It’s been right there all along; a sense, an instinctual sense, a gut feeling, since late June 2015, and in all the subsequent months, it just kept reoccurring – and with the passing of events, each time it became more and more difficult to dismiss….
Before getting to the heart of this entirely speculative presentation, and specifically because it’s so far out there that, well, if accurate, a litany of people will claim we had to hold some insider connection, we must restate and remind everyone – we have never had any contact with any entity from the Donald Trump organization. Period.
Two semi-connected articles surface recently which tip the scales toward actually sitting down and writing these words.
One is an obscure but accurate summary of the GOPe Road Map and Splitter Strategy (which we have outlined since 2014, and presented with specific detail in 2015) which a person took up, expanded and tried to explain in one article – presented HERE. The second article is a more mainstream source, the New York Times presented HERE. (both should be absorbed)
Now let me try to explain.
When Donald Trump announced his candidacy on June 16th 2015, something odd presented itself almost immediately. Within the oddity you will actually find the reason why CTH was supportive of Trump from the first day of his announcement. You see, the odd thing was Team Trump did stuff almost ‘as if’ he/they knew the same things we had been writing about for the 18 months previous.
In June, July, and August 2015, the actions Trump was taking, the specific things he was doing and saying, were exactly the things we would predict a candidate would do and say if they too knew the GOPe Road Map and Splitter Strategy was the grand scheme to be defeated. But it couldn’t be, right? Right?
I mean c’mon. There’s no way this guy could actually have tracked all those insider meetings in DC (2013, 2014) and beyond: with the RNC Rules Committee, the national and then state RNC apparatus’s, the BIG donors, the Wall Street affiliates, the professional consulting class, the legislative leaders and meetings with Tom Donohue (CoC) etc. There’s no way he could have looked at all of it and reached the same conclusion.
I mean, there’s no way this guy would have looked at all of it and come to the same conclusion as this little obscure discussion blog on the internet that no-one pays any attention to. Right?
Ridiculous. Right?
Yet the stuff Trump was doing, was ‘as if’ he were two steps ahead of them. Heck, in hindsight, two months ahead of them.
When we outlined the pathway for Jeb Bush it seemed incredulous even to ourselves, so when people said we were nuts, whacko, conspiracy theorists, and “good researchers on other stuff who have jumped the shark to the land of insanity” (that one from Lucianne was LOL funny), it did not come as a surprise.
However, as each domino hit the next domino in the strategic sequence we had outlined in the road-map and splitter strategy, via tripwires, something weird happened. The shouts of derision grew quieter and quieter.
But the entire thing still seemed rather unfathomable even to us as we tried to explain the unexplainable, and contextualize something that was infinitely more Machiavellian than we could rightfully explain. Yet now, almost everyone accepts the broad strokes of the GOPe constructed plan were indeed as they always seemed to be in the original outline back in 2014 and early 2015.
But that’s not the point.
The weird part was watching a presidential campaign operate ‘as if’ they knew all of this stuff even further afield of our own advance recon efforts.
One of the key aspects that kept drawing us back to this sense of campaign synergy was how relentless Trump was on Jeb Bush. Even when Jeb dropped to 4% in the polls, Trump kept nailing him and keeping him from re-emerging. It was ‘as if’ his campaign knew the goal would always be Jeb – and that is the foundational block of the entire GOPe plan all along.
Here’s the even more crazy speculation part. I’m now almost 80% convinced that Donald Trump came to the same conclusion of the GOPe intent as we presented on these pages for the past 18+ months. Somehow, when he announced/launched his exploratory committee is was not an “exploration” of viability per se’, but rather a 3 month strategy session for how to defeat the entire apparatus underpinning the plan.
There are just too many coincidences, too many specific moves that were taken, which align with what a campaign would need to do – if they too reached the same ultimate conclusion.
Having said that, it appears in hindsight the phrase “let Trump be Trump“, was not about letting candidate Donald Trump be the overly brazen vulgarian larger than life figure who somehow manages to find a way to turn certain defeat into victory.
