Some FReepers, including the big boss JimRob, were smart enough to see the fix 4 years ago, or earlier. I only see it now. We are being played. There is only one party in DC. It’s a ruling cabal where lip service is given to “conservatism” on the right, but the fix is in for the cabal who don’t have the USA citizens’ best interests at heart, only their continued income and power.
Every four years, we conservatives gather round and try to choose the most conservative candidate. We feel so virtuous, honestly weighing the candidates’ curricula vitae. BUT IT’S A GAME THEY PLAY ON US. There is mostly no way a real conservative will be allowed to win, and if a guy from the “right” like W Bush wins, you can believe he is already bought and paid for or under their thumbs.
The right candidate to have even a chance of breaking through the oligarchy’s hold on us will be a candidate who dares speak strongly to the media, and whom no one in power on left or right will support. Reagan was the last man to do this. He wasn’t perfect; no one is.
Your FReeper friends have not deserted the idealism of having a seriously conservative President. They just know that going with a Ted Cruz in 2016 is like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.
WE HAVE LOST OUR COUNTRY and we need to fight the oligarchy to get it back. There is a real chance Trump could achieve something. Not because he is uber conservative; that is non applicable. It’s because he is bold, patriotic, and very rich so he can protect his family from what may threaten them.
We haven’t turned liberal. We have prioritized.
1. Fight the oligarchy that keeps us serfs, and their media arm
Over
2. Feeling really really good about the conservative creds of a candidate who will lose or be owned in office
Please understand how important #1 is.
You really don’t care whether Trump is conservative or not. You just want somebody to shake things up. It’s bizarre.
Good to know.

Here! Here! At this moment, the globalists are trying to get us in WW3 via Syria. Quite frankly Russia can have it—maybe bring some sense to the region after we so screwed it up.
I can’t decide if the nation has gone to fascism or oligarchy. Perhaps they are the same in the Mussolini sense. Didn’t he say that Fascism is the blending of the corporate and the state back in 1923?
For the GOPe, they will be satisfied with 45% of the trough. If they win with their candidate, then its 55%. The whole game is to keep feeding at the trough. Trump is the only candidate who represents Main Street. He threatens the trough. It will be bloody.
I was listening to Michael Steels radio program on Saturday on XM. He had on a RNC Rules guy named Curly ? From North Dakota perhaps. Anyway, they plan on stripping Trump of his delegates even if he has enough to win the first ballot. They plan on ruling that delegates are not bound to the candidate and will invoke Rule 37 to do secret balloting of the delegates on the first round which means that the delegates are not bound to the candidate. The fix is in my FRiends...Does anyone think Cruz would even have a chance at the convention? No..he will go away quietly back to the Senate. Trump on the other hand would roar like the lion he is and expose the whole fraud for what it is and perhaps even launch a nationwide write in campaign.
When Trump decided to give his pledge, I hope he had his team pour over the rules and figure out tactics to beat the RNC at their own cute little game.
This is not about Trump vs Cruz. This is about the state of the nation. Frankly, at this point I don’t care how many conservatives can fit on teh head of a pin. I want to take that pin and jab it in GOPe’s eyeball.
Very well said.
Yaelle is right when he points out
“It’s because he is bold, patriotic, and very rich so he can protect his family from what may threaten them.”
There is no way a city like mine, Los Angeles, could have been a sanctuary city for 30 years without some sort of intimidation. A single person, a mayor, a police chief, a city state or federal attorney general, all the courts, all the governors, and all the presidents for the last 30 years.
Then you add in the city council, the school board, the IRS, welfare and on and on. It is not possible to do without some sort of intimidation.
