So I asked Bitey the Dog about her views on NATO, and she responded by growling and attacking my sock. In doing so, she offered a more comprehensive, insightful, and sane commentary on this vital alliance than the putative Republican frontrunner.
Yes, its been a bad couple weeks for Donald Trump. Lets review:
· His skeevy attacks on Ted Cruzs wife confirmed his status, in the eyes of women, as Americas nightmare first husband.
· His transparent plant of the bizarre Ted Cruz, Sex God story in his pals pseudo-paper offended anyone who doesnt require a drool bib.
· He repudiated his pledge to support the eventual nominee hard to believe Donald Trumps word is literally not worth the paper its printed on and managed to both alienate even more Republicans while simultaneously putting at risk some of his own delegates.
· His campaign manager got charged with battering a woman, the same women whose Bic pen the noted Vietnam War non-veteran subsequently claimed placed him in mortal danger.
· He was ordered to report to Principal Priebuss office for some pathetic groveling before the establishment he pretends hes broken.
· He was unable to decide whether women who have an abortion should be tossed in a dungeon or given a medal.
· Polls are predicting his impending humiliation in Wisconsin.
And, to compound his hilarious and well-deserved agony, people are starting to review the general election polls the real polls, not the online polls that unemployable geebos in red hats live to vote in and they are seeing that it might be an uphill climb to win an election when about 60% of voters actively despise you. And thats just among Republicans.
But a bad week for Trump is a good week for America. This clown isnt done yet, but his sell-by date as Republican is fast approaching and I couldnt be happier.
Now we just have to convince him to run third party, which is barely a threat because many of his dwindling supporters were probably never going to vote GOP anyway. Plus, he may weaken Hillary more by drawing in a bunch of alienated Bernie dorks, since the Democrats whose party establishment is actually competent are gonna shaft them like Richard Roundtree.
Plus, half of what Trump babbles could come out of Sanderss mouth anyway. The governments main purposes is healthcare, housing, and education? Not the American governments main purpose, you creepy talking troll doll.
Yeah, let Trump run as a third party candidate, except he wont because that will simply compound the yuge rejection thats coming. Moreover, he doesnt really even want to be president my contacts have been telling me for months that Trump never expected this and has tried to find a way to get out without looking like a wuss, including considering a fake cancer scare. And there is no chance the famously cheap Trump would ever spend the money he needs to run a general election campaign. The GOP donors would abandon him in favor of saving down ballot candidates from being pulled down the Donald Drain too. You cant fight Hillary by calling into Morning Joe every day.
Nor is it clear he even could run as third party candidate. This super smart savvy business genius forgot about all those arcane third party ballot rules, meaning he could only run in a fraction of the states. Man, Id hate to be the Trump minion who has to tell Stubby Digits about that whole Electoral College thing.
Trump has surrounded himself with the best people the best at screwing up. When they arent getting busted for picking on girls they are managing to lose delegates in places like Louisiana to Ted Cruz. Turns out actually doing the hard work of learning about the nominating rules and creating an infrastructure to take advantage of them gets you better results than improvising a campaign out of Hannity appearances and rambling rally speeches.
Lyin Ted? Try Winnin Ted. You know, the one tying or beating the Wicked Witch of Arkansas as opposed to being crushed by her by double digits. That Ted.
Now, I am a Cruz supporter, and I saw him live in Beverly Hills last week at a fundraiser yeah, Trumpoids, Ted has to raise money because his daddy didnt give him millions of dollars. Ive seen Cruz several times in the last couple years and he is much, much improved. He focuses on three key themes with appeal across party lines jobs, civil rights (like religious liberty and the Second Amendment) as well as national security. People want to paint him as crazy, but I litigate in the California courts and know crazy when I see it Ted does not come across as crazy. He also gets hit for being preachy I did not see that either. And I must have missed the raw sexual firepower that Trumps slack-jawed battalions attribute to him.
I want to see the Ted Cruz I saw in person (and who comes out in long-form interviews) when hes at a podium or on stage. That Ted Cruz is great. He was clear, sensible, sane, and dare I say it Reaganesque. The Ted Cruz I saw could beat that shrill, bitter incompetent crook the Dems are in the process of anointing.
