Clinton allies preparing for Trump nomination, fall campaign
Washington Post ^ | Feb. 28, 2016 | Ken Thomas and Lisa Lerer | AP

Posted on 02/28/2016 11:26:28 AM PST by Innovative

Emboldened by her South Carolina landslide, Hillary Clinton is shifting her focus to Republican front-runner Donald Trump as her party seeks consensus on the best ways to challenge the billionaire’s unpredictable nature in a general election.

Among the likely options: Questioning Trump's qualifications and temperament to be president, scrutinizing his business practices and bankruptcy filings, and re-airing his inflammatory statements about women and minorities who will be central to the Democrats' efforts in November.

>>>Imagine what’s going to happen when she’s the only one on his radar.

Imagine what’s going to happen when he’s the one in the line of fire. Sexist, racist, hypocrite, blowhard con-artist bully.

Trump is the liberal’s dream opponent.

>>>Trump will point out that she is totally for sale

Trump is for sale too. Give him government favoritism and he’ll give you money. By his own admission.

Government corruption requires two people in the deal.

Trump is the only one who will attack her. Cruz would only attack intellectually no brawling. Rubio would not only not attack, he will backpedal and disavow his Trump-like comments in Iowa. She will steamroll Rubio.

That's why Rubio has been anointed as "electable". It's shorthand for "won't attack and will be attacked on inexperience, etc"

Trump is the only one who will tell the truth about 30 years of Clinton scandals.

Trump is amazingly adept at digging up the truth on people like her. And he's not afraid to tell the ugly truth about her. What will be most amusing is the howls from the media. I am really really looking forward to that.

If it’s a question of Trump vs. Hillary, both would be disastrous. I’d be working against the policies of either.

Strong words to be coming from the Great Enabler, who was busy dragging $100 bills through trailer parks evert time Bill got into another Bimbo Eruption. Or maybe she just wanted to talk to them to find out what it was like.

I just have to point out the clear misunderstanding you are posting. Trump’s position on government favoritism has applied to the middle class. He is even willing to allow the wealthy to pay higher taxes when a flat tax would be fairer. But Trump is after jobs for Americans, not things for Trump. If he were in this for himself, he could take money from every establishment source, but he is not.

You could not be more wrong, or misguided.

That’s right. Trump’s the lawnmower, her *** is grass.
The Cubans are too polite, nice boys but not keepers yet.

Trump will need all the help he can get. Are you sure that pissing off 50% of the Republican party is the way to get that?

Trump’s the only one she can beat.
Yet no Republican is beating Trump, makes perfect sense.

I wonder what wonderland you live in.

Do you have garbage pickup?

Do you go to the grocery store?

Does UPS deliver to your house?

Google Waste Management and unions.

Google UPS and unions.

So when you pay your garbage pickup bill, you are doing business with the mafia.

UPS is cursed with the Teamsters. If you don't think the Teamsters are run by the rackets, look up Jimmy Hoffa, who I suspect was long gone before you were born.

So when you pay UPS to ship to or from you, you are paying a company who then pays their employees who then pay their union dues....and you are an evil person for doing business with the rackets.

Most of the big trucks are driven by Teamsters.

The docks are unionized and it is well known the mob, whether mafia or otherwise, infest the dock workers.

So when you buy a T-shirt make in China, you are subsidizing the mob at the dock and the Teamsters as well.

So in short, you are living in a dream world when you criticize a guy who is totally dependent on the building trade unions, the cement manufacturers, the electrical and plumbing unions, the city and county bureaucrats who have to inspect and license every single move....

Wake up and join the world.

Admit that you are exactly like Trump, a scumbug who is a bad guy because he spends money that goes to the mob eventually.

I should mention that Jim Bakker is not the only con man that hid/hides behind his religion.

But Trump is after jobs for Americans

His trade policy would tank the economy.

Raise prices, lower standard of living, dramatically increase cost of goods and services, fewer exports.

Like the USA did for the years it lived on tariffs, of course.

And Trump's wife said he raped her. He's fowl-mouthed women in general and is on his third trophy wife.

Don't think Hillary and her lapdogs in the media won't come after him.

The math is simple. A plurality of GOP primary voters is not enough to win. He's not winning a majority of the GOP vote and his negatives are the highest among all candidates in a general election.
