Folks we are at the threshold of a poliitcal revolution that can change the face of the American Republic or, let it continue on as is, into continuing decline and destruction, as has happend to so many great powers of the world of the past, Persia, Greece, Egypt. Rome, etc. It's not as if our nation has not gone through this, already...in our very "own" revolution seeking independence from the British Empire. This was our first great revolution.....led by men & woman of great courage who actually put their lives on the line to gain freedom and liberty for the common man who was being seriously oppressed by the tyrants of the British Empiire.
We only need to look back a bit to see how George Washinton was in dire straits, when he decided to attack Trenton, NJ and, mastered a massive victory over the British. But.....how many Americans today know who Nathanael Greene & Daniel Morgan were. Nathanael Greene became the "favorite" General of George Washington. Greene, a Major General, with no formal military training, having a permanent walking limp, that always kept him dragging his foot as he marched, plotted the two decisive battles of the Revolutionary War. The Battle of Cow Pens (1781), South Carolina & the Battle of Guilford Court House, North Carolina (1781), that ended up forcing Britiish General Cornwallis to flee to Yorktown, Virginia....where Washington & our French allies, defeated th British and ended the Rvolutionary War. Daniel Morgan, a Brigader General under the command of Greene, with little military training, but great fighting experience, pulled out a major victory at the battle of Cow Pens, South Carolina. Morgan's strategic, tactics are still studied in West Point to this very day!!! These folks were the "Outsiders" of their time...just like Donald J. Trump is today......Trump is certainly no politician of rank today.....thank God....but...his patroitic, heart and passion are all for the nation and the all the people of America!!!
Ameica & Americans face a crossroad of destiny, very similar to our forebears, in the American Revolution...Should we just continue down the road the Republican & Democrat Establishment have chosen to chain us with, or should we, once again revive the passion & fervor of our great Republic & change course to a greater political & manifest destiny. Should Wisconsin voters, next Tuesday vote for Ted Cruz....the candidate now bought & owned, wholly by The GOP Establishment losers & weak sisters...or, should they vote for Donald J. Trump & follow the destiny that Washington, Greene, Morgan, etc. gave to us.
Here is a list of Ted Cruz backers you should all study...before you cast your votes next Tuesday: - Mitt Romney - POTUS Loser - John McCain - POTUS Loser - Jeb Bush - POTUS Loser - Rick Perry - POTUS Loser - Cary fiorina - POTUS Loser - Glenn Beck - Failed, Disgraced Talk Show Host - Paul Ryan - The "Obama" Lap Dog - Scott Walker - POTUS Loser
Folks think, long, hard & honestly.....The nation and your future, your children's future depends on the choice you make. I choose Trump...with all his faults, because Trumo has the very fiber of the great leaders, men & women who end up changing the world with great leadrship & direction. Ted Cruz will give you 'ZERO" of that. In fact......Thes GOP (E) folks listed here, will destroy Ted Cruz before he goes anywhere!!!
There are multiple polls showing Trump leading. Check the link.
Cruz is not that Conservative. Being married to Goldman-Sacks, having an Ivy League law degree, working in RINO Bush II's admin and opining for a 300% increase in H-1b visas doee not a conservative make.
I cannot for the life of me understand as to why some seem to think cruz is the way forward.
It is so obvious that he is there for the establishment and to be a spoiler.
He doe snot have the enthusiasm outside his small base, he can’t even won a single county in the swing states of VA. FL, I mean the man is toast, and yet his voters will repeat the establishments talking points, because that is what they want to hear.
I thought after Obama and his cult that we would see people wake up, and yet today it is some on out side who are just as bad today.
What is more disturbing is how they cannot understand how a a vote for cruz is a vote for what the establishment wants, a contested convention.
Once they get their convention you can guarantee that the establishment will stab cruz in the back and then his voters here will be outraged, and cry. They will be shocked, and yet we told them it was they who helped the establishment to do this.
Well they get what they worked for and they have no pity from me.
Our money.
You Trump guys sure know how to shovel the manure. This is a truckload and a half.
If you looked at Cruz’s resume with the name blacked out you it would look EXTREMELY Establishment.
