One summer's evening, a skinny, not-particularly athletic boy, perhaps eleven years old, scored the most glorious touchdown of his life. This was not a real game. My friend and I, along with his older brother Phil, were just tossing a ball around in the park. But it was a memorable triumph because I scored my touchdown by outmaneuvering Phil with a head fake, and then outrunning him for half the length of the field. It was almost too easy!

...today, addressing myself to any Trump supporters who are not already lost to the irrational anger he feeds on -- please don't scream about "righteous anger," as if I don't know the difference between justice and wrath -- I pose three simple questions:
(1) Don't you get the strange feeling that this has all been suspiciously easy?
snip
(2) Don't you find it odd that Trump, who habitually says the harshest, crudest, vilest things he can think of about anyone he perceives as an opponent or threat, never substantively criticizes the key players in the establishment at all?
snip
(3) If you were Rove, McConnell, and the rest of the GOP elite, and you wanted to end the growing grassroots threat to your power and influence once and for all, how would you go about it?

Now pray for equanimity to return before the primaries are over. Know history. We do not want a Sulla.
Trump is the elite’s chosen instrument to preside over the decline and likely destruction of America. He is chosen because he can assuage the anger of the masses— for awhile, long enough for the elites to finish looting the place.
Trump is the right wrench available to throw into the wheels of The Cheap Labor Express.
Simple as that.
FUDJ
I was going to take a shot at answering those questions, but I cannot beat your response. I defer to the master.
You people have lost your friking minds!
Sessions nor his aide would agree. Ted voted for TPA that’s all you need to know. Also, Trump is attacking the establishment dogs in Cruz & Rubio. Both liars and hucksters.
The main reason I am supporting Trump is he is the only one talking about how to Make America Great again.
He talks about Immigration. A big problem in Our Country, with who knows what is crossing our borders. We have witnessed murders, raptists, gang people, and Muslim infidels that walk into a place and kill 14 people in Ca. And there have been others, Fort Hood...with this on top of new diseases cropping up all over, the newest one is Zika...
Our Veterans and Wounded Warriors are not being treated with the respect and care that they should be. They are treated worse than illegal immigrants...they get nothing in the way of food stamps, housing, and if you want to call what the Vets Hospitals across America is providing for them, I would think a Veternarian would provide better care. We do not give them the respect for protecting our Freedoms that they gave up their lives for and body parts for.
Our Economy is terrible. Our manufacturing jobs are going to Foreign Countries, so we are jobless. Ford is building a plan in Mexico; Nabisco is taking their plant to Mexico; Samsonite Luggage is in Mexico; Air Conditioners are now moving to Mexico and nothing coming back in form of money, and here sits the American Worker, working at Burger King for 4 hours in the morning, Artic Circle for 4 hours in the afternoon and another job at night for a few hours if their lucky....no health care, to costly, barely making the rent payment, buying food and gas for the car.
Health Care is to expensive and climbing higher almost every month. It was a joke on the American People in the first place by your President to begin with...and we all remember Nancy’s famous words: “Oh you have to vote on it before you know what is in it”...well we know what’s in it and we don’t like it...but the Insurance Companies and the Government love it....
Our inter structure is falling apart, our roads, our bridges, our power grids are collapsing, and if you don’t believe me on that, ever went thru a brown out in the Summer?
So here are the main reasons why my support goes to Trump, he’s a business man, a very rich business man that has built his American Dream and is willing to help America get back to her American Dream so her people can have better lives since Bush, Clinton, Clinton, Bush and obuma....lets make this America Great Again!!!

Right?! This is getting so old and boring, including ‘vanities’ where I’m asked to justify my chosen candidate.
Hilarious.
GOPe, deal with it. It’s all over but for the singing.
You know what the worst thing is? When my dog leaves a giant pile of Daren Jonescu right on the walkway. If you’re not careful while you’re walking, you can end up with Daren Jonescu all over your shoes! I don’t know if you’ve ever tried to wash Daren Jonescu off your shoes, but let me tell you, it ain’t fun.
1 No
2 No
3 They sink themselves by being themselves
I’m no GOPe. Read my profile.
But Trump appears to be their instrument even as he lambastes them, but not by name (the subject of the questions).
Easy? You think Americans rising up and being pissed off and telling the eGOP to go screw itself ought to hard??
They now stoop to rhetorical questions. The lowest form of argument which is above a personal insult.
When the American Thinker explains why it is a good idea to have another 10 million wetbacks in this country illegally, or a million muslims of unknown pedigree, I’ll think about their stupid questions.
Good Gravy....
The elite are trying to destroy him because the secretly want him.
Do you guys ever stop and think before you hit “post”
The latest Trump bashing goes like this: the evidence clearly shows, Trump has consistently supported establishment candidates, has given thousands of dollars to entrenched politicians, and has surrounded himself with long-time Republican establishment operatives....
IMHO, this says it all. Wonder no more why pols are afraid to take him on.
All that time he was donating, Trump was not running for anything and used politicians to get business done. The calculating pols knew this, so Trump was on the politicians/ hit list as a sucker who/d write a check, no questions asked.....extortion at its finest.
BTW, these same pols are lying low ....maybe running scared now....
I would not be surprised if the candidates confided in Donald about their love life, spilled damaging opposition research WRT their opponents and damning stuff about well-known pols---in order to get bigger donations.
They/re wishing now they hadn't said the things they did.......b/c Donald knows plenty.
“We do not want a Sulla.”
That is such a disinterested comment?
You must like Rubio, high heels and all.
Oh sure thing that’s why they threatening independent run and a late Romney entry
You need your meds checked
