The GOPe is laid bare. They are no better than the Democrats on immigration. For whatever reasons, both parties want open borders at the expense of Americans. Many of us are sick of it!
2 thumbs up!

But he still has every right to criticize and ridicule a man who
gets up every morning and goes to work in the real world.
They all need thier a##es handed to them bring them all to the shed
The Democrats don’t have anything...
Nobody plays dirty politics like a woman scorned either. Hillary was played quite well by Limbaugh in 2008. Lots of conservatives switched parties in the primaries to vote for her at the urging of Rush.
Enter Trump stage left with a vitriolic conservative sounding message. The goal is to split the Republican base and it is frightening that so many just don’t see it.
Trump is going to pull away votes, conservatives will be disappointed...AGAIN. How many will stay home and not vote this time because of this game from Trump?
Hillary wins.
I woke up a long time ago. I have no illusions about the The Stupid Party. Trump has started something the The Gutless Party won’t be able to contain. I love seeing them squirm, and the longer Trump is around the more they will have to address how they have failed to articulate any goals as a supposed opposition to Democrats.
So you think Trump can ride this thing to the White House as a Republican?
I’m not going to buy the spoiler routine again. The ‘base’ is already split - very distinctly, irreparably IMO.
To the extent that it forces the large slate of candidates to jump off this fake “immigration reform” fence and call the illegal alien spade a spade is a good thing, IMO.
He isn’t fooling me as a conservative, nor as a serious candidate. Pull votes away? From who? Bush in Iowa or NH or SC? Walker? Cruz? He’s not changed my mind about Cruz a single bit. Regardless of Trump, the RINO GOPe poweratti are committed to make Bush the candidate and HE is the enemy here.
Trump is mowing down all the tall grass the GOPe likes to hide in.
Exactly why I want him in the news cycle 24/7 for the next 15 months.
Exactly. Jeb must be stopped at all costs.
“I won’t vote for Trump for President, but I love how he’s beating the establishment senseless.”........
At this time, I too would not vote for Trump. Then again, what to do when it becomes Hitlary or Trump? Decisions, decisions. Would you rather have a confirmed liar or someone who isn’t afraid to tell it like it is? Guess I’d have to go for Trump then, we’ve had enough of the demodummies and certainly enough of Hitlary.
What really worries me if it becomes Bush or Hitlary, if that happens the voters have a REALLY BIG PROBLEM.
Do you really disagree with that statement? Seems self-evident to me.
Sure Trump can win the Presidency unless he gets disgusted and drops out.
You better believe Tokyo Rove and his RINOs are looking high and low for dirt and mud to fling. Dittos for Hill and Bill.
I don’t object to Trump’s speaking the truth, which he recently (sorta) has.
I do, however, object to pretty much everything else about the man, as Jonah lays out so clearly.
The Devil can quote Scripture, and a blind squirrel finds a nut every so often. That doesn’t mean we should elect the Devil or the squirrel President.
Especially when there is pretty much zero evidence that Trump really believes what he is now saying, or indeed that he really believes anything except that Trump is wonderful.
>>>So Jonah Goldberg comes up with this jive. Pathetic!
His career was built and is sustained by him being a “likeable” conservative. Not being able to buy a pair of pants is in fact something that would further endear Goldberg to his liberal friends.
I would like to think you are right that he can win as a Republican, but my fear is that his ego, and the highly-skilled ability of the Republicans to self-immolate might push Trump to go 3rd Party, at which point we can all start practicing saying, “Madame President” ...
Especially when there is pretty much zero evidence that any politician really believes what he is now saying....
Yes every one of them.
And he has the $$$ to launch a 3rd Party campaign - he's already flirted with the Reform Party.
".....The Reform Party's presidential candidate for the 2000 election was due federal matching funds of $12.5 million, based on Perot's 8% showing in 1996. Early on, there was a failed effort to draft Ron Paul.
Donald Trump entered the race briefly, giving television interviews outlining his platform. Trump was progressive on social issues, and supported allowing openly gay soldiers in the military, saying: "it would not disturb me." Trump considered himself a conservative, but criticized Pat Buchanan, saying: "I'm on the conservative side, but Buchanan is Attila the Hun." He withdrew from the race citing the party's infighting, as did Jesse Ventura and the Minnesota Reform Party.".....
You think Trump cares about you?
Would you go over the ridge with this guy?
