Donald Trump puts Tea Party on map for 2016

MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WMBF) - In front of a room packed full of Tea Party enthusiasts, Donald Trump took the microphone and gave the party a shot in the arm.

He may not have announced his run for presidency, but he did put the Tea Party on the map for the next election.

It's still very much up for grabs, said Curtis Ellis, a Tea Party Activist who worked at the convention. There's not been a single candidate that's swept the board.

The tea party has had its problems in the past but right now its gearing up for a candidate to make a run at the presidency. One of those possible candidates is Donald Trump.

He hopes people can get over the stigma that sometimes comes with the party.

I think they've been treated very, very unfairly, Trump said. What they really are, are great American people who love this country and they work, and that's what I'm all about.

Others had a harder time answering the question, but eventually came up with some solutions.

Ron Hooper traveled all the way from Florida and did have an answer. He believes people will take the party more seriously if they stop the fighting.

One thing that really hurts the Republican Party and Tea Party, both, is that they've been a little at odds, said Hooper, a guest from Florida. I'd like to see that kind of unify.

Whether or not the party is in the public's good graces, many attending this year's conference believes it's their message their will win the public over.

Trump stops by Tea Party Convention, discusses presidential hopefuls

MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WIS) -

Before the Tea Party Convention wrapped up in Myrtle Beach, Donald Trump spoke to party supporters regarding leadership and who's already running for the presidency.

I was right in 2012, Trump told a room full of supporters on Monday. I said I didn't see a strong candidate. We had Mitt Romney. We went with Mitt Romney. He failed. Now, he wants to run again? That was the worst signal! The last thing this country needs is another Bush. We've had it with the Bushes.

Trump considers himself a Republican, but he criticizes current Republican lawmakers and policies. In fact, he says he aligns more with Tea Party ideas.

The Tea Party's extremely relevant, Attorney General Alan Wilson said, and they're going to move the needle on the presidential primary.

However, the Tea Party is only a portion of the voters the GOP will need to clinch a victory in 2016.

The first thing we have to do is unify the party, ex-presidential candidate and former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum said.

A split party doesn't bode well for a national campaign. In 2000, Democrats were split between Al Gore and Ralph Nader. Both candidates lost to George W. Bush.

In 1992, the older Bush lost votes to Ross Perot, helping Democrat Bill Clinton come away with the presidential victory.

Santorum was a Tea Party favorite in 2012 who did well in South Carolina and will run again in 2016. Like Trump, the former senator says Republicans have dropped the ball.
