No, but I’ve seen my share of carney hucksters in my time.
PT Barnum would blush.
Consider a deeper look at what is going on.
You can be late to the party. It doesn't really matter--it isn't an insult to you. It's just that we are all built differently.
Trump is changing the game. He is bringing back honestly in politics.
You may disapprove and that is your perogative.
But for your own sake...take an unbiased look at what is happening.
Regarding your question to Raycpa, I joined Free Republic, when it was just getting started. Back in those days, most people used their real names as screen names including myself. After about a year, many of us changed over to fictitious names. So many of the early members re registered under different names.
Yes, the Prodigy Whitewater bulletin board was where it all began. We used to hand type articles in there because most newspapers and magazines weren’t online then and we couldn’t cut and paste.
Prodigy then began to forbid the posting of copywrited articles and Jim Robinson built us a place on the World Wild Web.
The rest is history!
“NYC was poison. The politics went back hundreds of years.”
To Boss Tweed, or even earlier.
“Trump went in there and made a fortune—changed the skyline.
How any human being could do that is beyond me.”
It is beyond me too, and I worked with high end commercial RE developers for 25 years in Los Angeles.
“Only a bona fide genius could do what Trump did.”
A remarkable confluence of intellectual brains and “street” brains.

Interesting. Thanks. So FR started in 97?
Rush was talking about that the other day. He said that conservatives have figured out that if they want their message to get out .. all they have to do is leak it to Politico.
Also, it attacks their credibility.

Try Preparation H Donnie-boy.

You must read THE TRUMPS section about his dad. He gave him the foundation. His dads partner Levin or Levine had no one to train and leave his part of business. He mentored Donald as well. It is part of the reason he is so respected by the NYC Jewish community. He was raised with their sons.
Yes he is smart but he had two very knowledgeable strong men who trained him from the cradle
.
Truth is not defamatory.
.
I first registered under a different name. But can’t remember what now.

>> “Trump is changing the game. He is bringing back honestly in politics.” <<
???
His self-remake is honest suddenly?
Sorry no!
.
“... denounced the ads as false, and obtained publicity to that effect without having to run counter-ads.”
This is the very smart move Trump has made. It’s public now that the ads are false .. and Trump doesn’t have to spend money countering them. Very, very clever.
Nice to have a candidate so smart.
Excellent post.
Learn something every day. Was always impressed with the international posts. When the Chinese had our airplane FR was the only reliable source of information
I don’t think you are an idiot. But you are acting like one.
Amen!
.
Because I don’t go along with your sloganeering?
Trump has to bring honesty to himself before he can bring it anywhere else.
.
e = ELITEST OR ELITES (take your pick)
In other words .. not Trump or Cruz.
