I’m not even sure you “win” the english language.

But if it’s that important to you, have a cookie, a lollipop, and a pat on the head.

Someone, you maybe? was reprimanded yesterday for calling Cruz supporters “cult followers”....Please tone down the nastiness. It doesn’t help your candidate.

Not me. I don’t know who it was. Perhaps talk to the Cruz supporters and tell them to stop acting like one.

How an Obscure Adviser to Pat Buchanan Predicted the Wild Trump Campaign in 1996

Imagine giving this advice to a Republican presidential candidate: What if you stopped calling yourself a conservative and instead just promised to make America great again?

What if you dropped all this leftover 19th-century piety about the free market and promised to fight the elites who were selling out American jobs?

What if you just stopped talking about reforming Medicare and Social Security and instead said that the elites were failing to deliver better healthcare at a reasonable price?

What if, instead of vainly talking about restoring the place of religion in society something that appeals only to a narrow slice of Middle America. You simply promised to restore the Middle American core, the economic and cultural losers of globalization to their rightful place in America?

What if you said you would re store them as the chief clients of the American state under your watch, being mindful of their interests when regulating the economy or negotiating trade deals?

... Cruz’s wife works there and he got money from them.
Who exactly is the ‘establishment’?
Listening to your hero and no one else again.
Ted and Heidi took out a personal secured loan. Got that?
DT never borrowed money?
Last I saw Goldman-Sach employees had donated $37,000.00 to Cruz. Got that?
I don’t buy Trump’s lies when he says them and I don’t buy them from his supporters either.

If you think about, the Dems have been using The Art of The Deal for a long time; presenting outrageous anti-American legislation to which the Republican losers counter with slightly less awful deals.

He borrowed money against his brokerage account.

To say he got money from Goldman Sachs, is like saying you got money from your bank when you got a loan.

Assuming you know what a brokerage account is...

“Cruz: Establishment Has Abandoned Rubio for Trump”

BTW, whatever mental illness that it is that Glenn Beck has, it looks like it’s virulently contagious because Cruz seems to have come down with a really bad case of it by hanging around Glenn too long if he really believes the establishment is supporting self-funded, owe-no-special-interests-anything Donald Trump. George Will just said he’s gonna go third party if Trump is the GOP nominee.

Oh, and it’s important not to forget that only a few weeks ago, Trump singularly upset the whole election apple cart!

Trump set the national agenda by opposing illegal immigration and bringing up other issues that the GOPe and their allies desperately wanted to avoid, and now they can’t.

The GOPe was not prepared for this, and as a consequence they don’t have a clue about what to do, hence their almost universal collapse into a pile of quivering jello, flip-flopping like a bag of Mexican jumping beans dumped on a hot griddle.

Trump has exposed those who pretend to be conservative but are really just fronts for big money establishment campaign donors who purchase their candidates with campaign “donations”.

Trump, by actually being a real man, has exposed the other candidates (Cruz excepting of course) and their allies for the weak little sniveling sellouts that they really are.

Trump’s vociferous truth-telling and fearless neutering of the kommie media have been the catalyst that triggered a massive revolt amongst conservative voters who are infuriated at the GOPe Congress doing absolutely ZERO to stop Obama’s agenda, and suddenly the GOP RINO leadership is in full blown panic mode and in full blown retreat, and the SMALL conservative House contingent smelt blood in the water, took heart, and charged in against a weakened, frightened and paralyzed GOPe leadership, and Boehner was taken out as a sacrificial lamb.

Trump is absolutely correct when he says that without Trump in the race, everything would be same-ol’, same-ol. The Joyful Tippy-Toes Turtle would be creeping closer to the finish line, Boehner would still be safely ensconced as Speaker, and there would be no mention of illegal immigration are any of the issues surrounding it by any politician in either party, other than possibly how critical it would be to pass immigration “reform”.

The media are loath to make the connection, but it’s obvious that the Boehner resignation was yet another falling domino, toppling due to the Trump Effect, because Trump’s unabashed truth-telling and fearless neutering of the kommie media triggered a revolt amongst the great unwashed GOP masses which emboldened a few conservative Congress critters to grow a few pairs.

And we wouldn’t even be having ANY of these conversations about illegal immigration and the myriad of other Obammunist issues destroying our country if it wasn’t for Trump. Instead, we’d simply be debating which RINO, GOPe squish would be least likely to be stomped by Hillary, and the GOPe would once again be exhorting the “base” about how critical it is for us to once again vote for the “lesser of two evils”, that is, vote for the GOPe side of the Uniparty coin.

And do note that ALL of the oligarchs and plutocrats are frightened to death of Donald Trump because the billionaires and millionaires can’t buy him like all of the other politicians they routinely purchase, because Trump doesn’t need nor want their money, and the kommie media is frightened to death of him because he isn’t afraid of them either, the bottom line being that Donald Trump can not be controlled by the rich and powerful or the corrupt media, so for anyone who is truly for campaign finance reform and wants to take money out of politics, voting for Trump is the only reasonable choice.

President Trump is really the last hope for this country: if he can’t undo any of the damage wrought by the Obammunists, the U.S.A. is done.

So least we forget, the above, and much more, are called “The Trump Effect”.
