Vote Trump
The term ‘populist’ is a vague and perjorative term for a majority felt opinion.
LOL, nice cover art. Jeb should probably be bleeding.
It’s important not to forget that only a few weeks ago, Trump singularly upset the whole election apple cart!
Trump set the national agenda by opposing illegal immigration and bringing up other issues that the GOPe and their allies desperately wanted to avoid, and now they can’t.
The GOPe was not prepared for this, and as a consequence they don’t have a clue about what to do, hence their almost universal collapse into a pile of quivering jello, flip-flopping like a bag of Mexican jumping beans dumped on a hot griddle.
Trump has exposed those who pretend to be conservative but are really just fronts for big money establishment campaign donors who purchase their candidates with campaign “donations”.
Trump, by actually being a real man, has exposed the other candidates (Cruz excepting of course) and their allies for the weak little sniveling sellouts that they really are.
Trump’s vociferous truth-telling and fearless neutering of the kommie media have been the catalyst that triggered a massive revolt amongst conservative voters who are infuriated at the GOPe Congress doing absolutely ZERO to stop Obama’s agenda, and suddenly the GOP RINO leadership is in full blown panic mode and in full blown retreat, and the SMALL conservative House contingent smelt blood in the water, took heart, and charged in against a weakened, frightened and paralyzed GOPe leadership, and Boehner was taken out as a sacrificial lamb.
Trump is absolutely correct when he says that without Trump in the race, everything would be same-ol’, same-ol. The Joyful Tippy-Toes Turtle would be creeping closer to the finish line, Boehner would still be safely ensconced as Speaker, and there would be no mention of illegal immigration are any of the issues surrounding it by any politician in either party, other than possibly how critical it would be to pass immigration “reform”.
The media are loath to make the connection, but it’s obvious that the Boehner resignation was yet another falling domino, toppling due to the Trump Effect, because Trump’s unabashed truth-telling and fearless neutering of the kommie media triggered a revolt amongst the great unwashed GOP masses which emboldened a few conservative Congress critters to grow a few pairs.
And we wouldn’t even be having ANY of these conversations about illegal immigration and the myriad of other Obammunist issues destroying our country if it wasn’t for Trump. Instead, we’d simply be debating which RINO, GOPe squish would be least likely to be stomped by Hillary, and the GOPe would once again be exhorting the “base” about how critical it is for us to once again vote for the “lesser of two evils”, that is, vote for the GOPe side of the Uniparty coin.
And do note that ALL of the oligarchs and plutocrats are frightened to death of Donald Trump because the billionaires and millionaires can’t buy him like all of the other politicians they routinely purchase, because Trump doesn’t need nor want their money, and the kommie media is frightened to death of him because he isn’t afraid of them either, the bottom line being that Donald Trump can not be controlled by the rich and powerful or the corrupt media, so for anyone who is truly for campaign finance reform and wants to take money out of politics, voting for Trump is the only reasonable choice.
President Trump is really the last hope for this country: if he can’t undo any of the damage wrought by the Obammunists, the U.S.A. is done.
So least we forget, the above, and much more, are called “The Trump Effect”.
Just as the GOP elites have planned. Jeb will be the nominee.
I hate to be labeled by the “conservative media”. I consider myself a conservative but maybe not “their” view of a conservative. I believe we need the best person to be in charge of getting our America back angain. We need a Pappy Boyington, a George Patton. We need someone who is adept at kicking ass and knocking heads. Screw the labels.
On January 19, Donald Trump, the loudest Republican claimant to the anti-establishment label, filled out his recent attacks on Ted Cruz in a very telling way, as revealed on Mark Levin's radio program ...
We've been contacted by the establishment types. They all want to know, how do they get involved with the campaign? They're giving up on their candidate...and I mean these are real establishment people, that I've known when I was a member of the establishment -- meaning a giver, a big donor. But they are contacting us -- Corey [Trump's campaign manager], I think we can say that very honestly, they're contacting us left and right about joining the campaign, and these are serious establishment types.
Who might these "real," "serious" establishment types be? Perhaps there is a hint in this subsequent comment, a follow-up to his recent pro-establishment assault against Ted Cruz:
So when you talk about temperament, Ted has got a rough temperament, I don't know. You know, you can't call people liars on the Senate floor, when they're your leader.
