I echo Lulu's words: "I am amazed at how sanguine the so-called “Conservatives” are about the buying of the election by the donor class billionaires. They don’t care who is elected; just that it isn’t Donald Trump. The means don’t matter. Dirty tricks don’t matter. And they have no real loyalty to Cruz, either. “Conservative” forums are full of them. They are the real lo-fos – very little knowledge and most don’t want to know. And they think the Trump supporters are the Koolaid drinkers.'

Linda's words: I’m pretty convinced that MOST OF THEM, on both sides of the aisle, work for the New World Order monstrosity. Those are the masters they serve and will always serve, no matter what their rhetoric. That’s why I admire Trump so much. He’s not just fighting the political class, but all of those monsters. I’m really afraid for him, too.

And then there's this:

This comes immediately after Ryan spouts off about unifying the GOP. Time to clean the House and Senate. They all need to go!

Previews of what lies ahead for the convention. Just dub it the anti-Trump convention. But this takes the cake.

Trump as legal standing to sue and take over the defunct “GOP” party. He has legal standing to sue for their reneging on their contract they signed with Trump last year!

This kind of activity is the most outrageous way to spend PAC money.

The Cheap Labor Express owns the RNC/GOP.
Paul Ryan dances to their tune.
He needs to be Cantorized in the August primary before he can abandon the rule of law completely.

Paul Ryan is showing very poor judgment in a number of situations. He had a very promising future at one point. This behavior is very disappointing.

Remember: the GOP is a club, and we’re not in it. I think Trump is beginning to see just how ‘exclusive’ that club is.

Unreal – Paul Ryan Schedules Party Leadership Fundraiser at Home of Anti-Trump Super-PAC Donor…

Posted on by

Speaker of the House Paul Ryan is heading up a National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) fundraiser in New York on April 25th. However, the venue of the fundraiser is raising some eyebrows:

ricketts family 1

For those who might not know, the “Ricketts Family” are the primary donors to a Super-PAC specifically created to block Donald Trump from winning the GOP nomination.

Billionaire family Joe and Marlene Ricketts, owners of the Chicago Cubs, have recently given $5,000,000.oo to Katie Packer who heads “Our Principles PAC“, an organization created exclusively to defeat Donald Trump.

Katie Packer recently outlined what they are doing with the Ricketts money:

Moving forward, Our Principles PAC is organizing delegates and deploying a number of tactics with a goal of depriving Trump of as many delegates as possible in upcoming contests. OPP will focus on delegate wins, not individual state wins.

In addition, OPP will focus on states/districts electing unbound delegates to ensure those delegates are not supporting Trump on a first ballot and tracking candidates running for delegate in upcoming conventions to ensure that even if delegates are bound to Trump on early ballots, they move away on subsequent ballots. (link)

For Speaker Ryan to be heading up a fundraiser in the home of Donald Trump’s primary financial opponent/antagonist speaks volumes to the intent of the Republican Party when it comes to a unity approach. This is not being tone-deaf, this is transparently by design.

Back in 2008 the term “PUMA” was coined due to party shenanigans and insider manipulative efforts intended to block voices within the Democrat party. PUMA stand for “Party Unity My Ass“.

The message being sent by Paul Ryan is clearly one of antagonism toward Mr. Trump as the frontrunner of the Republican party. In addition, it is not a leap to see how this may be correctly perceived as Ryan positioning himself to be the nominee if Donald Trump can be successfully blocked at the republican party convention.

This is quite a significant poke in the eye.

Paul Ryan

My suggestion would be for Donald Trump to purchase tickets for the dinner and either attend himself, or send his people to represent his interests and see what exactly the discussion and establishment intent/tone therein consists of.

New York Congressman Chris Collins, who endorsed Trump, is also listed as a party attendee.

This is a very informative piece regarding Wisconsin politicos. And Cruz by extension.

I’m going to add a note about this on my postcards to Ryan.

“Ricketts? Really? So much for Party Unity.”

I got an email from Ryan today trying to get money.

I wrote him back that I would send money to Trump but do not trust Ryan since he is having a fundraiser with anti-Trump scoundrels.

And I said if he continued to mess with Trump I would withdraw from the Republican party.
