The GOPe is owned and controlled by the professional political class - consultants...

Consultants focus test - then tell politicians what they can say.

They've focus tested Trump's speeches. Now his words can be put into brain-dead idiots who are easy to elect and easier to control. Frank Luntz was on FOX tonight diagnosing Trump's speech... what people liked - what they didn't like... Expect brain-dead pols to be imitating Trump shortly...

That's the problem - it's one reason we're in the mess. Puppets saying 'the right words' ...

Trump's a threat to political professionals - - if he wins other competent citizens will run. Not as puppets of political consultants - but as their own men...

What's the difference?

In today's market the political consultant calls who he'll represent. If a citizen goes to a consultant - AND has too much passion (like an Abraham Lincoln) the consultant says, "Nope, don't want to represent you'.

The consultant's looking for someone who looks good on TV, comes across as likable, and doesn't rock the boat. Also someone who takes direction easily, does what he's told, and is willing to buy tons of TV ads in Florida. Consultants get a cut of money spent on political ads.

Consultants put focus tested words in the mouths of 'sociopath-lite types and THAT'S how we elect people who say the right things but NEVER DO ANYTHING.

Trump will replace that dead weight system with competent people who will accomplish things - and really could save the country.

That's the threat - it's a big one...

That's why the political class hates Trump.

[Expect brain-dead pols to be imitating Trump shortly..]

Pray for freedom loving conservatives to know the difference.

I think that is at least in part why.

I think it’s ingrained in them to fear another Ronald Reagan.

These are die-hard globalist socialists.

They realized Reagan would set back their plans for a decade or more.

Now Trump will do it again. He’s not interested in selling out the United States “brand” to anyone.
