LOL, yep, trying to take Trump out is like trying to take down a high brick wall with a toothpick.
I understand why. It’s because they are stupid and live in the past. They are the “get off my lawn” type of conservatives who would let the world burn before they’d give up one of their 1988-style worldviews.
Any Republican could have beaten Trump back in August, if they had been man enough to do it. But, they all sat back and waited for him to self-destruct, as their handlers told them he would. The handlers were wrong and the candidates’ instincts were wrong. If they couldn’t detect the anger in the GOP base, then how clueless would they be as president?
Obama has been hugely effective at getting his agenda shoved down the throats of the American people because political handlers underestimate him, we try to pretend that he’s incompetent, and he talks to his base.
This is 2016. That’s what works in the USA today. It wouldn’t have worked in 1988 and hopefully it won’t work in 2032, but right now, it is what works and Trump knows how to work it.
Your guy isn’t being beaten. He gave up 5 months ago and thought he’d cruise to an easy win and took too long to get in the game. Five months ago, he was my guy too and when Trump started talking, I’d yell at the TV for someone else to jump up and be the better communicator with the better ideas and to understand what makes us mad as hell. He failed. He kept mumbling and whining, pretending that his God Cred would propel him to the WH. Somewhere between August and now, he became the Baptist Mitt Romney—a guy who thought he deserved it and didn’t want to ruffle his dress by fighting for it.
Have a Super Tuesday!
One must question the mental status of anyone making such an utterly facile statement. Berniebots are 40% of Cankle's must-have electorate.
Trump for President.
They all schooled at the knee of Peretz and Kristol and daddy Podhertz
Amongst others.....non Jewish as well
Hell the Bush dynasty....fairly patrician WASP is a benchmark of neoconservatism
Israel first....cool...I’m typically with that
Social issues not so important....cause many are former Dems
Nation Building.....no Tks unless you’ve destroyed the enemy in total war first like 1945
Fiscal restraint.....they are not good at it because they believe in the good of the govt arm
Neocons are basically Rockefeller GOP bred with 70s Democrats who left after their youthful stint with McGovern Carter and Mondale as the party went and stayed left
Krauthammer is like their sage....a culture lib
All those grinning elites need to be lamp-posted.
Although I agree with the first statement, the second, petty follow up is a clumsy attempt to tar Trump with the Shrillary brush, the weapon of the Clinton Criminal Enterprises, Inc.
The Clinton huge enemies Database would make Nixon's enemy's list look like a pie baking stay at home housewife's shopping list.
“neutrality in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, “
The Jew-hater sides with the terrorists.
Having spent many hours doing just that, my uncertainty is in crowded company from the extreme left to the extreme right. I am in unexpected company with all sorts of weirdos.
But I can say the same here in FR, too.
Lying, adulterous, draft-dodger? You mean Limbaugh? Can’t be, you didn’t say “drug addict”.
You sound like you're kinda stuck there, Skippy...
Sunshine is elusive and may or may not be found here ...

I wouldn't go that far; yet.
A slick duplicitous sociopath, perhaps.
All conservatives should be at war with Trump being that he is the most liberal candidate on the GOP side.
I’m tired of liberal republicans: Dole, Bush, McCain, Romney and now Trump.
smirk
thanks for admitting you know
and limbaugh aint running, the lying adulterous draft dodger trump is
So what do the chicken hawks propose to do? Whack DT with their manpurses?
