The GOPe will think of something. they now realize that it’s not just a possibility that Trump will get the nomination ... it’s a dang probability.
They cannot understand or stand that.
If these elitist establishment types got out from their 5 star hotels with elitist cocktail parties and met real folks then they would understand the country, alas they would rather live in their elitist circles and thus will never understand this country.
I’m for Cruz also but I do not want to see Donald bullied out of this race.
The problem for the e’s is that they hate Cruz even more than they hate Trump.
He had a big battle in the Senate today, thwarted by McConnell and can’t remember who.
These people have this Pavlovian response to anything that just remotely sounds like it will offend someone. It’s operant conditioning. They will follow their “training” regardless of how irrational it is.
Pesky voters!

He is going to either win the GOP nomination, and go on to be President which is the only way the GOP can save itself. He could also become be Vice President. But I have no doubt in my mind that Trump will be a major part of the next administration. He might also be able to win running as a Third Party.
American politics are now experiencing a paradigm shift. The MSM is dying as more and more Americans realize they do not have their best interests at heart and are blatantly lying to advance liberal propaganda. Even uber liberals I’ve talked to are getting tired of all the K-Street whores in government(all of them, every single one). The only choice is Trump.
Either the leftists seize power through suspension of elections, or martial law, or Trump wins the nomination and cleans house.
I believe that as Trump backs our political system into a corner they will become more desperate. I expect that there will be at least one assassination attempt on Trumps life, or the MSM will see which way the wind is blowing and stop demonizing him. Point is, the more the MSM and other “republicans”(read democrats) denounce him the more independents and democrats will jump into Donald Trumps ship. He talks plainly and people now know that the GOP/DNC are the same exact thing. The MSM and uber liberals have not realized one simple thing: Americans are still Americans, and no matter what happens there will always be a significant amount of Americans that will sacrifice everything to keep America free, if push ever comes to shove.
I think Americans have had enough. Trump will have the black vote, the hispanic vote, and a majority of the white vote. It is going to be a landslide, probably not as big as Reagan’s, but I imagine for the 2016 elections a lot of blue states will be red.
I also believe with confidence enough to say that there will be at least one or more co-ordinated ISIS terror attacks on American soil in coming months. Which will further drive the wedge between DC and the average American. Giving Trump even more support. Hillary will not have a platform to stand on, because there will be more terror attacks.
Trump will either be President, or Vice President in 2017. I have no doubt about it. He has all the winning cards. The MSM and uniparty still haven’t realized the game has changed. As Trump is proven right and right again and again, you’ll start seeing people who denounced him recently to support him hoping against all hope they came aboard before it was too late.
Political correctness can only work while things are going good, the facade falls apart when Americans start dying in the streets. It’s exactly what you’re seeing happen. The age of PC/UBER LIBERALISM is ending. Not just in America either.
I hope and believe we are about to see the Western World led by those that will protect their citizens. The French are about to get it right for once. They are already shutting down mosques and arresting muslims. I think that the Germans are going to throw out Merkel and anyone who supported her. I think the brits are going to get themselves killed, I don’t think they have any hope to save their country from the muslim invasion.
Yeah, sure they do. Just like they ‘supported’ the Iraq & Afghanistan invasions...with all the strength of wet toothpicks!
Really mess with the minds of these poll people. If asked say; “As a democrat, I really hate to admit it, but he’s right.”
Bloomberg Poll? GOPe? Why would I believe these people?
Speaker Paul Ryan denounced Trump yesterday claiming his idea didn’t represent the Republican Party or the country.
“He knows how to handle Congress”
Congress has shown nothing but contempt and indifference to Cruz. Cruz is a lawyer, and a “beta male” ... Being such, he will get nowhere with the punks of Congress.
OTOH, Donald Trump is the kind of guy who would not think twice about kicking an opponent in the ball sack several times over until it kills him. Donald trump is the kind of man who will smack Congress in the head with a brick, if need be.
Trump is a street fighter, with street smarts, and the wherewithal to know what type of “political tool” to use for the job when it comes to dealing with establishment scumbags: a 2x4, a crow bar, or a tire iron - to be used as needed. The slobbering filth that infest our body politic needs a beat down - and Ted Cruz is not the man for the job.
