Donald Trump Is Fighting...But For What?

Conservative Review ^ | 12/14/2015 | Daniel Horowitz

Oh give me a break. It's a figure of speech.

*********************

Not really.

[Kenny]

EXACTLY!!! Apparently many people do not care “for what.” They just want the biggest rabid dog they can get. Wanna bet he ends up biting them, too?

That big rabid dog is the only reason you have a say in this election. How quickly we forget our frustration when we can't fight the GOP and they rule with an iron fist.

I know some of you are now looking for a lapdog, cocker spaniel or poodle. You'll soon find out how that cutie holds up against the pit bull that is our media and GOPe.

[TBP]

Correct. I didn’t say you said it. But it’s ridiculous, whoever says it.

Trump was looking for a reason to go after Cruz and now he is looking for a reason to go third party and take his little cult following with him. Current polling strongly suggests that the only way Hillary wins is if the other side is split.

[Cowman]

I have long felt that Trump was nothing more than a Democrat plant

I remember the last time a Clinton had the Dem nomination and a loudmouth billionaire ran as a third party candidate to split the GOP vote. --- I'm just sayin'

[gov_bean_ counter]

"Hillary should be in prison for what she did"? Nope!

You do realize that Hillary's base support doesn't care, right? The only way she wins is if the Republican Party is severely fractured. I thing that is really what was discussed with Bill all those many months ago and is what Trump is working for.

Are all of you Trump bashers having fun this afternoon? I’ve not seen a thread so full of lies and insults in awhile.

[gov_bean_ counter]

Yep.

[Charles Henrickson]

Methinks Donald failed to think this thing all the way through.

S.O.P. for him.

[DoughtyOne]

Please check out who the self-proclaimed Very Conservative and Somewhat Conservative people voted for in this poll.

It's on page two in a box with vote breakdown.

This is going to be a rude awakening for those who think only moderate Republicans support Trump.

Trump: 41 - 45

Cruz: 26 - 8

That was the same reaction I had both times I saw it here on FR.

[gov_bean_ counter]

Then log off. Problem solved.

[Nifster]

Trump says he likes Justice Thomas...I can live with that.

There are things that Scalia says and does that give me pause

The really cool thing about politics, is that you can lie all day long to get the job, even cheat if you want to. Once you win, you can do whatever you want without paying any attention to whatever promises you made to get elected. Possible scenarios:

1. Trump wins all the way thru: He'll be more like Bill Clinton than you could possibly imagine.
2. Trump wins the primary: He'll then sandbag his campaign in favor of Hillary.
3. Trump loses the primary and runs Independent and pulls a Perot, in favor of Hillary.
4. Trump loses in the primary and gracefully bows out. (What are the chances?)

Keep this handy and I'll admit I'm wrong if I am. In 2008, I predicted that 0bama would not willingly leave office in Jan, 2017. I still stand by that prediction.

[Nifster]

Rather be bit by Trump than suffer that as swipe Yeb!

[trisham]

Ross Perot? He was very unattractive.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Wanna bet he ends up biting them, too?

Okay, I'll bite.....

Name one politician or "conservative" that hasn't bitten....that is 100% pure.

[DoughtyOne]

Thank you for reminding us Trump is an international real estate investment and management mogul.

Next you’ll be telling us Trump goes out and picks out the exact nails and equipment that will be used on each of his sites.

You guys from the GOPe are so funny...

[DoughtyOne]

Can’t read his platform, or even understand English.

Poor guy...

[katana]

Operating on gut instincts and New York velocity insults have served Trump very well so far in terms of opinion polls. Meanwhile his admirers are beginning to resemble a sort of mirror image of this famous brain dead groupie, that is a caricature of fawning fandom. All that might carry him through to the nomination. But his candle is burning awfully bright and saying whatever pops into your head without thinking through the consequences is a risky way to run a marathon length campaign.
