Cruz opposes the violent rioters half heartedly at best.
These are some of the same crowd we saw at Ferguson.
Yet Cruz insisted and continues to insist that Trump standing up to them with rhetoric caused them to become violent.
Ted became my preferred candidate after Walker turned amnesty pimp. Now I don’t want him on the ticket even as VP.
Ted brought that change about.
The MSM “spin” no longer works like it used to work.
Guys like Trump who had to collect rent on his dad’s apartments in Brooklyn and Queens as a kid aren’t afraid of a bunch of lefties.
Always nice to see a few Mexican flags carried by the protesters. We’ve seen protests before...this isn’t 1968.
Losers lose. Pack up the kids and go home, get a job and definitely get off the drugs.
I truly fear for the Trump family’s lives. I hope to God the Secret Service are doing their jobs.
Me too, and Mr. Trump has kept his own security team, too.
I hope that the pendulum swing is worthy of a Poe story, myself.
On CNN last night, Bob Beckel made the point to some progressive that scenes like the Utah street show only helped Trump.
Anti-Trump nag Margaret Hoover woefully agreed with Beckel, citing the 22% number. She said that seeing the reporting that she expected Trump to enter the convention with a clear majority. I thought she was going to cry on national TV.
The interesting thing about that hghly otganized riot at the UI Circle campus was when Trump booked this thing rhere in the first place. Did he book it there, actually believing he was going ro draw the crossovers he was claiming that he is attracting . Students and Quote hispancis un quote from the nearby Pilsen neighborhood area, Easy access to get to this rally ?
The way Trump initially reacted should have been direct attacks at the group organizing this and immediately claim it a freedom of speech on college campus issue when he cancelled the meet. Which is what is really going on all over the US and a very very serious issue. But he did not. He blew it becasuse he saw as a personal rejection .
So why did he book it there ? Was he expecting this not to happen and did he experience rejection about those crossover claims as a douse of reality set him aback into exiting the issue and walking off the stage .
Had he had made it a freedom of speech on college campus issue when he had this opportunity; Full support from everybody and an important issue brought to the forefront.Instead .Warranted criticism of his comfrontational style of conduct would not have even appeared until later, drifted into center stage.
Unfortunately there have been dozens of times where he has had these opportunitys to bring out these issues but he simply does not think in conservative terms nor know what they are.
Such as
Policy wise Trumps revealing exchange with campaign disrupter and un official spokesman for the Mexican government Jorge Ramos (Univision). who has dual citizenship, which should have but did not, show any conviction on his pronouuncements about Mexico and its relationship with US.
Here Trump could have demanded to know from him If he believes Mexico has legitimate claim to American territory ,as well as bring up Mexican treatment of illegals. Then ask why should the US permit land ownership when legal American retirees cannot own land in their own name or vote there.Then boot his buttocks out of there.
Instead what does he do ? Kisses up to him and lets him go .
The way the Mexicans are treating Americans reciprocity should be the issue and would dump the quote hispanic unquote (actually a strawman) krap being passed on as a generic hispanic issue. When actually it is problems created by the Mexican government which have gone unchallanged.
Then there is the issue where some UK politicians along with Islamists wanted to prevent Donald Trump from even visiting Britan .
Here he would have been saluted if he did this. Used the Brits expression to those phoneys; To Piss off, and WISE UP, pointing out the problems they are having there and chiding them for refusing to face reality.
Instead what did he do ? Threatens economic retailiation on a project golf course he has in Scotland.
Trump has had these opportunitys to bring out these issues up but he simply does not think in conservative or national issue level and demonstrates no conviction about them nor seems to know what they are.
Trump is a good man and has a lot of shorcommings like everyone. Alas,honestly and sadly the way he looks at and confronts these issues is a worrysome indication he is not the man for this job.
Their very objective is placing cannon fodder in their front line to take a pounding... avidly waiting to produce video portraying them as victims.
Infiltrate and sabotage from the inside would be more effective.
