How the unhinged left is helping Donald Trump

The truth is Hillary was afraid of Cruz and Rubio. She wanted Trump as her opponent because she "knew" that no real conservative would vote for a twice-divorced womanizer.

The coverage that Trump got was very tame compared to now and it ended up being worth millions of dollars for the exposure he got.

There were a lot of stories the LSM could have run but they didn't. NBC bought a fierce British expose that I thought they would use at some point, but they never did. Why not? Because, they were instructed to "damage, but not too much."

My point is Hillary wanted a sure fire win for herself and she thought that Trump would deliver her the presidency. All she had to do was get him to the point where he would be the winner of all the primaries.

This should make both of you very happy as it does me because Trump winning increased the frustration for the LSM a hundred-fold. They did their job to deliver Trump through the primaries only to have sold him TOO WELL in the end.

Years ago, when Pat Buchanan was running for president, I heard a big news reporter say, "I like Pat, I really do, but we are going to have to take him down." And, they did.

The LSM did not go full bore on Trump, yeah they got a little mean, but they were not going to hurt his chances of being Hillary's preferred opponent.

So what did Trump do? He won when he wasn't supposed to and it proved that she is not the brightest bulb on the chandelier. Trump is.

Now they are bellyaching to beat the band. And, it pleases me greatly.

No, Jeb was the designated Republican opponent - agreed to by both sides - well before the campaign kicked off.

His job was to gracefully lose to Hillary - the historic first woman president in our history.

Trump was never factored into the Uniparty's well laid plans, and was a wild card that came out of nowhere.

He won, in large part, because the political establishment had no idea how to deal with such a candidate. He was independently wealthy, a name brand, industry titan, widely admired, best selling author, beholden to no one, and completely uncontrollable.

There was nothing in any of their playbooks that could help them tackle such a character. He flummoxed the entire establishment so badly, Obama resorted to siccing his deep state jackals on his campaign, in a last ditch effort to either find some dirt on him, or set his people up to commit some federal offense.

In the end, nothing worked, and Trump beat them all.

Again you COMPLETELY miss the point, which is what happens when you spend so much time with your head in the tee vee. Liberal OR conservative.

Donald Trump is one of the two or three best businessmen of the 20th and 21st century.

The economy was terrible.

A LOT of people of both parties thought maybe we should put a businessman in the White House.

Forget Hillary and all the other extraneous BS. A big bloc of voters wanted Donald Trump because he WAS Donald Trump, world-class businessman.

And they still do. Because it’s WORKING.

Well said, Windflier. And now they better be careful about taking pitchforks to a gunfight.

Can’t predict crazy. Half the reason why I’ve been here so long.

:P

Two (formerly) unhinged liberals discussing the aftermath of CWII...

Lib 1: "Dude....what...what the xxxx just happened to us??"

Lib 2: "You really wanna know the truth? We thought we were opening a can of worms, but it was really a can of whoopass."

Does anyone know what the Democrats have to offer as a political party except hate? Hate Trump, the police, the military, most white men, Christianity, national sovereignty, just to name a few in their endless stream of hate.

Yet, we have "Morning Joe" regular Donny Deutsch, an ad executive and Scarborough sycophant, saying it's not only Donald Trump who progressives should hold accountable, it's everybody who supports him. "This can no longer be about who Trump is, it has to be about who we are," Deutsch said about the next elections. "We can no longer say Trump's the bad guy. If you vote for Trump, you're the bad guy." Then, the inevitable comparison to Hitler and the Nazis. "If you vote for Trump, then you, the voter, you, not Donald Trump, are standing at the border, like Nazis," Deutsch said. "If you vote, you can no longer separate yourself" from the "evilness of Donald Trump."

These aren't radicals in the Alinsky sense of the word who believe in working within a constituency to gain power. These are anarchists and revolutionaries who's message falls well outside of any effective group that will support them. The reason these fools are making these statements are known only to them and a limited group of hyper-hate filled individuals who will not gain acceptance within any group which can help their cause.

The Kameleon Harris from the Left Coast and the Hyphenated Hispanic from New York chanting for dissolution of ICE are way, way outside of any effective constituency and will be shunned by most Democrat voters outside their little comfort zones. A left leaning pollster just found that 60% of Democrats and 75% of independents do not agree with their ridiculous notions. That's no way to win elections in a broad base of America and the longer they scream these extreme views, the more independents and hopefully Dems will vote for the Republican choices outside the East and Left Coast.

