Trump ‘Very Close to One of the Most Astonishing Political Victories in American History’
Breitbart ^ | February 13,2014 | Conrad Black

Posted on 02/13/2016 1:55:27 PM PST by Hojczyk

If his opponents in the Republican party want any chance of stopping him, they will have to coalesce around one of the alternatives right after South Carolina, and that candidate will be an underdog. Mr. Trump should win the nomination, and Mr. Clinton should limp to a listless and cliched victory at the head of her fatigued party.

Mr. Trump still faces a high but porous wall of anyone-but-Trump sentiment, slightly more numerous than the anyone-but-Clinton bloc. He should move soon to dissolve this antagonism by speaking more seriously and precisely, and in finished sentences, and showing that he is, in all but his presentational flamboyance, a moderate.

Shame on the New York Daily News for referring to his followers as the brain dead and on the Huffington Post for its scurrilous attack on him as a racist, sexist demagogue. He is none of that and his followers are too numerous and righteously angry at those who have failed the nation to be so disparaged, especially by such lowbrow outlets.

Now is Donald Trumps chance to defeat and humiliate that sentiment by behaving with exemplary dignity, modesty, and precision, as he has waxed the floor with the elders of the Republican party and stolen much of the old Roosevelt-Truman-Kennedy coalition among working and middle-class Democrats.

Cruzbots work as anti- disciples for their candidate. The more I see of you folk, the more I dislike Cruz.

The “Republican” Senate rush to confirm The Won’s psychotic replacement for Antonin Scalia will put more than a few more in the “Trump” column.

I’m not sure who you are referring to. I am a frequently posting Cruz supporter, rarely have bas things to say about Trump, and am willing to give him credit when due. We have to stick together as one-two to lock out the Establishment, and join forces after the nomination. The passing of Justice Scalia is a reminder that we cannot have a Dem or a lightweight this time around.

That would just about do it, to throw fence-sitters straight into the Trump camp. What good has it done to elect these guys? Do the job you were elected to do, Republicans.

In reality that is not true. I’ve seen Trump use the exact same gestures when talking about Anthony Weiner.

Tonight might be classic TV. The debate might end up like the move Scanners.

Heads exploding, Jerry Springer body guards.

The gloves come off.

I did not say who’s head would be exploding.
There are several there tonight that know it is time to go all in.

Trump is vulgar and obscene, I am shocked that so many conservatives support him....it’s just terrible!

To Trump supporters, those are his good points. Astonishing isn’t it.
