| Post subject: | doyle: Good ovservations |
| You make some good questions. I don't see how Trump can get the nomination with most of the so-called Establishment pulling and planning against him. However the majority of Republicans trusted McCain and Romney but neither of them won.Most of us trusted the Establishment when they said if we would give them the House, and then later the Senate, that they would put a stop to some of Obama's actions on immigration and Obama-Care. And then, they did exactly the opposite by passing Obama's complete budget without a fight.At this point, I trust Trump more than them. Their terror of him, may be even more reason to vote for him.Doyl |

| What is 'the establishment' really? Is there some core unified group? I'm sure there are some major powerbrokers, the type of folks who might have wanted to see Jeb Bush win the nomination or some other more typical candidate.I do see how Republicans could do some unusual things to keep a man from winning who insults people left and right, who suggested going after terrorists' families and taking oil as tribute from countries that we invade.I don't know the rules, but if there is some way the candidates who didn't get the most votes can give them all to someone besides Trump, maybe it will turn out for the best. They might alienate the radical pro-Trump segment. But if the math works out so that there are more swing voters and non-Trump Republicans in the electorate and Cruz or Kasich or whoever they settle on can beat Hillary (or Sanders if that worked out), then it makes sense to go for it. It reminds me of Andrew Jackson. Jackson was the type of man that a lot of people in positions of influence thought absolutely should not be president of the United States. He campaigned the next time complaining about the 'corrupt bargain' and won it. Trump's getting kind of old for the next go round, IMO, if it doesn't work out this way |

| They didn't excite anyone. Trump does, but seemingly mostly non-voters and cross-over Democrats (which I wonder how many of them just do it because they know Hillary already won their party, so they are just hedging their bets by voting for the fringe candidate with no chance in the popular election). Lets do the math though, if Trump is getting nearly double the turnout of a normal primary election, yet only amassing 35% of that vote, doesn't that tell us something? |

| He loves to quote every single poll out there, except the ones that matter the mostGeneral Election: Trump vs. Clinton ABC News/Wash Post Clinton 50, Trump 41 Clinton +9Madame President would like to thank the Republicans for running the only candidate that she could beat. She says we owe you one, or is it three now? |

| Unless the GOP decides they want to win, mark Clinton as in. It is a shew in only if the GOP stays broken. You are wrong (IMO) if you think Hillary is better than TRUMP (assuming he is the nominee). Hillary would be tough to impeach, because she will follow the same plans as Obama. TRUMP will be impeachable, he knows that. I am not afraid of a Trump presidency but I am afraid of Hillary. Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/ |

| I am thinking Cruz cannot beat Hillary. He would not carry the important states he needs. (IMO) Plus TRump supporters will swear or KNow that the establishment killed Trump and will not vote for Cruz. Wrong attitude, but I think it will be so. I will personally vote for the one most likely to have the backing to beat Hillary. Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/ |