No, “let Trump be Trump” in this context is: Let Donald Trump execute the careful plan he has developed over the past several years, to eliminate the hurdles that no-one sees, except him, that lay afore him.
You see, this Trump is the intensely strategic long-range planner Trump who has developed his own roadmap to defeat their scheme. All of it “them”, and all of “it”.
If this overwhelming ‘spidey-sense’, this crazy speculation you are reading, is actually accurate, then EVERYTHING you are seeing today – which everyone sees as reactionary – is not a reaction, but a calculated and methodical pro-active plan. A brilliant plan.
A brilliant plan filled with intense foresight and insanely high levels of strategic thinking which even includes pre-staging people, events, and situations along a very specific path where and when Donald Trump knows he will need them.
If this is accurate, and again I reassert this is insanely speculative, this also implies the Chris Christie aspect was indeed a calculated pre-determined move at least 18 months ago. And what’s more, even beyond Chris Christie, there’s every reason to believe Trump has an ally in at least one more camp still in the race.
My hunch is now telling me there’s a person who was bitterly betrayed by the “establishment” inside Team Cruz; and almost everyone can guess who that person is (with enough thought, and a paradigm shift toward pre-planning). A person waiting, like a trigger, to be pulled if needed. However, at this point it’s doubtful they will be needed.
If you are still with me, and if you are generally understanding what this means in the larger context, then we must also accept that Trump specifically knew what lines of attack would come when the GOPe entered their desperation mode. [“A drowning man is also a danger”]. If accurate Trump would have pre-planned for the racist attack, for the sexist attack, and for the financial attack (tax returns) etc.
A level of pre-planning that puts him in a position to actually create the attack itself and make it useful. Meaning, he’s baiting them.
Every move pre-planned, every action -while seeming to be a reaction- is actually a pro-active execution of the plan. Let Trump be Trump, is let Trump execute his plan.
If accurate, Trump is intentionally giving the appearance of vulnerability in order to bait the opposition into an attack he has a crushing response already previously thought out.
If his opponent doesn’t attack strongly enough to create the benefit of the intended impact he desires, he simply appears more vulnerable; and that makes his opposition attack with more intensity. However, all-the-while Trump is waiting patiently to use the atomic sledgehammer, waiting, waiting, waiting….
He wants to be called a racist, he has a plan for it. He wants to be called a sexist, he has a plan for it. He wants them to attack intensely because the responses are more valuable when the attack is strongest. In short, he has thought through all the angles, all of the ‘if-this-then-that’ approaches. He’s been months ahead the entire time.
If accurate, Trump is baiting the RNC/GOPe because he knew all along that removing Jeb Bush would lead to an open convention challenge. To bring out all the enemies into one battle venue, he needs to give them a trail to follow – he needs all of them to come out of the shadows feeling safe in their attack (See Paul Ryan today).
Donald Trump wants his enemies, America’s embedded enemies, emboldened and feeling empowered. He also wants to give the illusion of vulnerability – he’s drawing them out.
I told you this was “out there”. But if even remotely accurate, my hunch is Trump has some major “closing surprises” just waiting to be triggered…
…perhaps tonight.
Does anyone know who is that mystery person inside Ted Cruz campaign?
Now that's more like it.
Don't make me come down there and show you how proper freepins' done....or sumpin. Mebbe I'll just steal your fish.
Well, my picture's been up on my home page for years, but if you want to know:
Ronnie Bell, Dallas, Texas.
Pleased to meet you.
Hi Ronnie, thanks for your response. If you ever get up this direction, let me know. I’d be pleased to buy your lunch/dinner. I’ve got a daughter living in Plano. She tells me I don’t come visit enough. I just don’t want to be a helicopter dad.
Blessings to you,
Guy
Maybe a bit off topic but I literally just had this encounter.
I grabbed the elevator from my 20th floor apt heading to the lobby to the convenience store for more beer. But that’s not important right now.
I stopped on 16 and a POS a little Arab 20 something walked in. My building is full of Muslims.
I said “Hey, I saw you earlier” Trying to be friendly.
He said with a gleeful smile “Did you vote in the Primary?”
