Sooner or later Trump will be in free-fall ...

Ah man, you’re so much smarter than that!

And Fox will work behind the scenes to work out an agreement with Trump. It is all about the ratings. Trump is no idiot. He knows that when he strikes back, it acts as a deterrent against future attacks.

No doubt the other candidates are learning that lesson too. They are very circumspect about going after Trump head-on.

Ditto.

When you have In-Laws who up to this point in time are as Apolitical as the Amish bringing up Trump in Conversation, you know something is up.

I’ve been preaching Cruz to them for years and they just look at the Ceiling while I waste my breath.

All of a sudden, my Wife pipes up and tells me she was talking to her Mother about how she really likes Trump. I ask her why and she tells me that she and apparently her Mother think Trump will actually do something to get America back on track.

As soon as Trump brought the Illegal Invader problem front and center they were hooked. I am still dumbfounded by this complete change in People that I felt were Moderate to Center Left in their Beliefs, and yes I’m including my Wife in that observation. (No, she does not read my FR Posts, I enjoy living in peace)

Did I mention that my Wife, her Sisters and Mother are Latinas? (well, half Latina anyway, her Mother Married a Gringo who spent half his Childhood in Mexico)...

Whatever the next Year brings, it will be the most interesting Election Season I can remember.

I guess Trump should have demanded a loyalty oath from the GOPe and the RNC. The GOPe would rather lose than see someone who is not a member of the club win.

Rich Lowry and NRO died to me when they forced out John Derbyshire for telling non-racist truths about race in America. Lowry is a cowardly dipshit who has nothing to do with true conservatism.

So Trump's solution in answer to a critical member of the press exercising the 1st amendment is to call in the federal government . . . to punish that person? Interesting.
And some people think only the left calls for the government to punish those with whom they disagree for no good reason other than that they do disagree.

We're talking about a man who threatens to sue tiny T-shirt makers for making shirts with slogans he doesn't like . . . who wants to sue a policy group for nothing better than that it disagrees with his (actual or alleged) policies (to The Donald, apparently, a policy disagreement equals defamation; didn't we all think it was a bit of an outrage when the when policy disagreements equaled defamation or close enough to His Excellency Al Hashish Field Marshamallow Dr. Barack Obama Dada, COD, RIP, LSMFT, Would-Be Life President of the Republic Formerly Known as the United States?) . . .

Funny how The Donald and his sycophancy defended his right to call Rosie O'Donnell a fat pig during a debate but deny Rich Lowry's right to say another candidate castrated him, metaphorically, during another debate.

Does not the FCC regulate obscene, indecent and profane language — have they not had the responsibility of doing so for many decades? I would not expect to tune in to Fox News and hear that kind of thing.

The FCC has the authority to regulate content that goes over public airwaves. Not cable.

Only on broadcast TV; the FCC has no jurisdiction over cable TV.

Jindal is not thin-skinned, and he said he would build a wall too:

JINDAL: Yeah, I wanted to clarify - I want to make very clear that everybody understands my position is, we need to secure the border, period.

Any talk of doing any more - we don’t need a comprehensive plan, don’t need an 1,000-page bill, like the Gang of Eight. We don’t need amnesty.

Everybody in D.C. talks about it. We need to get it done. As president, I’ll get it done in six months. It won’t be perfect, but we can get it done. -CNN Debate

Back when I was drinking the Republican kool aid I would have agreed with chipmunk cheeks(of course I’m talking about Rich Lowry)........NO MORE. He’s a pompous know-it-all and I can’t stand to watch him now. What was I thinking. I pray the Donald will set this uni-political class on it’s arse.......we sure couldn’t do worse than what we have now.

This article is a negative piece, sure, but a hit piece? Nah. It’s factual, and makes an argument based on Trump’s own conduct and statements.

[...FCC take em off the air.]

Maybe they should tell the media that they are required to bleep out offensive words or statements so that young impressive children won’t have to ask their parents...”What does that mean’ Daddy”?

Yeah, I was raised in a generation in the distant past.
