"Trump did a bad bad thing" ...
Go Trump
Schlichter is always fun to read. Not a bad article. Can’t figure out if his intent is “damning with faint praise”, or something else.
It’s easy to make the conservative case against Donald Trump - he’s a Hillary-donating human troll doll who displays the interpersonal skills of Damien from “The Omen” while practicing the same deep, abiding commitment to conservative ideology as Charlie Sheen does to sobriety.
Weak. And so lame. I don’t feel this way at all.
I support Trump because he is fresh and new and I trust him.
Some nice zingers in there
So he gets elected, and he expands government and we are suppose to cheer.
Money Line:
“Most of Trump’s supporters are good people, patriotic Americans burned by an elite that sees their misery as collateral damage in a coastal, urban-led struggle for feel-good progressive change and personal enrichment”
That describes Washington very concisely. Hell, it pretty much describes most of the state capitals.
I started reading, and thought it was another set-up to trash Donald Trump. But I was pleasantly surprised at the compliments thrown Donald’s way. In the end, I got a sense of surrender on the part of the GOPe.
Here’s why:
Because we are sick of BOTH PARTIES LYING TO US and getting nothing but more of the same, year after year after year...
Not totally embracing this man’s words.....which...some of them...are insulting....
...but a lot of them are endorsing Trump’s attributes
The damning with faint praise at the end....meh
Could be worse

Me and mine will never support Trump. Keep supporting him and you are guaranteeing a loss come November.
Yes, it is easy to make a very simple case against Trump.
HE IS NOT CONSERVATIVE.
Haven’t we learned ( dole, bush, McCain, Romney ) that nominating non conservatives does not end well??
1. Without Trump, the VERY important case against illegal immigration is not being discussed much. Likewise, the stopping of muzzie "immigrants". Those two are THE most important ones to most conservatives, without these being solved we won't have much of a country where we can argue conservatism.
2. Trump can frame the narrative. He frames it in front of the media, and dares them to do something about it, he doubles down on their whining, calls them on it, and wins.
3. No one else has shown they can be effective at any of these things.
Sounds pretty conservative in the right places. Yes I know, but they've all got problems.

I would only consider opposing Trump if the RNC/GOPe was already crying for donations for his campaign. I doubt that will happen even after he wins the nomination.
The democrats haven’t even shown a need to start early to strongly target the incumbent republicans in congress. That’s ominous or they are waiting to see if they need to run to the right or hard left.
“Most Trump supporters are good people, patriotic Americans burned by an elite...”
Could be that we (Trump supporters) are tired of the last eight years. It’s as if we’ve been in an abusive marriage compliments of the PTB in DC. If we get Cruz, Rubio, etc., it’s just shuffling the abusers to new positions but nothing will change. Just realizing that three years from now would be exactly like now is so depressing.
Trump remembers the real America when it was great; the pipsqueaks are too young. They don’t care if America is great again, they only care if they win this title. Trump is high energy and success oriented. He hates to fail and if he’s president his legacy will be important to him, so failing is not an option.
And if he wins the nomination we can cross our fingers and hope for the best.
Why would we pass over a proven constitutionalist for an unknown quantity?
And Trump isn't even more electable. Trump has unprecedented negatives and consistently underperforms Cruz and Rubio.