I replied “No, I’m waiting for the dust to settle. Who did you vote for?” trying to be a bit coy.
He replied “Sanders”
I asked, “Why?”
He said with the same gleeful projection that greeted me from the start, “Because he is for the middle class”.
And as I reached my floor and exited the elevator I looked back at his retarded smiling Arab face and said, “You’re an idiot”
Was I wrong?
Why declare a third party when you’ve hijacked someone else’s?
It’s like a pirate getting a stupid streak and building a boat he already just finished stealing.
The last thing that will be said in the convention will be by Trump: “You dolt’s made me! I was inevitable, and you are damn lucky I won this thing and not someone else. Now, get in line, or get run over.”
See #23, then follow the link to Breitbart.
The GOP is desperate, to the point where they will destroy the GOP if need be, and doesn’t care what anyone thinks.
Right on, Guy. If your baby girl ever needs something in a pinch, you let me know. I can get to Plano pretty quick.
Maybe you and I can shake hands and have a beer at one of the annual Freeper gatherings in Texas. If you’ve never been to one, they’re a blast. Literally!
I don’t believe that for a second.
Some years back, an Eastern-bloc country suffered a spontaneous popular revolt which brought down & replaced the government in one day. It was pretty dramatic, the police beating on protesters - and then turning to join them ... someone found a bulldozer and rammed the front door of the Parliament ... just a crazy tense day that turned out for the better.
Except it wasn’t spontaneous.
It had been in planning for ten years.
Every surprise was planned, every psychological turn orchestrated, every contingency covered.
Wouldn’t surprise me in the least to figure Trump had this whole run planned out, likewise, over the last 10 years. He knows that people must be persuaded, scandals discovered & handled, outrageous mis-steps made and recanted, etc ... so he planned them.
Just because we sneer at “conspiracy theories” doesn’t mean they don’t happen. They’re necessary in some cases, and can be very effective.
Oh, Trump spinning off a third party? won’t happen. Most voters have already made up their minds before any names are mentioned (I’m not voting Democrat, that’s for sure, no matter who they run). The race is for the ~5% in the middle that can be persuaded. Third party = guaranteed loss. Why take the risk, when he can take over the Republican ticket?
OK but this “unity” talk - is that also a baiting strategy of some sort? This “unity” stuff is unsettling. Every time you hear the Right OR the Left talk about “unity” it ALWAYS means the Right HAS to move over to the Left.
I don’t want to see Mr. Trump start to turn left at some point here. Mr. Trump and the Right need to hold their ground and fight for America, the American People, and freedom, unity with the Left or not. Force the Left to CHANGE or DIE.
We saw from Reagan’s example that the way to bring in others is not by compromising on limited government and freedom but by CLEARLY COMMUNICATING THE MESSAGE of the advantage and desirability of LESS government and MORE freedom from government.
Reagan’s uncompromising MESSAGE resonated across party lines. Once he was in there, Reagan was a master negotiator holding fast to the 70% he would not budge on, letting the 30% go, but after the 70% worked so well, he’d also get the 30%. THAT is masterful negotiating and forced the Left to move to the right, not visa versa. The results were strength at home - unprecedented 25 years of economic growth and prosperity - and strength abroad - the collapse of the USSR, our greatest enemy at the time.
Reagan’s message never softened up on the Left, it intensified. He put high-beam spotlights on exactly what the Left represented and who they really were. The result was the Left actual began avoiding the term “liberal” because Reagan had shown Americans that “liberal” (Leftism) was actually a dirty word. BUT behind the scenes he was not antagonistic and would negotiate with them.
I hope these concepts are in Mr. Trump’s master plan.
OKLAHOMA......Midwest City/Choctaw specifically - my second home. When I leave Ohio Texas and OK are my two top choices.
BTTT!

Which Eastern-bloc country and what are the odds Trump did this 'on his own'... if he really did it? Just curious...
Better late than never ping; check out article.
Thanks, SatinDoll.
bkmk
I’ve never looked until now but my, you are a handsome feller.
:)
Thank you, ma’am (blushing).
