The "Establishment" Vs. Trump And The People

Just weeks before the Iowa caucuses Donald Trump was subjected to a barrage of criticism from Republican commentators. New York Times house conservative David Brooks, who has threatened to move to Canada if Trump becomes president, called Trump a “solipsistic branding genius whose ‘policies’ have no contact with Planet Earth.” The National Review devoted a whole issue to parsing Trump’s manifold flaws and dangers to the Republican Party and the country: “Trump is a philosophically unmoored political opportunist who would trash the broad conservative ideological consensus within the GOP in favor of a free-floating populism with strong-man overtones.”

Trump is proving that the power is with the people! Not the media and not the politicians. It is with us!

The bastard rinos are going down with their ship and don’t, can’t or refuse to see the reason for their ship sinking is they were the ones who ran it into the ground. No one is coming to their rescue as “We The People” are taking a different ship set on a new course with Trump at the helm.

The American people want protection from the third world invasion coming across the Southern border.

That is what the are crying out for and they are willing to let Trump have the presidency because THEY DO NOT TRUST ANYONE ELSE. It is the defining issue of our time.

You either agree with that or you are politically blind.

Trump LOVES the establishment. He’s paid millions into the establishment.

He cares only about self-promotion. Not you. Has he ever talked about the people? No, he talks about himself.

This week he came out cheering on federal control of land.

This week he said this:

“If I weren’t running for office I would be able to deal with her or anybody,” said Trump of Pelosi. “I think I could get along very well with Nancy Pelosi and just about everybody. I think I’ll get along well with Chuck Schumer. I was close to Schumer in many ways.”

Three years ago he said Mitt Romney was too harsh on immigrants.

I don’t believe for a second he’ll stick to the border issue.