Ted Cruz is a nice, religious, “genteel” preacher boy. The establishment would eat him for lunch - and has already done so. With all his posturing, all his high speechifying on the Constitution, what has Ted Cruz actually accomplished in the US Senate? The establishment laughs at him. They have no fear of him. He’s basically a legalistic wimp - and they all know it.
We need a leader - not another lawyer. We need a man who will kick ass ... Ted Cruz would not even swat a fly.
Thanks in large part to the top gun salesman in modern history -- Barack Hussein Obama.
O’Reilly is a modernist liberal “catholic” - IOW, he’s a wuss without a spine.
Excellent post.
I agree completely. Trump is the only one that can handle congress and neuter the media.
He is the ONLY one that can turn this mess around.
Chris Christie says people would not attack Trump supporters over this. They are upset and have reason to be on this. Just now on Hannity
Christie was OK. Fiorina comes on and is annoying.
. Hannity finishes with “Nice to see ya”. LOL
I know it. My gut tells me that when Americans - REAL Americans, not the PC feminized hollow nothings - walk into that voting booth, no matter what doubts and contemptuous lies the Washington establishment and media spin masters have put into their heads, they will suddenly have their “get real” moment ... When it comes time to actually pull that lever, to blacken that oval, True Americans will have two things, and ONLY two things, beating down the door of their conscience:
1.) The safety and security of my family and my country
2.) Whether I will be able to keep a roof over our heads
Every other issue will fade into the grayness.
Now, think long and hard about that proposition. Because, I know, from experience, that those two concerns always come to the forefront when you are in that little voting space, with nobody else but you and your own conscience.
Ted Cruz is not going to keep us safe, and he is not going to restore prosperity. He’s a lawyer - not a financial genius, who has fought mega battles in boardrooms or in the corner offices of City Hall ... Senator Cruz is a first term senator, with to much of a “play fair” mindset.
Nobody is going to be intimidated by Ted Cruz. That should be patently obvious by now. He’s too “nice,” too diplomatic - too much for “dialogue” - and, honestly, too “Christian,” to get his hands dirty. Can yo picture Cruz physically wrestling the establishment bastards down to the mat in a no-holds barred street fight? Oh, sure - he might “debate” them to death - but debating skills are not what is needed right now. This country has arterial bleeding. And “debating skills” are not something to be found in the tool kit of triage! We need a tourniquet, and perhaps an amputation - not a never ending nasal dialogue about first aid techniques!
Cruz speaks with a nasally preaching voice - and it grates on the ears. His preachy speeches fail to compel one to action. He does not come across as having the “survival instinct.”
Does anybody here believe that Cruz would actually drop a nuke on an enemy, let alone threaten such action, if need be? I don’t. His scruples would never allow him to do so. I can almost guarantee that Cruz would be more concerned of what the Christian Right would have to say about the “morality” of such an action.
I have no doubts in my mind, whatsoever, that Donald Trump would kick the living crap out of anyone that would dare to mess with America - on any subject, economic or security ...
I have no doubt, whatsoever, that Donald Trump’s oft impugned “ego” will compel him to do whatever it takes to keep his promises about “Making America Great Again” ... And I do not mean that in a xenophobic “nationalist” way; but rather in a restorative, “put us back on the right track” way. Cruz would be scouring for a biblical passage to justify every action; he would need to first consult with several pastors before making a move ... we no longer have the luxury for this sort of “over-scrupulous soul searching before taking any action type of mindset.” And I believe that is exactly what we will get if Ted Cruz were the nominee.
It comes down to the alpha vs beta male thing - and I see Cruz as a submissive puppy dog, compared to Trump’s “wolf pack” ... Have you ever read the book “The Call of the Wild”? The protagonist is a sled dog, Buck - a natural leader. That is how I view Donald Trump. I do not see that quality in Cruz. No matter his lofty speechifying on the Constitution, Senator Cruz is unable to dispel the gut sense I have that he is not the right man for the BIG CHAIR.
So will Paul Ryan now tell us this is who we are?
Trump will be even more popular when the next attack pops up in a week or two. That was a terror cell in California and other members are still out there.
We are being LIED to by Obama and his minions.
