Is Donald switching teams again? A while back he said he had been on the establishment team, but had flipped against them. Yesterday, he attacked Ted Cruz for daring to truthfully point out Mitch McConnell had lied to conservatives.
That does not sound very anti-establishment to me. Defending Mitch McConnell is a defense of the establishment. It is also bad form.
Cruz was right. McConnell was lying and had been lying to conservatives. Him pointing it out on the Senate floor was necessary to expose McConnell. Trump is wrong to attack him for that.
This is just more evidence that Trump and the establishment are cozying up to stop Cruz.
NO IT ISN'T
Trump's true anti-disestablishmentarianism is being revealed.
I always wanted to use that word in a sentence. Thank you Mr. Trump.
Mac did the lying to Cruz’s face in front of the other senators in the meeting they had. Blatant, outright, intentional. The difference in the method of calling him a liar was Cruz did it with some sense of decorum. Trump would have screamed it while jumping up and down on the podium and would have continued for weeks. Trump does not have the tolerance to let it go that he was blatantly lied to in front of his fellow senators.
So him calling out Cruz on this deal is cheap crap. He has no soul.
If your going to run for an office, get your money the old fashioned way, by EARNING it, so we don't have a government ‘owned’ by Wall Street, superpacs and lobbyists or special interest groups...
He's connected with CFR, H1B visa, Goldman Sachs, Citibank and is a ‘globalist’ candidate, THEY tell HIM what to do...
I’m pretty sure it’s denial.
Yes we do. But that had a heck of a lot more to do with Obama being a rabid leftist then it did with Obama being an experienced senator. We have not suffered with leadership incompetence the last 7 years. We have suffered with someone hell bent on giving us full blown liberalism and socialism the past 7 years.
Trump doesn’t care if he lies or distorts reality...he really doesn’t... and is more then likely laughing his butt of for any who get their pants in a knot over something he says.....
But he WILL watch those polls and the relation to them of what he says...he’s a numbers guy....and you can guarantee he will act to do something outrageous or sensational to keep those polls riding on him...creating stories or whatever...including bad news.... He knows what his supporters and the media will respond to and it doesn’t take much because he’s had 30 years experience playing them to his advantage..
:)
We need to get rid of almost all the House and Senate, and hoping we can do that as they come up for re-election...but we have to vet them completely....know who is backing them, (Wall Street, super packs, lobbyists, special interest groups) if so, we don't want them in there, we want people that represent WE the American People...if you have to take a second job to earn the money for a campaign, or have people do bake sales, or car washes, or old fashioned ways of getting the money to run for an office, then do it...we have to get the ‘money grabbers’ out of government!!!
That is a true leader. Make things work as long as it in the best interest of the American people. It is impossible to rebuild every damn corrupt politician in Washington and most of the States. But a strong President, and Trumps ideas seem to be what America needs to recover, can make changes. Look how King Obama destroyed America. Was he strong or weak? A real dealing president can get much done.
“he’s backed by Wall Street, super pacs, lobbyists, and that is what WE the American Voters DO NOT want...”
Who do you think funded Trump to build his towers?
Same groups of people.
Ted Cruz is grown up.
It’s politics, man. Gets down and dirty sometimes. Trump isn’t playing not to win.
As far as Cruz being lied to, well that’s what happens when you put your trust in a liar.
Did they also lie to Cruz to get his vote on the Corker Bill?
Or did he just give that freely because he trusts all those guys in the senate, and they time after time do the right thing?
Every time Touchback Trump does this, it hurts him and helps Cruz.
Calling Mitch McConnell a loser or dopey or stupid is clearly a much better way to deal with somebody.
Every time Touchback Trump does this, it hurts him and helps Cruz.
Every time Touchback Trump does this, it hurts him and helps Cruz.
Right.
But who does Trump attack? Who does he defend?
Right now, Trump is kissing up to 0bama's rumpswab, the turtle-faced bastard from Kentucky.
And Trump wants my vote???
He's doing his level best to alienate me entirely.
Both obuma and Cruz have two of the same problems, both 3 years of Junior Senators, and a birther problem....
Our government was so over excited to have the first Black person to be POTUS, they forgot our Constitution and everything that makes America the Country that she is...and now look where we are....
I want someone with some business knowledge and life experiences, like myself, to run this country...
