Anyone who believes Donald Trump is "in it to win it" I think is seriously mistaken.

Having said that: Trump isn't my choice. Hard to take him seriously as a candidate. I do however appreciate the fact that he speaks truth to the issues that many Conservatives, and I'd argue blue-dog Democrats care deeply about, illegal immigration being one of them.

The whole illegal immigration issue strikes alot of chords with both Conservatives and blue-dog and heck, even some moderate Democrats who think their party has swung way too far to the left.

So I like the fact that Trump speaks plainly and bluntly on illegal immigration, our messed up economy, Obama's incompetence, etc.. and in doing so, is holding the Republican Party's feet to the fire.

At the end of the day, Trump speaks alot of truth. The Republican Establishment / GOP-E snobs may not like how he says it, but he speaks truth nonetheless.

Still, he's not a serious candidate and somewhere along the way one can't help but think he's going to embarrass himself and that'll be the end of his campaign.

I like Donald Trump because he is in a great position to really stick it to the GOPe and its multitude of clown car candidates.

“1 – Full implementation of ObamaCare without repeal.
2 – Comprehensive Immigration Reform to include Amnesty.
3 – Full implementation of Common Core educational standards.”

JebBer Bush is for all three and so is Hillary for all three.

Trump is against all three.

I’m warming up to voting for Trump even though I don’t really trust him at all. He’s no Conservative, but if it comes down to Jeb or Trump, I rather Trump

Bears repeating from the article:

"Trump is the only visible method to defeat the GOP/CoC/Professional political class scheme."

" He, not him as a person, but rather Trump as a strategy – is the only strategic possibility that can upset the entire construct of years of careful Machiavellian planning."

" That’s why I support Donald Trump."

"I support him as a strategy to defeat the GOP and Democrat Party Machines."

So, we live in a post-Constitutional Republic ruled by soft tyranny. The uniparty, a tyrannical president and judicial activism rule. The next election is all scripted. Hillary or Jeb. They don't care which one.

Hard to argue with the author of the article. Well done sundance.

This is an excellent, must read article. I’ve sent it to friends. Very well worth the read.

From the article:

In 2013 CoC President Tom Donohue went on record saying his 2014/2015 legislative priorities were:

1 – Full implementation of ObamaCare without repeal.
2 – Comprehensive Immigration Reform to include Amnesty.
3 – Full implementation of Common Core educational standards.

Wall Street, through K-Street, through the CoC, fund these legislative priorities.


And the US CoC basically owns Romney, Bush and the GOP establishment lock, stock and barrel.

So what is Donald going to do rather than draw attention to the problem ans run static for the guys that get through?

I like that he is jumping on the grenade.

But does he have a snowballs chance?

Keep running static Donald.

A Trump administration would be the most entertaining thing in the world. If we all survive it.

Bottom line. Trump would shellac Hillary in the General.

There’s a lot of education and a lot to agree with in this article.

Trump brings the right message but he is the wrong messenger.

Great poast. ( I caught the misspell, but I like it, so it stays.) It’s very complicated, but it all sounds reasonable. My choice is still Cruz, but I am very glad Trump is a participant, and the reason is described in this article-
http://allnewspipeline.com/Now_More_Than_Ever_Come_Together.php

Basically, it describes Trump as his own man, beholden to no one, and I think that he might be the only candidate that fits that description. That position, plus everything that he is saying, does command my attention. I will continue to support Cruz, and watch Trump.
