Ahhh. More “concern” by the journal of record for the gop establishment. What would we do without their wise and selfless counsels!

Donald Trump’s Appeal—and Its Limits

I'm sure Peggy is hoping against hope that Trump's appeal has limits that would be acceptable to her.

What’s ruining the GOP brand is their refusal to do anything to secure the border and enforce the laws. The citizens are completely fed up with the illegal alien inundation.

Well Peggy, I guess programming your no matter what voters to accept a liberal probably wasn’t so great an idea in retrospect was it.

Put some ice on it Girl. It’s the lesser evil you always wanted.

The status quo of open border and bending over for Obama has worked wonders for the country... (obvious sarcasm)

I wonder if Trump will listen to his buddy Michael Savage to leave Peggy alone.

http://www.mofopolitics.com/2014/10/18/michael-savage-cant-quite-bring-himself-to-insult-peggy-noonan/

” You know, she’s a classy lady. And she writes these dignified, middle-of-the-road Republican columns.

She’s the kind of girl that wears white gloves to bed. She’s the kind of girl in a plead skirt that went to private school that your momma would’ve liked you to date, but she’d have nothing to do with you.

We all love her to death, but [her columns] have no impact whatsoever. “

Laura Ingraham was a breath of fresh air on the Special Report panel yesterday. She really let Lane have it.

Her take on Trump is spot on. His popularity is the result of extreme disappointment in the GOP after the landslide wins given them after they ran on the same issues Trump is bringing to the forefront.

It’s pretty clear to me that no one read the article....while Noonan chimes in with some predictable estab clap trap, more than half the article is positive about Trump, and she is accurate in her positive comments.

But on FR, it’s more fun to see a headline and just dive in ignorantly....

That is rich! Peggy Noonan accusing someone else of being ‘unstable’.

Does Mr. Trump ruin the Republican brand?

Oh you mean the “brand” that lost to incompetents/evils Carter, Clinton and Obama? Five times?

That “brand”?

The limits of Trump's appeal?

It seems that the more people get to see and hear the Jebster, the lower his numbers go. And the other dwarfs who slandered Trump aren't doing any better.

I began reading this without taking note of the writer. Back in the Reagan days I had special regard for conservative ladies such as Maggie Thatcher, Jean Kirkpatrick and Peggy Noonan. The Noonan part faded away as she became more and more inane and screwball in her writings.

As I read farther into this article and had increasing indigestion rising in my throat from some of the assinine statements I finally shouted, “Who wrote this stupid crap, anyhow,” and scrolled up to look.

I might have known; Peggy Noonan!

You can bet Nooner is a big fan of the Donald. Wonder if she has ever voted for a Repub including Reagan.

Peggy Noonan, who I used to really like (it's been a long time), is a Washington insider, and the idea that someone from the outside could make the insiders irrelevant is absolutely unappealing to her and all those who have spent a huge chunk of their lives becoming accepted into the club.

Why publish the links if we can’t read the article?

Ms. Noonan should know all about how appeal has its limits. Her own appeal ran out back in 2007. Buzz-off Peggy....

Oh crikes! Peggy “Blanche Dubois” Noonan who swooned over Barack Obama in 2008.

Say what you will about Peggy Noonan, it's true. She is a "squish" and is one of Establishment's loudest voices.

However, she is a very good observer of people and politics and she can write. And she absolutely defines Donald Trump here ... why he is striking a chord in this election (for the good) and why he is not a conservative and has NO real chance at being elected POTUS. And that he is only about Donald.

My hope is that he changes the conversation of the GOP primary, shows the gOp that you win by fighting, not compromising, but that he ultimately bows out for a Cruz (or Walker) who can win.

When he doesn't get the gop nomination, IF he goes rogue third party ... it's welcome ... Madame President H.
