The GOP must stop Trump (more garbage from the globe)
The Boston Globe ^ | 4/10/2016

Posted on 04/10/2016 6:09:07 AM PDT by Beave Meister

DONALD J. TRUMP’S VISION for the future of our nation is as deeply disturbing as it is profoundly un-American.

It is easy to find historical antecedents. The rise of demagogic strongmen is an all too common phenomenon on our small planet. And what marks each of those dark episodes is a failure to fathom where a leader’s vision leads, to carry rhetoric to its logical conclusion. The satirical front page of this section attempts to do just that, to envision what America looks like with Trump in the White House.

It is an exercise in taking a man at his word. And his vision of America promises to be as appalling in real life as it is in black and white on the page. It is a vision that demands an active and engaged opposition. It requires an opposition as focused on denying Trump the White House as the candidate is flippant and reckless about securing it.

After Wisconsin, the odds have shrunk that Trump will arrive in Cleveland with the requisite 1,237 delegates needed to win the nomination outright. Yet if he’s denied that nomination for falling short of the required delegates, Trump has warned, “You’d have riots. I think you’d have riots.” Indeed, who knows what Trump’s fervent backers are capable of if emboldened by the defeat of their strongman at the hands of the hated party elite.

Geez, the Boston Globe is pulling out all the stops. They print a fake article about Donald Trump. How is this any different from all the other fake articles they print on a daily basis?

Obama neets most of the criteria for a “demagogic strongman.”

At last! A lamestream outlet is finally going to expose the obama regime, its tactics and its duplicity! /sarc (and a big Rosannadanna "never mind").

How about this?

The first time trump calls for whites to beat on blacks or Hispanics, uses racial slurs when referring to them, or calls for muslims to be beaten in the street, i’ll stop supporting him.

Since he has done NOTHING of the sort, I’ll be voting for him in NY.

“Indeed, who knows what Trump’s fervent backers are capable of if emboldened by the defeat of their strongman at the hands of the hated party elite.”

That’s an accurate statement, especially the “hated party elite” part.

Here’s their bottom line, to nobody’s surprise:
“The Republican Party’s standard deserves to be hoisted by an honorable and decent man, like Romney or Ryan, elected on the convention floor. It is better to lose with principle than to accept a dangerous deal from a demagogue.”

Beave Meister @1: "How is this any different from all the other fake articles they print on a daily basis?"

None at all! But now we will be subjected to other fifth-column leftist print- and network-media whores reporting about it as if it were real news, along with all of the other fake news they excrete.

2016 is shaping up to be a contest between a GOP candidate chosen by the grassroots despite the efforts of the party elites versus a Democrat candidate chosen by the party elites despite the efforts of the grassroots.

And don’t forget that anyone that supports Trump is an A-dub, hateful, racist, mysoginist(sp), homophobe, kkk lovin’, flyin’ purple people eater too. Or something and no form of derisive remarks will be nasty enough to condemn them. Right? Oh, and he kicks kittens and puppys too.

More hand wringing and pearl clutching from our globalist betters. It’s getting shrill out there. Guess they’ve seen the polls out of NY.

The Ministry Of Propaganda is really doing their best to dissuade us from electing anyone who would stop the Cheap Labor Express.
