TODAY WAS A TURNING POINT
Donald Trump's campaign, until today, has been much more than a mere "movement". It has been a peaceful revolution.
Today that changed. Today was a turning point.
If Trump had NOT "postponed" the event it would have become a major riot. It would have been easy for the MSM, GOPe, etc., to blame that riot on Trump. It would have been a bombshell of negative publicity designed to finally take down the evil villain, Donald Trump.
By postponing, Mr. Trump defused the bombshell and may even have gained a few sympathy/anger points in Tuesday's elections. Good call.
But longer term we are CERTAIN to see a LOT more of this. The seeds have been sown, and in the enemy's eyes they won their first victory even though they did not get the riot they hoped for. They will riot at every Trump rally they can bring sufficient numbers of "protesters" to. The more publicity each "riot" gets, the more "protesters" at the next.
They will have the MSM, the GOPe, and the Dem/gimmedat population on their side every time. It is well established that paid disruptors have been hired in the past, and we will see a lot more of that as well.
The narrative is already in place: Trump is so "hateful" that he has inspired these poor people to riot in despair. He will tear this country apart if he gets the nomination. He MUST be stopped for the good of the country and the entire world. If he wins the nomination the conflict will escalate much further. (The powers that be will make sure of it.)
All of this means we will be facing increasing civil unrest for the rest of the year. None of us can know in advance how bad it will get, but rest assured there are extremely powerful people who would rather see the whole house burn down than relinquish power.
We are living through what has thus far been a peaceful revolution. Today was planned to be the day the revolution turned violent. More days like today are certain to come. Someday the violence will come too. They can and will make sure of it.
Our Constitution was built to accommodate a peaceful revolution. We are going to see that put to the test in 2016. But peacefully or otherwise, It is a test we must not fail.
Patrick Henry: Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!
It’s a possibility except he will then have to deal with Trump’s sleeping giant both Conservatives and Democrats and the military and LEOs???
Will be hard to pull off!!!
It would have been foolish bravado to endanger attendees in the face of a threat.
ROFL!!! Just spewed onto my monitor!
“I wonder if there is some way we can band together and bring a suit against moveon.org? They have denied our free speech by shutting down our candidate who speaks for us. I have been emotionally harmed tonight and I’m an old lady.”
Good question.
Gmta. I’ve been thinking the same thing for a while now.
Also the establishment, Eric Ericson and Co. urged people to bring guns to rallies. They must be stopped!!!
How low will GOP lover themselves in process for keeping their power???
Actually, closed arena (I-X Center, Cleveland), reporter states police claim will be secure.
The Wall can’t happen soon enough.
What is seeing here is Chicago-Godfather-Thugs ala Corleone (also done to John Roberts on January 14th, 2009) a display how they normally cut off horse heads and place them in your beads. The action is similar to ISIS head cuttings, not over in the M.E. but right here in your own U.S. town with FULL blessing from Rove/Ericson/Mitten/Bushes and the knee-pad media whether MSM or so called conservative media like FAUX and radio talking heads of FOG Horns !!!
I can’t feel any sympathy for you. You caused by yourself not researching the illegal Canadian born Anchor Baby, sorry!!!
I agree we that we have just begun to see how ugly it will be. The Democratic Convention in 1968 will look like a tea party compared to the long hot summer ahead. The depth of socialism/communism in the Universities much deeper now than then.
Principled Conservative my a$$. He threw a whole life out the window and took sides with lefty loons. Always accused Trump but then Ted did it in front of everyone. Now we know for sure about lyin’ Ted.
I used to merely dislike Cruz but after that it’s gone to intense disgust.
Attendees were already there weren’t they?
Rubio did a much better job of separating the disruptors violence from Trump’s rhetoric, compared with Cruz. Cruz chronically overreaches with the cause/effect linkage, just as he does by linking Trump’s giving to DEM candidates in the past with DEM objectives such as eliminating the RKBA, undermining freedom of religion, etc.
The cancellation was better than the rally.
Everyone there for Trump is now unshakable.
Cruz has lost much of his support here on FR. NO one agrees with his blame game. Some think it was ok to do but no one would have recommended it on FR.
Out in the world he looked like the adult.
OK, maybe a few little worry warts think it is not good to have conflict. But they are voting for Kasich anyway.
I see the whole thing as a win.
I am disappointed that he had to cancel Cincinnati. That was because of the Heart Mini-Marathon at the same time, same place.
The organized group of people, many of them thugs, who shut down our First Amendment rights in Chicago, have totally energized America! @realDonaldTrump 6:44 AM - 12 Mar 2016
“Cruz has lost much of his support here on FR.”
Stunning turn of events.
History unfolding before us.
The MSM is in full court press against Trump. Every story more hysterical than the last. Accusations of xenophobia with no reference to Islamic Jihad, claims of crushing protest, etc.
This is a real test of the power of the media.
