Univision's Attack on Donald Trump Backfires
http://newsbusters.org ^ | 6/29/2015 | Jeffrey Lord

Posted on 06/29/2015 9:33:43 AM PDT by dragnet2

The scene comes to mind with the news that Univision has abruptly told Donald Trump that they will no longer carry the Trump-owned Miss Universe pageant. Why? It seems that the network is displeased that in his announcement speech.

And while all this was going on? Univision anchorman Jorge Ramos sent a handwritten note to Trump asking - yes - for an interview. Or in other words? We’re going to break your contract and call you a racist but would you like to sit down for a chat?

So. As a result of Univision’s decidedly unthought-through stab at partisan politics they received in return

1) a lawsuit for breach of contract over the cancellation of the Miss Universe Pageant;

2) a lawsuit for defamation (the poster comparing Trump to the racist killer in Charleston;

3) its executives have been booted from the Trump golf course; 4) a once convivial agreement on building a gate between neighboring properties has been ordered closed;

5) there is now a demand for the resignation of the executive who posted the defaming poster;

6) the private letter revealing anchorman Ramos to be beseeching Trump for an interview has been publicly released; and…and 6;) Trump has received a boatload of priceless publicity that appears as his numbers surge in the polls.

I could care less what you or anyone think of me. Lets get that out on the table.

It’s a FACT that Coulter turned on a dime with Romney after trashing him for years.

It’s a fact that Romney was pro illegal as he got caught twice with them in his own house. Illegally employing them. Twice.

It is a fact that the woman who wrote a book about illegals being the end of America fawns over him’.

Deal with each of those facts and not my ego. Because I assure you, me ego is so awesome in size you can’t grasp it.

But I don’t need it to discuss FACTS.

Of that there is no dispute.

Are you going to deal with the facts I posted or just continue projecting the personal thing?

Norm, I’m sorry, you are not the issue here.

Illegal immigration is.

Go on with your personal attacks on others. Perhaps some day you can land a show on MSNBC.

Well then address why your hero is supporting a man that is 100% pro illegal.

And BTW, it wasn’t me that brought up my ego or rah rah’d others to keep it going Plato.

And it’s Ironic that the guy bitching about personal attacks is making them. “Anti Socrates” indeed. Practice what you preach lib.

Your posts are all about you, norm, and needlessly argumentative and weakly insulting, and I add, humorless as well.

So, here (again) are your choices:

a) Cave to your inner 8th grade juvenile-girly self and continue to make it all about you and engage in snark, or. . .
b) Be an adult and give it up, as all that has been said has been said...

Be an adult or be a snarky juvenile 8th grade girl. . .the choice is yours.

I'm betting an adult beverage you can't help it, that you will opt for "a" because, well, you can't control yourself. . .the fault of your (admittedly) massive ego.

Prove me right by choosing “a”. . .or prove me wrong by choosing “b”

Off you enjoy life...give it a try, norm, might improve your dour mind.

Its amazing how many times I posted the same facts and yet you seem to have expended lots of effort ignoring them and making it about me. Ten bitching about ‘me’ making it about me. Thats called ‘projection’ lib. Look it up.

Well perhaps you’ll step up and do that. Because no one else wants to address the actual facts.

So school us.

“When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser.” —Socrates

Norman, why so angry and confrontational with most on this board?

Our new biggest, bestest buddy, Sergeant “Big Toe” Hulka (and others) were only expressing opinions and concerns about the upcoming elections...e.g., that Freepers should not be absolute purists when choosing a candidate, then pick up their marbles and go home if Ted Cruz or the Donald misses the GOP nomination. BTW, I like Cruz!

As for the delectable Ms. Coulter, I too was perplexed that she became smitten with Mittens! However, given how the 2012 GOP primary field unfolded, Romney stood the best chance of winning and might have won had he played to win. The same might be said of Insane McCain, who also observed the Marquess of Queensbury rules! . Either of those men, while not perfectly Conservative, were preferable to the current POTUS.

Can you imagine the state of the country and the world today with imperfect GOP governance in place of Odumbo’s narcissistic tyranny over the past 7 years? No Obamacare debacle, no ultra-liberal rug munchers nominated to the SCOTUS, a more stable Iraq and Middle East, the Iranian Mullahs put in their place, no welcoming signals sent to Mexico and Central America for massive illegal immigration....the list of potential better outcomes is long my friend!

So Norm, it’s OK to advocate, but don’t walk away with those marbles, be happy that we have several good options in 2016!

Most? No. People that refuse to deal with facts and make excuses for liberalism? Yup.

Why is it not one of you addressed the facts I posted?

Norman, are these your facts?
____________________________________________________________________________
I could care less what you or anyone think of me. Lets get that out on the table.

It’s a FACT that Coulter turned on a dime with Romney after trashing him for years.

It’s a fact that Romney was pro illegal as he got caught twice with them in his own house. Illegally employing them. Twice.

It is a fact that the woman who wrote a book about illegals being the end of America fawns over him’.

Deal with each of those facts and not my ego. Because I assure you, me ego is so awesome in size you can’t grasp it.

But I don’t need it to discuss FACTS.
____________________________________________________________________________

Let me attempt to address your posted facts...Norman...

1. I respect and care about you Norm and your opinions, misguided as they might be.

2. Yes, Ms. Coulter was a convert to Romney, because she felt he had the best chance to replace Odumbo with a Pubbie POTUS. Did you vote for Mittens, or did you stay home and play with your marbles because Santorum or Bachmann failed to get the nomination?

3. Every 2 weeks, a housecleaning company run by white American citizens sends a crew of 3 women to clean my home. Only 1 speaks English. Are they illegals? I don’t know or care. They work hard and do a good job for a fair price. Does using this cleaning service, make me “pro-illegal”? I don’t think so! It’s well documented that Romney “hired” a landscaping company which employed some illegals. Mitt has a net worth of at least $250M...I doubt that he was paying any attention to which lawn service that was hired let alone the status of a few workers.

4. Your logic: Romney hires a landscape service that employs illegals. Coulter writes a book calling out illegals. Therefore, Coulter should call out (and not support) Romney as he is obviously pro-illegal. But, instead she fawns over Mittens! Just maybe, Ann likes the cut of his Mormon jib! ;-) Or, is it possible she wanted the best hope in 2012 to put the Bamster on the unemployment line?

5. I believe the “Big Toe” has been the most articulate about the size of your massive ego! I’ll add that I have to pass on the opportunity to grasp your massive ego (or your marbles for that matter). However, I’d like to know how you type such voluminous vitriol on this site with only one hand? Just a joke Norman...relax!

Nothing but excuses and justifications.

But at least you tried that before making it about me.

I will applaud Ann Coulter for bringing illegal immigration to the front burner. It’s a big problem.

Of course, Liberals don’t see it that way. They are finding every way to degrade her and her argument. Funny that some of them claim to be conservatives.

Rush Limbaugh calls them Seminar Callers.
