Trump: ‘We have to take back the heart of our country’
Washington Post ^ | July 11 at 10:22 PM | By Philip Rucker and Robert Costa

PHOENIX — Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, whose caustic comments about Mexicans have inflamed the immigration debate, told thousands of cheering supporters here Saturday that “we have to take back the heart of our country.”

In a rambling, defiant speech delivered in this border state that has been the epicenter of the nation’s divisive battle over immigration reform, Trump declared: “These are people that shouldn’t be in our country. They flow in like water.” One man in the crowd of 4,200 shouted back, “Build a wall!”

Basking in polls that show he has risen to the top of the crowded Republican field, Trump took obvious glee in mocking former Florida governor Jeb Bush, the establishment favorite who is setting fundraising records.

The longer Trump stays in, the more his presence guarantees the nomination of Jebby. Thus the longer he stays in, the more he guaranteed a loss.
Little Bushie’s shortcomings as a campaigner are surprising. In his arrogance he apparently didn’t prepare for even easy and obvious questions.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, whose truthful comments about Mexicans have ended the immigration debate,

This is how it should read. This is what scares the establishment.

Trump is in this, to win it.

The quicker you guys realize that, the quicker you can get with your own people, and have them also start talking about real solutions, to the very real problems facing our great country.

Trump is talking about real problems, and real solutions.

That is why is is rocketing into the lead.

I'm just rewatching yesterday's speech in Phoenix, taking it bit by bit.

Some may call Trump's style rambling, but it is actually quite good. It's very personal and honest and informal. People like that kind of style.

He's fun to listen to because you never know what he'll say next.

And the idea of interrupting his speech to introduce Mr. Shaw was brilliant.

Also, I didn't realize that Trump's wife was a legal immigrant. That's gonna help with convincing Hispanics that he's not against immigration...just illegal immigration.

“Trump is talking about real problems, and real solutions”

Mighty refreshing, mighty refreshing indeed.

The truth hurts, especially if you are a sheeple.

Oh come on, as you have already (accurately) predicted, Trump is going to endorse Hillary!

Interesting... The Washington compost figured out that the Phoenix rally was too big a deal to ignore, unlike many other newspapers who had nary a word to say about the rally yesterday.

The problem for the media is that the rally is all over the alternate (real) media. You can’t escape it on Facebook or Twitter.

Eggzactly.... presents a real problem for the lamestream. They have a vested interest in hiding it but by doing so, they undermine their own raison d'etre and as such, they hasten their own extinction.

Bush seems very dull and uninspiring to me.

Every time I see or hear him on tv, I feel as if I should take a nap.

Watching Trump smack talk Jebbie is just delicious.
