When people say Trump has no ground game, does that mean he actually has no field organizers/ field directors working in NH? I don't see how he could win the primary operating like that.

He has a basic ground game, but nothing compared to Ted Cruz or Jeb Bush. He really should start pumping money into one for Super Tuesday... But Trump gonna Trump.

Rubio malfunctioning was great, but his biggest :wtf: moment for me was when he claimed Hillary Clinton thought all abortions should be legal, even on the due date of the child. I looked it up and apparently this isn't even the first time he's said that. Come on, I know Democrats are supposed to be evil and all, but :psyduck:

quote:

When the busload of Donald Trump campaign volunteers from upstate New York arrived in New Hampshire last week, its organizers expected to team up with scores of people from around the country.
Turns out theirs was the only bus to arrive.
Instead, they were connected with a hodgepodge of loosely organized Trump supporters who came by cars and SUVs to make phone calls and knock on doors using what they said was a list of New Hampshire’s registered Republicans, not the targeted and tested roster of supporters employed by other campaigns.

...

The 55 New Yorkers who traveled here weren’t recruited by the Trump campaign. Republican Assemblymen William Nojay and David DiPietro, who tried drafting Mr. Trump to run for New York governor in 2013, put together the group on their own. To their surprise, theirs was the only bus of out-of-state Trump volunteers when it arrived here Thursday afternoon.
“For some of the people who have been around a while and worked a few other campaigns, they think that Mr. Trump has got to put more resources into his ground game,” said Mr. Nojay, who represents the Rochester suburbs. “They’re enthused to be there, but folks are saying we’ve got to redouble our efforts in future states.”
The New Yorkers planned to head home Saturday night, three days before Tuesday’s primary. “Sunday is the Super Bowl and it’s hard to do elections door-to-door after 2 p.m. when people are getting ready for the game,” said Mr. DiPietro, who represents the Buffalo suburbs.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

Trump 33
Rubio 16
Cruz 14
Kasich 11
Jeb! 7
Fiorina 6
Christie 4

Also shows Trump ~30 and there being a pileup around ~15.

He's probably not going to get 33% but it'll be hard for him to lose NH at this rate.

I’m sorry, but did Rubio already lose? Oh, that’s right. The primary isn’t even over yet. In fact, it’s only New Hampshire. Does not having the lead in heroin central count as a loss? Is that what you’re saying? Because if you’re saying that I can assure you that you’re wrong. Why would you say this when the primary is still on? Rubio is still campaigning right now and they have been maintaining a strong position in the polls for how many months now? He’s going against a bunch of dirty politicians and holding his ground while at such a young age. Maybe you should shut the gently caress up before you make retarded assumptions like this. You know why? Because you’re going to be embarrassed when Rubio wins and someone quotes you. Oh look at that, Trump just dropped a point. Are you a loving drunk? Are you retarded? Are you autistic? You are a loving idiot and you should never make a post like this and I’m loving serious. I almost have a feeling you’re the only guy making all these anti-Rubio posts because you’re a human being hater who doesn’t like Rubio because he’s hard working to the point of sweating heavily. gently caress you, be good at something in YOUR life and then maybe try to troll people on the internet, like I give a gently caress. It’s so easy to spot your posts now, you’re a retard. Always doing stupid poo poo like this. Why don’t you try to be a good poster??? Just for one? For once in your loving life try not to make a topic like this. That’s just you, you’re always right at getting it wrong. gently caress you. You are nothing

And furthermore, let's dispel with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn't know what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing. Barack Obama is undertaking a systematic effort to change this country, to make America more like the rest of the world.

After I win the next few primaries and caucuses, more people than ever are going to start voting for me. Soon I'll be winning every single vote in each state. And people will be asking, Mr. Trump, Mr. Trump can you please stop taking all the votes, we're sick of all the votes, and I'll say no, we're gonna keep taking all the votes.

Rick Snyder, governor of Michigan ran as a moderate in 2010. Once in office he set up a literal dictatorship in the cities and school districts with minority populations and set up proxy emergency managers, stripping local elected officials of any authority and giving it to the EMs. These EMs only answer to the Governor. Michigan has a Republican legislature, Republican executive and Republican dominated court system with a Republican attorney general. Have you heard of a city named Flint? They've been in the news quite a bit lately because of what the governor-appointed EM did with the water supply in that city.

A Republican in the White House is a really bad idea right now. Ask anyone from New Jersey or Ohio what those two have done to their states. Christie really likes the Michigan EM idea, he wants to do that to his state.

Jeb! did the same thing to Florida as well, he made it so everything from the state college system to environmental regulation storyboards were directly controlled by the governor.
