Title: "Trump and His Fans Are Stuck Inside a Feedback Loop"

Is this true?

And does saying so mean that Donald Trump is "being treated unfairly?"

What is off limits, "unfair," in a primary?

Does reporting and posting on articles about Donald Trump and his politics (past and present) cross the acceptable line?

Did Donald Trump sign the Pledge as a ploy, with no expectations of abiding by it?

Trump: 'Many, Many People Think That I'm Not Being Treated Fairly' By The GOP

"...Trump repeated, "I have no opinion right now." However, "I can say that many, many people think that I'm not being treated fairly. ..".."But the mainstream media and you know the Republicans, I have no, I have no real feeling as to whether or not I'm being treated fairly. But I promise you,I will let you know at some point. I hope I'm being treated fairly because honestly Chuck, that was my deal. My deal, I signed a pledge. My deal was that I would be treated fairly and I hope that's going to be the case."

Feedback loop? Just listen to Rushs montage of lame stream reportage. Same exact words, over and over...

Gee, loyalty in the GOPee doesn’t run very deep!

http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/261227-gop-donors-wrestle-with-possibility-of-trump-nomination

A story that circulated after the lunch was that the donors engaged in a hypothetical question: “If it was Donald Trump running against Hillary Clinton, who would you vote for?”

One version has it that most of the Republicans at the table put their hands up for Clinton.

Schnabel disputes that account and said in a telephone interview Tuesday that it was just banter among friends and that he is confident that all the Republicans at the table would support the final GOP nominee for president, whomever that turns out to be.

Schnabel called back later on Tuesday afternoon to clarify what he meant. “My only caveat would be that ... I assume that the Republican we’ll nominate will be somebody that would make a great president,” he said. “That’s not a conversation we’ve had to have in the past, but obviously there are some we would be concerned about.”

The four Republican donors sitting at that lunch table — Schnabel, Freeman, Spogli and Riordan — have between them contributed more than $2.7 million to candidates and political action committees over their careers.

All have donated to former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush’s presidential campaign, and Freeman and Spogli have given $1 million and $50,000, respectively, to the pro-Bush super-PAC Right to Rise.

Writers at, “National Review”, and “Weekly Standard” remind me of the Siamese cats in the movie, “Lady and the Tramp”

From his bio it looks like Cooke is a charter member of the GOPe, so his drivel is expected.

This dweeb writer is fit to be tied over Mr. Donald Trump.

I actually do remember watching Moslems celebrate on TV from New Jersey and specifically from Paterson, New Jersey.

I also recall Moslems were shown or interviewed on TV from Michigan and "likely" from Dearborn, Michigan, where they are predominate.

I've previously posted links to articles that backed Mr. Trump's memory and mine, but didn't save. NOT going to search for same tonight.

The only feedback loop here is the media repeating the lie that there were no stories backing Trump up, despite the folks at Powerline finding a story in the WaPo in a few minutes of searching.

Considering how freaking insane you’ve gone after voters rejected Scott Walker, I wonder how bad you’ll be when Trump wins the nomination. I imagine you’ll be hating the world and posting threads on FR late at night about why the human race should be exterminated.

For me, it’s the uniparty media trying their gottcha game on Trump to sink him. They don’t play gottcha on Jeb or Hillary. There is plenty to nail these two in a gottcha spirit, but reporters won’t touch these preferred candidates until the general election and then they will only attack the Republican. They only do this to conservatives or people outside the uniparty establishment in the primary so that a uniparty candidate can win the Republican primary. He or She will be easier for Hillary to beat because the Republican will grovel - over and over again.

So, unless it is something extremely serious to me (like Trump has a criminal record or did something horrific and it is proven without a doubt), I don’t care and I don’t want Trump doing what conservatives often do - grovel and apologize constantly trying to appease these badgering uniparty freaks and losing the races.

Their two big gottcha numbers at the moment are: Trump made fun of a handicapped slimy reporter trying to deny a story about Muslim celebrating 911. I don’t like making fun of people’s handicaps but the jouro-list was lying and trying to smear Trump so he can...I won’t say it because I am trying to be more Christian when I write here.

The other sensational issue is the uniparty media claim that Trump did not see Muslims celebrating on 911 because it did not happen. Would the media lie, in the spirit of political correctness, to hide the fact that some Muslims were openly celebrating in Jersey on 911? Yes, they would do that. Would Trump lie about having seen coverage of this event? Why would he do that? Is it believable that Muslim celebrated in New Jersey like they did all over the world? Yes, Trump’s assertion makes sense and I think he probably saw what he said he saw.

The media’s “clean up” of politically incorrect stories are often cleansed after the fact. We have all seen this. Politically incorrect facts and whole stories and especially the in the history of live broadcasts always disappear. Journalism has progressed to be a totally dishonest profession. They are all unelected uniparty politicians now...on the far left. They are for Hillary so they want Jeb or Rubio to run against her.

The problem is that Trump is so far inside the RAT/Media/GOPe OODA Loop that they cannot nail him.

Go Trump!

My eyes are barely open and already we start with the Trump bashing.

This guy, Cooke is an imbecile. He hasn’t written a fair article on Trump from the beginning.

Here’s my take, there is practically nothing Trump can do to lose my vote. He’s not a stupid man. He would never run as a third party.

Being the negotiator he is, with the people he has, I can’t see the nomination being stolen from him. He is smarter than the Karl Roves out there, and the idiot RINOs having their 1000$ Martini lunches in Beverly Hills where they talk about supporting Hillary.

HERE IS SOMETHING FOR YOU TO THINK ABOUT AN ANSWER. AND THIS IS THE BOTTOM LINE FOR ME AS IT APPLIES TO THE TRUMP BASHERS ON THIS FORUM.

IF TRUMP WINS THE NOMINATIION, AND IT LOOKS LIKE HE WILL, WHAT WILL YOU DO?

1. Hold your nose and vote for Trump.
2. Campaign enthusiastically for him as you would for the republican nominee in general.
3. Not vote.
4. Vote for Hillary.

ENOUGH WITH THE DAILY MORNING TRUMP BASHING. ANSWER THE ABOVE QUESTION.

Dear Charles:

So you are proclaiming Trump supporters live in a parallel universe.

Which is more believable . . . Those who say they witnessed such an event or you proclaiming that it was not possible nor probable that Muslims in New Jersey was celebrating?

I have no idea if thousands of arabs in New York and New Jersey were celebrating after 9-11.

BUT, I saw news coverage of Palestinians dancing in the streets by the thousands after 9-11.
