(This was on a thread Trump Fans, Its Time for An Intervention, written by Jonah Goldberg, who got all defensive about Trump AFTER he called Trump a racist failure and Trump called him on it, saying "Im worth a fortune. . . . I went out, I made a fortune, a big fortune, a tremendous fortune . . . bigger than people even understand. . . . Then I get called [a failure] by a guy that cant buy a pair of pants, I get called names?"
Too good!

Conservatives and disillusioned Americans are not flocking to Donald Trump because he will cure what is wrong with the Democrats' governance, they are desperate to find someone as an antidote to elitist, statist one-party rule waxing more intrusive than tyrannical every day. The Republican Party in Washington was given Congress to stop Obama care and, as one FReeper has already observed, gave us Obama trade instead.
The wreckage of the Republican Party is not the work of Donald Trump, it is the work of John Boehner, Mitch McConnell, George Bush and Karl Rove and many others who are considerably wealthier today than when they started.
Jonah Goldberg, where were you when we were being sold out?
Why can’t Jonah Goldberg buy a pair of pants?
I watched part of the Meet the Press panel. They all attacked Trump. The woman, I forget her name, had the last word, paraphrasing: “Well we shouldn’t really be discussing him. It’s up to us journalists to decide who should be the true nominees”
And the Latino woman spoke of him putting down an entire race. Outright lies, he’s said many times he loves Mexicans. Not one word from the panel on illegal criminals.
They are after him full bore.

I disagree with Jonah on the Trump issue, but I can't deny his conservative bona fides.
