There may indeed be a feeling of disappointment amid many political followers who support Donald Trump today. A sense of disappointment because he did not win the Iowa caucuses.
However, long-time readers here will probably not hold as much angst at the result; and just about all of us are overly familiar with the sense of futility against it all.
These 2016 events are predictable, very predictable. They are so predictable we outlined exactly how they would take place back in 2013, more than two years ago.
Before reading further – GO HERE AND SEE – These events are not organic, they are born from a very specific origin. We stated in November of 2013 that Senator Marco Rubio would be propped up by the political machine in the 2016 Presidential race, for a very specific purpose.
There are trillions of dollars at stake. The characters who indulge themselves within the scheme and graft will do anything to retain their place, power and influence. None of this is happenstance.
The only way to have avoided the events of this election cycle, was lost in May of 2014 when no-one would pay attention to what was happening. Even the allies of today, Ann Coulter, was on the wrong side of history when things could actually have made a significant difference. – SEE HERE
The frustration in 2014 was one of the primary reasons we focused on non-political discussion for almost two years. Presidential politics is just not enjoyable when you can see the end-game, and have no option but to just watch the pantomime play out.
It was only the introduction of Donald Trump, as a non-DC connected candidate, that provided a modicum of possibility for the entire political apparatus to be destroyed.
Supporting Trump is easy, there’s simply nothing to lose.
So who benefited from the events last night in Iowa.
The BIGGEST WINNER is Wall Street. On the GOPe side, the institutional monetary influences, those who determine political outcomes, won with both Cruz and Rubio. Both candidates fill a specific role in the original GOPe road map. Keeping both candidates viable to destroy the real enemy, Donald Trump, is paramount if the globalists are to retain their influence over DC legislation to their own benefit.
The second tier talking head corporate media types, Mark Levin, Rush Limbaugh, and to a lesser extent Glenn Beck, now have a victory to tout as evidence the anointed king and apostle Ted Cruz can mount a glorious evangelical challenge to the Clinton machine.
The loons on the far right, who actually believe the larger U.S. electorate will vote for a smarmy preacher who wraps himself in carefully interpreted pages of the constitution and calls upon the body of Christ to rise up within his followers, well, they’ll now believe it is also possible. Remember, Jim Jones didn’t put the syringes in the baby’s mouths, their own moms actually did it.
The billionaires will keep feeding both, because the end result is a controlled outcome. And, obviously, they control the outcome. Cigars for all…
The SECOND BIGGEST WINNER is Fox News. Their entire corporate media empire is working earnestly to push Marco “Gang-Of-Eight” Rubio to the forefront, and yet again undermine the basic principles of the U.S. middle class. There is no level of effort too extreme for the puppets within the Fox Media corporate agenda.
The lesser puppeteers within the corporate media now have a narrative to push moving forward. Marco Rubio positioned by Salem Media (Hot Air, Human Events, Twitchy, Red State et al) to be the “conservative who can unite the party“, or so they’ll sell.
Then there’s the blog-o-sphere fools who are so wrapped up in: A) selling a convincing narrative to convince everyone else of their intellectual magnanimity; and, B) getting to join the gleeful U.S. Chamber of Commerce elbow rubbing at CPAC.
A collective herd that has become too blind to notice their candidate has never been fully vetted. Or that Hillary Clinton Inc. is joyfully smiling at the possibility of turning James Carvelle loose on the background of Marco Rubio writ large.
The BIGGEST LOSER last night was not Donald Trump, it was middle America. The hard working blue and white collar Americans who are smart enough to know the cattle cars are not pointed toward the sea-shore….
….. Remember, remove Donald Trump and Ben Carson becomes Herman Cain, Ted Cruz becomes Newt Gingrich, and Jeb/Rubio take the role of Mitt Romney in 2012….
…. and then everyone in DC is happy, happy again.

Ah, sundance... spinning like a top.
Amnesty will destroy the Republic.
We will never win another national election.
Many states will go the way of California - lost forever.
Rubio will kill the Republican party. This was a big win for the GOPe.
Hoping Cruz and Trump will make a truce and go after Rubio as he’s obviously the establishment pick now.
I can’t believe after how hard Ted Cruz fought in Washington to advance conservative principles, and got the whole GOP establishment against him for all his troubles, and the way he took on Big Ethanol in Iowa (unlike Trump and Democrats) and got his troubles got the GOP governor to attack him more passionately than he would attack any Democrat, and he won, and for all his troubles he gets lumped in with the other corrupt politicians in Washington! If you prefer Trump, great. If Trump is the nominee I would be thrilled to vote for him too. But this is no excuse to bad mouth Cruz!
