Breitbart.com ^ | October 20, 2015 | Jeff Poor

On Tuesday’s “New Day” on CNN, Republican presidential front-runner defended his response aimed at his GOP opponent former Gov. Jeb Bush (R-FL), who had claimed in a debate earlier this month that the country was kept safe under former President George W. Bush.

so why didn’t it work for your favorites, Mitt and McCain? They too ran against Bush How the fuk did that work out?????

You're starting to lose your mind. Mitt and McCain ran against the Bush legacy? It was Obama that did, and won. I think you're getting confused here.

I love it when little folks like you step in way over your head, and then step all over your own d*ck - making MY POINT FOR ME...yes, Obama did run against Bush, but so did Mitt and so did McCain...and the idiocy is, they could NEVER run against Bush the way a leftist can. And neither can Trump or ANY REPUBLICAN. I've been widely published on this and in fact my piece led off Rush's show the day after Obama's first election.....you are so far over your element here dude.

Your argument is that Trump cannot win except by running as a true believing Republican. There is no one who would confuse Trump as a Romney or a McCain. This does not help you in the least.

Do you always come off unhinged in your writings? I would hope not.

I don’t know the exact definition of truther but as far as having advance warning that the twin towers would be attacked, I don’t believe for one second that they had no warning. The reason I don’t believe it is that I read the warning that was on the internet well before it actually happened. When it happened I took it as fullfillment of the warning which said that Osama Bin Laden had been planning such an attack. As to who actually did what I don’t know, I simply refuse to place any confidence in the official version of anything any longer, it might be true or it might not.

Interesting comment, I have thrown aluminum soft drink cans into a campfire and watched them melt but they did not burn. How hot a fire does it take to make it burn?

“Why not move on to the Clinton administration and how they were culpable?”

Biding his time. Waiting to see what happens with the Hillary campaign. Waiting until the opportune moment to strike. If Hillary falls out Trump may not want to be seen as the person who took her out. Trump is playing what seems to be a brand new game to many today but is probably, in the final analysis, just a revival of old time politics that no one is old enough to remember.

I’m not sure I have the answer to your question, but I know once you get it going, it burns at almost 7000 degrees.

ORLY?

How am I on a Trump cult path by agreeing with the truth he told about the Bushes?

Truth is truth. Scotty. It doesn’t matter who says it.

9/11 happened on Bush’s watch.

Bush did not keep us safe. 3,000 of us died 9 months into his first term. That’s dead, bro. Burned and crushed.

Dispute those facts, Scott. Go ahead, I dare you.

And I’ll add this fact.

George Bush lied 16 days later and told us that islam is peace.

It does matter if you don’t like the messenger. It doesn’t matter if you don’t like Trump, and it doesn’t matter that you don’t like me.

The truth is the truth.

Time to face reality.

I never said GWB was faultless, but the planning for 9/11 came during the administration of Trump’s friend Bill Clinton. But The Beloved Donald would never provide a level of cogency to his argument by criticizing HIM.

Now, I’m done with you. Go worship your cult leader.

I have.

I have said that GWB isn’t responsible for the attacks, even if he could have taken better measures against such, he isn’t responsible, the ones who did it are. And Clinton isn’t responsible for them either. The ones who did it are.

And as far as you being done with me...

F*** you very much, GOPE boy.

That’s not my argument, but that’s not surprising. Your reading comprehension is very third grade. Running as a traditional Republican is not the answer, nor is running on liberal talking points. You have presented a false choice, which is what those folks over their head normally do...to try and change the subject.

You must run as an unabashed conservative Republican to win.....and that means properly assigning Clinton, Jamie Gorelick, etc, for their massive roles in both 9-11 and the crash. You should write me a check for how much teaching I’ve done to you.

He may not be a “conservative” however you define that term. He is however an optimistic American who is patriotic and conservative enough for me. His support is broad and deep and he will win.

Well, that's a reasonable analysis. I think it's flawed, but it is at least reasonable. Now the flaws? Mainly, that he is no conservative with how that term is properly defined....ie....limited government and maximum liberty and love and respect for the Constitution and the belief in the American people, NOT AN AMERICAN NEGOTIATOR HERO. He just isn't. It's not "my" definition or any other person's definition...it is what conservatism is.

The other thing that will come back to bite you...is that at some point...he is going to demonstrate in a way that even you can't overcome that he is NOT conservative enough. It may be today. It may be part of this 9-11 thing. It may be in a debate. Or hell, it may not be until he's gotten the nomination, or even own the White House. But mark my words, at some point, his liberalism is going to boomerang bigtime on all his conservative supporters.

Having said that, I think he's a patriot, altho I think he's more about Trump than America, but I won't quibble. I agree that his support is broad and deep. He may win.

how do you possibly exonerate Clinton given the Jamie Gorelick appointment and his refusal to take bin Laden out in the 90s????? I mean, is your man love of Donaldus Loudmoutheus so tenuous that you have to arrest your own thinking process?

Maybe, but I take the long view. Right now the game is rigged and the left is incrementally moving forward with their agenda - unchecked by the GOP. They have been castrated.

Donald has a big set of brass balls and will move the lines back to the right. The country is ready for it. How far will that go? I don’t know, but it will be a needed change.

Conservatism is great, but insisting on purity and trying to get it all at once is a losing venture, imo. I’ll take the populist approach of making America great again for now. Nobody is offering a suitable alternative at the moment. Just a bunch of tilting at windmills.

I agree with all of that, except that lame point about ‘purity’ - this is not about purity. DT is way the hell to the left of purity.....Kelo, Fannie, Freddie, health care, and on and on.

Your points have been very reasoned today, please don’t lower yourself to the group that insists everyone not kneeling in front of Donald is an establishment dweeb and using the purity test false equivalency.

I kneel in front of no man, but the establishment can seriously go fsck themselves, as can the ideology pimps.

Trump can win and win big. That is the most important thing. A MANDATE.
