Brzezinski: Dems have a problem if Trump wins

"Morning Joe" co-host Mika Brzezinski argued Friday that the Democratic Party will have a big problem on it's hands if Donald Trump wins the Republican nomination.

Minutes before the GOP front-runner was set to appear on the show, Brzezinski piggybacked off of comments by "Meet The Press" moderator Chuck Todd, who wondered when Republicans will come around to "conventional wisdom" and back the candidate who could best match up with Hillary Clinton. The left-leaning Brzezinski said that Trump is that person.

"Actually, [it's] Trump," Brzezinski told Todd. "If [GOP voters] want someone to beat Hillary Clinton, it would be Trump, because he will do things that none of those candidates will do. I'm not saying it's good, and I'm not saying it's pretty, and I'm not saying it's right."

"But the Democratic Party has a problem if Trump wins the nomination," Brzezinski said.

The comments also came on the heels of a new Morning Consult phone survey showing Trump tripling up his closest competitor with 36 percent support.

The real estate mogul currently sits second in the Washington Examiner's latest set of power rankings.

Hillary must be shitting bricks. She has the FBI looking down her back and Trump getting closer to being in her face.

She’s got a worse case of denial than Jeb.

I predict the day of that glorious event to be 1/20/2017, when Valerie Jarrett leaves the White House. Mika's been a useful idiot for ValJar for nearly 7 years.

Trump will do more for actual Democrat voters than almost anyone else. Especially anyone they actually vote for. The party itself will have a problem on their hands. More so the Republican Party who will cut ties with all the losers and get rich quick consultants.

Dems, yes, but the whole stink’n Washington Establishment along with the crony capitalists are going to have big fat headaches. Exploding heads may be audible. It is really satisfying to to see this realization creeping into the know-it-all crowd.

Dumbass! “Conventional wisdom” gave us Bob Dole, John McCain and Mitt Romney. I’m thinking more along the lines of unconventional wisdom...

And that is exactly the crux of the whole matter. NONE of the others, and I would include Cruz in that even though he is my first pick. What HAS to happen to her in a debate is an attack that strips away all of the fawning propriety afford to her as a female, ex Senator, ex SoS and grandmother. She needs to be outed as liar and conniving, soulless ghoul that has only her own power in mind.

She has to be attacked relentlessly and bedamned that “concern” suicide tendency Republicans have for not offending anyone and getting on the bad side of the media.

The truth is the media can’t help themselves. They have a hormonal power like a pretty teenage girl and can usually scare the Bejesus out of a geek (GOPe nerd), but they ALWAYS go back to that bad boy who treats them like sh!t.

That, my friend, is Trump and he could give a crap about what scares the feckless GOPe, and THAT is why he’ll get away with it and win.

No Marquess of Queensberry Rules for Trump. It will be bare-knuckle street fighting with nothing out of bounds. Her husband’s sexual exploits and trail of victims will come up for sure as Hillary attacks the GOP and Trump on the War on Women.

Actually, Trump just got a great in-kind donation by the spineless GOPe in DC who just sold us down the river

Facts:

1) Except in the very odd/exceptional election year of 1964, the Dems haven’t cracked 50% of the whites in a Presidential election since 1932.

2) Once the ‘64 election was over, the Dems understood that they would never win another Presidential election again unless the Republicans REALLY screwed up...or unless they changed the electorate in a dramatic way.

3) The Dems, courtesy of Bobby Kennedy who wrote the law, and Teddy Kennedy who pushed it in the Senate, passed the 1965 Immigration Act. That law dramatically reduced immigration from our then-traditional large sources of immigrants - England, Ireland, Holland, Germany, etc. - and replaced them with vast numbers of Turd Worlders...whom everyone knows vote around 80% for Dems, and will continue to do so for the rest of their lives, as new immigrants have traditionally done.

4) As a result of the ‘65 Act, and due to the Dem’s outright lying in ‘86 regarding an effective (or any) fence, there are now probably 30 - 40 million illegals in this nation. Note that the (probably low-ball) figure in 2005 was 11 million...we have 2-3 million come in every year, so simple math says that the number is actually somewhere between 31 and 41 million). If any substantial portion of these people ever become citizens, then the Dems will have accomplished a complete shift of the electorate, and will be virtually invincible on the national level. Every state will become like California, both politically and economically - which is to say, overwhelming Dem and broke. But at least if you don’t like California now, you can leave for a better place without much trouble - where are you going to go if EVERY state is like that?

5) Every Republican, and every Conservative voter MUST UNDERSTAND that if such a state of affairs comes to be, NO OTHER ISSUE WILL MATTER AT ALL, because we will ALWAYS AND FOREVER lose on those issues. Immigration is THE issue of this election, and this election is as critical as the 1860 election was - and for the same reason, because it will determine whether this nation continues on as it has existed in the past, or becomes a new and unrecognizable entity that simply occupies the same geographic territory.

Please wake up, and help others to do so by sending them this post (or recommending “Adios America” to them). It really is THAT important.

Just got a roll of Donald Trump toilet paper.

It is rough. It is tough. It does not take $hit off anybody. And if you complain about it, it will rip you a new a$$hole!

‘comments by “Meet The Press” moderator Chuck Todd, who wondered when Republicans will come around to “conventional wisdom” and back the candidate who could best match up with Hillary Clinton.’

This is all I hear from Trump dislikers any more: he can’t beat Hillary. That they are echoing liberal leftist progressive Chuck Todd would not, I’m guessing, bother them. They would just say a stopped clock is right twice a day.

What Mika says is likely true. I have Libtard acquaintances who just don't trust Hillary because they feel she is more interested in promoting the Clinton fortune than their left-wing Utopian vision of the world.

Whereas a year or so ago, Trump's vision of the world was somewhere between the left of Mitt Romney's and just slightly to the right of Clintons.

They think there is a better than 50-50 chance that Trump is lying about his real positions and are willing to place that bet.

And the oh so wise sage, The Great Mika Brzezinski hands out deep, astute, pearls of wisdom to us simple minded folks. We are so undeserving of your magnificent munificence oh wise and gracious one.
Ok that was fun. Back to the real world. When did the vacuous, empty headed, totally dumb Mika Brzezinski even develop a brain?

Interesting take. I too am supporting Cruz, but there is this siren song about wanting Trump to blow the crap out of the current MSM/DNC/GOP cartel.
