Bush insists Trump won't get nomination
The Hill ^ | 12/06/15 11:15 AM EST | Peter Schroeder

Posted on 12/06/2015 10:28:30 AM PST by Olog-hai

Jeb Bush was definitive Sunday in predicting that there is no way Donald Trump wins the GOP presidential nomination.

The former Florida governor, who is trying to rejuvenate his own presidential campaign, dismissed Trump as "not a serious candidate," while trying to explain the businessman's lingering popularity at the top of GOP primary polls. ...

Is that why Bush wrote that letter to Sirhan’s parole board?

When Trump wins the nomination, will you please take that “normalcy bias” talk and file it away.

Trump has three times the polling figures of his nearest competitor. Even the cheaters can’t pull this one off.

Trump is going to be the next president, and there’s nothing they can do about it.

Bush is an idiot and has no say in the matter.

Nevermind. You'll never see it. Another fatal case of Normalcy Bias.

A whole lot of people have gotten mighty comfortable with those GOPe blinders, haven't they?

Makes it easy to press the "R" lever in the voting booth, I guess...

Someone on FB posted a picture of an Indian saying, “the two parties are wings of the same bird” or something like that. It is true. There seems to be no difference in them.

I know for a fact that a conservative is not going to win if they don’t have a hopeful, optimistic message....So, we need a squishy doom and gloom same as always message from you, you traitor to America? Get lost. Even your mother knows you are a loser.

Bush insists Trump won’t get nomination.....He may be right but neither will he be nominated. I used to tolerate Jeb, but the more I hear from or about him the more he gets on my nerves. He is sounding more and more like a spoiled brat. I want it, I want it, I just got to have it.

Jeb! will never get the nod. Trump may not be president—but it aint going to be Rubio, or Carley. Maybe Ted Cruz.

If you do not think we have already been 'fundamentally transformed' into some kind of a Fascist/Socialist "mobocracy" that gave power to a dictatorship - then you are indeed infected with a fatal case of Normalcy bias. We are certainly no longer a Republic. Levin calls it Ameritopia.

If Trump "wins" the nomination - and isn't sabotaged, assassinated or other untoward Cook County device intended to ensure only the Ruling Class maintains seats of power - I will be wholly, and utterly surprised, in the pleasant sense.

If Trump actually "wins" the presidency, I will be even more surprised. But one man and one election is not going to turn this collapsing Republic around. It's a bottom-up thing that begins with a culture we have totally lost.

American Conservatives need to start breeding like rabbits, because both parties are effectively replacing all of us citizens with third world squatters, and it is a case of simple math. The aliens already here are outbreeding Americans 10 to 1. A civilization has to have a 2.1% birthrate per family to maintain a civilization.

We've fallen to 1.9%, yet our population itself has exploded over the last 30 years due to the importation of aliens that have no intention to assimilate, and those aliens are outbreeding white Americans, not to mention the millions more Obama and both parties intend to bring in here.

If the RNC and GOPe take extreme measures to overturn the primaries, they will destroy the primary process forevermore.

I would like to see a massive class-action lawsuit against the RNC by legitimate primary donors for the other candidates, claiming they were defrauded of their donations by the ex post facto manipulations of the RNC. They should demand punative damages because they unknowingly spent their money on a rigged game while being told all along that it was a fair process as demonstrated by the series of debates.

Why make the other candidates go through the charade and ask for campaign donations if the winner was decided in advance? Overturning the primary results at the convention will do more to destroy the political process than anything that Obama has done, because it will be a massive disenfranchisement of the American voter on a scale never seen before.

I am reposting a post of mine from October 2014.


So what happened in 2012?

Colorado went 51%-47% for Obama. Denver alone voted 209,759 to 69,755. In a city the size of Denver (pop. 634,265), Romney could only manage less than 70,000 votes?

9 Electoral votes for Obama from a difference of 137,948 votes.

Florida went 50%-49% for Obama. A squeaker. The vote difference was 74,309. Think about all the polling irregularities we heard from Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties, with Republican poll-watchers being kicked out for two hours until the police forced Democrats to let them back in. The vote difference in those three counties alone was 574,033.

29 Electoral votes for Obama from a 74,309 vote difference.

Iowa went 52%-46% for Obama from a 91,927 vote difference. Johnson county had a difference of 26,534 votes, and Linn county had a difference of 20,601 votes. That's half of the state differential right there.

6 Electoral votes for Obama from a 91,927 vote difference.

Virginia went 51%-48% for Obama from a difference of 149,298 votes. Fairfax county had a difference of 87,049 votes. Prince William county had a difference of 28,790 votes. Newport News had a difference of 23,766 votes. Hampton county had a difference of 32,540 votes. These are the heavy blue counties, and they overwhelm the rest of the state.

13 Electoral votes for Obama from 149,298 votes.

Add Ohio's 18 electoral votes from a 166,214 vote difference that came from Cuyahoga county, and it's clear that the election was decided by 1,193,729 suspicious votes from targeted counties in targeted states.


A candidate only has to target a few precincts in a few states to swing an election. Gore came close to pulling it off too, with the Florida State Supreme Court's help.

In this cycle forever is meaningless. The Democrats and the Mohos are playing for ALL the marbles this time. If we let the Republicans engineer us a loss there will not be another opportunity, not a political one.
