As the spring draws nigh, Donald Trump, the businessman and media personality turned presidential candidate, is considered in many quarters to be all that is wrong about politics. Bernie Sanders supporters have taken to violently disrupting Trump campaign rallies. On the other side of the political spectrum, Republican movers and shakers are scheming to deny Trump the nomination by any means necessary, even if it means supporting Senator Ted Cruz. So, the logical consequence of this state of affairs is that comparing any other politician to Donald Trump is the worst insult one can devise short of violating Godwins law and bringing in Adolf Hitler. Ted Cruz went there on Meet the Press when he suggested that President Barack Obama is just like Trump in that he is a world-class demagogue.

Another dirty trick by the slimy Cuban with the iffy citizenship status and record. Go back to Canada, Cruz.
What many don't realize is that anyone on the Republican ticket (who is not RNC/GOPE bought and paid for) will face so much resistance from both sides of the aisle that it will be a hard uphill battle to get anything positive done. I believe that Trump has the ability and brashness to make some good things happen and to point out all the asshats that currently enjoy the demise of the People - he's the only one who really has nothing to lose by loading both barrels and using ammunition like it's weed whacker string.
His campaign has taken on the Bushies. He’s acting like a uniparty Establishment globalist guy for a reason.
More lies from Trump worshipers. Here’s what Cruz actually said, for those who care:
SEN. TED CRUZ: You know, Chuck, Barack Obama’s a world class demagogue. That language there is designed to divide us. No, Mr. President, we’re not angry at that. We’re angry at politicians in Washington, including you, who ignore the men and women who elected you. Who have been presiding over our jobs going overseas for seven years.
Who have been cutting deals that are enriching the rich and powerful, the special interests and the big corporations, while working men and women are seeing their wages stagnating. And he talks about immigrants and Muslims. Mr. President, we’re mad at a president who wants to bring in Syrian refugees who may be infiltrated by ISIS. And you’re unwilling to be commander in chief and keep us safe. So don’t engage in attacking the people, like the president did. I’ll tell you, that language is the kind of self-righteous moralizing from the President that makes people angry.
CHUCK TODD: You think that’s worse than what Donald Trump’s been doing?
SEN. TED CRUZ: To be honest, I think it’s very much the same. They’re both engaging in demagoguery. We need instead a president who wakes up every day working for the hardworking taxpayers.
As a variation of a famous quote goes. I knew Barry Goldwater and Trump is no Goldwater.
