Trump Leading by 27% in Union Area of Michigan

Source
The Teamsters Union is inviting Presidential candidate Donald Trump to meet them at their HQ in Michigan...as well as select other Republican candidates.

This is a huge deal in swing-voter's like Reagan Democrats coming back into the old Republican fold.

So despite a gazillion ATS threads trying to mock Trump as a sucker...the jokes on you!

Get used to saying President Trump...sir.

Ok it is but don't get ahead of yourself, until he gets the ticket nothing is for sure, the RNC does not want him and they will do what they can to make him go away, get the popcorn.

It takes the swing voters to win these days...just enough to win key States like Michigan.

My vote doesn't actually count In the potus election. But just as Obama. Bush.Clinton..Bush..Regan..Carter..Ford.....

Trump is hitting on points that some of us more "seasoned" folk have been concerned about for years. He also has a the ability to mezmerize the "greener" voters.

Like it or not, he is making headway. I, like many of my fellow ATS ers.... we're done w/politricks period.

I will reserve my opinion as it matters not. The facts speak for themselves. I will be ecstatic when Barry is gone and learning to drink his Lomi salmon and Poi smoothy every day before hitting the greens.......

Trump is trumping everyone.

Corporate oligarch "representative"… has everyone forgotten that business and politics aren't supposed to mix?

Since when does it matter what the American people want come election time? They're all gas bags that say what we want to hear to get votes, then when it comes time to run the nation it's the same old song and dance.

Picking an election winner now is like guessing which football team is going to the Super Bowl based on pre-season stats. imho

What does that matter! The GOP hates his guts and will not nominate him. They have already selected Jeb.


Have you forgotten 2000 when Gore won the popular vote but "W" was put in POTUS by judicial decree.

I guarantee you that Jeb will be the one. Not saying Trump is for sure, but, Jeb will not be the guy.

If Trump wins the nomination or somehow gets huge backing as an Independent they will simply "Ross Perot" him. Once that process unfolds he will eventually "willingly withdraw" from the race.

Also do people really believe, that if someone like Donald Trump wins the election, that he will be able to do what he wants, as apposed to, what the "Military Industrial Complex" wants him to do?

Anyone who becomes President of the United States has to "cow tow" to the "Military Industrial Complex" and even Donald Trump is not immune to a guaranteed "CIA visit" once in office.

Be assured they will pay him a visit, if he ever wins, and like Ross Perot, Jessie Ventura, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Obama, he too will "toe the line" and "play ball", once they tell him what the real rules are. For example, why in the world did Arnold Schwarzenegger need to do ANYTHING along party lines? His fame and popularity COMPLETELY transcended political parties, yet somehow he was still "answering" to politicians who "in theory" should have had no affect on his personal life, political career or fortune, all of which existed prior to being elected and was also COMPLETELY outside of the confines or influence of the "Military Industrial Complex".

Also consider this angle, there is a huge assets difference between Mitt Romney who has a $250 million net worth and Ross Perot with a $5 billion net worth (Donald Trump has a net worth of $4 Billion). Yet, someone like Romney was a shoe in for party nominations, but not Perot (as was siad earlier, this time around it will be Jeb Bush that gets the party nomination). Its NOT the money or the popular vote that matters, people like Mitt and Jeb are government insiders and both come from families that always have been, that was not the case at all with Perot and the same goes for Trump.

Ross Perot dropping out of the 1992 election was not happenstance either, nor simply about his daughters wedding:

Mr. Perot offered no evidence, only quoting friends and an unidentified "top Republican." "I can't prove any of it today," he said on tonight's CBS News program "60 Minutes." "But it was a risk I did not have to take," he added, "and a risk I would not take where my daughter is concerned." Mr. Perot accused the unidentified C.I.A. employee of being hired to tap into his computerized stock trading program to prevent him from having the money to revive his campaign.

I think Ross Perot would have done a much better job than ANY of the "good ol' boys" that we've gotten as Presidents since then. Again, Perot dropping out of the 1992 election was not happenstance, nor was it simply about his daughters wedding. Donald Trump will be no different, if he decides to run for President and if he somehow wins, best case scenario, it will be Arnold Schwarzenegger all over again.
