Post Mini-Tuesday Election Night Debrief – “The Kitchen Sink Missed”…
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | 3/9/2016 | Sundance

Posted on 03/09/2016 5:49:15 AM PST by BlackFemaleArmyColonel

No single candidate has ever faced such intense vitriol as we have seen in the past week against Donald Trump. The entire DC based professional political apparatus has thrown everything, including the kitchen sink, at him. Trump’s still standing, because WE are still standing. Steadfast, at his six!

The GOPe attack, led by Mitt Romney, is running into the reality of the electorate. We are wise to their schemes and tricks. The Rebel Alliance is well positioned and controlling the geography.

Let’s take a look at last night, state by state:

Michigan – Three intensely wonderful results.

First, Donald Trump wins with around 37% of the vote in a state that is very in tune with the message of how important it is to destroy the TPP trade deal; and how Donald Trump is the definitive candidate to restructure the manufacturing base and save the middle-class blue collar base.

Second, Donald Trump wins the southern part of Michigan which borders Ohio. This is an important aspect to remember considering the head-to-head race next week between Donald Trump and Ohio Governor John Kasich. The Southern Michigan/Northern Ohio media markets share a base of consumer. Trump carried this electorate.

Mississippi – There is no more wonderful outcome than was evidenced in Mississippi. Today, as Mitch McConnell wakes up to read the newspaper, the wolverines in Mississippi have placed a big sign on his front lawn saying: “Was Thad Cochran Worth It”?

Hawaii – Donald Trump finishes off the night by winning Hawaii with around 45% of the vote, Cruz second (32%) and Rubio barely getting more than 10%.

Four state contests, Trump wins three of the four, and gets more delegates in the second place finish (Idaho) than if he had won. How’s that for a good night?

From article:

Mississippi also became the sixth state to deliver the 50% +1 (Rule 40) delegates which means Team Trump only need two more states to qualify at the convention under current rules for nomination. The GOPe will have a much harder time trying to change that rule, with a candidate, one candidate, who shows up having qualified under it.

“Trump’s still standing, because WE are still standing. Steadfast, at his six!”

As I listen to the “experts” on the news outlets, I’m completely aghast at their sheer arrogance. I’m also amazed that more of the voting public isn’t outraged. The media, all of them, speak as if the wave of Trump supporters is akin to an outbreak of some kind of disease for which they must find a cure, not the result of the American people being done with the Elite Political Class conducting themselves as a monarchy and we the subjects.

Even after decisive wins in three states by Trump last night, one “talking head” surmised that “the Republican Party will eventually make the right choice,” meaning, not Trump. How is it that these jerks don’t realize that the Party agrandizers are where they are because we put them there. It should be plain by now that Trump supporters make up a large segment of the “Party” but they talk about us as if we’re mentally challenged.

Donald Trump is the only candidate who is speaking to and for the average American.

“Populist” is defined as one who believes in the rights, wisdom and virtues of the common people. I’m sick and tired of the media and their shills using that word in regards to Donald Trump as if it’s a vulgarity.

Trump is likely to win in Ohio and Florida. That is an additional 165 delegates, and he would be about 265 delegates ahead of Canadian Cruz.

I can hear Guy Lombardo playing “ Canadian Sunset “

Nobody really knows Ohio. Our state’s parts are so disconnected. Trump’s winning on the OH border is as the author states a significant clue. Another thing to consider is all that early voting. Kasich wasn’t even close in polls when that began. That’s a whole lot of votes that can’t move from Trump to Kasich, even if Kasich surges.

It is amazing to hear so many resigned to a Trump nomination and then declaring that Hillary will win in a landslide. I believe Trump will trounce her.

This whole business reminds me of a Mickey Mouse cartoon I saw some time in the late 1950’s. Mickey’s dog, Goofy, was bothering a couple of very respectable skunks. The male skunk was doing his best, spraying Goofy with no effect. In desperation, he said to his wife, “Mildred, I’ve used two whole atomizers and he still won’t go away.” Just like Trump and the GOPe.

The simple fact is that Trump cannot do anything without the support of the people (well, besides putting up more buildings and making more money). Thus, the vitriol and the kitchen sink are not really aimed at him, they are aimed at US. WE are the true targets of the GOPe, which has had us safely chained up for quite some time. Now that we’ve begun to take off our shackles, they’re ticked off and afraid. They threw the kitchen sink at US, and we threw it right back at them!

“Today, as Mitch McConnell wakes up to read the newspaper, the wolverines in Mississippi have placed a big sign on his front lawn saying: “Was Thad Cochran Worth It”?”


That is delicious!
