Is that all they got?

Deflect from their lack of vision?

Where is their love for America?

I’m sorry you went to all that trouble. Haven’t you been reading the commentators like Kraut, and Will and the rest of them like Sowell and of course many on this forum, who say Trump has no specifics, stands for nothing just bravado, flip flops, that he’s not sincere about wanting to win etc etc. I mean, in short, he’s no Obama, who has given us transparency and specifics.

I supported Rick Perry (big time) until he started attacking Trump and calling him a cancer etc. I knew right then and there that Perry was going down in flames. I no longer want anything to do with Rick Perry. I don’t even care if the lesbian DA sends Perry to jail on “trumped” up charges.

Nikki Haley is another politician who destroyed her career by turning left on social issues. Good riddance to both Perry and Haley. They are establishment weasels.

The difference between Kraut, Will etc and me is...
they get paid by the establishment. I get paid zero.

Linda’s getting out??!?

He failed to do his job. That is to shiphon votes away from the conservative candidate.
The elites miscalculated that this election was going to be business as usual.
Trump through a monkey wrench into the works.:)

I love the way Trump talks.

However, Lindsey, in my mind, has always been a zero.

(So he now knows the future? I remember when he was on “O’Reilly’s show and CNN reported on him as saying “Mexico will pay for the wall because I say so.” CNN, “Donald Trump: Mexico will pay for wall because I say so” But I never knew that not only could he command countries and they would bow and scrape before him, but he knows the future as well!) /s

BTW, Fiorina went after him, and she has went up, up, up.

Yes, I’ve seen what they’ve said and it’s been a real eye-opener for me about just who all of these so-called “conservative pundits” really are. The biggest one is just how really bad FNC is with their “fair and balanced” BS!
Trump has “outed” all of them! What a bonus for us all.

Wayne Allyn Root wrote a great piece on Town Hall outlining what should be Trump’s “Great 8” that he should promote as his agenda to win the presidency. Below are the bullet points...

1. I will build a wall
2. I will be the JOBS president
3. I will repeal and replace Obamacare
4. I will give people a Reagan-esque low flat tax for individuals and corporations
5. I will cancel every single regulation imposed by Obama and Bush- we’ll go back to Clinton levels
6. I will make people on welfare of any kind WORK.
7. I will hold our government accountable.
8. “I will always support Israel and I will cancel the Iran Treaty. Period.”

End of story.

Lindsey was very popular back during the Clinton impeachment, in fact that lead him to a Senate seat. I like to remind people of that when the start with the
