    Absolutely tearing up the GOP polls, confronting anybody AND everybody in his way.....MEDIA, ALL other PRES candidates, anybody who dares speaking ill will about him....did you catch the breastfeeding attorney during a deposition a few years back... Watch out...he is making BOH's bullying look like a picnic in the park...

    Going to be an interesting week leading up to the FOX debates next Thursday...I'm glad they are changing format into  two debates to GIVE every candidate an opportunity..despite the earlier afternoon start for lower polling candidates...I'm sure EVERY candidate is DYING to get a piece of TRUMP meat next Thursday...should make for some GREAT THEATER..

    Is this guy the current "flavor" of the week and going to fizzle Pat Buchanon style and eventually fold to the GOP establishment......or keep being a golden "opportunist" and hitting a cross section of the electorate....Believe it or not, he is actrually starting to strike a chord within the low information crowd which is WHAT it's going to take to eventually reside at 1600 Penn Ave...I think DEMS realize it too...They don't have very much to counter TRUMP's brashness, personality, and actually, "some" likability in that he is not a politician and ..says..He has plenty of money...he just "WANTS TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN" campaign slogan...very smart move considering the currrent  weak, DIVISIVE  leadership.by POTUS

    I say TRUMP will adjust sooner than later and REALIZE what a great position he has put himself in...and MANAGE it well...I even think RNC finally realizes the more they bash the DONALD..the more EXPLOSIVE the response (baiting /forcing himself into a corner he can't get out of ) other than drop the nuclear option of going 3rd PARTY

    Lastly, for as much pandering TRUMP is force feeding the "crazies"...he may be extremely adamant on some important issues...IMMIGRATION, TRADE,  FOREIGN POLICY...I say deep down he is gonna take some center, center left , stances on some policies that will upset the base but the GOP will have to realize to win WH...gotta "compromise" on some of these issues which SHOULD help him attract some of that electorate....He WILL be for IMMIGRATION reform..just watch...that'll get the Latino vote behind him...

    Love him or hate him...by light years, he shows more positive leadership skills than the entire GOP field put together and that's why I think he is resonating so strongly with so many...

    Just my three cents...and the Cova's brothers say...

     to all...nice to finally see someone stand up to this corrrupt political ruling class polluting Washinton D.C....

    Well, the Cova's response is deafening.... Must be that everyone agreed with all my opines of that day...

    The DONALD had a great week leading uo to tonight's debate...usually helps when you can keep your piehole shut for that long.....His poll numbers are up and HILLARY is getting closer and closer to being disqualified for her criminal actions obstructing GOVT laws on handling State dept "classified communications"....gotta hand it to the judge who gave her(and her 2 cohorts)  until tomorrow to cough up what they did with all their communique'' under PENALTY of perjury...wonder if BOH has anything to do with all of this??

    What's so ironic about tonight is that other than the bottom 3 or 4 of GOP field....ALL these candidates including TRUMP are soooo much better than ANY (D) candidate....it's ridiculus....Bobby Jindal would be sooo much better than any DEM currently in their field....it's not even close in comparitive quality....

    I look for some of mid streamers to make their mark...hopefully Dr. Carson... I think Rubio gains tonight as well as  Kasich who owns HFA today...In second tier,,JIndal and hopefully, Karly will move up, I kind of like her... Good riddance to Perry, Graham, and those other bottom feeders,,take Krispy Kreme while you are at it..They really need to narrow this field down substantially...

    lastly, The Donald..whose gonna start the fireworks with him tonight cause you can damn well BET they will be exploding...word is the establishment want to take him down a few notches tonight because of all that nervous $$$...I say he doesn't FLINCH a bit and will RELISH any chance to attack and make mince meat of anyone who dare fukk with him...

    Enjoy the most watched PRIMARY debate we will ever see in our lifetimes.....very, very important in determining, potentially, the future history of our great civilized society considering the  precipece we are sadly teetering on presently..

