There is no doubt that "The Don" with his damnation of so many things that Conservatives are opposed to has a following that puts him at the top of the list of GOP candidates.
Many of the candidates have burned bridges with Trump and made an enemy that due to an ego the size of Mt.Rushmore, Trump would never support but just for a second, suppose that this is simply a ploy by Trump to pull hard core conservatives into his camp, while some other candidate pulls the moderates and independents into his camp and all of a sudden you have the majority of Republicans and Conservatives all moving in the same direction.
I really don't think Trump wants to become president. Why should he. Being president would put him in a box that would go against too many things his empire was built on plus he does have a lot of baggage that will become an issue at some point.
Granted my Crystal Ball is been wrong from time to time but what I see happening is that at some point Trump will announce that he has decided that for the "good of the party" and other reasons he has decided to end his run for the White House.
Next Mr. Trump will ask all his loyal followers to get behind him and help elect candidate so and so in 2016 that he thinks would led America back to fame and fortune.
If I'm right, Trump has conned America's hard core conservatives, middle of the road conservatives and independents under one tent that could led us up the road to the White House in 2016.
So there you have it folks. P.T. Barnum is credited by many to have said, "There's a sucker born every minute." There's just one thing wrong with that, P.T Barnum didn't say it.
A man named David Hannum said it about P.T.Barnum.
Just a little tidbit of "In your face" because I'm feeling cranky this morning.[}:)]

That is why he is making the news.
The news wants to destroy him.
The news will destroy him.
The narrative that he has the courage to say what we are thinking while the others cower behind PC and politics is, almost by definition, false.
He has no doubt focused group everything he is saying, crafting his message and approach to tap into the emotional response of those disaffected voters.
It is a short term strategy of self promotion, and may very well be designed to position himself as a kingmaker. It is obviously not a strategy to become president.

Unless you are doing something like that
how would you know snit from shine-ola? [;)]
Wow, now that comment showed great insight and added greatly to the conversation sir.
Oh and by the way, Shinola is all one word.[;)]
He is saying out loud what most (R) scum won't say but needs said.

Yep, I give him credit for telling the truth about the Obama created border crisis.
The "news" that wants to and will destroy him is the democrat party.
This election will parallel the Bush-Perot-Clinton election, where
Perot pulled votes away from Bush and Clinton got elected
Jeb Bush will get nominated.
Trump will then run as an independent pulling votes away from Bush, and
Hillary gets elected.[xx(][xx(][:(!]......it's depressing[B)]
Whether he knows it or not he's running defense for Hillary by taking flak that should be directed at her from the media which will enable her to slide into the White House [:(!]. A 3rd party run like Perot in 92 will put her in office just like it did her husband with only 42% of the vote. Why change playbooks if the one used before was successful ? This is their game plan to victory and unfortunately we and our constitution are screwed again ! [:(]
I believe this too.
I don't want to see light socialists as Republicans.
My own Congressman sickens me. Adam Kinzinger's talks tough on FOX NEWS but has no interest in voting against Obama.
He'll it used to be Democrats that have the spine of earthworms. Now it is Republicans.
I hope Trump shows them it is OK to ha E a backbone.

I'm suspicious of anyone who bashes Trump. What is their motivation? They must be a liberal Democrat? A run-of-the-mill mainstream suburban corporate type conformist? A RINO? A Media type?
Someone who does not want another arrogant idiot as President?
