(OFFICIAL THREAD FOR CURRENT TRUMP VOLUNTEERS) Maybe he just doesn't need them? I dunno... Goodbye, halcyon days... There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory mentioned, which states that this has already happened. |

(OFFICIAL THREAD FOR CURRENT TRUMP VOLUNTEERS) They need these people at every precinct to make sure they stay and caucus for Trump. If not, Bush and his millions will have a volunteer/staffer at every single 1,682 of them. They've got the ground game. I like to think of it as war... OK, Trump has air supremrecy, yet no boots on the ground... that can only go SO FAR... "CAUCUS" goes literally need "leaders" at every precint to "shepherd them" into staying and becoming delegates... New Hampshire is a winner take all vote not a caucus, yet once again in NH, a WINNER TAKE ALL - He has ONE OFFICE and FOUR full time staffers. |

(OFFICIAL THREAD FOR CURRENT TRUMP VOLUNTEERS) I agree. Real life voters are what matters, not polls and the most TV appearances. Likes on FB and daily tweets mean nothing in the end. Never underestimate the power of real human interaction. Supporters need to be in place where the action is needed. Never forsake a Kraut for the sake of forsaking a Kraut |

Quoting: Kraut Supporters need to be in place where the action is needed. and Trump is scaring me by not having lots of paid staffers or Volunteers or places for Volunteers to even GO TO to start VOLUNTEERING! It doesn't make sense yet - I really hope he's "committed" yet he needs a ground game now, and fast. |

He's eminently reachable. |

I'm sure he'll write a book when he's done, and that'll be that. Trump supporters are looking for a savior in all the wrong places.

Ron Paul won :) But that was a smoke and mirrors, they wanted Romney to win, shut down RP, so they "remained unofficial results" for WEEKS afterwards with Santorum saying he won, he won - in the end, Ron Paul actually won Iowa... He was the "Chuck Truck" where he drives to the 99 counties in Iowa in 2012.... now he has a jet. Hmmm... |

(OFFICIAL THREAD FOR CURRENT TRUMP VOLUNTEERS) Iowa 2012 GOP Caucus: Rick Santorum 29,839 24.6% - ZERO DELEGATES. — Mitt Romney 29,805 24.5% - FIVE DELEGATES. — Ron Paul 26,036 21.4% - 22 DELEGATES. So yes "he won" but got NO DELEGATES... Ron Paul had that massive ground game in Iowa and Caucus states... So yes, he can get 33% of the vote - and come out with zero delegates - and we're not even talking about the "Superdelegates" yet that are in no way shape or form supporting Trump. |

Thank you, I needed that word. The DIRTY MECHANICS of Caucus States and the lack of troops in WINNER TAKE ALL - as I pointed out Romney "won" Iowa yet got NO DELEGATES - New Hampshire is winner take all - so if Trump gets 2nd - he gets zip. If Trump wins Iowa, yet doesn't have skilled people to lead them through the dirty mechanics of the Caucus States... then he could be like Romney - win, hell he might win it HUGE - and Bush could come in third, yet with millions to spend and thousands of interns at every precint.. guide them into becoming a delegate. So Trump could win Iowa, HUGE - Come out with no delegates, come in 2nd in NH - and on the way to South Carolina still be surging in the polls - yet not a single "vote" in his name to be casted at the Convention. |
