Bi-Polarizing: Trump attacks GOP - [at times from THE LEFT!]
American Thinker ^ | 7/28/2015 | C, Edmund Wright

Posted on 07/29/2015 7:19:35 AM PDT by Servant of the Cross

Without a doubt, Donald Trump has done the conservative base some tremendous favors recently. He instinctively understands the mood of the country on key issues and is tapping into the anger at all of Washington -- all Democrats, the Jurassic media, the Republican establishment politicians, consultants, lobbyists, and donors, and of course the conservative establishment media – as only Donald Trump can do. He is demonstrating that his instincts are superior to most politicians, and he certainly has all the right enemies at the moment.

As a direct result, his poll numbers are surging. There is correlation here.

This is very refreshing. Moreover, it's extremely important. This blunt tone and accompanying fearlessness are exactly what these times call for. It should be a teachable moment to all who are seeking the nomination, although it seems only Ted Cruz and Carly Fiorina - who are both predisposed to being blunt - are enjoying it.

The Republicans win elections when they are polarizing. They lose every time they run scared of being polarizing.

Trump’s doing his job. He’s keeping Hillary out of the news, the Dem meltdown, the economy and etc. Watch him quiet up when another white kills a black. He’s there to wound and bleed to death the GOP.

But Trump only matters because the establishment has already bled the Republicans.

What of the poll suggesting a majority of Republicans feel unrepresented ?

Broken clocks, and all that.

The fact is the American people have been polarized by the political powers that be because that is the road to riches for the politicians, lobbyists, and crony capitalists.

Trump threatens to bring the whole scheme down because anyone who profits on our nation being at war with itself is clearly a parasite.

Trump is not polarizing at all, that’s the point. More than most people, a developer like Donald Trump recognizes that a house divided is an unstable structure.

Heard a Trump speech recently in which he said that America would be so prosperous under a Trump presidency that we could "take care of everybody".

"Take care of everybody"? He is talking about an expansion of the welfare state. This idiot thinks he can buy good will from non-workers by paying them off.

How has this worked so far, Donnie? How are those millions of happy, contented welfare recipients doing? Oh, that's right. They are rioting in the streets, killing people and burning cities.

“He’s there to wound and bleed to death the GOP.”
In case you haven’t noticed the last 7 years the GOP have been doing a good job of that without Trump.

The people who call him polarizing are all in on this citizen of the world, globalist stuff, which by the way isn’t a new thing and which never works.

“Donald Trump is gifted. He is passionate. He has a finger on the pulse at the moment”

The only prescient sentence in the article but you forgot to add “and the only candidate other than Cruz with a ghost of a chance of winning the general election” Anybody else and you can start saying President (insert Democrat name).

No, take care of means everyone will have work and we will stop the profitability bleeding. Currently there is a permanent underclass which would have been intolerable for our founders.

The GOPe has lost me. They lie. They don’t represent me, and they don’t give a damn about the base. We gave them control. What have they done? Support and fund the bastard Obama. F-— McConnell. F-— Boehner.

Trump is refreshing. Kicking ass. I wish Cruz was where Trump is in the polls. But more than I want Cruz, I want to turn this country around. Tell me who on the right, other than Trump, is doing a better job of pissing off all the right people?

Many people seem to think that Trump is doing Hillary’s bidding. BS. If he really wanted Hillary, he wouldn’t be calling her a criminal every day. “GOPe. You’re fired.”

Totally believable, but not unexpected. DC is a giant money farm and corruption is its atmosphere. I don’t see Trump fixing that. I don’t see the fix coming from DC.

Worth the double post.

Exactly! Hence the title ... Bi-Polarizing

Trump is not 'simple'. And he is not consistently conservative. Or small government.

Can’t disagree, but we’re up against the invisible 3rd Party - government and its cronies. So, I’d rather have the guys driving 20 mph off the cliff, than the ones driving 90 mph and killing people.

It’s amazing how many Freepers don’t have the intellectual ability to understand the parody of the “Bi Polarizing” use in the header. Just amazing. It’s blind conservatives, not lo fo liberals, who convince me the country is over, done, kaput - at times.
