The thing about politicians and businesses, is that if you don’t get the politicians on your side, your competition will get them on his side, with the competitive goal of getting you at a regulatory disadvantage. This is why so many businesses are forced to pour millions into the political coffers, self preservation.

Politicians then use their loot to buy elections via name recognition, that is saturate the media with their name.

This is a vicious cycle. Trump knows what is going on, because that is the way things are done. Trump is about breaking this cycle. This is what upsets the Republican establishment.

And you have evidence of this how.? His word? Lol, good luck with that.

Anyone who has bought political influence could also sell it.

Why does this sound eerily like Gore skirting campaign finance laws and then blaming the lack of strict campaign finance laws?

So what you’re saying is if you want to be really, really rich, get yourself some hot wives, own some politicians, get invited to all the good parties, then you simply buy them, like you do the presidency. Sorry, I Know a lot of successful business people and none of them buy politicians.

I don’t know when, but it was announced today that he was going to give a speech or announcement tomorrow, and supposedly, it is to lay out the case against Trump from the GOPe perspective.

Romney is an enigmatic douchebag ...

He may be the only living man to truly embarrass
a sitting President, when in the first debate,
he revealed the Mau Mau Emperor had no clothes.
Nothing would ever be the same for Bobo again ...

Then just two weeks later, Romney really drove the blade home
at the Alfred E. Smith Dinner, with Mitt (literally)
channeling Dennis Miller -- "so little time,
so much to redistribute" --
and for the briefest of moments
Romney pulled off the double-down by appearing
resoundingly presidential while simultaneously
making Bobo look small. Like Curious George small.
Like the gofer who should be fetching Bill Clinton his coffee...

But of course, as enjoyable as it was obvious, Romney was completely oblivious to the fact that his success in shaming Barack in those two precious weeks in October 2012 merely reinforced his "47%" unelectability, as proven in the month to come...

Now, 4 years later, Romney cannot wait to piss away the singular distinction of having brought Obama to heel. I should not be surprised and yet I am. I ask myself, is it a Mormon thing? Beck has this same predilection. Or is it a money thing? WTF makes these people publically implode with utter predictabilty?

This is from 2012 and is a fairly standard introduction of someone who has just endorsed you. This is not news let along breaking news.

I enjoyed the comment, but I only remember debate #1 and the death glazes he got and the smug smile on his face at the end.

Then debate #3 where the media lead by Candy Crawly deceptively interjected itself and decided to redefine what was fact and what was fiction.

“So when Trump says: “I’m not going to let people die in our streets because of no healthcare”.

Is that progressive? Moderate? Conservative?”

That’s called being human.

“Still a man hears what he wants to hear, and disregards the rest.”

That line of the song plays in my head daily these days.
