Anyone who is viewing the battle between Donald Trump and Megyn Kelly as a representative battle of thin-skinned ego is entirely missing the point.

In many ways Fox’s Roger Ailes and Republican Mitch McConnell carry the same ideological character trait, deception. For McConnell his deceptive ways allow him to retain power inside the DC construct. For Roger Ailes manipulation benefits his media dominance and political interests. Neither McConnell nor Ailes can actually be trusted.
It all boils down to a very familiar problem. Would you rather rid yourself of the schemer, manipulator and deceiver who claims to be your friend – and as a consequence face a visible enemy in their stead. Or do you chose to be associated within the camp of a person you can never fully trust.
The 2014 re-election of Mitch McConnell was a case study in choosing between the lesser of these two evils. If you don’t re-elect him your team may not win control of the Senate; but if you do elect him your team may win control – but you’ll never be able to trust him to do what he says.
We are all witnessing the 2015 reality of McConnell’s untrustworthy legislative behavior; he lied to get re-elected, and he’s only working on the priorities of Tom Donohue, Wall Street, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

Good article. Thanks for posting.
I got polled earlier this evening.
Taking a break from the “What would you choose between the following two .. “ and “Would you say you are very, somewhat (sliding scale) and after a series of my “Very unhappy” responses, I asked the nice, professional young man,
“Why do you think a guy like Trump is doing so well?”
The Decepticons are running?
Hell, I’ll vote for them! At least they’re honest about their apathy towards the public, and they have a sound energy policy.
WOW! SD is right in that regard! Thanks :) Samson tears down the pillars of o-king and his court players, the rhinos of congress. Give the man more hair!!! WE MUST SEE THIS MAN WALKS THRU THOSE WH DOORS!! He is fighting our battles and praying he shall be VICTORIOUS!
Thanks Amtn~
Quejumbroso= whining
So Jorge es un quejumbrosodor?
GTHOOMC you quejumbrosodor looser.
No whiners allowed.
I think Trump goes after Fox because at least he knows CNN, CBS, etc., are liberal. Fox masquerades as conservative, thus drawing his wrath.
bttt
The media, the GOPe, and the liberals all have to be taken down in that order.
Trump had taken big strides in the first of the three.
Exactly. He knows that only FOX tries to sell themselves to conservatives. The others don’t pretend.

TRUMP masquerades as a conservative..
We all want to see him bring down the whole house of cards...then TRUMP ‘em :)
They’re still attempting to find just what HIT them. LOL (high five/handshake, fellow traveler) Looks as though we both picked a winner!!!
If that is the case then why has Trump never had anything disparaging to say regarding Cruz or Carson yet has lambasted the rinos constantly? What? Is he saving them for last? Somehow I just don’t think so.

Easy question: Because he knows most all conservative like Cruz and Carson and don’t want offend the very ones he’s trying to TRICK..
Not to speak of the fact most of what he says while speaking was said first by CRUZ...
And Cruz still says those things... better and more sincerely..
And stands for those ideas in the Senate as the GOPe and democrats attack him for it.. before TRUMP even became a RINO..
Cruz wants to RESTORE the Constitution, TRUMP could care less about the Constitution, like all liberals..
And FORCE his plans by Executive Orders.. like him that I hate mentioning..
Are you of the opinion that Cruz would not accept a VP slot with Trump?
What is Trumps end game IYO.Cant be for the money and I could see if all this was a trick that it would so damage the Trump image he could not recover and he has his kids to think about.

If too many conservatives are TRICKED he will become the next President..
Being VeeP would put him(Cruz) the Position to watch TRUMP closely AND TURN ON HIM if he did “something” wrong..
However; TRUMP would NEVER pick Cruz as VEEP?.. WHY?..
Because Cruz is honest and it would take little impetus for him to do a TRUMP on TRUMP like Trump did on the GOPe..
Like a Joe Biden that isn’t a MORON.. TRUMP is too smart to pick Cruz... Cruz Knows TRUMP is a RINO..
What is Trumps end game IYO
Trump is ONLY running for President to DENY Cruz being President.. Cruz would be death to the Crony Capitalists..
I like him attacking the GOPe but am not fooled by him at all..
NOTICE: with a plethora of material TRUMP is wont to attack the democrats... except for Obama..
He says nothing about the democrat party OR the Unions..
MOST FREEPERS miss that -OR- make excuses for it..
Cruz does it all the time..
TRUMP has a good game too... no doubt about that..
With respect to Trump’s conservatism:
“There is NOTHING more conservative than stopping a permanent democrat/marxist voting majority and doing whats best for the people and the country. By virtue of Mr.Trump’s position on illegal immigration he “Trumps” all others conservatism.”
The other candidates are all mealy mouthed about immigration. Realize congress has voted & passed to build a fence twice now in my lifetime. Then they don’t fund it.
