When Donald Trump first burst on the political scene two months ago as a presidential candidate, many of the analysts, commentators and pollsters who populate cable news programs, the so called “experts,” claimed it was all a publicity stunt. Then, they said he would never release his financial statements. Then, they said his controversial comments about Mexican illegal immigration, Senator John McCain and Fox News Host Megyn Kelly would doom his campaign. Now, they are saying his lead cannot continue for his support has a “ceiling” and his campaign is a flash in the pan. Unfortunately for the “experts,” they are completely wrong on every one of these issues. Trump is solidifying his lead and is not going away, even though the liberal media and the Republican establishment wishes that he would disappear. Trump is upsetting their plan for the GOP to nominate another moderate candidate, such as former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, and, once again, lose to the Democrats.
-snip-
a succession of Fox News analysts such as columnist George Will, commentator Charles Krauthammer and consultant Karl Rove have lampooned Trump as either a clown or someone who is too bombastic to be taken seriously. They believe that his tactics and message are actually harmful to the Republican Party and that other candidates are more electable. Once again, it seems the so-called “experts” are wrong and, in fact, the real clowns are the commentators who have been on television too long and live in the Washington D.C. bubble. They are also not objective for George Will’s wife works as a consultant for Governor Walker and Rove, who has a long history of working for the Bush family, is obviously for Jeb Bush.

I think the “experts” are worried that Trump is going to begin amassing support among fed-up Democrats, and I’m sure there are plenty of them.
I thought Will’s wife worked for Walker!
There were folks right here chiming in with the experts. So much for these experts.☺
I agree. I blame Jeb for allowing the state of Florida to murder Terri by brutally dehydrating and starving her to death. It was in his authority to take her into protective custody. This was according to St. Thomas More Law Center. The law they used as an excuse to kill her, was passed during his admin, which he signed.
Terri was not brain dead. Florida had no right to kill a brain damaged woman, and especially in such a brutal way. At one time she could eat without the feeding tube. They put that in just to make it more convenient for the nurses, Her husband then told the facility not to allow her family to feed her.
Florida is more humane to murderers than they were to Terri.
Can you imagine how you would feel if the vet told you he was going to stave and dehydrate your pet until it died. Then think of Terri’s parents and siblings watching this spectacle day after day.
Yes, Jeb Bush has to be held accountable for Terri’s horrific death. If Terri isn’t brought up now and he wins the Republican nominee, the Dems would make sure to bring this up. I know I will never vote for him.

“George Will’s wife works as a consultant for Governor Walker and Rove, who has a long history of working for the Bush family, is obviously for Jeb Bush.”
The stepford wives and their stepford husbands. Aren’t they clever?
Trump is not an “independent” like Perot. Never has been so much vitriol launched from both sides against a candidate from one of the major political parties…with nobody from either party (running or not) calling out his politician attackers or their political propagandists.
Who is Don Galt?
You could not possibly be more wrong bbob. No election in modern history has seen this kind of history in the making. Reagan came the closest. And that was many decades ago. Just sayin...☺
I think you’re right.
Wasn’t Prescott Bush the treasurer of Planned Parenthood?
The Cheap Labor Express will spare no expense to stop Trump.
They have their minions in The Ministry Of Propaganda producing as much against him as they can to no avail.
Whole flood of propaganda stories are being released right now.
These clowns would slam Reagan today. In fact, Reagan couldn’t win the nomination today.
Trump may be promising a lot of things he can’t do. But he will try. I’d rather have someone like that and a damned lying politician who will say whatever his pollster says he should say with no intention of doing anything.
The gopE has been lying to it’s base for decades. It’s time the base when somewhere else and let the party die.
The photo captioned ‘White Power at the Trump Rally’ appears to feature a black woman standing directly behind DT.
There is one thing that should convince everyone to vote for Trump. Both George Will (FOX) and Chris Mathews (MSNBC) hate him.
I looked at those photos and read the responses. If that’s a hit piece, it’s a dismal failure. I see an audience that wasn’t pre-screened, it’s a lot of average US citizens finally having someone to believe in.
Another example that Walker is on the Rove RINO team.
What was Santorum’s “Santorum moment”?
