I love it: Donald Trumps campaign reveals the establishment for what it is, a swamp of corruption as fetid as those of Latin America. It is better entertainment than Vaudeville. The frantic scramble to rig the primaries, change the rules, and thwart the votersanything to defend their cozy entanglement of political tapewormsmakes absurd any pretense of democracy.
This morning in the Drudge Report: Trump Highest Number of Republican Voters in History. Who do the Republicans want to get rid of? Trump.
On the same page a poll reports Trump tied with Hillary nationally. Who do the Republicans want to get rid of? Guess.
Its wonderful. The GOP is looking for someone that Hillary can beat. She would squash Kasich or Cruz like stepping on bugs. Trump might actually win. This the Republicans strive to avoid. What could make more sense?
But it does make sense. The Republicans try desperately to ditch the only Republican candidate who could win the Presidency because Hillary is one of them. Because, as every sentient being has by now noticed, the Republicans and Democrats are members of the same corrupt club of blood-sucking parasites, the action arm of the corporations, Wall Street, the Israeli lobby, and those who want the US to control the world at any costexcept, of course, to them. They are panicked at the rise of someone who might put first the interests of America. Better Hillary, a fellow parasite, than Trump, who isnt.
The latest skullduggery is the Virginia governors allowing convicted felons to vote. The obvious intention is to increase the black vote for Hillary. In Chicago, the dead vote. In Virginia, the killers. This sort of thing of course explains the support for Trump.
Will the two parties succeed in blocking the Donald? Might they even resort to the Martin Luther King solution? My powers of political prognostication would be under zero if they could figure out how to get there. If the felony vote and delegate-tampering bring Trump to the convention with only 1236 delegates, and the Republicans broker-in some sad-sack compliant loser, well, the mask will be definitively, openly, for all time off. Welcome to Paraguay.
Which would be only another step in the countrys race toward the Third World.
What would the public do if Trump were robbed of the nomination? What could the public do? There might be protests, mass demonstrations in the streets, but so what? The Insiders Club would just wait them out. Once a society realizes that it has no power over its rulers, it lapses into resignation. Republicans do not loot malls or burn cities, and would soon go home. But all the world would see that the Americans have no recourse, that the Insiders do as they please. Welcome to China.
But the mask would be forever off. Very, very off.
If the Republicans deep-six Trump, and Hillary runs against Kasich, or or Cruz, or some other derelict, what then? Our choices will be not to vote, which will make no difference, to vote for either of the party candidates, which will make no difference, or to vote for Trump if he runs as a third party, which will make no difference. But at least we will have seen under the log, the squishy pale creatures scurrying. They will keep their grip on the country, but the world will know them for what they are.
And America for what it is: Corrupt to the roots of its teeth. The corruption is adroitly hidden, yes, or disguised as something else. Yet it is there. Consider the subprime disaster. To believe that it was an accident, or a cyclical downturn, or other artifact of econobabble, one has to believe that bankers, realtors, and Wall Street do not understand mortgages, credit, or defaults. You have to believe that officials of the Treasury, who slide back and forth between Wall Street and government like the motion of the tides, had no idea what was going on.
At the top, America is as corrupt as Mexico but American corruption is far more efficient. Among the white middle class, the rot is less. But within the clubhouse of insiders, at the level of the anointed, of the Adelsons and Epsteins and Clintons and Bushes, there is putrefaction most foul.
It is cleverly done, and seldom involves anything so sordid as open bribery. Yet the results are everywhere. Men who knew exactly what they were doing engineered the student-loan bubble. Yet it is legal, like so many scams. Huge military contracts for things not needed, the near-control of Mid-Eastern policy by Israel, poor medical care at high prices, the deliberate gutting of American industry so that corporations can enrich themselves in Chinaall of this is legal. You pay Congress and it makes legal anything you want.
Credit cards, which intentionally lure people into going deeply in debt and paying usurious interest rates, are legal. Big Pharma paid Congress to rule that Medicare cannot negotiate the price of drugs, opening a sluice to the Treasury. Corruption, but legal.
Under the rule of the Insiders Club, medical care is a fecund source of legal graft. Example: I once needed eye drops from Bausch and Lomb called Muro, which amounted to hypertonic salt water. A bottle of 1.8 (I think it was) ounces cost $23 in Washington, $19 in Winchester, Virginia. Exactly the same product in Mexico, $6. Price-fixing, but where and by whom? What Congressmen were paid to make it legal, or not look into it too closely, or at all?
Welcome to Guatemala.
Corruption has come to be the purpose of government, and the Club battens on it. You want to see the political equivalent of a public latrine in Uganda? Try HUD, the Department of Housing and Urban Development. I promise that you will be horrified by the diversion of funds and lining of pockets.
You ask, Fred, why do you say this? Are you a student of HUD? No. I know nothing of HUD. I know much of government. HUD is an outfit with over thirty billion a year to spend, completely unwatched. Have you ever seen a newspaper story about HUD? I guarantee that it is dominated by the sacred ethnic groups who milk it like a prize Guernsey, and by big companies getting sweetheart contracts.
