"Kids, you tried your best and you failed miserably,” the great Homer Simpson once observed. “The lesson is: never try.” That’s probably how the so-called “smart set” within the Republican Party feels these days. Ever since Mitt Romney’s 2012 defeat—a loss that caught everyone off guard except for people who followed public opinion polls or read a newspaper—we Republicans were promised a tough, new approach to the presidential primary process.

Trump is saying what many of us are thinking.
Yes, he is. He has the Dims and the RINO’s in full panic mode. They’re coming out, today, fully loaded with one hit piece, after another. What does that tell you? They’re running skeert.
LOL...you’re entitled to show up, here, every few months and voice your opinion.
Just don’t insinuate that long-time FReeper’s are tools of the Uni-Party, when you’re appearing to be one, yourself.
Trump is doing the job we sent Pubbies to do - in 2010, 2012 and 2014 - that they’ve NOT done. He’s brought more issues to the table (illegal immigration/fence, help for our Vets; defunding Planned Parenthood, etc.) - with legislative results, than the DC Cartel has done, in decades.
If someone is having success at schooling the establishment, and his obviously polling high, why show up just to bash Trump AND FReepers who support what Trump’s doing (which, btw, includes Mr Robinson)?
I got news for you dude. The spit has been well underway for some time. And the GOPe is directly to blame. They’ve brought it upon themselves.
Trump is just speeding up the process. The GOPe must die; follow the Whig party into obscurity.
Personally, I support Cruz. But boy howdy am I enjoying the show. Long, l-o-n-g overdue.
Heh.. There are plenty of “Long time freepers” that support idiots. I remember a few who supported Thad recently. Or Arnold back when he joined the runnoff election for Gov.
Tools are tools... By choice or because they are just ignorant.
Here is a plan. Support the bashing the GOPe by trump and anyone else doing so but make sure to HIGHLIGHT Cruz.. Lets use trumps loud mouth to push Cruz.
Cruz is the real deal. Trump is a clown... But if we can use him (trump) to advance a real conservative (Cruz) in his effort to dismantle the GOPe.. So be it... BUt just so Yall know... If you really believe trump is anything but a “willing accomplice” to the UNI-Party then you have fell for the Media Hype and the PR campaign.
Agree...
The GOPe MUST die... AND we need to get Cruz elected president.
Trump is saying all these things you want to hear because how else is he going to derail the cruz / walker trains? The gope candidates were falling flat and none of the old standby fake conservatives were gaining any traction.
It looked like this election cycle, conservatives had finally learned the lesson of the past and were going to unite behind a real conservative for the primaries.
The uni-party had to do something to shake things up so... Enter the con man... trump... past democrat and hillary supporter. How is this TV show host and PR guy gonna pull away conservatives? Its not an effen secret that conservatives have been looking for a Fire brand leader with the courage to take the fight to the GOPe... AND the democrats!
wait? We have those people already.. But the media Ignores, downplays, etc... Why? because well.. their democrats... So why on earth are they hyping trump? Make no friggen mistake... What you are seeing IS hype and the media would NOT go along with it if it did not benefit the democrats or the UNI-Party.
If trump really was this “fire breathing” conservative there is no way he could have ever been a democrat and there is no way he could have ever supported Hillary or any other “modern” democrat. He is a fake.
Not buying that the GOPe set up Trump to be the con man, for them. I just don’t believe they’re that smart. He’s hitting all the buttons they don’t want him to hit. Illegal immigration: the GOPe is all for it.
My personal opinion is that Trump is a business man, and the status quo on both side has become detrimental to business. And it has.
I’m not sure he really wants the job. I mean,imagine the restraints that would put on his business. Now he does have, arguably, three very bright, well educated and successful children who can take over the reigns. So maybe I’m wrong on that.
Regardless, I’m a Cruz man, but I’ll support Trump for as long as he wants to make the whores in DC squirm. It’s about damn time and what needs to be said, and damn the torpedoes . And for that I thank him.
And Cruz and him did have a sit down. Wonder what happened there. Hmmm?
