Tuesday night was a moment off clarification. We learned two things about election 2016:
First, Trump is a political force of nature and, though not unstoppable, is in a commanding position to win the GOP nomination. For all the talk about who among the governors and Senators who got 12 percent and 11 percent and 10 percent, Trump won more of the vote than Bush, Rubio, and Cruz combined.
As Rich Lowry of National Review points out, "Trump won nearly every demographic group. Old and young. Rich and poor."
Second, Hillary is the Walking Dead. She isn't going to president.
Democrats are as glum as can be today, because the realization is setting in that they are going to nominate someone as likable to voters as Michael Dukakis. Tuesday's vote was a resounding rejection by 60 percent of Democrats of Saint Hillary.
Quick: What is Hillary's message? A third Obama term? Voters overwhelmingly don't want that. She's reinvented herself so many times she has no convictions at all.
Meanwhile, Trump surges. His splendid victory speech last night, was all about love of country -- about patriotism.
It is striking that Trump is the anti-Obama in every way. Obama blames America first for every problem on the earth, from global warming to terrorism. Trump emanates love for America and pledges to "make America great again."
Obama hates business. Trump runs businesses.
Obama is a pessimist. Trump is an optimist.
Obama is an elitist. Trump is a populist.
Obama is a college professor and a community organizer. Trump is a job creator and a profit maker.

An unvetted candidate pushed on the U.S. by media hype, and the U.S. has no clue about the candidates real background. Oh, yeah, they are completely different.
M I guess the main difference between the two is Obama wanted to moderate socialized healthcare while Trump wants full on single payer socialized healthcare.
Trump is the first happy warrior with a real chance to win we have had in decades.
THAT IS NOT THE SOLE relevant personal quality required to be an acceptable chief executive officer of the government of the United States of America.
Unlike one of Trump’s business corporations or financial configurations, the American people are represented in the halls (and nooks and crannies)of their national government by elected state and sub-state district representatives. They have not vested all executive power in a single person, although that mode of governance admittedly can be very gratifying to a self-centered personna.

Trump is the anti-Obama:
* White
* Capitaist
* Not muslim
* Heterosexual
* Has a beautiful wife
* Not a half-assed communist
* Has a valid birth US certificate
* Doesn’t want to destroy America
* Doesn’t confuse a garbled mix of Marxist and Koranic dogma with inteeigence
Remember when Hillary used to hate the electoral college?? That was soooo 2000...

>>>Obama is a college professor and a community organizer<<<
Obama has never been a College Professor.
He was a Guest Propagandist.
He wasn’t a Community Organizer, he was a Black Neighborhood
Rabble Rouser.
“...... I donât think anyone knows for sure what he will do”
That, my friend, is a big problem. I don’t like venturing the future of world we live in today on one roll of the dice.
Trump is the first happy warrior with a real chance to win we have had in decades.

Indeed. But does it not matter to you that he is not a conservative?
Cute.
LOL. Then why he did he run on the same positions as Bernie in NH?
Unlike Obama, Trump likes banging chicks . . . gorgeous ones and not the sad little fatties Billy Jeff prefers.
agreed
Love that picture.
That’s pretty much what I’ve been thinking. Trump and Obama are both as populists for disparate parts of a bifurcated nation.
As a liberal elitist Obama is still regarded as a populist by the left.
I distrust Trump. If elected, he’s either going to be one of the greatest presidents in my lifetime or push Jimmy Carter into third place for worst.
I think too many people are hung up on a label. We need to nominate the candidate who has the best ideas of now to fix our broken country and who can actually get elected.
Trump is conservative enough.
“...Suppose the courts rule against what he wants to do...”
Well, some people are claiming he is just like Obama...If so, he’ll just ignore the courts and do what he wishes....