Let them carry on while making a point to voters the craziness of their positions. Then laugh at them all the way to the swearing in ceremony.

A big bloc of voters wanted Donald Trump because he WAS Donald Trump, world-class businessman. * * * I was one of those voters!  From the moment he came down the escalator, I was captivated by what he might do to thoroughly change Presidential politics... and fix the country. Rather than being "unqualified" to be POTUS, Trump understood politics at a very deep level because he made deals with the big city bosses of New York and Chicago. So many steps he took in life prepared him for his TRiUMPhant electoral victory -- and his current success as President. — Writing business success books (he created the category) — His cultivating of the New York tabloids — The Apprentice — Buying Mar a Lago and many golf courses — Cultivating people in celebrity, sports, and Black circles Now in terms of business, I think he made his mark mostly as a private, entrepreneurial businessman.  Trump understands public company business and Wall Street, but he was never a creature of Wall Street.  Rather, he took Main Street (lone entrepreneur) business to its highest level. And to become the King of Main Street business — where you get to call your own shots and not do the bidding of Wall Street financiers — he had to become the King of Self-Promotion. And when you combine Self-Promotion with entrepreneurial competence, well, there's maybe nothing in this world you can't achieve — as he's proving!

Also factor in that Trump has decades of experience in getting free media coverage, though not nearly as intense as now or during the campaign.

The media also made big bucks through higher ratings. A symbiotic relationship.

Well, lemme see if I can think of a few redeeming qualities...

They do like jihadist muslims, sexual perverts, invading illegal hordes, socialist despots, melanin enriched racists, abortionists, environmentalist wackos, the MSM, street thugs, illiterates, flag burners, anarchists, the Clintons, and Hollywood reprobates.

Heck, man, They've got love and tolerance in their hearts for all kinds of 'diverse' people.

See? Dems aren't so bad after all. They've got a huge message of love to run on, you hater.

My response is “if Trump were a Nazi, you’ d be in a prison camp now”.

The “off-Broadway” version of this played out in Wisconsin six years ago. It doesn’t end well for the lefties. Walker’s numbers improved in the recall vote, and except for a couple of stolen seats (bused in voters with store flyers for ID), the attempts to recall senators and reps also failed. More conservative judges were voted in. Now Wisconsin in purple trending red.

SCARBOROUGH AND DEUTCH NEED IMMEDIATE PROFESSIONAL CARE: "Deutch says, "If you vote for Trump, then you, the voter, you, not Donald Trump, are standing at the border, like Nazis," Deutsch said. "If you vote, you can no longer separate yourself" from the "evilness of Donald Trump." Scarborough unblinkingly said: "Children at the border are being marched away to showers just like the Nazis said that they were taking people to the showers, and then they never came back." Scarborough really believes this.

You got two very sick people on cable TV. The Nazi-infused thinking of Deutch and Scarborough is appalling.
The verisimilitude come so easy to them. They must lay awake nights contemplating Nazism and all its permutations.

We Conservatives will always remain more than curious just exactly what WAS the information BJC shared with DJT in that conversation the two had before Trump’s hat was thrown into the ring. Slick Willie said SOMETHING that caused alarms in the brain of future POTUS - Just what was shared? At the time, it was thought (personally) Bill had a plan to help his Hill become what she aspired to be... thus a nominee she might overcome. Given thought, the conclusion was brushed aside; why should Trump, a very well educated, wealthy businessman waste his time, money, intellectual ability in order to achieve something he might never have: the chance of winning. Being no one’s stooge - DJT considered Bill’s advice which begins another story.

“The election of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in NYC will strengthen the position of the crazies in the Democrat party.”

While they are the useful idiots of the left, the crazies can never match the big bucks of the liberal elites. How many big donors are in districts filled with multi-generational welfarians? The big donors control the party, and the “superdelegates” assure that. They aren’t going to fund some hoodrat who demonizes them; she’ll just remain the “queen of welfare reservation NY-14”. They know she won’t play well anywhere across the fruited plain where Americans go to work every day.
