Paul Ryan is playing right into Donald Trump’s master plan
CNBC ^ | June 7, 2016 | Jake Novak

Here we go again.

Republican presumptive nominee Donald Trump has done it this time. His attacks on the Mexican heritage of federal Judge Gonzalo Curiel clearly show that Trump's campaign is off the rails. The proof is that even prominent Republican leaders like House Speaker Paul Ryan and former Speaker Newt Gingrich have disavowed themselves from Trump's attacks on the judge. Surely, this is the beginning of the Trump campaign's self-destruction!

Not so fast my friends.

Let me rewrite the opening paragraph to represent the true Trump strategy here, one I don't endorse but still recognize for what it is:

Republican presumptive nominee Donald Trump has done it again. His attacks on the Mexican heritage of federal Judge Gonzalo Curiel clearly show that Trump's campaign is still following its uncharted but calculated path. The proof is that even prominent Republican leaders like House Speaker Paul Ryan and former Speaker Newt Gingrich have disavowed themselves from Trump's attacks on the judge. Surely this is the continuation of the Trump campaign's brash efforts to separate itself from the Republican Party — not so much in reality, but in voter perception....

I wish Trump had spoken of the judge’s involvement in La Raza rather than the mere fact that he’s Mexican.

Trump has a way of exposing deep, festering boils by bringing up something that on the surface, sounds outrageous .... everybody in the media/RINO/DIABLO world goes ape you-know-what & then calmer heads prevail & start talking about what Trump is talking about in a factual manner. In this case, he’s pulled the scab off of La Raza .... people are saying “why is La Raza a problem?” and many are becoming ‘educated’.

Why did Newt self destruct. I guess he didn’t want the pressure of VP. It tells me much about his character. Keep flushing those rats Donald. Now we know you they are. Thanks.

[SARAH PALIN is probably on the short list]

Palin is more likely on the shorty BUS than short list...

Any ticket with her would be toxic to the nth degree!

Wasn’t that big honcho terrorist, Al Zahiri? or something - an American? He’s dead now. I can’t remember his name, but I thought he was born in America.

If a terrorist can be born in the USA, why is it impossible that a judge can’t identify more as Mexican than American.

The war to make America a Third World nation has been waged unceasingly since 1965. Trump is the first presidential candidate to even mention this fact.

The entire bureaucratic structure of the Catholic Church, Popes, bishops, and employees, has been participating in this war.

You’re not thinking 3-dimensionally like Trump does, my friend...

If Trump said “La Raza” from the beginning, it would get lost in other media happenings. In order to achieve the greatest impact of such a revelation, Trump needs 100% of the media spotlight on him to achieve maximum coverage and delivery to the masses!

Well, I know how that silly hug went a long way for Obama, but everyone makes a mistake or two.

I’m sure Christie was caught up in the emotion of his state being devastated, plus he may have been playing up a bit to get some extra funding.

I would back Sarah Palin for VP if only because when the news broke, even George Soros’ pact with Lucifer wouldn’t keep his ticker from exploding.

The Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd law firm sponsored the San Diego La Raza Lawyers Association’s 2014 Annual Scholarship Fund Dinner & Gala. They are also the law firm representing the plaintiffs in the Trump University case.

Which is exactly why the founders insisted on a natural born citizen for President.