    I agree 100% crusher. Hillary 'might' have to vote from prison next year. Ironically a black judge appointed by Bill going after her like nobody before. Looking forward to the debate tonight. I love the way Trump can talk about things unlike the others who walk around on egg shells. i.e. immigration

    trump will win gop nomination...personally i could see it being a landslide and not being remotely even close

    People like to say "oh its name recognition..he'll fade" and "oh rudy giuliani was in first at this time 4 years ago"

    Did rudy giuliani have almost 500 thousand new people follow him on twitter in the span of 2 months..

    and was rudy giuliani DOMINATING the media like trump is now?

    Trump is getting a billion dollars worth of media attention and this will not slow down...he is a ratings god.

    There is still value in 7/1 or 8/1 folks.  I urge you all to not be foolish, and get this while you can

    I am not so sure the folks will hold his intelligence against him. The last few elected have been pretty bright. Ivy League and Rhodes and all of that.  I think Trump's intelligence will just add to his appeal---along with his business savvy and willingness to talk directly about the issues.  
    I don't think the electorate wants a dumb guy. They prefer intelligence. If that is the only two options---he would be fine.  It's the other issues he has that might be a problem for him.

    First, I don't mean to have 2 threads near the top BUT......I think it's very keen of The DONALD to meet with MEXICO head of chamber..the guy that told all mexicans to boycott anything to do with Trump bizness..  Guess the guy was surprised what a "good listener" Donald was....even heard he was "shocked" with his meeting.....  The DONALD ain't stupid...his a gazziolionairre but a very saavy one even though he is very explosive, especially when it comes to pretty Megyn Kelly.....

       I can easily see him sitting at his desk, ala Celebrity Apprentice..listening to his hound dogs before making important decisions which I feel woukld be a "good thing"..I certainly hope he turns off the "tele" for military advice though.

    Another good thing I was informed of today 40% of legal Mexicans believe in deporting "illegal" Mexicans......40%...Unbeeleevable..

    The SILENT MAJORITY is slowly awakening.........

    Yep. Just felt it was flat at best.  Hard to say any of these folks lack intelligence.  Obviously all of them are quite bright. You simply don't do as well in school or life as they have while lacking intelligence. But lacking or not using something else---that is a different story altogether.

    So, here we are on the "EVE" of the second debate...CNN's @ Renaldo Maximus's Presidential Library....surely to be historic ratings with all the Pre Debate CNN commercials.....

    What's going to happen? The Donald made an appearence down at  AAC last night...just a few blocks away from where I was working...Reportedly, 15 K inside, 1,000 screaming Mexican- Americans outside spewing hate towards patriots just trying to reclaim their country ....Local hispanic stations broadcasting LIVE just outside DIRK and MARK CUBAN'S home court

    Word is Debate goal is to tear down everybody's favorite Apprentice King...Supposively, Carly has direct orders from RNC...I predict DONALD rips her to shreds.....AND anybody who else challenges him...he WILL always reply..."you're a LOSER"..."look at the polls"" and rightfully considering the unbeelavable passion generated by Mr Trump last night..despite being in RED MEAT TX territory...i know it's the same ole rhetoric he's proclaiming...but if it works, why change it...the Donald is learning real quick how the political game works...STRAIGHT OUT OF THE DEMOCRATIC PLAYBOOK... ATTACK YOUR OPPONENTS at ANY and ALL COSTS...something the GOP establishment is very afraid to do... (those guys are always AFRAID of offending someone/organization in fear of backlash) when that one attribute has sent TRUMP stock soaring ....

    America is awakening....if kanya West wants to run in 2020..he'll have a very diificult time taking down a 2nd term Donald Trump who will easily MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN....

    Again Cova's brothers, the DONALD is intelligent to take some center left posturing to attract many independents AND some Dems to capture the WH in 2016....and more importantly, to rid DC of the stench of the Karl Rove's and their ilk...some of those guys are the ABSOLUTE worst of "playing along to get along"...Good riddance....time for a REAL: CHANGE..enjoy the debate all....