Now, the path is hard, and the map daunting, but the polling against the Hilldebeast is solid and establishment is coming around. Cruz has the best team in the business nobody ever really expected it to be down to a two-man race right now except Team Ted. I think hes going to win the nomination, Karl Roves insane idea about a White Knight squish parachuting in notwithstanding, and in the general, a good portion of the remaining Trump fans will come home. Most of Trumps supporters are decent Americans infuriated by an establishment that ignored, lied to, and abused them. If they want to cause the GOPe some real pain, Teds the guy, and many of them will see that.
But what of Trump? Hell go back to his tacky tower muttering about how Ted Cruz unfairly beat him with a combination of using the rules and not being an idiot. Good riddance, future footnote.
By the way, Ill offer any mainstream media reporter a shiny quarter to ask The Donald what NATO stands for.
You said Cruz’s legal work was meaningless. I proved otherwise since gun rights appear to matter to you now.
The office Trump is running for is the executive branch not the legislative branch. Cruz has never been an executive. Trump has been one for 4 decades.
You were trying to insult him for using first person pronouns when expressing his personal opinion.
The state Supreme Court order Thursday upheld a lower-court judge's decision to dismiss the case.
A Pittsburgh resident and registered Republican voter, Carmon Elliott, had argued that Cruz isn't eligible to run for president or to appear on Pennsylvania's April 26 primary ballot because he was born in Canada.
Commonwealth Court Judge Dan Pellegrini ruled March 11 that common law precedent and statutory history maintain that an eligible candidate includes any person born to an American citizen, regardless of where.
Elliott had acknowledged that Cruz's mother was born in the United States and has been a U.S. citizen her whole life.
Trump also shows a lack of character in his petty lies and fabrications. I mean saying that he didn’t have any idea who David Duke was?
We have moved past reconciliation. We haved moved on to divorce and the day it is final.
Rush should ask himself the same question.
There are tons of people who don’t know who Duke is and don’t care who Duke is.
Because he is nothing.
The lies are just too many to chase them all down.
Trump’s fortune did not come from his father. Contrary to Mitt’s lie, Trump’s BUSINESS was not inherited from his father, either.
Cruz is a liar. He has performed a public service: exposing many other liars—Steve Deace, Andrew Klavan, Ben Shapiro, everybody at National Review, etc.
Trump is hardly my idol...But feel free to elaborate what I’m thinking since you like to make up sh*t.
Cruz has ZERO credentials.... he is as light on credentials as Obama was 8 years ago...
No-one is on the Republican side is perfect.... but you are not only defined by your friends but more so by your enemies.....
Trumps enemies is the GOP establishment which I depise.... Cruz’s new friends is the GOP establishment....
Vote for Cruz...vote with the establishment.... enjoy your vote....
I have found rush to be very supporting of both Trump and Cruz. He also is not afraid to chastise either when he thinks they step where they should not.
Trumpy doesn’t have game. That’s why he won’t win a brokered convention. Trumpy is just a blowhard. Being a blowhard is an attractive thing to some people, but it’s not what I call having “game” in a political arena.
Didn’t prove anything....I hire attorney’s all the time, they argue my interests....
It was his job as Texas Solicitor General...
He had no choice... he’s a great attorney...but the story ends there....
Cruz is even worse. Has no real world experience. Has always collected a government paycheck, government benefits, part of the establishment and whether he succeeds or fails there are no consequences. Terrible game.
Don’t like the 2nd amendment huh?
Little Mr. Sphincter is a moron, who is brain dead, stupid, overtly emotional, and the usual anti-Trump girly-man.
If neither candidate gets 1,237 Cruz will win the nomination. That’s because he has “game” and is playing it by all of the rules. Trumpy is just doing his blowhard threat about running 3rd party. That is not having “game”... that’s just called running a bluff.
“His worst trouble is being dominionist. Thats a recipe for big spiritual trouble. Pride goeth before destruction, etc.”
Where does that leave Trump, the poster boy for egomania?
It’s so bad he names every new endeavor after himself...
At least Cruz is consistently coherent.
LOSE AND SNOOZE WITH CRUZ.
This is why I deleted my Townhall.com and Hotair.com bookmarks and have never obliged them since.
