Trump: ‘I Want To Thank The Special Interests and The Lobbyists’ For Driving My Numbers
Breitbart ^ | 3/9/2016 | Ian Hatchant

Posted on 03/09/2016 5:47:02 AM PST by DeathBeforeDishonor1

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump sarcastically thanked “the special interests and the lobbyists” for driving his numbers up at a press conference in Jupiter, FL on Tuesday.

Trump began by saying, “One of the things I’m most happy about is that the turnout has been just massive, for every week. … No matter where you go, it’s records. I think it’s actually the single biggest story in politics today. It’s what’s happening at the booth. The tremendous number of people that are coming out to vote. Some of the states are getting — in fact, one has 102% increase over four years ago. It’s amazing. 102%. On average, you’re talking about probably more than 50. You’re talking about millions and millions of people, whereas the Democrats are down 30, 35%. they’re down from what they were. We’re up by 50%, and even more than that. You’re talking about millions of people. So, I actually think it’s the biggest story in politics today. And I hope that the republicans will embrace it. We have — don’t forget, we have Democrats coming over, very importantly. We have independents coming over, and they haven’t done that ever, probably ever. And with all of these people coming over, we’re going to have something very, very special. If I win, and if I get to go against Hillary, polls are showing that I beat her. And some of the polls have me beating her easily, because when you take advantage, we will take many, many people away from the Democrats.”

Special interests and lobbyists do for Trump like 0bama does for gun sales.

We can only hope that Team Willard does as well for for Kasich in Ohio as they did for Rubio in Michigan

And that Trump campaigns in every Ohio town that has empty shuttered factories and businesses

Special shout out to freakazoid Miley Cyrus for promising to leave the country if Trump wins...

I bet that gained him about 100,000 votes

He means Democrats who think he can be more easily beaten by Hillary.

The People are rising up and embracing a Nationalistic Populist! That is what we need.

The terms CONSERVATIVE and LIBERAL no longer have meaning. These terms have been used to manipulate the public.

America First!

The state of Michigan looks like a mitten. A fine tribute to the irrelevant unsuccessful 2012 candidate.

Rick Perry with his dark framed glasses looking very intellectual tries to convince us that Ted Cruz is the only person who can take on the Washington establishment.

Didn’t he have the dubious distinction of being the biggest and first loser of all the candidates? Why would anyone respect his decision?

Go Trump 2016.

Yes, several more could be added.

Fighting Trump more than they've ever fought zero.

Cowards.

There is so much truth to that picture of yours. Trump doesn’t necessarily need to investigate them or put them in jail upon arriving in DC, but the first thing he needs to do is find out what Obama has on them and then he can be the one to use it to get his way instead of Democrats. Add John Roberts to the list. I think we know what they have on Linda.
