Ping!
So called pundits start out with the premise that you must protect the establishment.
It’s real simple.
We want the invasion stopped.
Donald Trump stepped up and said he would.
Yes he’s pretty spot on. I for one will be thankful for March 15th to come and go so Trump will be the obvious winner of the primary and we can move on. I’m sick of it. I want to get on to general election campaign.
How? They tell everyone how it wifi be, but never listen to the American voters.
Is there any doubt left that the Republican Party and its media lackeys have been stage managed by forces and factions that spit upon the founding principles of this nation. Oligarchs - America’s aristocracy, American’s monarchy, unmerited power derived from birthright- not ability or intelligence or ethical standards. A state of mind governed by the accumulation of wealth and control of human destinies with allegiance to no nation, no people, no history, no tradition other than the exercise of dominion over the minds of otherwise free and unfettered beings. Now it is their time to watch America rise up in defiance standing shoulder to shoulder against the very evils that our Founding Fathers warned us against in word and deed. Sons of Liberty, grab your manhood and advance upon the forces of Ultimate Stupidity.
Trump wins open primaries/caucuses, where Democrats can cross-over and vote. So far, there have been four closed elections: the Iowa caucus, the Nevada caucus, the Oklahoma primary and the Alaska caucus. Cruz won three out of four.
Tomorrow (March 5) there are four Republican primaries/caucuses: Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana and Maine. All are closed. After tomorrow, we should have a better idea whether Trump is the Republican choice or just the cross-over Democrat choice.
By the way, so far Trump has won 46% of the delegates that have been awarded. To get the nomination, he has to win at least 50%. If Trump continues the same “winning streak,” he will not get the nomination and it will go to the convention to decide, where all bets will be off.
It is because most of them are paid performers that we are expected to mimic.
The list of “experts,” “analysts,” self-appointed “strategists” and other know-it-alls who were wrong about Donald Trump is a long one, and nobody is as ignorant of why the Donald has had such an appeal and such staying power as the pundit who is paid to know everything, and never does.
Trump is like non-man made climate change. It’s inevitable. Adjust and adapt. Repub better embrace him, because you know good and well the Demos will if the party power brokers won’t.
One of the great pleasures of life is reading Wes Pruden’s columns.
the chattering class
Trump has focused in on the anger and frustration and provided not only an outlet...but provided an individual who is willing to get in the face of the MSM and the GOPe, to be completely politically incorrect to them, and who then says the very things that the frustrated electorate wants done.
This is resulting in a phenomenal attraction to Trump...and not just from the frustrated GOP voters. it is now extending to independents and even democrats who are also sick of the political establishment and who all want someone to go into that establishment and kick the house down.
They believe Trump is a person who will actually not just talk about it...but will go in and do it.
He is crass. He is irreverent. he is often prfane.
But everyone knows that already.
Romney knew it when he accepted his endorsement in 2012...and he knew it when he attacked him yesterday.
The people who want the country back and want the political establishment put in its place...and more likely run out of town on a rail...do not care about those things. detractors cannot use them against Trump.
The crass nature, the irreverence, and the profane nature of Trump all adds to the conviction that his supporters have that he will actually do the things he says.
This is the answer to what s happening.
It is too late for the GOPe or the MSM to stop the resulting tsunami during the GOP Primaries.
The establishment and politically correct MSM operative (which are what they are, passing themselves off as journalists...which they are not), are simply incapable of understanding this.
I personally believe it is also far too late for the DNC to do anything about it.
During the campaign for the general election, they will try to do the same types of things the GOPe and the MSM are doing. In fact, they will double down on it, particularly the Clinton machine.
It will not matter.
More and more democrats will join the tsunami.
The DNC will also be washed aside in this flood.
If it continues as it is now, Trump will likely win in a landslide...and these same prognosticators will be shaking their heads wondering what happened...just like the did when Ronald Reagan, whom they viewed as an ignorant, old, right wing, class-b actor, swept into the White House on a landslide...and then won a second term on an even bigger one.
I am a Ted Cruz supporter. I wish he could win the nomination and the Presidency. I believe he would be rock solid as a conservative and in support of the constitution.
But what I described above is the reality...and I do not believe any candidate, any "party" or any media outlet can stop it.
We simply have to do what we can for America, we have to pray (and fast) in beseeching God in Heaven to turn it for good.
And I think it can most definitely do so.
If Trump will do the things he has promised:
Then American in fact will turn around and have the chance to become great again.
Anyhow, those are my feelings on it.
That is a question we often hear when the voting public proves the pollsters, media pundits and political professionals wrong. After all they know better. They are the political bretheren of climate change "scientists".
....for at least 25 yrs whenever a poll was taken about illegals, 70% of respondents across party lines and indies...70% said they wanted the border closed AND SECURED. Now the same azzholes STILL don’t get it, still want to stuff their pockets with cash and screw the American citizen.
Not one of them has ever interviewed a voter on the street in Yuma Arizona, Binger Oklahoma or Havre Montana. As a matter of fact, I doubt they could find states like Nebraska, Kansas or North Dakota on a map with out the aid of a consultant.
Instead these elites go to their private clubs and talk to their fellow snobs who also know it al, about how ignorant Trump's supporters are. Meanwhile, flyover country is ready to revolt and these jerks think it is time for obummer's third term because unemployment is at 4.9%.
They ignored the obvious: Trump got more media coverage than all the other candidates in both parties. They may have criticized him, but ONLY in the way his campaign wanted to be criticized. If you look, the media was much tougher on Hillary than Trump, which is an amazing thing.
