Donald Trump: Obama might have lost
The Politico ^ | May 13, 2013 | Kevin Cirilli

Posted on 05/13/2013 2:16:37 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Donald Trump said Monday that if the details surrounding the IRS targeting tea party groups and last week’s Benghazi hearing had come out last fall, President Barack Obama might not have won reelection.

“This is a big, big story that is probably going to get a lot bigger,” Trump said of the IRS scandal on Fox News. “This is a terrible thing. It’s just not supposed to happen. They have laws against it. If this were somebody else, this would be the biggest story.”

Trump continued: “I’ve been watching it for the last four days getting bigger and bigger and even some of our liberal friends are sort of saying this is really bad. Between this and Benghazi, Benghazi — had this come out like this before the election, you could have had a different result.”(continued)

Of course a "president Romney" would've brought its own set of problems, but would ammunition still be scarce?

yeah, well, Romney turned tail and ran upon his first encounter with flak after mentioning Benghazi. So I would not be so sure.

There were several of us here that said we would rather have Obama than Romney.

Romney would have given us the same policies but under the R moniker.

Obama’s Presidency is burning to the ground by all the misdeeds. I have no doubt there are more scandals to be revealed.

Average American can understand the scandal about IRS.

Maybe this will help a Republican get elected next time

Add Gosnell and his Planned Parenthood.
He’s the very same as Gosnell.
The pendulum is swinging back our way. Praise God! ~ and keep praying.

As wacky as Trump has been at least he has more spine than the Repub leadership and speaks up about obvious conclusions on Obummer.

The only things that have propped zer0 up throughout his life are the obsequious fawnings of his white enablers and his hatred for white Christians/USA. This is all he has to sustain him through this storm. Bush had his Christian faith, family, etc. to lean on in tough times. Closeted homosexual Obama has only hatred toward those who gave him power to act as his compass through the tempest. This could start getting ugly.

Sorry, but the only thing that won Obama the election in 2012 was the Federal Reserve, QE, and the Fed’s ability to buy up unlimited Gov’t, agency, and crappy bank debt.

He and Reggie could have been caught tip toeing through the WH garden tulips at noon and it wouldn’t have mattered. The election fix was already in the bag.

If we had a fair and balanced media, hussein would never have been able to get elected to dogcatcher.

Control the media, control the masses.

With the story of the AP phone records that broke this afternoon, the mainstream media may now realize that Obama betrayed them, and they can no longer afford to keep propping him up.

I wouldn't want to have to put my life on the line with either of those two in charge.

Can anyone tell me who actually broke this story and how they came to have the info? I don’t trust the govt anymore. I’m still thinking it’s a diversion from Benghazi/Syria cover-up.

Mittens was weaker than Lil Barry, just as Mittens was weaker than McDemocrat in 2008.

Both parties pres vote totals were down from 2008. That means both parties excite less. People have figured out both are the same. I say again, time for a true second party.

I recall hearing all this being reported before the election. It’s just that the major media for the most part bypassed it all until now.
