put the last bullet into the head of our economy and nation.

My suggestion is that the feds give the illegals a time period, like 30 days, to leave the country on their own. No harm, no foul. Then apply for legal entry.

Any illegal found in the country after the 30 days deported and their entire family, in perpetuity, banned from ever entering the country again.

Caught in the country illegally again 5 years on the big rock pile, making them into small rocks. And deportation.

Until this country starts actually following and abiding by the law, things will never get better.

This!

And all the kudos about his doing so much for Ohio? Remember, if they had not found oil there, the place would be a economic dust bowl.

And Kasich did not discover, or produce, the oil.

Given his other "political" achievements, I find it hard to believe 5% of the crap being pushed by establishment types, and the news media. He is anti-gun, has supported democrat programs that any thinking person would realize is bad for the country.

In short, a vote for Kasic may (I say MAY) be better than a vote for the hildabeast or bernie.

Apprentice "stars" betray The Donald

Prosecutors in Palm Beach County, Florida announced Thursday that a potential criminal battery case against Donald Trump's campaign manager is dead in the water, calling into question the version of events presented by a reporter who filed the criminal complaint.


One witness told police his eyes were fixed on Michelle Fields, the journalist who claimed Corey Lewandowski battered her – and her actions 'looked like a fraudulent slip-and-fall.'

Police in Jupiter, Florida released video of their interview with Michael Spellman on Thursday, along with a more formal statement that he wrote immediately afterward.
Spellman, the president of a glass technology company based in Jupiter, says on camera that Fields' reaction to Lewandowski separating her from Trump after a March 8 press conference was 'disproportionate' and 'bizarre.'

'At first I thought she was drunk,' he recalled.
State Attorney Dave Aronberg and his chief assistant Adrienne Ellis considered Spellman's statement along with those of other witnesses, ultimately finding that there was conflicting evidence that would kill their chances of convicting Lewandowski.

Among other inconsistencies, investigators found that Fields began the altercation by leaving the press area, entering the 'protective bubble' of Secret Service and staff security surrounding Trump, touching him in the process.

Ellis said Fields told her office that she had never touched Trump, but added: 'That's not what we see captured on the video.'

The video evidence shows the Republican front-runner pulling away from her after she makes contact.

During a video walk-through of the incident, Ellis said the decision not to prosecute Lewandowski was in large part colored by the fact that Fields had first made physical contact with Trump as he walked out of a ballroom at his Jupiter country club.

That's when Lewandowski reached in and pulled her away, the video shows.

'We're not charging him because he was reacting to what he perceived as a potential threat to someone that he is in charge of protecting, so to speak,' she explained.

'He just kinda reacted and did what he needed to do.'

This is interesting and a sign of the future. What if say Google put negative Trump Stories at the top of any Trump Search?

Facebook denies that it would ever try to influence the election

Several of the questions concerned either the company’s business position or internal matters, but one was about politics: “What responsibility does Facebook have to prevent President Trump in 2017?” Some employees apparently voted for the question to be posed to the CEO.
Gizmodo speculated that Facebook could downplay stories and posts related to Trump in its New Feed, potentially putting a damper on his campaign.

Bump for Trump!

I stopped following this thread for a while. But I am starting to think Trump could win. I know the polls show him losing to Hillary (what the fuck is wrong with people). But I think even some of the idiots that think they are liberal like what Trump is saying. I love Cruz but as with any real conservative, he gives too many votes to the libs because of the religious and seriously conservative ideals. Now I subscribe to all of those conservative ideals. But I have no misgivings about the fact that a lot of people aren't really that conservative. Mostly I think they aren't smart enough to know they should be conservative. But nevertheless, they will vote for Trump. They wouldn't vote for Cruz.

I believe Trump will trump the bitch, on the other hand Cruz can not and will not win against that evil bitch. Something about Cruz that I can't describe, I don't believe he is as godly as the people on his camp think about him.

Maybe Trump isn't going to be the worlds bitch to push around like obama? Might even lead to war- but not because of Trump but because of the loser he replaced.

Only way I can see a Cruz candidacy losing to HRC is either through Democrat fraud or spite votes from the Trump supporters. I have to say, though, I've never thought about Cruz' godliness or the lack thereof. We're not voting for a Pope, we're voting on a platform.

I'm a Cruz supporter, but Trump isn't my "enemy". That's the Democrat candidate and to that end Trump has my vote if he's the nominee.

