Donald Trump – The First 100 Days…
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | 9/26/15 | Sundance

Posted on 09/26/2015 6:27:04 AM PDT by Amntn

Donald Trump announced his intentions to run for President on June 16th, 2015; one hundred days ago.

Wow, what a hundred days it has been.

In the past 100 days we have found out that virtually every espoused position of the “conservative media” was a total ruse. The Salem Media group primarily among them.

Red State (Eric Erickson) now finds himself proclaiming that Jeb Bush is the most conservative governor he’s ever known. Web sites like Twitchy, Hot Air, Human Events, Michelle Malkin and National Review suddenly singing the praises of a Jeb Bush they formerly said was just another GOP establishment sell out.

Jeb goes from RINO villain to GOP hero faster than you can say Donald Trump.

“Conservative” punditry like George Will, Charles Krauthammer, Stephen Hayes, Charles Lane, Rich Lowry, Jonah Goldberg and many more opining on all media a previously hidden “open borders” position. All of a sudden they are telling us walls will never work, illegal aliens are the bedrock of the U.S. social fabric and it’s profoundly unfair to even contemplate their deportation. Oh, the humanity.

That’s a serious dose of sunlight upon a previously hidden agenda.

Wow, what a ride.

McConnell and BoehnerOn the legislative side John Boehner and Mitch McConnell have worked earnestly to insure Obamacare is never removed, the Trans-Pacific Trade Deal (Fast Track) is structured to insure passage -and destruction of the middle class- with 51 yea votes; and providing Iran with nuclear weapons is similarly fast-tracked using the same legislative threshold.

Who would have thought?

Oh yeah, but don’t expect them to use “reconciliation” (51 votes) for the Federal budget; nope, NO BUDGET – preferring instead to retain the formerly Democrat process of Continuing Resolutions (CR) to fund the government.

The 2016 fiscal year begins in five days and with full control of the House and Senate the Republicans instead choose to skip a budget and use a CR. That’s a gobsmacking reversal of positions they formerly railed against as they requested electoral support.

The GOP claimed the 2014 Mid-Terms hung on the tenuous position: ‘if only they were given control of both chambers of Congress they would stop this deficit usurpation’. So we gave it, and what? Oh yeah, they did the exact opposite.

Senators, and Presidential Candidates, Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz both voting to allow the destruction of the Middle Class (Trade Deal) and offering up 40% of the global production to Wall Street and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce hell bent on outsourcing. Voting on other stuff in the Senate, nah…. no biggie.

Wow, who knew?

In the past 100 days the curtain of Fox News has been pulled back to showcase the underlying progressive agenda, and even CNN appears more honest by comparison.

The architects of the Mississippi race-baiting ads (and paying Dems for votes in the primary), scuttled off to join Team Scott Walker and Team Rick Perry in their respective presidential bids – only to go down in flames after their candidates came out in favor of the above GOPe agenda writ large. DUH !

And now we watch eight of the remaining candidates working collectively to deliver Jeb Bush:

Carly Fiorina, Marco Rubio, Mike Huckabee, Chris Christie, Jim Gilmore, George Pataki, John Kasich and Lindsey Graham…

…all supporting Common Core, Comprehensive Immigration Reform including a pathway to citizenship, expansion of Medicare, the Trans-Pacific Trade Deal and retention of various forms of ObamaCare. What a jaw-dropping shift in publicly proclaimed views from before June 16th.

Unreal.

Florida, Ohio, Colorado, North Carolina, Virginia, Washington State, and God-only-knows who else, all desperately scrambling to adjust their primary calendars and GOP state party rules to benefit a similar progressive outcome – the coronation of Jeb Bush.

AND… in each and every instance we are seeing the real ideology, intents and motives, that laid hidden just below the surface.

Well, that is, hidden prior to the entry of candidate Donald Trump who has single-handedly pulled back the covers and laid bare their deception. Topped off yesterday with the U.S. Speaker of the House John Boehner bailing out just before the explosion of an awakened electorate upon them.

Stunning, just STUNNING.

My, oh my. If Donald Trump can accomplish all of this in just 100 days of a candidacy – just imagine what this glorious bastard will reveal in 100 days of a presidency?

It is an accomplishment that Trump faced down the PC Police and spoke in factual, graphic terms about the outsize number of rapes, murders and other crimes committed by the foreign invading horde. There is STILL no other candidate that has done that. When you recall the withering backlash Trump faced over merely shining the light of truth on this crisis, you can understand why no other candidates have followed suit.

Public hanging for Democrats. Firing squads for all of the Vichy Republicans. This is my dream.

With the country as volatile as it is we have no idea what will happen between now and the election. Chances are good that whatever happens won’t be good and may make Trump look even better to the electorate.

Remember when Trump came out so strongly against illegal immigration and then that sorry b@st@rd killed Kate?