    Donald Trump is not electable.  He would have us in another war within weeks of taking office.  A Rand Paul / Rubio ticket could take Billary down but Donald Trump?  It's a joke.  Forgetaboutit.

    I say TRUMP will adjust sooner than later and REALIZE what a great position he has put himself in...and MANAGE it well...I even think RNC finally realizes the more they bash the DONALD..the more EXPLOSIVE the response (baiting /forcing himself into a corner he can't get out of ) other than drop the nuclear option of going 3rd PARTY

    Lastly, for as much pandering TRUMP is force feeding the "crazies"...he may be extremely adamant on some important issues...IMMIGRATION, TRADE,  FOREIGN POLICY...I say deep down he is gonna take some center, center left , stances on some policies that will upset the base but the GOP will have to realize to win WH...gotta "compromise" on some of these issues which SHOULD help him attract some of that electorate....He WILL be for IMMIGRATION reform..just watch...that'll get the Latino vote behind him...

    Love him or hate him...by light years, he shows more positive leadership skills than the entire GOP field put together and that's why I think he is resonating so strongly with so many...

    Just my three cents...and the Cova's brothers say...

     to all...nice to finally see someone stand up to this corrrupt political ruling class polluting Washinton D.C....


    Wow brotha's...a post even more IMPRESSIVE SEVEN(yes lucky7) months later....

    What's really impressive when a diehard DEm friend admitted to me today that if Americans are stupid enough to VOTE TRUMP they get what they deserve...Easiest reply I EVER EVER had to give....HOW in the world did BOH get ELECTED Twice??


    I KNOW all you educated political Cova's members loathe the DONALD but this man is RUNNING his campaign like a blue blooded DEMOCRAT....Attack, mislead a little, pander to those liberal DEMS that hate Israel, love PLANNED PARENTHOOD which REALLY does tons of good for WOMENS HEALTH.. real smart move by TRUMP...and EVEN goes as far as wearing that BLUE TIE with an open coat jacket during the debate last night....intelligent to attract those low info voters that might be tuning in...

    I ADMIT right now if he goes up against HILLARY this election will be the BIGGEST ROUT since 1980.....

    AMERICA IS PISSED at ALL THESE DO NOTHING POLITICIANS..and we the PEOPLE are going to get rid of these bums who are "all talk" and no action..TRUMP is correct when he says politicians suck...

    The USA is ready for a private sector approach to running our country and I say at least give it a try...

    Get PREPARED for PRESIDENT TRUMP...

     to all...nice to finally see someone stand up to this corrrupt political ruling class polluting Washinton D.C....


    Wow brotha's...a post even more IMPRESSIVE SEVEN(yes lucky7) months later....

    What's really impressive when a diehard DEm friend admitted to me today that if Americans are stupid enough to VOTE TRUMP they get what they deserve...Easiest reply I EVER EVER had to give....HOW in the world did BOH get ELECTED Twice??


    I KNOW all you educated political Cova's members loathe the DONALD but this man is RUNNING his campaign like a blue blooded DEMOCRAT....Attack, mislead a little, pander to those liberal DEMS that hate Israel, love PLANNED PARENTHOOD which REALLY does tons of good for WOMENS HEALTH.. real smart move by TRUMP...and EVEN goes as far as wearing that BLUE TIE with an open coat jacket during the debate last night....intelligent to attract those low info voters that might be tuning in...

    I ADMIT right now if he goes up against HILLARY this election will be the BIGGEST ROUT since 1980.....

    AMERICA IS PISSED at ALL THESE DO NOTHING POLITICIANS..and we the PEOPLE are going to get rid of these bums who are "all talk" and no action..TRUMP is correct when he says politicians suck...

    The USA is ready for a private sector approach to running our country and I say at least give it a try...

    Get PREPARED for PRESIDENT TRUMP...

    It is fun to read the old posts... some people get it, and others continue to be soooo confused!

    Yes Trump vs Hillary will be a landslide.  I also think GOP is due to pick up additional Senate seats.
