Trump 2016

"""Monmouth poll had another bit of data that was interesting. It surveyed (a small number of) people who'd already cast ballots, and among them, Rubio was winning 2 to 1."""

So this is why Trump is claiming the vote is rigged in FL -- he's losing in early voting.

Almost a million early ballots and he's losing 2-1, so naturally it must be because Rubio is rigging the election there.

Trump - Soros connection:
Soros gave $160 million loan to Trump for the Trump skyscraper in Chicago. They both were later sued for ""having concocted a scheme to win the 2003 auction for the General Motors Building in downtown Manhattan. Such scheming is known as "bid-rigging."""

""'On Jan. 6, 2009, U.S. District Judge Barbara Jones dismissed Leslie Dick's request for entry of a default judgment, ruling that Trump and the other defendants had already begun to actively litigate the case.

Other than that, coverage of the suit has since been minimal and it remains unknown as to whether or not it's been resolved.'""

Funny, I didn't think the Donald needed anyone's money.

I will be voting for Rand Paul in the Fla primary provided his name still appears on the ballot. I will vote for Trump if he is the nominee.

Let me ask you, TGBTG...looking at Trump's platform as listed on his website, what is it about that platform that would cause you not to vote for him?

Why would you waste a vote on a candidate who has dropped out? Your vote is your vote, I just don't understand why people would vote for a candidate who has dropped out of the race.

"""The contribution by George Soros is a $160 million investment, in the form of a mezzanine loan, a kind of second mortgage that typically charges a much higher interest rate than a first-mortgage construction loan.

Unlike the mezzanine loan, which has closed, terms of the $650 million construction loan have not yet been finalized, sources said.

Frankfurt, Germany-based Deutsche Bank, an active commercial real estate lender in the U.S., is expected to split up the loan with other banks.

The document does not identify the other participants, but a key member is Grove Capital LLP, according to sources familiar with the transaction.

The firm manages most of the multibillion-dollar real estate portfolio of the $13 billion Soros Fund Management, from which Grove Capital was spun off last month."""

My vote does not matter anyway since Trump is going to destroy Rubio in Florida.

Okay. Although of the nearly 700,000 early votes cast, Rubio is beating Trump 2-1. But that likely won't hold up when all the votes are counted and results come in.

Kasich leading Trump 40-35% in Ohio, which may explain this recent Trump tweet:

@realDonaldTrump: Because Gov. Kasich cannot run in the state of Pennsylvania-he cannot win the nomination- & should not be allowed to compete in Ohio on Tue.

Hahaha. If you can't beat'em, try to disqualify him.

Trump should be comforted by this being just one poll and within the margin of error. I doubt Kasich will win Ohio. It's just funny that Trump resorts to this when one poll shows him behind another candidate.

They'll broker the convention, put Romney up, Trump goes independent, and Hillary gets sworn in.
