Q US election: Donald Trump says he could 'shoot people' and not lose voters Date January 24, 2016 http://www.theage.com.au/world/us-e...ople-and-not-lose-voters-20160123-gmcqkr.html Trump: I could "shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters" US Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump jokes that he wouldn't lose support for his campaign even if he shot people "in the middle of Fifth Avenue." Iowa: US Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump has told a press conference he is so confident of his chances that he could stand in New York's Fifth Avenue "and shoot people and I wouldn't lose voters". Trump and Texas Senator Ted Cruz, Trump's chief obstacle to a victory in Iowa's February 1 caucuses, held competing rallies across the state while in New Hampshire, other candidates battled for votes in that state's February 9 first-in-the-nation primary. I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot people and I wouldn't lose voters. Donald Trump Trump, the New York billionaire and former reality TV star who has been virtually impervious to attacks from his opponents, pushed the limits of his political rhetoric again in Sioux Centre, Iowa.

Cruz picked up the endorsement of conservative firebrand Glenn Beck, a counterweight of sorts to Trump's endorsement by 2008 vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin. Beck quickly went on the attack during a 45-minute speech at the Cruz event in Ankeny. "If Donald Trump wins (Iowa), it's going to be a snowball to hell," Beck said. Trump has connected with disaffected white voters throughout the United States. Trump has connected with disaffected white voters throughout the United States.

The potential for more chaos in what has been a turbulent race on both the Republican and Democratic sides emerged on Saturday with the news that former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg might launch an independent run for president. A source said part of Bloomberg's concern was the problems that Clinton is having in defeating Sanders. Trump has been a difficult target for criticism from his rivals because not all of his supporters are conservatives and many are most interested in his projection of strength, not where he stands on a particular issue. The latest Reuters-Ipsos tracking poll had Trump pulling in 40.6 per cent support of Republican voters nationally. A CNN/ORC poll has Trump up in Iowa with 37 per cent to 26 per cent for Cruz, who has led in some other Iowa polls. At a First In The Nation forum for candidates in Nashua, New Hampshire, former Florida Governor Jeb Bush was notably withering in his criticism of Trump, calling him a fake conservative with a liberal past and a tendency to insult people. He reminded voters of Trump's dismissal of Senator John McCain as not a hero because he got captured during the Vietnam War. McCain spent 5½ years as a prisoner of war. He was a two-time winner of the New Hampshire primary and the 2012 Republican presidential nominee. "It is not strong to insult women. It is not a sign of strength when you insult Hispanics. It is not a sign of strength when you say that a POW was a loser because they got caught. John McCain is a hero. It is not a sign of strength disparaging the disabled in this country. It is not. It is a sign of deep insecurity and weakness," Bush said. Reuters UQ
You know, the repturds are all about freedom from government overreach and this piece of shit megalomaniac is threatening us with fascism.
Dude, first you were 'Hot for Hillary' then you were 'Burning for Bernie'. Based on that, your opinion is no longer valid.
Actually, I have posted anti-Trump stuff from the beginning. Go get a clue. Being a Sanders supporter, does that mean you masturbate about gang rape? Its quite normal according to Bernie.
Ricter at least appears to have a brain, I cannot say the same for you. Have you ever posted an original thought or simply copied and pasted other people's work?

(This was in the context of Trump bragging about his supporters' devotion. He said Cruz's support is more "soft" than his is.) — Patrick Svitek (@PatrickSvitek) January 23, 2016 The Trump campaign could not immediately be reached for comment. The specter of violence at a Trump rally is hardly new. At a November rally in Alabama, at least six white attendees punched and kicked a black protester, CNN reported.

Another protestor dragged out. Man in suit screaming: "He's a Muslim guy! He's a Muslim guy!" — Benjy Sarlin (@BenjySarlin) December 15, 2015 Last August, two white men who allegedly beat a homeless Hispanic man cited Donald Trump's rhetoric as their motive. “Donald Trump was right, all these illegals need to be deported,” Scott Leader, one of the men, allegedly told the police. When asked about the alleged beating, Trump said that his followers are "very passionate." UQ
