Trump is NOT the Uniparty.

While I am a Cruz supporter and not in favor of Trump, the options were are, in this order:

Uniparty or Not?

Trump or Cruz?

The key to this election is the defeat of the Uniparty. Everything we hold dear as conservatives is attacked and undermined by the Uniparty. To ever defeat the Uniparty, we must first defeat them within the Republican Party.

Trump does that. It may be ugly. It may be populism. It may be unpredictable. Trump may gore our ox 50% of the time, and the other guy’s ox 50% of the time.

But the Uniparty is killing us 100% of the time.

So quit thinking Trump is the end of the world. He is a half-measure when we’ve currently got nothing.

He just needs the same 50.1% of the electorate that voted for George W. Bush in 2004.

Leftists are still suffering butt-hurt over George W. Bush ... and he wasn't even particularly conservative.

Isara, I can understand when you bring out “conservative” objections to Donald Trump, even if I don’t agree with all or even most of their gloom and doom.

But now you’re dragging in (illiberal) liberals. Why???

With Trump in the White House, a Republican-controlled Congress would be able to pass into law any legislation it wants:

And just what sort of legislation do you suppose the turtle-faced bastard from Kentucky and the two-faced bastard from Wisconsin would like to pass?

Trump says a lot of things that sound good and in an an aggressive manner. I, however, recall the “bait and switch” sales technique of Trump University and wonder how much of such a sales strategy is there in the Trump campaign promises. There are better choices in the field of candidates.

Ut occurred to me this morning that the chaos he has caused in this election is what we can look forward to for 4 - 8 years if Trump is elected. I don’t care that he says make America great again, this is not about America. It is about him.

Today marks the birth of the “Blond Ape Party” (probably to be renamed later) as Trump takes his ball and starts another game in direct competition to the party that he swore allegiance to.

The career politicians STILL do not understand, the vast hard working middle class is finally AWAKE. There is no one sleeping at the Trump rallies. The enthusiasm is record breaking! When $505,000,000,000 is stolen by China every year from our country, is it any wonder middle class factory jobs have disappeared?

The people are FINALLY recognizing that the career politicians are in the pockets of their ultra-rich donors and will continue to push the cheap labor express, by exporting factories to cheaper labor countries AND importing cheap foreign labor.

Path to Legal Status for Illegals

Cheap Foreign Workers on H1-B visa

Pushing TPP

Pushing import of Syrian Refugees:

With Trump in the White House, a Republican-controlled Congress would be able to pass into law any legislation it wants: Abolishing departments, ending environmental protection, re-instituting torture, sending troops against ISIS, banning Muslims from U.S. entry and observing Muslim citizens, establishing Trump's Deportation Force, building the boondoggle of a "big, beautiful wall" while attempting to coerce an ally into paying for it.

Run away!

Maybe he’s learned something, if the way Trump University students learned isn’t so good. He did eventually close it down. His success was a success of personality and that can’t be taught in a classroom.

More like - Hey America, you are rushing into the arms of a big government liberal. Once again.

It isn't. And look how well having a rank amateur in the Oval Office has worked over the last 8 years. So why would we want four or eight more?

"Trump the rank amateur"

LOL!

It was amusing last night watching Trump and Bill O'Really? do "The Bear and The Rabbit In The Woods" last night.

Trump was the Bear, and O'Reilly was the Rabbit.

A bear had to take an 0bama, so he went into the woods. As chance would have it, he found a rabbit doing the same thing. Squatting beside the rabbit, the bear asked, "Say, do you have trouble with 0bama sticking to your fur?" The rabbit finished up and shook his head, "None whatsoever." Nodding, the bear completed his own chore. "That's good," he growled, and, grabbing the bunny, used him to wipe his posterior.
Sic Semper O'Reilly
