without Trump, the GOPe chosen one would probably be leading the polls (Bush). Trump upset the whole apple cart and also propelled Cruz. I’m just a dumbass blue collar redneck, but that’s how I’ve watched it play out. I am a Cruz supporter, but don’t think he would be as high in the polls without Trump

“Trump upset the whole apple cart and also propelled Cruz. I’m just a dumbass blue collar redneck, but that’s how I’ve watched it play out.”

You’re absolutely correct. That’s exactly what happened, and only a few weeks ago, actually. But boy do people have short memories.

People have already forgotten about The Trump Effect.

Trump set the national agenda with illegal immigration and other issues that the GOPe and their allies desperately wanted to avoid, and now they can’t. They were not prepared for this, and as a consequence they don’t have a clue what to do, hence their almost universal collapse into a pile of quivering jello flip-flopping like a bag of Mexican jumping beans dumped on a hot griddle.

Trump has exposed those who pretend to be conservative but are really just fronts for big money establishment campaign donors who purchase their candidates with campaign “donations”.

Trump, by actually being a real man, has exposed the other candidates (Cruz excepting of course) and their allies for the weak little sniveling sellouts that they really are.

Trump’s vociferous truth-telling and fearless neutering of the kommie media has been the catalyst that triggered a massive revolt amongst conservative voters who are infuriated at the GOPe Congress doing absolutely ZERO to stop Obama’s agenda, and suddenly the GOP RINO leadership is in full blown panic mode and in full blown retreat, and the SMALL conservative House contingent smelt blood in the water, took heart, and charged in against a weakened, frightened and paralyzed GOPe leadership.

Trump is absolutely correct when he says that without Trump in the race, everything would be same-ol’, same-ol. The Joyful Tippy-Toes Turtle would be creeping closer to the finish line, Boehner would still be safely ensconced as Speaker, and there would be no mention of illegal immigration are any of the issues surrounding it by any politician in either party, other than possibly how critical it would be to pass immigration “reform”.

The media are loath to make the connection, but it’s obvious that the Boehner resignation was yet another falling domino falling due to the Trump Effect, as Trump’s unabashed truth-telling and fearless neutering of the kommie media triggered a revolt amongst the great unwashed GOP masses which emboldened a few conservative Congress critters to grow a few pairs.

And we wouldn’t even be having ANY of these conversations about illegal immigration and the myriad of other Obammunist issues destroying our country if it wasn’t for Trump. Instead, we’d simply be debating which RINO, GOPe squish would be least likely to be stomped by Hillary and the GOPe would once again be exhorting the “base” about how critical it would be for us to once again vote for the “lesser of two evils”, that is, vote for the GOPe side of the Uniparty coin.

And do note that ALL of the oligarchs are frightened to death of Donald Trump because the billionaires and millionaires can’t buy him like all of the other politicians they routinely purcahse because Trump doesn’t need nor want their money, and the kommie media is frightened to death of him because he isn’t afraid of them either, the bottom line being that Donald Trump can not be controlled by the rich and powerful or the corrupt media, so for anyone who is truly for campaign finance reform and wants to take money out of politics, voting for Trump is the only reasonable choice.

President Trump is really the last hope for this country: if he can’t undo any of the damage wrought by the Obammunists, the U.S.A. is done.

The above, and much more, is called “The Trump Effect”.

You’re right and we wouldn’t be anywhere near talking about the issues we are. Trump totally changed this election cycle (I think for the better). Cruz wouldn’t be anywhere the top, not because he’s not a good candidate and his positives true, but he’s only where he is because Trump has so dominated the media and pummeled the establishment candidates, it’s given Cruz the opportunity to be seen and heard more.
