These Trump fawners are reminding me of the Obama ones and it is starting to worry me.

You know the ol saying, threes a charm........may be a harbinger, good or bad.

Interesting, a Walker hit piece promoting Trump by the lefty Politico’s Katie Glueck. Whenever I see this kind of stuff comming from the left no matter who they promote I allways ask; What are they up to ?

“a lot of the campaign Schwarzenegger ran in California.”

I’ve read this before and see only one similarity, i.e., they both are celebrities. They achieved their successes differently.

We were living in CA, and registered Republicans, during the whole Schwarzenegger - Davis mess. I figured that anyone who married into the Kennedy family had serious discernment flaws so I didn’t vote for Ah-nold. He was (still another) disappointment.

I like Trump, but I don’t think he’s a strong conservative. But we’ve voted in alleged strong conservatives before, and they haven’t done the right thing. Might as well take a chance with someone new. And it seems that in the past Trump has done exactly what he’s said he would do. It seems that he likes a good fight, and he must win every fight. It doesn’t really matter, though; the dems will cheat on a grand scale this time so the fix is already in.

Agreed. I’m only 28, but I’m a student of history. I think politico tab a sorry a couple weeks back trying to find comparisons in American history to this. Of course they spoke to a bunch of radical professors from Georgetown and Yale and all those places. They brought out the usual suspects... Perot, Wallace, Hearst. I really think this is a unique man. He’s a marketing genius that has spent decades infusing himself into pop culture. I think he’s always had an itch to run, but he has been waiting for the right opportunity. Of the past election cycles, he seemed to pick the right message for the right year.

Anyway, this article is fantastic. Poor Walker. When you’ve got people drowning out your speech with “we want Trump”, that’s got to sting.

I was so hoping Trump would run in the last election. It was just too early for it all to come together in the perfect storm to save our Free Republic. Go Trump Go!

You think plumbers and electrician unions in NYC were and are bad? Try the restaurant unions! My husband negotiated contracts with them for 22 years and they were the most dysfunctional crazy people he had ever met. You couldn’t even fire a waiter who once dropped his drawers on a diner he didn’t like. Oh, how I loathe NY unions!

They worked with all unions. The housing units his dad built after WWII had groceries ,restaurants, cleaners etc. — a small village with everything you need.
I think there are several restaurants in Trump Tower

“Trump gave Walker the “nice” tag.”

Also known as a ‘left-handed compliment.’

We were trying to get Trump into the last NY Governor race- The same thing would have happened and he could have been the ONLY candidate running for president now (and saved himself a ton of money)

If you are only 28 then FR is a good place to be, for a student of history. You dont have to research to find out what happened under Reagan or Clinton or Carter- just ASK one of us

I remember each president since Kennedy was killed

“Well I think Gov. Walker’s a nice man,” Trump said, when asked why he thought Walker had fallen in Iowa. “I know it’s a big tumble, but he’s certainly a nice man, I respect him, I like him.”


Good thing for Trump to say. mainly because it’s probably true.