Or try Commerce, or Education, or the Bureau of Indian Affairs, or Congress.
It is to preserve these overflowing rice bowls that we have elections without substance between candidates without a difference. Hillary is just Jeb Bush in a dress, Biden a universally applicable cipher, Cruz a compliant applicant for membership in the club. Since the parties collude in avoiding issues that people care about, the contest becomes a popularity contest of the sort found in middle school. Whoever wins, the Insiders win.
Of course Trump also is a billionaire, but he is a turncoat, a class traitor, the Benedict Arnold of billionaires. He addresses the issues that the Insiders want to remain unaddressed. He is indeed dangerous. He threatens the endless (immensely profitable) wars, the endless (immensely profitable) shipping of American jobs to China, the endless (immensely profitable) importation of cheap Mexican labor. He threatens the sacred rice bowls.
It is why he must be stopped.
And you can get help so cheap, help was way too expensive here. That’s why people used to clean their own homes. They fixed that.
Most of the RNC/GOP is owned lock, stock and barrel by The Cheap Labor Express.
They have been actively working against the wishes of the people for decades.
Enabling the illegal alien inundation while giving lip service to national security.
GWB reduced border and interior enforcement AFTER 9/11. Totally unforgivable.
Kay Bailey Hutchinson defunded the Secure Fence Act with an amendment in a subsequent bill.
They will burn the party to the ground rather than let us elect a President who would enforce the laws.
They are arrogant, they are far from stupid or clueless.
They have been playing conservatives for years and years.
We have only had amnesty candidates since the last amnesty.
It was not accidental. It was quite intentional.
They still think they can prevent us from electing a President who will enforce the laws and borders. They want to deny us the ability to stop the illegal alien inundation.
The most important thing to the RNC/GOP is keeping the people pipeline operating.
The Cheap Labor Express has already paid them for an amnesty candidate.
I believe they are willing to do anything to block us from keeping the rule of law and our country.
Yeah I saw that, Will is a POS IMO.
I was a daily listener since I found Rush looking for news when Saddam invaded Kuwait in 1990.
I had to stop listening when he went full throated on Rubio.
It’s kind of like losing an old friend.
Good post on FARA.
The problem is we don’t have courts to prosecute or jails cells to hold all of the DC Beltway Boys and Girls who currently violate that statute.
Of course we also don’t have a Justice Department with the slightest interest in enforcing it.
True....but that’s gonna change.
Who can win for the republicans?
Trump is the only one with a chance. He will accumulate more votes than any contender of the republican party ever has in the history of the party. He will win purple states and flip blue states.
Who do you think can win the GE? Cruz???
Losing every county and congressional district in two key battleground states? Losing the entire South and then Ohio with < 16 % of the vote.
He wins in states with rigged elections and low EV weight for the GE.
Kasich? Ryan? Romney? Bush? Where’s a winner?
Yup. I like Fred, but his anti-Israel nonsense, coupled with the notion that somehow big business benefits from Chinese trade (or whatever) puts him firmly on the fringe.
Very well said, and worth repeating.
Never knew how they defunded the Secure Fence Act. Texan Kay did it- the bastards, all of them.
Conservative listeners made Rush.
Conservative intellectuals or think tanks used to offer agendas for conservative politicians and citizens. They have been taken over by the thinking and agenda or ideology of globalism.
I think globalization has seeped in a bit at a time, killing off conservative thinking and culture. I don’t think Rush or any of his globalist listeners made the decision to stab conservatives in the back or to end conservatism.
Globalization has a social agenda (amoral, atheist borderless/nationless globe) with an economic system the same. It hates conservativism because conservatives are concerned about the power, issues and conditions of the nation and it’s CITIZENS. It is concerned about moral and ethical issues and healthy/fruitful/successful lifestyles from a Western cultural pov.

Oh, there is plenty We the people can do. It won’t be pretty; but it will be complete. If the GOP convention devolves into the selection of someone not in the race, a weak RINO, there will be repercussions. These delegates have to come home and they will be held accountable. Their precious power will disappear faster than a hamburger at a McDonald’s picnic.
Then what will they do?
Delegates accountable? By what rubric? We have no influence over them nor power to punish. I don’t know what the response would be to the likely outcome of a brokered convention, but I fear Americans are too complacent to do anything of note rather than gather and hoot. The parasites have too firm a grip on the country.
Yes and I believe that a society that has turned its back on God since O’hare forced prayer out of schools has faciltated the take over by globalist who have only power and money as their god.
The author’s antipathy towards the only free country in the middle east undermines the rest of his message.
Good article, except why did he have to go anti-Israel. They are not the problem, and Trump recognizes that.
Rush does what he is told. And gets paid handsomely for doing so.
And where is your proof of this beyond the reality that you find yourself in disagreement with him during this election?
Hitlery has committed countless acts of treason. And she’s not the only one. No wonder Dems tried to reduce the punishment for treason from execution to prison.
IDS infects many people. I do not know why.
Proof that he does what he’s told? There’s no proof really. But if youve listened to him long enough and you know enough to know that he’s withholding pertinent information then you would suspect it. That trend goes back way before this election.
