The main groups behind the Crush Trump march from Columbus Circle to Trump Tower scheduled for tomorrow in Manhattan are radical leftists who espouse violence against anyone they consider to be a fascist (they consider Trump a fascist) One of there organizers is pictured on there site, proudly wearing a Bernie Sanders t-shirt.

It’ll be interesting to see what happens. Some trump supporters are going to show up at trump tower, too, to get in the fray. 🙂 Good guys will be infiltrating.

This is probably obvious - but I will say to all Republicans out there who have outstanding primaries or caucuses still to come, how important it is to vote, all the way down to the wire now - right down to California. I contacted my state Republican Office yesterday (just google search and email or call). Washington has a mail in primary this year, which makes it very easy - we mail in a ballot. If you don’t know what to do, call your local Republican office. If you have time, get involved and help your candidate.

Definitely agree with you here. Trump has significantly more delegates than Cruz, but the fight is a long way from over.

Reagan Democrats + 30% of African Americans, + small percentage of Hispanics.

(Trump is polling 70% negative with African Americans, 30% positive) (I don’t know his Hispanic numbers)

Sanders won Michigan, so it is clear it is not necessarily Hillary strong country. The anti-trade thing plays very well there, given the economic woes.

Trump actually did better than Kasich with above demographic in Ohio. Kasich does well with suburbia, high end Dems (Rubio demographic), Trump does much better downscale.

Trump is hugely popular in Florida; I am convinced he will battle Hillary to the last vote, and actually has a good chance to win it; again see above. Florida very similar to Northeast, Trump country.

Thanks. I don’t think I’m any closer to believing that Trump could win those three states, though.

An interesting story that shows the Dems orchestrated the Chicago Protests that shut down the Trump rally.

The police were told to be passive and not control the crowd (no arrests). Even the few people they did arrest (with cause) were immediately released.

If they help Trump couldn’t he be organizing them and then sending the people over to Democratic rallies? Seems to me he could be.
 
But he DID organize the first strip club inside a casino. If wikipedia can be believed.

Donald Trump is now calling for a boycott of Megyn Kelly’s show! What is going on? This is so childish.

Now Fox has responded: Fox News hits Donald Trump for ‘sexist verbal assaults’ on Megyn Kelly
“Donald Trump’s vitriolic attacks against Megyn Kelly and his extreme, sick obsession with her is beneath the dignity of a presidential candidate who wants to occupy the highest office in the land,” the network said in its statement.

Just like he’s organized Mitt Romney, John McCain, Lindsay Gram, Erick Erickson and everybody else who have been against him since the beginning. (Sarc.) 🙂

But the protests are helping him - so far. He could be doing it. I’m not saying he is, just that he could be, then making sure they go to a Democratic rally peacefully. Both parties have tried to make the other look bad for generations.
 
Donald Trump is my second favorite Presidential candidate behind Ted Cruz. Trump has the potential to make America great again. He is strong enough to stand up to the left. I just wish he focused more on same-sex marriage and abortion. He would be a great candidate if he took a strong position on those issues.

This statement from Fox News mentions his “sick obsession”:

It sounds kind of similar to this story in Vanity Fair by Graydon Carter about how Trump is still obsessed after 25 years by the fact that Carter called him a “short-fingered vulgarian”:
Like so many bullies, Trump has skin of gossamer. He thinks nothing of saying the most hurtful thing about someone else, but when he hears a whisper that runs counter to his own vainglorious self-image, he coils like a caged ferret. Just to drive him a little bit crazy, I took to referring to him as a “short-fingered vulgarian” in the pages of Spy magazine. That was more than a quarter of a century ago. To this day, I receive the occasional envelope from Trump. There is always a photo of him—generally a tear sheet from a magazine. On all of them he has circled his hand in gold Sharpie in a valiant effort to highlight the length of his fingers. I almost feel sorry for the poor fellow because, to me, the fingers still look abnormally stubby.

You’d think Trump would have gotten over the dig at him by Carter after twenty five years. I think Carter is right about Trump’s “skin of gossamer” and his behavior does sound abnormally obsessive.

Oh I had forgotten that one. Trump says so much. Oh well. It’s Mar 18, 2016. So I just suppose a month later he merely is confirming what many of us were wondering about anyway. That perhaps he is not a leader afterall. So at least he helped us answer.
