Republican front-runner Donald Trump has a message for his naysayers: “I’m never getting out”.

“It doesn’t bother me at all”.
Got a question about how he’s shaken up the GIOP race? And he noted that his crowds are even larger than those of Senator Bernie Sanders, the Vermont independent who is drawing thousands to rallies in seeking the Democratic nomination. Trump has, in the past, pantomimed a firing squad, Fidell said.Bergdahl has been accused of leaving his post in southeastern Afghanistan in June 2009. His recent comments have lent credence to the views of political observers who had long believed the perennially self-promoting real estate mogul would ultimately not allow himself to face the risk of losing.
I will say this for the Donald: the man has sand, a certain animal magnetism that makes you think, “Hey, he may not be politically correct or if he’s even politically competent but damnit, he certainly is inspiring”. He (sort of) backtracked later, but his message was unmistakably that he will take his ball and go home if too many voters polled like other kids more than him. But Trump’s style does suggest that he learned at least as much about campaigning in the boardroom of “The Apprentice” as in any actual boardroom.
From his “Art of the Deal” tabloid-era heyday to today, Trump has been a rich guy who lives like a lottery victor. “There have been other candidates in this race who have gone out of their way to try to smack Donald with a two-by-four, and I haven’t been one of them”. Trump said back in June that Mexican immigrants were “bringing crime” and “being rapists.”
“I swear to you – I think she is totally lovely and great – I never met her before, I swear”, Trump said.
The crowd responded to his confidence with excited cheering and chants of “Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump”. With so many states bunched close together, he said, it may be a campaign won largely on television and sweeping visits – just the race for a bombastic billionaire.
The poll also offered a few insight into the challenges that led House Speaker John Boehner to announce his resignation. I give more of a political answer.
Since then, Mr. Trump and his aides have spoken repeatedly about his next act.
For his part, Huckabee, without directly addressing Trump, has boasted of his grassroots organization in South Carolina and neighboring states as more important than Trump’s standing months from voting.

Another problem with Trump’s Twitter dominance is that, no matter how dominant he is on the platform, the platform is only so big.
