I’ve noticed that most of my readers are not Trump fans, and I appreciate that. I love you guys for being reasonable and not falling for this glorified circus elephant. But Trump fans will come out of the woodwork because of my latest piece here, and when they do I want you to notice something: they claim they like Trump’s “blunt and unapologetic” approach, but watch how they react when that blunt and unapologetic strategy is turned against them. Watch what happens when someone is blunt and unapologetic towards them.
This is the first sign that Trump’s legion of admirers aren’t sincere. They say they like his tone — which is already a terrible, horrible, ridiculous reason to elect someone president — but it turns out that they just like his tone when he’s regurgitating their own shallow sentiments.
Trump, of course, is the same way. He claims to be the bold, politically incorrect guy, but he cries like a scrawny bully when anyone punches him back. He’s weak. And that’s what led to the now infamous incident a few days ago, where he attacked Megyn Kelly for asking him tough questions, insinuating that she was on her period.

"Contrary to the two-decade-old insistence of the Bushioisie — GOP uberlobbyist Haley Barbour’s Sunday appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union” being only the latest example — Ross Perot did not “cost” George H.W. Bush his 1992 reelection; rather, Perot’s campaign saved George H.W. Bush from an ignominious and humiliating loss, a defeat that likely would have rivaled Franklin Roosevelt’s 1932 drubbing of Herbert Hoover.Consider:
On November 3, 1992, Bill Clinton defeated George H.W. Bush and Ross Perot for the presidency by a margin of 43-37-19 percent.
Ever since that loss to Bill Clinton, it has been the standard operating procedure of Bush supporters everywhere to blame the loss on Perot’s independent run..."
It seems either you are ready to jump in front of Trump and take a bullet or you are GOPe no room for people who are actually doing the work and who have been for sometime. The fact Cruz stood on the Senate floor and call Mitch (Brobam’s Bitch) McConnell a liar. Yawn, tell Megan Kelly has blood coming out of where ever because she ask a hard question Standing Ovation!
“It is all over FR...watch how belligerent certain Freepers are when you simply challenge the Donald...”
Haven’t seen it yet. Can you point me to a thread?
“Who is Matt Walsh and why should anyone give a damn?”
He’s a real nowhere man, sitting in his nowhere land.
This guy is a fool. He thinks we do not know what he is up to. He says we can’t take criticism. He says Trump can’t take it either. Yet, he loves to criticize us — and get away with it, suggesting the proper response is to take it lying down. He expects this response because he and his ilk have been getting away with it for much too long. Well, I have to tell him, those days are over. We are fed up with this upside down BS rationale. If the school yard bully hits me, I’m going to immediately slug him with all I got. That is the only way the jerk will stop. In my Marine Corps days I learned a lot and one thing was uppermost. Stay on offense. If you stop pressing offense and do not keep moving forward, the enemy will immediately start bracketing you and you are dead meat. So do not take the phony argument that you have to be more “mature” and civilized while your enemy is bashing you and calling you every name in the book. Liberals love ridiculing their adversary for practicing tactics that they are most guilty of practicing themselves. It is their standard MO.
Angry? His response to Megyn and especially his response in the last few days has won me over to him.
“Hey look”
Oh come on he is wearing those “smart glasses” that all smart people wear, well mostly women wear but still.
“The real problem are his supporters. These are conscious, intelligent adults who have chosen to make a mockery of the political process and play games with my country’s future. For this reason, because I love my country and I take it’s fate seriously, I am angry at these people”.
OMG, how naive ia this Matt person. Dear Matt, your country has been made a mockery of for over eight years now. How dare you blame the people who have watched this destructive and fraudulent political process ruin our lives for far too long now.
Without any help or support of the Republican party. You and your ilk have sat back and watched Obama destroy MY country and the lives of my family and friends.
What does your shameful party do to the people who gave you control ? You and your ilk crapped on them. You delivered nothing. That nothing is the same thing you offered in the last two Presidential races. Two candidates that we all hated. Your ilk told us we had to have them because they are the only people who can win. That was BS and you know it.
So hop down, Mr Matt, off you high horse. Your country is going down because of Obama and the willing collusion of the Republican Party.
Go away, I have no stomach for your whining bile.
Trump might not be the right guy. There is another who may be. But....I bet you will be whining about him too any day now.
Yup, just look in this very thread. Look at how many (though not all) Freepers are responding to this article not by addressing the points made in the article, but rather by engaging in personal, lowest-common-denominator insults against the author. Calling him a nobody, criticizing his appearance, etc. Gosh, where could they have learned that strategy???
“Why is Trump given a pass on so many issues?”
Because he is the only one saying what should be said.
Of course, there’s that pesky credibility problem. Does he mean what he says, or is he just messing with us?
Still haven’t graduated to “Intelligence of a Conservative” yet, have you?
I’m not “afraid of Trump upsetting the status quo.”
Trump is an ass. He doesn’t scare me.
FWIW, I’m a Cruz supporter as well, and have supported his campaign financially. As you and I know, Cruz is no GOPe ...

BlowIOYA Matt!
“Whatever happened to the days when conservatives were “fed up” with the process and wanted a “revolution”, which was like 3 whole weeks ago?”
Never forget that there are a *lot* of false-flag posters here.
Yup. Just look at the comments in this thread.
