The pledge of support from Mr. Sessions, a popular figure among Alabama Republicans, gives Mr. Trump another boost in the state, one of 11 voting this Tuesday, when 595 delegates are at stake...
Mr. Trump appeared to relish the backing of Mr. Sessions, who strongly opposed the failed immigration-reform measure that Florida Sen. Marco Rubio helped craft in 2013...
“We want strong borders!” Mr. Trump yelled to the crowd. “We want the wall!”

They promised us secure borders. Have they delivered?
Mitch is not happy. lol
Trump is sending a message to bung julio rubio: he just unleashed two endorsements from some of rubio’s greatest foes, namely, Christie and Sessions.
Mitch is on suicide watch
good point...
I ran across an article the other day where McConnell said something to the effect of that the Senators are going to stop Trump
Not not quite sure what he meant
Can’t look for it now as I’m posting from a phone
The GOPe elites publically:”What ever your do oh angry Repubican voters...don’t go and vote for that no account Trump!”
The Gope elites privately:”snicker, chuckle, oh bwahahaha, we sure play those conservatives like harps from hell!”
Trump...the “Bre’r Rabbit candidate!
Perhaps they’ll stab Trump when he goes to make his first State of the Union speech! “Et Tu McConnell?”
A prominent US senator just threw his support to Donald Trump

The Trump campaign emailed reporters the following statement hailing Sessions’ endorsement:
Today Donald J. Trump received the endorsement of Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions. Senator Sessions is widely recognized as the nation’s most highly respected official on the issue of illegal immigration.
Mr. Trump stated, “I am deeply honored to have the endorsement of Senator Jeff Sessions, leader of congressional conservatives. He has been called the Senate’s indispensable man and the gold standard. He led the fight against the Gang of Eight, against Obama’s trade deal, against Obama’s judges, and for American sovereignty. He has stood up to special interests as few have. There is no more respected man in Congress and we are closely aligned on many issues, including trade and illegal immigration, and I am proud to consider Jeff Sessions an advisor, friend and ally.”
Mr. Trump and Senator Sessions surprised the massive crowd at the frontrunner’s Alabama rally just days before Super Tuesday Primary contest.
Senator Sessions added, “I am thrilled today to offer my endorsement of Donald J. Trump for President. This election is our last chance to save U.S. sovereignty and to end the domination of the political establishment over the interests of working Americans. Trump alone has rejected the donor class, defending America’s jobs and wages from open borders, uncontrolled immigration and the massive Trans-Pacific Partnership that will cede U.S. authority to foreign powers. Trump’s trade and immigration plans will revitalize our shrinking middle class, keeping jobs and wealth and income inside the United States of America. Trump understands that a nation must always place the interests of its own people first.”
Senator Sessions continued, “We are nearing fast the point of no return. The people are hurting. Their wages are declining. Their schools are overburdened. Their hospitals are stretched past the breaking point. Crime is up, and community confidence is down. Americans of all backgrounds and ethnicities, immigrant and US-born, are crying out for leadership that puts their needs first, that takes care of those living and dreaming here today, leadership that understands that there is no constituency other than the American constituency. Mr. Trump is that leader.
We are witnessing an incredible movement, arising from the people.
The events of history have aligned to give the people this fleeting chance to bust up the oligarchy – to take back control from the ‘Masters of the Universe’ return it to the good and decent and patriotic citizens of the United States.”

I didn’t think of that but it wouldn’t surprise me after what we’ve seen. The GOPe has become so ossified and entrenched in their ‘protected’ class cloister that they failed utterly to see this coming. With each attack, change of horses, etc. they have pulled, they are only making their opponent stronger and the people (me included) are downright horrified at the viciousness and the underhandedness of their attacks.
I am a Ben Carson supporter who is outraged. More so than even in 2009 when GOPe types like Arlen Specter were telling constituents in the their Townhalls to sit down and shut up. But when the National Review came out with their pre-emptive attack on a Republican candidate, I just flat out saw red. I can only equate this awakening to being unplugged from the Matrix, somehow believing that all this time at least many were still on the people’s side. To see that PAC attacks, the lies, the lies, the lies over the last 8 years culminating in this primary season has finally hit the tipping point. I have always said I will support the candidate the people select and that is going to be Trump.
If those currently in charge would have reserved their energies for defeating Hillary; they may have been able to continue the charade (at least for me) But when I hear McConnell say they’d vote for Hillary of their own party’s candidate, I can see that in reality they have been doing this all along by going along with the steamroll agenda of 0bama.
Our enemy is not Trump, should he prevail in his effort to become POTUS, the REAL enemy is Hitlary Clinton. People had better get that figured out and quickly, there are only a few months left before “decision day”.
Trump 49% , Charlatan Cruz 15%
HA HA HA ! Go Trump!
In the following video Senator Jeff Sessions says that Trump will STOP TPP ! TPP is the worst thing ever for America and Cruz was instrumental in getting TPA TPP passed:
This is great video of Sessions endorsing Trump in a rally in Alabama!

TPP allows 3rd world countries to flood the USA with hundreds of millions of 3rd world immigrant workers to take away your job(Trade in “services”). There are almost 4 billion 3rd world people in China and India alone , they’re smarter than you and have tech skills . So vote for Cruz if you want to lose your job
Sweet Home Alabama!

I’m In Louisiana but I love Alabama !
TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership or Obamatrade is the worst thing ever for America).
True!
The press is virtually silent about this big endorsement!
The media isn’t paying attention to the top level endorsements Trump is getting.
They are focused, after he said he disavowed Duke, why he isn’t disavowing him? Can’t they listen and comprehend.
