Home run. At least one person gets it.

I agree, no imperial dictators! Vote Trump and save the world from Hillary.

“Doesn’t matter, when you’re losing this badly you resort to anything and everything....including lying.”

I can hardly believe how much of that I’ve seen here in the last few months. It’s why I keep saying that I’ll be glad when Trump takes the nomination. This destructive infighting has got to stop.

Trump will still need Congress to impeach, convict and remove Supreme Court justices, other federal judges and opposition members of Congress.

>> As I have argued (Sophocles did it a lot better), trying to stop the cycle of political payback with another round of it

I gather the author is unaware of Trump’s self-funding.

Mexico WILL be paying for it even if they don't want to. Tax their goods, produce, etc. coming into the U.S. and THE REMITTANCE PAYMENTS LEAVING THE U.S. WHICH IS MEXICO'S NUMBER 1 SOURCE OF REVENUE TO THE TUNE OF OVER $20 BILLION/YEAR.

Or maybe just the money saved by cutting off entitlements to illegals will be enough to buy the wall.

Anti-Trump are rapid and the reason I pretty much stay away from here. It’s reached a low that is insulting to me.
Not sure how it get so far, but it has. Cruz has shown himself to be a very little man.

I admit I just love seeing all the gnashing of teeth from so many quarters - we’ve been living in some weird matrix for years and finally, light is shining through to expose them all.

Looks like the “Trump Effect” has smoked out another phony “conservative” media outlet that’s really just another mouthpiece for the GOPe side of the modern aristocracy’s Uniparty.

For the record, the word is ‘epithets’ not ‘epitaphs’. I guess Angelo was agitated when he wrote the piece.

1)
“I think the white voters who seem to believe that Trump represents their turn to get revenge will be equally disappointed,...”
I for one am not after revenge; I am after our borders being honored and secured. Trump is the only one I think might - I emphasize, might - do something about that. Without that, the nation, as a nation, is lost - period.
I am equally convinced the former Canadian, with the CFR wife, would never secure our borders. He would be much sound and fury, signifying nothing.
2)
“The real fault of the GOP is that they honestly didn’t know how to respond to Obama’s unconstitutional acts because he acted so fast and so aggressively...”
I am convinced that the RNC (I refuse to call them the GOP - there is nothing grand about them) knew exactly what Obama would do, and secretly approved. They thus huffed and puffed, and did nothing. They are mostly globalists, just like the DNC.
We need a nationalist.

We have gone absolutely insane - even after 8 years of Obama, we still have folks claiming that our best hope to attain the WH is every bit as bad as the worst that they have - there’s some serious brain damage out there or these are folks who call themselves Conservative Patriots but who actually work for the other side - either way, we are screwed if folks keep listening to this kind of crap.

By their own admission, Trump already has all the resources he needs for his empire/crony capitalism! Why would he want to be the president to keep these resources? Wouldn’t it be easier to let hillary have her way?
Are they saying he runs to ensure he wins the primary so he can lose to hillary?
Isn’t that the most stupid move - a successful business person spending a fortune, exhausting himself, getting attacked on all sides to get what he is already enjoying?
AND, does Trump have a crystal ball that tells him he will win the primary but lose to hillary?

Their theories on what a Trump presidency would be like defy logic and common sense.

Well, that makes me feel better. After listening to the media elite, I thought that Trump was the Anti-Christ.

An exercise in absurdity!

Obama's whole adult life, bespeaks his hatred of traditional American values--and hatred of rooted American families. Do we need to review his mentors; the Church with which he was affiliated for 20 years; his day dreams over a Marxist Luo father, from Kenya?

Donald Trump clearly loves America; clearly identifies with Americans, American culture & an American future.

While he is still a work in progress (the progress every one on the Conservative side went through at one point), he is probably already the most Conservative in the race, personality-wise. (See Trump: Metaphor For American Conservatism.)

They jumped on Rubio for endlessly repeating the same thing, when he was challenged for having memorized lines.

Of course, Obama is deliberately trying to fundamentally change America from what we value. He hates us; but Rubio is not up to dealing with him. Trump is far more up to the job.
