Actually, it really is a rebellion
February 10, 2016 | Jim Robinson

Posted on 02/10/2016 11:44:39 AM PST by Jim Robinson

As much as I love Cruz as a conservative, there really is a voter rebellion underway and it may be unstoppable. Despite all the denials, the simple truth is the voters really are fed-up and really are up in arms against the establishment.

Trump's message is exactly what the voters are looking for:

Build the wall, enforce the law, deport them all, slap a moratorium on Muslim immigration, bomb the hell out of ISIS, cut the taxes, cut the spending, cut the regulations, cut the government, cut the bad trade deals, cut the political correctness crap, bring back capital, bring back manufacturing, bring back jobs, get the economy back on track, rebuild the military so no one messes with us and make America great again!

It's a winning message.

The rallies are real.

The pent up anger is real.

The rebellion is real!

GOPe RINOs Bush, Rubio, Kasich, et al, stand no chance whatsoever.

We still have hope for conservative Cruz to pull it out, but this is Trump's Rebellion to lose.

Go, Cruz, GO!!

Go, Trump, GO!!

Either way, we win, they lose.

He cajoled the liberal MSM to fund his campaign and you doubt he can get Mexico to build the fence? Please pay attention!

Jim,
Dittos. Hopefully something good for a change might emerge
out of this all.
If anything. Let the Republican establishment within the halls
of Congress to name one element, start to think carefully
at how they conduct business.

If Trump is the GOP nominee, I will vote for a 3rd party or write-in.

Your third party or write-in conservative will save the day.

I know how you feel. I couldn't force myself to vote for Jeb.

“HOW is he going to build the wall?”

Well, Trump is a builder, but I would think that it goes something like this:

1. Sends over and gets blueprints for a section of the Israeli wall for comparison purposes.

2. Authorizes, through his own contacts, engineers to draw up plans.

3. Sends out survey parties

4. Authorizes panel of experts to draw up logistics

5. Open bids for a contract

6. Selects a builder

7. Authorizes them to begin construction

8. Americans on the border will greet builders with milk and cookies.

“Trump will dump conservatives whenever public pressure and the media make it in his interest to do so.”

Because Trump has a habit of kowtowing to media pressure?

But at least Jeb doesn't pretend to be a conservative. And no one would delude themselves into believing Jeb to be a conservative.

And in 4 years, the conservative movement could try again.

If it's Donald, the conservative brand will become tarnished and discredited for more than a generation.

So he is a king now?

Since when can he authorize anything financially without Congress?

RE:that our Founding Fathers called for citizen politicians who served for a few years then went back home.

By way of analogy, Trump could be a modern- day "Cincinnatus."

Yup, he is a media creation. Pure and simple.

And the media hates conservatism so they push Trump knowing he is about as conservative as Hillary and Schumer.

Cruz is a peacemaker. Trump is a warlord.

The opposition spent years and millions making Cruz look like a radical. Now they’ve lost the peacemaker and they get the warlord.

You mean you don’t think he can’t find a few billion dollars lying around?

A president can send troops into battle without Congressional permission. It is not a stretch for him to authorize the building of a wall.

All he has to do is declare some kind of state of emergency, or in other words, correctly state the problem. The bill authorizing erection of a wall was passed about ten years ago.