It was a terrible thing to happen but it opened peoples eyes to the problem which ended up helping Trump make his point.

I started with and will vote for Cruz. But I find a tacit relationship between them that suggests some sort of unspoken synergy or mutual existence/acceptance born of unopposing goals between them. Could this result in a possible collaboration and team against the Democrat ghoul, whoever that will be? I don't know.

What I do know, however, there isn't any other candidate for whom I would vote. Not even close.

I just love this picture….

In the photo above, Trump is all by himself – leaving a powerful enemy in flames. How symbolic that he’s alone – as the entire GOP, Democrat Party, and media turn on him. But now I’m seeing a different picture, where he’s not alone. There is an army in the smoke behind him.

Start from the top. The disabled vet, holding his fake VA waiting number, which he now realizes is a waiting number to get on the real waiting list. Behind him – tens of thousands more just like him – and thousands still more who died waiting – ghosts whose voices are now being heard, through us.

A naval officer – relieved of duty because he refused to stand down when ordered. And 4 ghosts behind him, along with hundreds of pilots and seamen who were denied the chance to do their jobs. And behind them – thousands of patriotic men and women who have left a military which no longer is allowed to do its job. Behind them – millions who are waiting for a REAL president, before they’ll even think about joining.

To their side – thousands of scientists, engineers and programmers – laid off of their jobs – but only after they were forced to train their replacements – overseas and as H1B imports.

Next to them – millions of immigrants – most of them Hispanic – who played by the rules to come to America, only to watch their hard-won citizenship devalued to nothing, by traitors who equate their proud LEGAL status with people who not only refuse to play by the rules, but who have the chutzpah to cry racism while begging for racial favoritism.

Millions who lost their pensions. Their retirements. Their health care. Their full-time jobs. True – they did get that job selling fast food – until they lost even that to illegal aliens.

In the mist – millions of dead Jews – the ghosts of the Holocaust – who watch the very lives of their own children and grandchildren bargained away, so that greedy Uniparty members and their crony-cap backers can cash in on the big payday, which they give to men who swear to wipe Jews from the face of the earth.

Should I go on? Why not? How about millions of black Americans, who can’t find jobs, while immigrants both legal and illegal pour into their neighborhoods, taking whatever jobs there are?

But it gets better! How about the crying families of THOUSANDS of Americans murdered, raped, beaten, robbed, and run down by illegal aliens who should have never even been here in the first place?

And next to them, cops shot in cold blood, for lies that the men and women of Congress don’t even dare to speak of, and which the Presidents sycophants in the media won’t even report.

And we might as well let all the dead Christians and Yazidis in the Middle East join the army, too, because if both the Democrats and Republicans would have done their job and impeached Obama, they would still be alive.

And to finish it off, floating overhead, an air force of angels from horizon to horizon. What are they – this massive legion? Why, they are boys and girls who were never born – “Dead Emily’s List”, you might say – led by a young girl who would have been named Emily. Every one slaughtered for their body parts by Planned Parenthood.

Go ahead. Laugh at Trump. Make hideous cartoons about killing him. But bear this in mind. He is just the guy on point. There are millions more behind him, who are ready to pick up his gun if he should fall. And Trump is not nearly as pissed as the rest. Not even close.

This is the best assessment of the GOPe I have read to date.

‘That said, they are wearing him a bit and there has been a dip in his polling.’

Not sure how much he’s dipped. As someone pointed out, RCP averages only selected polls. A newly updated poll tracker that averages all of them has Trump at 34.8%:

I must say the only one I’m surprised with is Michelle Malkin???
Is she one of those good ones who turned bad?

This article and the one linked above say it all crystal clear for anyone that has any doubts about supporting Trump. He is the wrecking ball before building can proceed. And he knows all about building.

Malkin is a very intelligent person, but she takes an outsized level of pride in being both smart and sophisticated. As an exercise in proving both, she has brutally mocked and ridiculed so-called birthers. (She is simply too suave to fall for all that crazy conspiracy stuff.) No doubt part of her animous toward Trump is that he showed himself to be beneath her intellectual plateau, when he questioned Obama’s bona fides.

I gather Trump also nastily insulted Malkin, which couldn’t have helped matters. Trump was never going to have her on his side, but there was no reason to make matters worse, imho.

Not even in the same planetary orbit.

There were nine declared candidates who were former or serving Governors. (Five other Governors including Romney, Palin and Pence didn’t make it to the starting line.) Since then, Perry and Walker have dropped out. That is some progress but there are still seven Governors left to be eliminated.

I don’t remember the details but Trump said something to her about a year ago that was pretty bad. I don’t think she is GOPe. I think it is personal between them.

Trump could do his ‘own’ debate....he isn’t ‘owned’ by anyone, but Cruz and Carson are ‘owned’ and their ‘owners’ wouldn’t have any of this...
