Unfortunatly, Strump is very good at hiding his true leanings. Many here do not remember his embracing the Clinton while they held the white house. The trumpster is pulling a Perot. How soon we forget.
Do you recall why Perot bolted the republican party and ran on 3rd party ticket?
From NY Times:
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25— At a time when Ross Perot’s candidacy once again appeared to be transforming the Presidential contest, the Texas billionaire offered a new explanation today for his decision in July to abandon the campaign. He said he had withdrawn after hearing that President Bush’s campaign was scheming to smear his daughter with a computer-altered photograph and to disrupt her wedding.
Trump has the money to run on 3rd party in 2016. If the republicans keep attacking Trump who filed papers to run as a republican, then they can’t blame Trump to go 3rd party route. And if that happens, we will get Hillary as the first woman president in 2016, guaranteed.
"1992: In 3-way race Bill Clinton won with 43% of the Vote.
On Election Day, Perot finished in third place behind Clinton (the winner) and Bush. Perot received 19,743,821 votes, which accounted for 18.91% of the popular vote. He failed to win any states in the Electoral College because of the relatively even distribution of his support.."
1996: In a 3-way race Bill Clinton won with less than 50% of the vote.
Reform Party nominee Ross Perot won approximately 8% of the popular vote. His vote total was less than half of his performance in 1992......Bill Clinton won with 49.24% of the vote.
In 1988 [Perot] founded Perot Systems Corporation, Inc. in Plano, Texas. His son, Ross Perot, Jr., eventually succeeded him as CEO. In September 2009, Perot Systems was acquired by Dell for $3.9 billion.
I have no illusions about Trump. I personally don’t think he’ll stay in or that I’d vote for him in a primary.
But I do think he is saying some things that very badly need to be said and I encourage it. He is forcing the real RINOs to declare their colors very early in the game.
Maybe that’s true, but we are still left with a whole passel of candidates who for some odd reason think that an unchecked flood of illegal immigration is a winning campaign issue.
Are they stuck with exploding local education budgets and abysmal testing and gradation rates sinking our schools from the English as a second language bunch? Do they have to deal with the crime in their neighborhoods? Drugs? No, see all they see are the representatives of the best possible face on illegal immigration. I mean, it must be, what else could make sense? So sure, Trump is taking advantage of a severe disconnect, the question we should be asking is why the disconnect?
Trump is a troublemaker like Perot in war with the GOPe and their anointed candidate he was sent into to soften up for Hillary.
I support neither side in this fight. I only say Trump is entitled to his position and we should all say that to protect everybody’s First Amendment rights of free speech and religion from attack by the political and business elites as we can see with Gay Marriage and Confederate flags.
Let Trump and the Republican elite tear each other up in a nasty cockfight while Ted Cruz waits in the wings unscathed.
Every big business CEO is going to embrace whoever is in power at any given time. They have to work with those in office because of the scale of the businesses they run. It is the norm for people at that level of business to donate to both parties.
For that reason, I don’t put too much importance on Trumps friendliness to the Clintons. More important is what he says he wants to do to salvage this country and make it great again.
I still have doubts that Trump would be best at knowing how to get that done through the bureaucratic channels he would have to navigate, but if he would be willing to work for a Cruz administration as VP or in the Cabinet, he will be a tremendous asset.
I still am not convinced that Trump actually wants the job or the pay cut that comes with it. I personally do not care why Trump is doing this and I have no illusions that he is conservative but I thank the Lord that he is bringing up the immigration issue. The GOP-E and the democrats both wanted to keep this matter very quiet and push amnesty through. Now there is a discussion of it. I believe that most Americans are dead set against amnesty and supporting it will hurt candidates. That is a good thing in my view. I just hope that Trump stays in long enough to make everybody take a clear position on it.
