Trump is already positioning himself for the general election. He sees the polls and know he’s got the nomination.
ANY Republican nominee is going to be saddled with the George W. Bush record on the economy (corporate welfare bailouts) and wars (total chaos in Iraq and all over the middle east).
Trump just positioned himself where he can’t be attacked on those two huge liabilities.
Was brilliant and people here still don’t see it.
Every am”bush” backfires because Trump is too smart to be trapped. Pack the audience? Doesn’t work out well when the object of attack has the guts to out you early and often.
I hope this article is accurate, Trump faces also the chattering from the pundits after the debate who mostly claimed that he needs to play nice with the audience and that he let himself react poorly to other candidates who were attacking him. I personally hope that Trump just keeps being Trump.
Never imagined I would turn on CNN and MSNBC just to laugh at the experts lie about Trump’s performance.
“He’s was booed loudly”, esclaimed Bob Schiefer. Bob is still operating under the assumption the MSM control the narrative, that Americans are unaware of the truth t That Trump called out the Bush Donor and Lobbiest stacked audience. All I saw was a doddering old lying fool.
I don’t yell as much at the TV anymore, knowing there are enough of us pointing laughing and mocking.
...and near as I can tell, it all started when the “Trump hates Immigrant” narrative crashed and burned, marking the first time in history the MSM got call out and smashmouthed by we the people.
Trump for President.
Times about up on the banker economy, and like any other trend you will want to jump before the SHTF. Trump is the only candidate that is not going to get caught behind the curve. That’s pretty important. As is the admirable fortitude :)
That first comment is a classic! Light it off and stand back!
My first reaction was not as charitable and the boos and unsportsmanlike conduct was annoying. Knowing the RNC arranged it out of petty spite reminded me of a high school clique who agrees to snub a kid or to make sure they get no applause for a performance. Juvenile.
But then I remembered how those things usually backfired on the clique-members, exposing them as small and petty. And so shall it be for the RNC in the end. In a way I can’t blame them because they know they’ll never get a dime from anyone who is a Trump supporter anyway, and if he wins, it will be the end of the GOP-e, if not the Republican Party.
He is Trumping out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored...
Like The New Yorker film critic Pauline Kael who said in 1972, she didn't know a single person who voted for Nixon.
Brooks Brothers republicans
I was a Brooks Brothers republican before the recession. Now I'm just a Jos. A. Bank republican.
(Riff on Lovey Howell's, "Thurston was a billionaire before the depression. Now he's just a millionaire.")
NH didn’t know a single Trump supporter reminds me of Pauline Kael in 1972 saying:
“I live in a rather special world. I only know one person who voted for Nixon. Where they are I don’t know. They’re outside my ken. But sometimes when I’m in a theater I can feel them.”
The elite so special so above the unwashed masses of humanity who they believe they rule.
The guy has such a powerful persona about him that it shrinks his opponents into irrelevancy.
Prince Rebus has the vapors & is collapsed on the fainting couch in hysterics. Karl Rove is at his side with the smelling salts.

The “round table” on ABC said If Trump wins SC after that debate, he can’t be stopped. They all think he lost the debate big time.