Donald Trump is poised for a landslide victory this week

Donald Trump, the candidate of bombast, braggadocio, and personal attacks, was suddenly subdued.

He stood before a hometown crowd in Manhattan's Grand Hyatt hotel. He never mentioned his chief rival, Sen. Ted Cruz, by name, instead extolling the virtues of the "New York values" Cruz casually dismissed in a January debate.

And he talked about how those "New York values" are central to the theme of his campaign.

"In our darkest moments as a city, we showed the world the very, very best in terms of bravery, heart and soul of America," Trump said, in reference to the September 11, 2001, terror attacks on US soil.

"These are the values we need to make America great again."

Trump is solidifying his position with just days to go until the consequential New York primary, as the GOP frontrunner is set up to romp through the state.

With the delegate-rich state of New York set to hold its primary on Tuesday, Trump holds a monumental, near-32 point lead in the RealClearPolitics average of several polls.

For Trump, New York could hardly be more important coming off a double-digit loss to Cruz in Wisconsin's primary earlier this month.

So far in polls, Trump has maintained above a 50% level of support there — key to securing the treasure trove of delegates the Empire State provides.

Rules in the state allow for delegates to be allocated proportionally if the winner finishes below 50%. Fourteen of the state's 95 delegates are allocated by statewide results, while the remaining 81 are awarded on a three-per-district for the state's 27 congressional districts.

So if Trump were to hit 50% in each congressional district, he would walk away with all 95 delegates.

Should Trump romp through the state Tuesday, he'd need to secure roughly 53% of the remaining delegates to clinch the nomination before the July convention. A resounding victory would restore Trump's momentum, giving him a better chance of locking up the nomination and avoiding a contested convention.

But should he lose chunk of delegates by finishing below 50% throughout the state and in various congressional districts, Trump's rivals would be more likely to stop him from hitting the needed 1,237 delegates before the July convention.

"I think Donald Trump has basically hit the point where if he does not get over 50% and all 95 delegates, he has underperformed," New York-based GOP strategist Evan Siegfried told Business Insider.

Siegfried said last week that the most important storyline to follow coming out of the Wisconsin primary and into the Empire State was just how large Trump's win would be.

Both Cruz and John Kasich, the Ohio governor, have campaigned throughout the state in hopes of picking up delegates by keeping Trump below 50% in various congressional districts.

But nearly two weeks' worth of campaigning have done little to dent Trump's strong numbers in his home state.

"At this point, both Cruz and Kasich have worked in New York and they're saying, 'Listen, Trump is likely to come away with 60% of the vote and all 95 delegates, and this is a battle of attrition. Why are we going to waste our time and money here when we could go to closer states, or states that are closer, and have a better return on investment?'" Siegfried said.

He added that "everything stayed the status quo" in the New York GOP primary race during the past week.

"He was going to win New York, so any claims that the momentum was shifting one way or the other just really aren't there," Siegfried said. "The people who are against Trump and for Trump have not really seen much movement either way."

Trump's even fared well in an area where he has rarely seen success along the campaign trail — with endorsements of local publications.

This week, Trump received the endorsement of both the New York Post and the New York Observer. (Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, is the Observer's publisher.) The New York Daily News, another major local publication, endorsed Kasich, who's spent increased time railing on both Trump and Cruz as he campaigns throughout the state.

Despite Trump's strong numbers and wide array of support, Siegfried said there are Republicans in New York who don't like Trump. However, they feel no love toward Cruz, Trump's main competitor nationally.

Polls have shown that Cruz has failed to consolidate the anti-Trump support. A Wall Street Journal/NBC New York poll released Friday afternoon found Cruz in third place with just 16% support. Kasich appears to have vaulted into the clear second-place slot behind Trump.

Cruz's standing in New York was evident during his speech at Thursday night's New York GOP gala, where he was practically ignored.

"They do not feel any love toward Ted Cruz because of his 'New York values' comment," Siegfried said. "That really damaged him with people here."

But New York Republicans have been cold toward Cruz long before that remark in a January debate that nevertheless continues to follow Cruz on the campaign trail.

Cruz voted against aid for victims of Hurricane Sandy, and he also opposed a 9/11 health bill for first responders.

"He stood against both," Siegfried said. "And that effort, every New York Republican came out in favor of both. Ted Cruz stood in the way of both. That's what really burned him. He can go around and say New York Values and could be talking about liberalism, but with New York Republicans, that's not a defense of Ted Cruz's record when it comes to New York."