This, of course, is a direct reference to Cruz's criticism of Mitch McConnell regarding the GOP establishment leader's secret deal with Barack Obama prior to a trade vote.
Donald Trump defending Mitch McConnell, you ask? The answer is yes, and the explanation may be found by examining Trump's recent history as a political donor.
I'm all in for Trump because I think he can actually win the general election.
I do not fool myself into believing he is a hard conservative...he is NOT.
I do think he is our last chance to save the country before the democrats manage to change the demographics in such a way that we end up some kind of Marxist/fascist/atheist nation.
I just hope Ted Cruz is along for the wild ride as trump's VP ... Trump needs his sharp mind and knowledge to help guide him on his quest to rescue this nation.
"Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz is doubling up his attacks, targeting rivals Donald Trump and Marco Rubio in one fell swoop.
Cruz on Wednesday said the GOP establishment is lining up behind Trump because they think Rubio is faltering.
"Right now the establishment is abandoning Marco Rubio," Cruz said, according to the Washington Post.
"They're making the assessment that Marco can't win this race, and the Washington establishment is rushing over to support Donald Trump. We're seeing that every day. And Mr. Trump is welcoming the support of the Washington establishment."
The comments came on the same day 1996 GOP presidential nominee Bob Dole questioned Cruz's ability to work with Congress if he were to be president, while heaping praise on Trump.
"I question his allegiance to the party," Dole said of Cruz. "I don't know how often you've heard him say the word 'Republican' - not very often.
"If he's the nominee, we're going to have wholesale losses in Congress and state offices and governors and legislatures," he added.
Dole added that Trump, on the other hand, "can probably work with Congress, because he's, you know, he's got the right personality and he's kind of a deal-maker."
Cruz used these comments to launch an attack against Trump, questioning his commitment to conservatism.
"Indeed, Mr. Trump said that they should support him, because - he said - 'Ted won't go along to get along. He won't make deals with the Democrats.' Well, I don't think there are a lot of Republicans who think the problem with Republican leadership is that they won't make deals with the Democrats," he said.
"We are seeing more and more the establishment calling out their support for Donald Trump," Cruz added.
"Look, Donald Trump was very candid. On the Sunday shows recently, seven months ago, he said he was the establishment. Well, that hasn't changed. There's a reason the establishment is attracted to Donald Trump."
Trump & Palin = game set and match.
What if it turns out that the GOPe is as incompetent as we know they are? What if they have screwed things up so much that they have more than one candidate to worry about?
Remember when Carson was a threat? That was three candidates polling higher than Bush and Bushio (or is that Rube and Rubio)?
Yeah Trump supports ethanol which is stupid, and Cruz is/was a big H1b supporter which is anathema, but
I'll be happy with either Cruz or Trump (or even Carson if he can rise from the political dead).
ABC = Anyone But Clinton
It didn’t “used” to be conservative in any shape, fashion or form to support unlimited free trade and imported cheap labor to the detriment of the citizens of this country.
That’s a stupid position that was forced upon us by the Bush wing of the party and the liberal Wall Street cabal that pays them off.
And that’s been the problem...communists on one side and a bizarre mash-up of libertarian economic & extreme social issue voters on the other.
Donald Trump is actually a conservative; it’s nice to finally see one again.
‘Movement, doctrinaire, conservative, populist’......All terms these jackanapes who wouldn’t know real America if it bit them on the ass concoct for things they don’t understand.
They sit behind their media keyboards, attend their party functions, ‘strategize’ and pontificate about who supports whatever candidate fits their tiny lexicons. Who the hell do they think they are? Supporters who support (Trump, Cruz, whoever) are old white men who hate Obama and have no ‘ideological underpinnings’ Uneducated, blue collar former Democrats, blah, blah, blah.
The truth is these icons of establishment don’t know sh!t and they fear for their jobs and their livelihoods and they will make up anything to keep the PAC money flowing to Jeb, or Rubio or whoever else they can pump up to keep in the money.
It also means it blows with the wind.
And the wind will blow. Particularly in DC.
Good luck with that.
Vote Trump
