Kenny, I just got up ... I haven’t had coffee but I would hope we could be civil on this thread.
I’m gonna criticize Trump because he deserves it but I hope I won’t say anything nasty.
On the other hand, ....
No no no, Massachusetts used to be part of Maine. For obvious reasons, we kicked them out.
You a student of Con-law?
Yeah.
Right.
No proof.
But if throughout this campaign he is being shunned, I strongly believe he’d bring it up. He’s a fighter, and I can’t see him being silent on this issue with all his candor and outspokenness on all the other issues about the campaign.
But I am assuming this. We all debated it over the past few months on this thread, and came to the same general consensus.
I was keeping and posting a spreadsheet of the GOP appearances over the past several months, but haven’t updated recently.
We see that the press DOES have guests on a “rolodex” of sorts that they like to appear continuously. A lot of that is because those guests are going to say something the Left wants to hear, or are easily played, like McCain, Graham, and Kasich. But if a candidate wanted to appear and told them, and they refused, that would be a whole other story. Hopefully worth telling by someone.
Do you have any insight or knowledge about it?
Trump packs from what I was told and son, Eric is an avid hunter. I have only read positive stuff on Donald and the 2nd Adm.
Great analysis by Bray. Trump has vast non theoretical economic and political experience. I love the Jose Wales ferry operator analogy for his business mogul period. Myself and others I talk to are all in for Trump at this point. We believe he is sincere in unwavering defense of the 2nd amendment and in commitment to immediately reversing direction of the executive departments currently driving leftist ideology and social experiments like common core, NASA AGW focus, non enforcement of existing border & immigration laws. I bet even his enemies on the right and left believe he will be the most effective pro America negotiator, they don’t even challenge that. Trump does not pander and shows tremendous grit. I used to be for Ted at first. I hope that others still currently inclined to support Ted, Ben & other candidates can see that their candidate is not going to be able to take them to the promised land and don’t waste their votes. Winning the presidency is not going to be easy. Winning it and being effective, even more difficult. Trump is the only one who has a shot to stop the destruction of America. He knows what is going on and what to do about it. He repeatedly implies at rallies that the apparent incompetence of the administration might be something more than incompetence, but why try to push that. How does that help stop the eventual Dem/Socialist nominee?
Just get some antler seeds and grow your own.
I wish people would stop using that ‘clutching their pearls’ line. It makes me want to clutch my pearls.
I think public discourse by leaders should stay classy.
We have enough rock stars clutching other body parts and spouting profanity.
And Trump was so delighted with the lady, so tickled that she said that because he so wanted to say it but had to stop short.
Frankly, it was a sickening display.
Maybe not. Many people see the Bush's for who they are, globalists. I don't know why Bush went into Iraq but I question his motives on everything.
Re: 911, Bush had warning of an imminent attack, of course not the horror that was to come but enough to have taken it seriously. Not his fault per se but Trump's right in that the towers came down on Bush's watch. The buck stops here has to apply to some of the politicians instead of don't blame me.
George Will needs to get a grip. On-air orgasms are unbecoming. “Finally, finally, yes finally we got him we got him”, followed by heavy breathing. Especially since the female pollster explained afterwards why Trump is doing well and the GOP Establishment still does not understand
I also want to be civil, get some coffee.
LOL - oh yeah, I like that take much better!
That’s all retrospect talk and dissing the Bush’s is not a Republican candidate’s job.
The dems will use it and they should.
I resent it bitterly and Rubio’s very best line which made me like him was when he said, “I think God that George Bush was president when the Towers were hit and not Al Gore.”
Sorry, sincerely disagree. Trump is nothing like the Republicans OR the democrats.
See my number 12 and 148 posts on the subject.
I have no qualms about a presidential campaign. It seems folks seem to find folly in a rough campaigner they aren't for, but enjoy the toughness of the campaigner they ARE for.
If it is a disaster for Trump, it will show in the polls and shortly later the votes.
Time will tell.
My opinion is that of all the candidates running for this office, GOP and dem, Trump has the greatest chance to win.
“No no no, Massachusetts used to be part of Maine. For obvious reasons, we kicked them out.”
What, you did not wish to be called TAXachusetts
“— The court has been political since its inception. —
You a student of Con-law?”
No, but I do know a little bit of history - WORLD history, not just America’s current problems
Bwahahaha!
1820 was a GREAT year!
Dissing Bush's is a candidate's job when running against a whiney Bush who's trying to ride on his brother's coattails. It's Jeb who keeps bringing his family into the mix for exactly this reason, that some will view Trump as attacking the Bush family instead of attacking Jeb's strategy. Typical politician crap that I thought we might be getting past.
