How the GOP stupidly enabled a Donald Trump 'comeback'
The Week ^ | March 9, 2016 | Damon Linker

Remember when Donald Trump was losing?

If you blinked, you might have missed it.

It started during last Thursday's debate, continued through the muddled results of Saturday's caucuses and primaries, and lasted until, oh, around the time that news outlets began calling Mississippi for Trump a few minutes after the polls closed in the state on Tuesday night.

This is the latest thing for the MSM to whine about.

They thought Romney's speech, the debate attacks and the millions of dollars in attack ads would destroy Trump's candidacy.

Now they are all upset that Trump is still winning. The article is a big whine about how the GOP establishment failed to bring down Trump.

Oh, and the voters should have no say in this whatsoever according to the MSM. The GOPe should decide everything.

What kind of world do we live in where a political party enabling a “comeback” of it’s front-runner is considered “stupid”????

"GOP stupidly enabled a Donald Trump 'comeback' "

The answer is "yes", and the question remaining is "Just how well do politicians understand our enemies around the world if they can't understand the American public or Donald Trump?"

The people are sick to death of the unconstitutional oligarchy that the ruling class has set up. Trump is the result.

The reality, he was never losing.

That was a big lie and a talking point on tv, radio, and on sites like FR.

Then Romney gave Trump a big push with his treason against Trump and we, his voters/supporters.

Trump against the evil world of open borders thugs!

How sick of it are real people? Sanders and Trump both won their primaries in Michigan. The elitists can't pretend that one party got their ballot boxes stuffed by the other party.

There's only one conclusion. They know that only their clique is worthy of governing. How has that worked throughout history?

Dear Globalist Elite,

You will be charged with treason against US citizens. Arrested. Jailed for life. And all the assets you stole from US citizens will be given back to US citizens.

PA, OH, FL, IL, MO and NC ought to be interesting. Think Cruz has a chance of winning any of these states next week? This is where the delegate count starts increasing.

Then we have AZ. Don’t they recognize an immigration issue there? I believe Jan Brewer is supporting Trump there too.

No idea what happens with Marianas, Guam, VI and Samoa. Rough split of 36 delegates? I’ll probably have to give you most of DC’s 19.

It looks good from my perspective over the next couple weeks with ~900 delegates. Your end not so...
