The coming Donald Trump implosion — don’t blink
The Washington Times ^ | 20 Jul 15 | James Curl

Posted on 07/20/2015 3:58:01 AM PDT by elhombrelibre

ANALYSIS/OPINION:

Which of these Donald Trump headlines is false?

(1) Trump Mocks Vietnam War POW John McCain for Being Captured

(2) Trump Tells Iowa Dairy Farmers He Has Cows 500 Times Bigger Than Theirs

(3) Trump Hate-Tweets Magician Penn Jillette at 3 a.m.

It could be any of those because The Donald is capable of anything (for the record, it’s number 2). Here’s a wonderful excerpt from The Onion story under that headline: “Your cows are small and scrawny, and you should be embarrassed to milk them,” said Trump, adding that each of his cows was the size of “at least” a dozen Cadillacs and had “udders that’ll make your head spin.” “No one raises dairy cows as gigantic or successful as I do; everyone knows that. My cattle are winners, and you people would be lucky to have them graze here.”

“God bless you, dearest flaglady.

You’re posts are accurate and superbly written.

You’ve also exhibited the patience of Job.”

Thank you for your kind words. As to you’re (heh heh) boo boo, I do those bloopers all the time when tired, and sometimes even when I’m not tired, lol. When I start making a lot of them, then I know it’s time to tear myself away from the computer and hit the sack. GO TRUMP!

Matt Walsh isn't Glenn Beck. Trump has voted for so many Democrats and put so much money in their pockets to get them elected that I cannot understand why he's fooling so many conservatives. He's a fraud and a poseur with simple answer to just a couple of questions and no answer to most questions. And he won't be able to run the government the way he runs his businesses because: a) the founding fathers built checks and balances into the system to slow the process down, b) despite what he and Obama think the president is not a king, and c) he won't have government to bail out his failed business if he is the president instead of a crony capitalist with great influence bought from Democrats. He's not a real conservative, like Cruz. He doesn't understand how government works. He is, in short, a blowhard.

He and his supporters can attack conservatives who have been conservatives for their whole lives all they want. Trump is new and pretending conservative for his own vanity.

From the article:

“But it doesn’t work in politics and it is particularly ineffective in international affairs — where Trump has aimed so much of his bilious rhetoric over the past month.”

Oh, I see, The politicians have been doing such a great job. Yeah right. I’ll take a businessman for a change of pace, thank you, and the country will end up in much better shape. GO TRUMP!

I must force myself to stay awake until 9:00 PM or I’ll be all screwed up (again).

That’s just a short 4 hours from now. I can do it, provided O’Reilly interests me and Megyn Kelly, too!

Thank you again for your informative posts!

“Attack Juan McCain on his record for illegal aliens, not his honorable service as a Navy fighter pilot.”

Here is part of Juan McCain’s military performance I’ll bet you never heard about:

Did John McCain accidently fire his missile causing the USS Forrestal disaster?

From WIKI Answers:

“No, he didn’t fire the missile, but was responsible. A missile fired from another plane, striking McCain’s aircraft and setting it ablaze.
Something made the plane behind McCain fire a rocket, which hit McCain’s external center fuel tank, and caused a fire. McCain panicked, and dropped two bombs into the fire.

Surviving crewmen of the USS Forrestal and those who investigated the Forrestal fire case reported that McCain deliberately ‘wet-started’ his A-4E Skyhawk to shake up the guy in the F-4 Phantom behind his plane.

‘Wet-starts’, done either deliberately (the starter motor switch allowed kerosene to pool in the engine and give a wet start) or accidentally, shoot a large flame from the tail of the aircraft.’Wet starting’ was a common practice among young ‘hot-dog’ pilots.

In McCain’s case, the ‘wet-start’’cooked off’ and launched the M34 Zuni rocket from the rear F-4 that punctured the Skyhawk’s fuel tank, knocked the M-65 1000 lb bomb off it’s 500 lb rated mount, and touched off the explosions and massive fire.”

"Here is part of Juan McCain’s military performance I’ll bet you never heard about:"

No, its just a story that you are first finding out about flaglady. The Forrestal fire was not caused by McCain.

"A special note is in order here. We have seen some baseless claims that McCain was somehow responsible for the Forrestal disaster. ......while pilots tell us that a “wet start” is possible even without an afterburner, the theory fails for another reason. The tail of McCain's plane was pointed over the side of the carrier and away from other planes at the time, and the F4 Phantom fighter that fired the missile was facing McCain's plane from the opposite side of the deck, as shown in Caiella’s diagram, in other diagrams, and in Navy film of the fire."

Your hate for McCain is amazing. Your ability to attempt to smear his record is laughable. While there are many things that you can critique McCain on, this is not one of them. The simple fact that his career did not end tells you all you need to know about if he was responsible for the Forrestal fire or not.
