With New Hampshire in the dust and the 2016 presidential campaign moving southward to the Palmetto State, MSNBC's Chris Matthews tonight sought to paint conservative Republican Senator Ted Cruz as a latter-day Richard Nixon ginning up a bag full of "dirty tricks" for the February 20 South Carolina contest.
Dipping out of live coverage of a Donald Trump campaign rally in Pendelton, S.C., Matthews wondered if the GOP frontrunner was "sort of priming the pump now for some dirty action by the Cruz people?"
"I think he should be, if he's not already," Trump campaign correspondent Katy Tur answered. "The dirty tricks of South Carolina are well known, as we were just talking about," she added, before going over a litany of supposed Cruz "dirty tricks" in the Iowa contest. "Those are child's play when it comes to South Carolina politics," Tur noted, concluding that given how all the other campaigns have seasoned "smart South Carolina operatives" on staff, that if "Trump doesn't see these dirty politics, these dirty games coming his way, then he doesn't have a very good staff."(continued)

“You forgot forcing old ladies out of their house so he can build a parking lot.”
We are all sinners with many flaws. Except The Donald.
“How about we all start looking on the bright side of our candidates? That Cruz has a deep faith in God is very cool in my book. That Trump loves the ladies and runs casinos is very cool in my book. Why cast stones at either of them? They’re both changing the game and, most importantly OBLITERATING the Left’s fascist Political correctness.”
Now that sounds like the thinking of a sensible person. But I just see too many statements that one or the other candidate is a lying, cheating, nasty, sleazy something or other to be optimistic.
I am merely pointing out that if people want to start flingin the “Ted Cruz is the most wicked devil since Satan”, line and “Trump is a man of God” memes, they need to expect some blowback.
I live in Vegas. I neither consider the purple haired ladies blameless, nor do I think the casino owners are saits doing God’s work.
The only one who can stop Trump in SC, it seems, is Lindsey Graham! People there truly adore Lindsey.
There’s a regional rift in South Carolina. The Upstate detests Graham (Greenville, Spartanburg area). The rest of the state reelects him.
What’s wrong Chrissy, Cruz doesn’t give you that tingle up your leg?
Is there someone on here who thinks Trump’s casino buildings are God’s work?
Talk to Nebuchadnezzar.
Trying. He lost in Scotland too where the results of a booming town are a mini-mirror of AC’s prosperity.
Didn’t make news here but the Scot redneck would not be budged and was given an award for his perseverance.

Trump had the homes within view of his “greatest golf course in the world” [lost money last 3 years] blocked with piles of dirt and trees. Now those who have lived there for 40 years cannot see the “preservation” dunes and ocean.

Susan, 59, has been penned in too - with a 10ft mound of earth with trees on top blocking her once-expansive view.

What does he do later? He sues the Scottish government when they want to put up windmills within view from the course because it would take away from HIS rightful pleasure of the view from his course.
“He alleged in the judicial review that his own human rights had been breached, because the windfarm, which is funded by the European commission and supported by many local organisations which had also backed Trump’s golf resort, interfered with his “peaceful enjoyment of his property”.”

Guid cheerio the nou!
Nah. Remember this, all rulers are put in place by God. ALL.
The consequences of this election, be it another grand zero or a person who will bring back the constitution and defend the rights of the unborn who see and hear and smell and taste and feel in the womb is all up to Him. Is He willing to let us destroy ourselves because we think we are now gods? I hope not, but I fear yes.
Thing is, God is very, very angry at having to see babies murdered every day. He sees every eye plucked out, every limb dislocated and torn off, and every conceived cell destroyed in addition to each life torturously and agonizingly crushed. He hears their screams. The election should be about life from conception. The rest is moot when God is angry.
