Dang. I was just about to post this.

More:

“Example #1 – Last night a report from the Daily Mail outlined a scandalous claim, a lawsuit. Only there’s a problem. The person (claimant) doesn’t exist. The lawsuit was self-filed. No attorney was used, referenced or mentioned. The entity filing it listed an abandoned address. The accompanying telephone number is non existent. No-one, including the FBI who hold custody of all associated records, has ever heard of this person or anyone outlined in the aforementioned article. This article updates today with a litany of corrections, qualifiers, and walk-backs. The re-write doesn’t even bear the slightest resemblance to the original construct. It disappears and reappears – loin cloth.

So how does this happen? No, not how does the lawsuit appear, that’s easy – anyone can walk into any courthouse and file a civil lawsuit. No, how does a mainstream media publication end up putting themselves so far out on ungrounded and completely fabricated construct?

Think.”

Biggest threat is to the cheap foreign labor and cheap foreign goods express.

It's not just the presidential race that all this applies to. A couple of years ago when I was writing a cheque to the campaign of our local U.S. congressman, it occurred to me that if you take the amount of money at stake, as mentioned in the article, and divide by the number of U.S. senators and representatives, you get billions of dollars per candidate. It is worth the while of the interests mentioned to spend "billions and billions" (pronounce like Carl Sagan) to get each congressman elected who will do what they want.

Have you seen the little piggies
Crawling in the dirt?
And for all the little piggies
Life is getting worse
Always having dirt to play around in

Have you seen the bigger piggies
In their starched white shirts?
You will find the bigger piggies
Stirring up the dirt
Always have clean shirts to play around in

In their styes with all their backing
They don’t care what goes on around
In their eyes there’s something lacking
What they need’s a damn good whacking

Everywhere there’s lots of piggies
Living piggy lives
You can see them out for dinner
With their piggy wives
Clutching forks and knives to eat their bacon

Mr. Mabelkitty and I figured this out.
Mitt Romney, with spittle flying from the corners of his mouth, looked like a man about to lose hundreds of millions of dollars when he oddly condemned his friend Donald Trump, without having any real information to back it up.

Clinton also looked appropriately freaked out when Sanders started to get traction. Like she was on the hook to some very scary people if she wasn’t in the White House to pay them back for their ‘donations’ to the Clinton Family Foundation.

A billion seconds ago it was still 1959.

Nope.

A billion seconds ago it was the Reagan administration.

There are trillions of dollars at stake. The financial (Wall Street) bets on the international global trade and finance sectors are in the tens of trillions. More modestly, the downstream beneficiaries within the campaign consulting industry itself are worth more than several billion per election cycle.

Candidate Donald Trump is a risk to all of these enterprises – All.Of.Them.

I'm for Trump because I believe he's proposing common-sense solutions to the issues I deem most important-immigration, Islamic terror, and globalization. I disagree with Trump that tariffs and other punitive measures are the answer to jobs going off shore. I have followed Conservative Treehouse since the marvelous work Sundance did with the Zimmerman/Trayvon hoax. The statement from Sundance's article above I take issue with.

Even though he opposes TPP, I don't think Trump is a threat to the established order. Not the Wall-Street-DC-Brussels-Hong Kong alliance, and certainly not the Karl Roves of the world.

The person that would be a threat to all of the above would be running on a platform of term limits and elimination of the progressive income tax. Trump is doing neither, and I don't see that person anywhere.

It's the people voting for Trump that's the threat to the above interests. I have no delusions that Trump will fix everything, he's a step in a process that COULD end up with someone who would advocate, and credibly sell term limits, and the elimination of the progressive income tax. That's the person whose life will be in constant danger.

Even with Trump, it's going to be business as usual until these two things are dealt with. Sundance has been so right, on so much, but is over-rating Trump a bit, IMHO. We Trumpeters need to temper our expectations a bit, until he makes a move on term limits and the progressive income tax, I don't see it happening.

I have moved to Trump; although he is a wildcard, I believe he is for USA. The establishment isn’t.
Long live the republic.
