A Bad Goodbye
Michelle Obama's Mirror ^ | 5-4-2016 | MOTUS

Posted on 05/04/2016 6:45:44 AM PDT by NOBO2012

As I presciently reflected last February, Trump was inevitable:

Henry II: The day those stout hearts band together is the day that pigs get wings.

Eleanor: There'll be pork in the treetops come morning. – A Lion in Winter

And well, that’s that. Yes, I’m disappointed. Cruz was my guy from the gate. Butt that ship has sailed. And honestly, like others before him,Ted also disappointed along the way. I believe I’ve mentioned that all politicians will eventually break your heart. They’re just people after all, burdened with all the human faults and foibles we all have - only more so.

For this bittersweet parting I offer up the ultimate breakup song:

A Bad Goodbye

 

So time to man-up and pull our line together. I know there are many #NeverTrump-sters out there. I know he’s not really a conservative butt he’s also not a communist, a socialist or a felon. I know he shoots his mouth off and attacks any comers who dare criticize him. I know that his manner can be quite off-putting. It’s called fighting dirty. It’s what Democrats do. Principles are lovely things, butt when your country is literally being overrun with illegals and crushed by socialist programs with their attendant debt, it’s time to put your principles in storage for a bit and fight dirty.

Because the two things we know for sure is 1)  Democrat “campaigns” are always run by Alinsky’s Rules and 2) Republicans won’t use them so they lose. The Donald is one of the few on our side who is quite willing to fight dirty, and the only one who really knows how to do it. When he gets down in the mud he leaves more muck on his opponent than himself. He’s combined The Art of the Deal with Alinsky’s Rules. We would be foolish not to support the first Republican in a very long time who’s willing to push back rather than simply slow the rate of the enemy’s advancement.

I know none of us knows for sure what he’ll do if elected. Butt we do know what Clinton et al will and frankly I find that much more alarming. At least with Trump we get a wall. And perhaps we won’t have to pawn the country.

So tonight why don’t we set politics aside. Following the very stressful “If it’s Tuesday it must be Indiana” primary tour we can all chillax for a few hours at the MOTUS Twilight Nocturne Lounge.

 

Here are the details:

And that is the choice isn't it? It is truly a sad day (for me at least, I have been a Cruz supporter since Day One). So we move on, and the Evil One, the PIAPS, the Hildebeast, MUST BE DEFEATED. HILLARY DELENDA EST.

I lot of people like to say they will not vote for the lesser evil.

But this isn’t about that, its voting for the greater good. The choice is so clear it isn’t even close.

For all his faults, which we will all get to know very well over the next 8 years, he is like granite on national sovereignty, and on the economy. And he has little patience for the pieties of phony political correctness. Those three things will make him a breath of fresh air. The rest we’ll learn to contend with.

“And honestly, like others before him,Ted also disappointed along the way. I believe I’ve mentioned that all politicians will eventually break your heart. They’re just people after all, burdened with all the human faults and foibles we all have - only more so.”

So while this line applies to Cruz, the rest of it goes on to lament about this very thing in Trump.

I see this all the time from folks. Trump may NOT have been a politician, but he is now. He is a politician. He woke up one morning and decided that was what he was going to be.

As a politician he places these things in action:
1. He doesn’t look at me and you like we’re scum. He doesn’t remember our name 2 seconds after hearing it - but still he also doesn’t avoid us and look down on us.
2. Everyone thinks it’s great to be a “Straight Shooter”. I had a sales call with a guy who said “I’m a straight shooter” and “I won’t bullshit you” but when the meeting came to something he didn’t like he literally said “Oops ! Someone really important just walked through the door. I have to go” and hung up.

So he SAYS one thing, and DOES another.

Are you the kind of guy who says he likes a “Straight Shooter”?

If you are, then you should appreciate Trump for this. When he says “I’m the only guy who is going to do this” he means that. IT’s called “straight shooting”.

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

What’s your guess as to what Cruz will do now? His history is one of not staying in a
job but a few years before moving on to something else. I personally don’t see him
hanging out in the Senate for another term.

Your beef should be with the GOP establishment. They made Trump. If they had only done what they said they would do and not support Obama on every turn, Trump would have never been an issue.

I love the “Lion in Winter” quotes. My favorite is “let’s strike a match and see.”

There ain’t enough liquor in the US to reconcile me with the GOP-E.
Pretty much we’re hosed.
The choices will be a Clown, a Crook, or a Commie.

You left out Congress. Congress who just passed Obama's budget and funded planned parenthood.

There ain’t much choice about Congress, though I am voting against my Rep, Doug Collins. Vote for Broun, or someone.
He came in as a Tea Partier, but became a Establishment hack.