The reason Trumps pisses off the before mentioned is that ACTUALLY he spoke truth about reality!
*****************************************
He’s been lancing a lot of political boils.
That money he gave to politicians is called "protection money." If big businesses do not donate to politicians (of any party), they will destroy the business. It is typical for businesses to give to all top candidates of both parties during an election.
And it is a fact that wheeling and dealing has to happen to get anything done. You are calling it bribery, but it isn't: it is the way things get done, and there seems to be no alternative. Trump knows how to negotiate and he has a solid record of negotiation. Cruz has very little record at all of getting things done, and it seems he supports amnesty, and the ill-named "immigration reform" aka opening the border.
If you don't like the system, supporting the candidate who was cut out of the same cloth as those who created the system is hardly the way to get it dismantled. The only way to do that is to get a smart outsider, who is tough and can stand up to the entrenched powers that be.
Everybody else in the country donates to politicians, but Donald Trump is special: when he donates, it's suddenly called bribery.
I guess we're lucky that Trump has stopped bribing politicians.
If only Ted Cruz would stop accepting bribes!
That's right, folks! These wealthy donors pouring money into the Cruz campaign (with the help of squeaky clean Neil Bush, of course) are bribing Ted Cruz.
Yep! Ted Cruz is open for business: his Presidential campaign is currently accepting bribes, just like his Senatorial campaign did.
Meanwhile, Donald Trump can't be bribed...
Trump can win New York State - Cruz can't. NY is a Democrat gimme in most elections. But to have to work and possibly lose NY this time would be a blow to Dems with lasting effects.
Trump can win New Jersey. Cruz can't.
Trump can win Pennsylvania - there are reports of 100,000 PA Democrats switching to Repubs so they can vote for Trump. PA is coal country. PA will not support Cruz.
Same for Michigan, possibly Ohio.
His “art of the deal” has always HAD to include greasing the hands of pols to get projects done. Always. He knows this the way to be. It is among his first principles in operating his empire. That’s how he knows so many people abroad. Does it benefit others at times? I’m sure. Does it benefit the Donald ALWAYS? You betcha!
Now, once he gets to Washington, where the intractable forces of special interests are running wild—what is he going to do, abandon his first principle? Not likely. The same tit-for-tat operation will continue. It will benefit Americans somewhat (of that I have no doubt), it will continue to line the pockets of the entrenched (are they leaving once he gets elected?), and it will continue the charade of American governance. No constitutional republic. No limited government. Just more oligarchical governance. The ruling class will rule on, of which he is an admitted big-time player.
the better term for the money to politicians is grease. Grease makes the wheels go round. Trump is a New Yorker where tips are actually grease
It took a whole 8 mins for the Cruzers to jump on this thread. They must be getting over-confident. Usually, they are here 24/7/365.
I think the GOPe will get more than they bargained for with Ted!. For some reason he has conned good men into thinking he is on their side, and he’s conned the GOPe into believing he is controllable, all while being probably the least forthright politician I have ever seen in my life!
Alarm bells should be going off in everyone’s heads with this one, people! I see no evidence to conclude that this man can effectively govern, so you have to ask yourself, what has he shown an aptitude for? Other than to be a con-man?!
You know darned well that if Cruz should get the nomination, it will be no different than McCain, Romney, Dole--etc. The media will turn against him (and he still has not denied the Nat'l Enquirer allegations, so there is ammunition to attack), and he will turn out to be just another lawyer, measuring every word he says in a calculation to avoid "offending" those the media says will be offended.
Trump is a breath of fresh air. Not a lawyer, not the establishment. He says what he thinks. And it's harder for the media to dig up dirt about him or trash his image, because, unlike most politicians, he is very public and people know who he is.
Vote for Trump, warts and all...
There can be no serious possibility of Cruz defeating Hillary. She will pound him into a pulp. He is predictable and easily manipulated. The sheer malicious nature of the Clinton campaign will destroy Cruz.
Trump will fight back hard. It is this very specific characteristic of his candidacy that has vast swaths of the electorate coming to his support.
Voting for Trump, warts and all!
