Rage Against the Machinery
Charlie Daniels Soapbox ^ | Feb. 5, 2016 | Charlie Daniels

When I look at public reaction to the candidates in the presidential primary fiasco this election year, it's like something I've never seen in my lifetime.

I've never seen the power players reduced to such a lowly status or seen big money relegated to a secondary position as a business man who has never held public office and a Senator who spent his honeymoon in the old USSR - Union of Soviet Socialist Republics - are, at the very least giving the establishment candidates a sight more than either party’s movers and shakers ever bargained for.

They represent the absolute outward fringes of the Democrat party and something the Republican party neither expected nor was ready to deal with; rank socialism on the Democrat side and a bona fide renegade on the Republican side with a candidate who pays for his own campaign, insults who he pleases, makes fun of whoever he chooses to, has the audacity to skip a debate and walks nobody's line but his own.

This has the effect of terrorizing the machine that has basically controlled the choice of a presidential candidate for about as long as anybody can remember.

I think in the case of Bernie Sanders, the nation at large is not ready for somebody who makes Hillary Clinton look like William F. Buckley when it comes to taxes, regulations and general political philosophy and I feel, unless Mrs. Clinton is called to heel by the Obama Justice Department - which, in my opinion, is about as likely as me being the starting pitcher in the New York Yankees line up - Hillary will start opening up a large delegate gap on Sanders after Iowa and New Hampshire.

If not Hillary, somebody else will ride in on a white stallion and save the Democrats’ day, should Hillary actually be indicted.

Can you say "Joe"?

Trump, on the other hand, is a horse of a different color; he will not go quietly into this, or any other, good night.

I don't think the machine has any idea how livid the public is and what the attraction of a candidate like Trump is all about. They keep throwing good money after bad doing their dead level best to shove their colorless establishment candidates down the throats of a public who has had more than enough.

While Hillary,or whatever democrat candidate who runs, is going to attract 35-40% of the electorate which is made up of Yellow Dog Democrats, entitlement recipients, gays and lesbians and the lion's share of the minority vote.

But there is a dissatisfaction in the ranks as Bernie Sanders, in spite of his problems in trying to win a general election, has threatened Hillary's coronation status and shows that the Republican party is not the only one with dissatisfied voters and an electorate in revolt.

The Republican machine has to be completely bewildered as Trump makes blunder after blunder, each one enough to knock any other contender off their pedestal, but for some reason the pundits and the party power players can't figure out, nothing seems to bring Trump down and his growing poll numbers reflect it.

It's not too hard to understand Trump's popularity, if you look at it though the eyes of an ordinary, street level citizen instead of some jaded power player who sees the possible end of the establishment strangle hold and sees the passing of the torch into hands they cannot control, that could well shred their fraternity and actually change the things they've promised to change for the last fifty years.

Donald Trump is an anomaly; a citizen candidate who has not asked for their advice has not taken their money and has actually excoriated some of the pillars of the Grand Old Party.

He is neither beholden to them, their policies, their influence or their preferences.

He is the fly in the ointment, the fox in the hen house, the new kid on the block who not only refuses to assimilate with the elitists, but defies them, much to the delight of the voters who have heard the gray little men in the dark suits cry wolf one too many times and want a change, a real change, a shake up to the business as usual hacks who promise to make a difference and then go to Washington and toe the party line.

So what’s going to happen?

I sure don't know, but if the powers that be in the Republican Party don't recognize what is happening, the anger, dissatisfaction and downright disgust in the ranks of their grass roots, they'd best start packing their bags.

What do you think?

Pray for our troops and the peace of Jerusalem.

God Bless America

It has been apparent for quite some time that Congress does not respond to the will of those that elected them, but to the will of those who bought and own them. The country has suffered deficits and staggering unemployment as manufacturing has moved out of the US.

We need to take the country back from them.

Charlies summary:
When I look at public reaction to the candidates in the presidential primary fiasco this election year, it’s like something I’ve never seen in my lifetime.

I’ve never seen the power players reduced to such a lowly status or seen big money relegated to a secondary position as a business man who has never held public office and a Senator who spent his honeymoon in the old USSR - Union of Soviet Socialist Republics - are, at the very least giving the establishment candidates a sight more than either party’s movers and shakers ever bargained for.

They represent the absolute outward fringes of the Democrat party and something the Republican party neither expected nor was ready to deal with; rank socialism on the Democrat side and a bona fide renegade on the Republican side with a candidate who pays for his own campaign, insults who he pleases, makes fun of whoever he chooses to, has the audacity to skip a debate and walks nobody’s line but his own.

This has the effect of terrorizing the machine that has basically controlled the choice of a presidential candidate for about as long as anybody can remember.

My summary-—————————————————————————————
The GOPe/Neocon Uniparty elite thugs have been the overseers of the Faux Conservative plantations since 1961. These overseers keep trying to trick/betray/control us to stay on/in their faux conservative plantations by selecting their ilk/puppets as our candidates. They lie and promise us conservatism and when elected $crew us daily in congress and as POTUS!

In NH, Trump and his voters ignored them. His voters then voted big time for Trump. They won and broke the rules of the plantation masters by voting for Trump in NH. This is scaring the hell out of our former neocon GOPe masters of the faux conservative plantations and their ilk, the Club for Growth.

It is wonderful to see this decades old, long standing corrupt political system disintegrating right before our eyes. This corrupted system hates working Americans. It rewards illegals and those who bring them into America to freeload off the American workers slaving in the faux conservative plantation.

We are seeing a paradigm shift with us selecting our Presidential Candidate, instead of the GOPe/Uniparty elites, who hate us, selecting our candidates.

There is a Black Swan event occurring with the daily suicidal self wrought destruction of the GOPe, UniParty, Open Border Thugs, DC faux pundits, Faux News, ABCNNBCBS and the left wing fish wraps. Something similar may be happening with the DEMes.

Many of us are looking forward to seeing the broken bones, drying blood and entrails of the Lying GOP Open Borders Elite, The Club for Growth, the UniParty, their DC faux conservative pundits, their mediots, their phoney pollsters and focus groups, Faux, ABCNNBCBS, their hired tv and radio hacks strewn across the primary states as much as our victories in those states.

We have escaped from their faux conservative plantations. We are not going back for more lies, abuse and mistreatment from our former GOPe masters.

We will vote for Trump and destroy them!