“Ah, sundance... spinning like a top.”
LOL, broken record keeps on spinning.
Thanks so much for posting this. I still can’t get my head around the reasons why more people can’t see what’s happening here. I love your sheep picture. I guess, when you get right down to it, that says it all and answers the “why” question.
and then everyone in DC is happy, happy again.
Wish the world could see this statement. It sums up our situation brilliantly.
To be fair I have seen the anger come from the Cruz side towards the Trump backers. The Trump supporters seem to be having a blast but are not anti-Cruz per say.
Biggest winners: Cruz, the Constitution, and the American people.
Biggest losers: Trump and, it pains me to say, Sarah Palin.
Cruz’ classy statement when he learned of Palin’s endorsement of Trump keeps open the opportunity for Palin to endorse Cruz down the road.
I’m tired of these democrat lies, John Quincy Adams did NOT let the Tsar rape an American girl or open a casino in the White House.
Your comment is total bullshit. You were amongst the worse offenders in attacking Cruz and his supports with vile hate and outrageous lies.
-----
So you say. I don't get why the Cruz people seem all angry and joyless.
He did run an effective campaign in Iowa. Households were flooded with his slick mailed flyers and misleading TV ads.
“So you say. I don’t get why the Cruz people seem all angry and joyless. “
They needed it in order to get their “big” one delegate win.
Pretty much from there it’s going to be the Trump and Rubio show at least until Super Tuesday.
I’m not angry; I am thrilled. On top of that, my life is joyful because my Savior is Jesus Christ and God is in control of all things.
91% of the Iowa Caucus vote went to people who had never held elected office before 2010 — mostly the tea party candidate. The establishment candidates, those who have been in politics forever, got 9% of the vote.
Unfortunately, a lot of conservatives will look for the loss in this huge victory — the number one sign of that being how we saddle Marco Rubio, 2010 tea party darling, with the label “establishment candidate”.
Of course, people change. But the fact that Donald Trump can somehow wear the label “conservative” is really all I think we need to know about the reasoning behind labeling the other candidates as corporatists or GOPe.
The funniest thing is, the GOP establishment started backing Trump to stop Cruz. Trump is really a much better fit for the establishment - he enriched their pockets for decades after all, as he bought off politicians (although to be fair, a lot of his money went to liberals, not the GOP).
Biggest Winners last night:
GOP-e
MSM
The GOP-e proved last night that they can still fool the electorate with an establishment guy pretending to be an outsider. Cruz, connect to Goldman Sachs, New York Gays, Harvard Law, amnesty, TPP proved that the GOPe can still fool us. They got exactly what they wanted last night. They could not have hoped for a better outcome.
MSM They are the biggest winners, they can still claim to be “king makers” and that Trump, he lost because he refused to go to their stooge debate. They still rule over us, tell us who to vote for and still have power over us. Nothing changed last night.
A Trump victory would have been a middle finger to both the GOP-e and the MSM. Instead we just proved how needed they both are. I guess the slaves still will vote for their masters
You may be right-—however, I believe our nation is eventually lost to prophecy-—God foretold all of the events, evil and good, that will take place before He destroys this evil world and gives us a new one-—we cannot change the plan of God and the sheep are just a part of it-—God Bless
I agree with your analysis. We were told the people of Iowa would give up voting for the best evangelical this year, in view of the critical nature of this election. In past years they have selected Santorum and Huckabee and we know what happened to their candidacies. We would see the evangelical vote split and most would vote for leadership (Trump) this time. Well they did not.
The people of Iowa have spoken, and once again they voted in a strong evangelical leader (Cruz), they have once again picked the leader that will not go forward from here to win the national nomination.
I do not begrudge the people of Iowa their opinion, this is how they feel and I also concur that Trump is not the conservative that Cruz is. However, the national election is going to need the more moderate position of Trump to take the general election. There is a place for Cruz, and it is not at the head of the ticket.
Trump, OTOH is conservative in his positions. More than enough to turn the country around. When he says he will not let the evangelicals down, he means it. And when he says he will make what is good for the middle class his decision criteria, he means it. And when it comes to implementing his plans, you have his leadership example which is clear.
Here’s one loser — THE POLLSTERS.
Just look at the polls one day before the Iowa caucus:
