    Antrhopologists have recently discovered that Homo sapiens (that's modern man) mated with Cro-magnon (that's the "cavemen") so there are neanderthal genes still prevelant in modern society. Trump is aware of this and is counting on the caveman vote to carry the election.

    It's a good plan. In any random group of people, there are more stupid ones than smart ones. If DT can get all the stupid people to vote for him, he's president.

    I really thought the Trump train would be a couple week ride, then a couple more weeks, then a couple months... but he just keeps going. I thought if some of these others get out he fall. But with only Cruz and Kasich left he is still winning.

    Trump is saying things that a lot of people want to hear. Take care of our borders, take care of our soldiers, take care of the police, take care of our current citizens before letting others in. Stand up to Russia, North Korea, Iraq, ISIS.

    If you listen to what he says, he has a lot of positives. No, I have not boarded the Trump train but there are not a lot of good options.

    I do believe if he runs as a independent he is unbeatable. He has a huge following and those followers will not be happy if he goes to the convention with the lead and does not get the nomination.

    Politicians and party leaders on both sides have no one to blame but themselves. Washington is a mess of gridlock and power grabs and a majority of the public is tired of it.

    David, my big fear is if he does go independent and Hillary isn't indicted or tainted even more, she becomes our next President. If he does, I hope you are right about the votes he can generate. I am also not on the Trump train but in spite of some of the crazy and in some cases downright stupid things he says, he is still smarter than who we have and who his predecessor would be if it is indeed Hillary. At least he would surround himself with the best and brightest. Still hoping for Cruz but don't think it can happen. I like poor John, think he is honest and understands how government works but he has problems as well as hasn't won anything nor been even close, beyond Ohio.

    Greetings;

    I guess I am the STUPID one for voting for Trump. I think I have a lot of company, 6 or 8 million or even more.

    Cruz is a slime ball, what he did to Doctor Carson and also in Hawaii shows he does not care how he wins. Don't forget, if he does win he will abolish the IRS in 90 or 100 days.

    Hillary will beat Cruz in an election.

    Trump has a lot of good ideas and he would be a leader. However, the fat cats in Washington don't want him to upset the Apricot. I will admit, Trump needs to be more Presidential. Time will tell.

    I like that better then apple cart, I just hope I (I mean Siri) can spell that.

    I agree with you Capt. about Cruz. I would like to vote for Gov. Kasich, over Secretary Clinton, but worry if the house and senate are still Republican majorities, just look at some states that turned all Republican and where they are at now. People more worried about religious freedoms, stifling voting rights, and such rather then working to fix tax rates and make it easier for business and middle class folks.

    Before jumping on that Trump Train, anyone catch the transcript of his, was it Washington Post or New York Time editorial board meeting? He was asked how he would handle ISIS, and he totally dodged the question by changing the subject? I don't care who he has around him, I was ok with who President Bush surrounded himself with, all former administration officials and then look at poor Secretary Powell getting thrown under the bus by puppet master Vice President Chaney, until President Bush's second term where he distanced himself, brought in Secretary Gates, to fix the problem at the Pentagon. I want to see names of Trump's people, and like I said, that didn't seem to help us during the Bush years.

    I don't know about you all, (well yes I do know about most of you) but I honestly would prefer we just let President Obama stay in office over all of these choices. He is more centrists then any of them on most issues. Although I do like the comment above about Vice-President Biden (Uncle Joe) stepping up, even if it was just for 4 years. Or the rumor of a Clinton/Kasich ticket. (That rumor might have come from Colorado or is it Oregon or Washington?)

    Hello Mel;

    If Trump gets to 1237 delegates and the big shots won't give him the nomination, I will vote for Hillary. If that happens or they shaft Trump in other ways, Hillary will bury whomever the good ole boys elect.

    Trump did point out Wisconsin has 100,000 illegals and the people are supporting them through their taxes.

    I did hear on the news today that the U.S. has about 16 million illegals and they keep coming.

    Why would anyone want to be President. Where is Tracy when you need him!!!!!!!!!!!!

    It won't be only stupid people voting for Trump, but that is his base.

    Cruz is a slime ball, (we certainly agree on this point) what he did to Doctor Carson and also in Hawaii shows he does not care how he wins. Don't forget, if he does win he will abolish the IRS in 90 or 100 days.

    Hillary will beat Cruz in an election. She would beat Trump too, and I can't stand Hillary either.

    Trump has a lot of good ideas (name one, besides the cheese thing) and he would be a leader. However, the fat cats in Washington don't want him to upset the Apricot. I will admit, Trump needs to be more Presidential. Time will tell.

    I can't vote for Trump. I like to travel and meet people from other culture's too much.

    I can't vote for Sanders. Too many of our brothers spilled their blood fighting pinkos, why would I vote for one now?

    I've resigned myself to Hillary.

    That's a dull, jagged, rusty sward to fall on. R.I.P.

    It is... I did it before and survived though when I voted for Ralph Nader just to see if I would be followed by mysterious trench coat guys in pickups here.

    Voting for Hillary is probably the best move for your personal safety. If there is any candidate that would send the clandestine hit squad because you didn't vote for him/her it would be Hillary.

    Watch your back...

    If I wouldn't see that TexArkansan on Facebook or my fantasy leagues, I might have thought that is what happened to ole Peach.
