...

"We have to come to our senses collectively," Bozell, president of the Media Research Center, told Fox News' Martha MacCallum on the "America's Newsroom" program. "There is fury, absolute fury against Washington for years of betrayal, especially from the Republican establishment. I share in that. I don't think there is anybody that has been more furious than I have been, but you just can't tap into that and into that vein and pretend that you are going to do something about it when in fact you have a record, a real record of being the opposite on everything."

Surely he meant to say Obama?

Because Trump is just a patriot who loves his country.

And exactly which candidate for political office is not a ‘Self-Promoter’ and ‘Huckster’?

Can’t wait to see the polls come out, and the reams of paper printed to explain that the polls don’t yet reflect the opinion of the opinion makers, and the caucuses will reflect reality. Then it’ll be that the caucuses were flawed, and set aside New Hampshire, once South Carolinians rightly reject this, everything will be fine.

Hope Cruz picks up one of the two of them.

Trump is a third party candidate running as a conservative republican.

Sounds like Bozell is jealous because, as a charlatan, huckster and establishment media type himself, Trump has higher name recognition and viewership.

Anyone knows where he was back when Trump was going after Jeb, the media, and Hillary?

Did he hate him back then too?

What this sh!tstorm does for me is to drive me away from the Pubbies in general. My Pubbie Congresscritter is a good conservative and he will get my vote, but the rest of that crowd? Not so much.

Dude, the more of this stuff you post, the more you’re turning people off. There are 10 or so of you folks who do this non-stop anti-Trump posting. You remind us of spastic cartoon characters.

Here’s a little truth for you: these stories are not going to turn Trump supporters against him.

Why is it you won’t post any pro-Cruz stories?

Your desperation is crystal clear.

The Trump phenomenon is not new. The movement is nothing more than a different version (American) of what happened in Germany in the 1930s. In the American version, the cause is just, the problems real, but the chosen solution, a delusion, and the “hero”, a fanciful graven image hewn out in the imagination of “The True Believers”.

What we are seeing with Trump is a nationalistic populist movement sucking in a lot of good patriotic people. People better figure Trump out pretty quick or we will be in more trouble than we are already in. Trump is no true conservative, but for a few slip-ups that betray him, he could get an Oscar for his performance. This is no more than 1930s and 2008 populism déjà vu in a completely different cloak. Trump is using the modus operandi described in Eric Hoffer’s 1951 book, “The True Believer” - Thoughts On The Nature Of Mass Movements. Trump has found a void and has created a cult following. He is taking legitimate issues and concerns and using them to generate a fanatical mass movement of “True Believers” — intoxicated Trumpaholics, and Tump is their cult leader. There is no way to talk to many of them; their minds have been snatched. Many will not realize the fantasy until it all falls down. History repeats. It is déjà vu all over again.

Not mine. Another GOPe shill who has exposed himself. This is good. The light’s going on and the roaches are scurrying.
