Why? Because the RNC RINO scummers keep kicking the base in the crotch and helping the Democrats.

I truly, honestly, and with all my heart and mind think Donald Trump’s most ardent supporters are making a yuuuuuuge mistake.

The only mistake is being made by those who criticize Trump without addressing the substance of his statements. Could it be preconceived notions?

Trump can be "neutralized" in a heart beat if other candidates would address the issues as plainly as Trump does. Otherwise there is no competition.

The people of this country are being run over and ignored by both parties. People being ignored are those being hurt by criminals who move through lax borders. People being ignored are the legal immigrants who are being hurt by criminals who repeatedly are deported and return to sanctuary cities to commit more crimes.

Whenever the other candidates connect the dots and respond to the will of the people, there will be second thoughts. Otherwise, Trump is the only game in town! Our country continues to be humiliated by bad trade deals and lip service to border security.

Illegal immigration is the issue of our time and no other candidate will take a meaningful stand.

Yes, the GOPe has frittered it all away with their double speak, pandering, sleaze, and it has caught up with them. Voters are going to roll with Trump. ... Too early for a thread like this. Time to snooze....

Me too! Let the RINOs squirm and bleat like sheep about to be sheared. The more I hear their objections to Trump, the more I like him. Such as Jonah calling Trump a conman? Then what does he call those RINO pukes and sellouts in DC? Like John Boehner and Mitch McConnell? These critters are Republican success stories. They are at the top of the Republican food chain. They lied about doing something about Obama care and lots more lies and cons.

Can we like what Trump is saying on immigration without planning to vote for him? I think so. Is it possible to appreciate the way he’s exposed the Democrats and many Republicans as treacherous amnesty shills? He seems to be doing an excellent job of that.

The GOPe is laid bare. They are no better than the Democrats on immigration. For whatever reasons, both parties want open borders at the expense of Americans. Many of us are sick of it!

Fan also stands for Fantastic, as in fantastic someone finally had the courage to say seal the border, stop the mass immigration insanity.

I posted that we would be able to tell what Trump is up to a week ago if he took advantage of the breach he created in the enemedia/Rat defenses and quickly turned to peel the enemedia cover off the Rats. Still waiting. Chump. Not The Man. Either he knows not his enemy nor himself or he is not what he wishes us to believe he is. The opportunity of a lifetime squandered on yet ANOTHER narcissist. Now because of the utter failure of our political leaders there will be “politics by other means”.

“The wreckage of the Republican Party is not the work of Donald Trump, it is the work of John Boehner, Mitch McConnell, George Bush and Karl Rove and many others who are considerably wealthier today than when they started.”

WELL SAID SIR!!!
And Worth Repeating!

Exactly! Its a running gag line. We used to do this as boys. Some kid who hit a crucial double or scored with a beautiful girl got to brag and joke about it for weeks. It never bothered anyone. We would find ways to denigrate his successes. Its back and forth chatter and trash talking. All in fun though sometimes you would get into a fist fight if it went to far.

I won’t be voting for Trump, so the rest of what Goldberg has to say is foolish at best. Has any of these Washington “fall in line” writers done anything other than attack the messenger? No! It’s the message that Trump is putting out that the “fall in line” DC-er’s can’t, or won’t, fathom.

Jonah is right, of course. But I don’t care at this point. Trumps utility is that he will force The Gutless Party to take a stand, and in my dreams, eloquently articulate why Trump is right about immigration but fundamentally wrong as someone we need to put in the White House.

A guy can dream ... its really about all we have left at this point.

George Washington was perhaps the wealthiest man in Virginia.

The Republican party is not a tool for conservative ends. Wake up.

Jonah, if “anger is not an argument”, then explain how the Left has been wildly successful exploiting and employing it for generations.

Yes, but his wealth didn’t come from insider trading and lobbyist bribes.

The author is an idiot, a non-success and a fool who cannot afford new trousers but presumes to rag on Trump being a billionaire conman

Where is Johna Goldberg a raging success? Within the RINO slanted bubble world of The National Review
