Rewriting The Rules - Trump's Rise Is Unprecedented
In May, when the Register last polled, 27 percent of likely Iowa GOP caucus-goers viewed Trump favorably while 63 percent regarded him unfavorably.
In the new poll, which was released Saturday night, Trump's favorable number is at 61 percent and his unfavorable at 35 percent.
As The Washington Post's Chris Cillizza exclaims,
"In the almost 20 years I have spent following politics closer than
close, I've never seen anything like the total reversal in how Trump is
perceived by Republican voters. It is, quite literally, unprecedented."
The Trump candidacy has rewritten - or at least smudged - lots of the rules of conventional politics. He says things that would derail other peoples' candidacies. His shyness about specifics on, well, anything would be seen as a lightness bordering on cluelessness in other candidates. His pick-a-fight-a-day mentality would be seen as overly aggressive and tonally off if anyone else in the field did it.
But, of all the amazing things that Trump is doing - whether he realizes what it is he is actually doing - his ability to totally turn around his image is the most remarkable. It's not something we've seen before.

The new normal is more volitility in all things.
He is saying the same things Pat Buchanan said 20 years ago. The difference is Pat meant it.
People want change and not the pennies Obummer left them with!
Why Trump is winning.
This kind of stuff RESONATES with Americans. Will he do everything promised, probably not, but he is effectively seducing the electorate with exceptionalism.
And no other candidate is doing that.
And he's going to take blue collar labor and the legal immigrants away from the democrats.
WW-III or Bust !
BYE BYE OLIGARCHS, Hello Middle Class!!!!!!!!
what would this place be like if we stopped voting?
He thinks Snowden's a "total traitor":

Don't get a fat head over this Donald.
It's business.
Thanks,

Trump 20:16 "Give a man a fish, and he will eat for a day. Deport him, and you won't have to feed him or his anchor babies ever again."
That's fine if Trump wins. It's not like it will really matter in the grand scheme of things.
There's absolutely no political solution what-so-ever to the ecnomic problems that are crushing the planet. Is Trump going to "end the Fed"? No. Is he going to root out the criminal banksters and the traders who rig the "markets" like the den of vipers that they are and return us back to a true free market? No. Is he going to get rid of fiat currency and return us back to Constitutional gold and silver physical money? No.
Does he talk about any of these things? No. Will he ever before the primaries or even after the primaries if he actually wins the nomination? No.
Can he reverse the manufacturing trend in America where all those jobs...10's of millions of those good jobs have been lost to China, Mexico, Korea, etc. etc. etc.??? No. No, he can't.
Will he repeal the IRS tax system? No.
Will he repeal obamacare? No.
Will he end the Department of Homeland Security and the TSA and the militarization of America and persecution of good, honest, Constitutional American citizens? No.
Fuckin' A, folks...I could go on and on...I'm sure you all could add even more to this short list.
He may not be a fucking Marxist, Commie, treasonous, dirtbag like obama. He may be much better than nearly everyone else in some way. That's all well and good.
But he can't do anything to stop the massive financial Tsunami that's heading out way. There's no fucking way around it.
The best thing he could do is to start telling people about it and telling them to get prepared for it now. Whether he wins anything or not he will still wake up a lot of still very asleep sheeple out there.
THAT would make him a worthy dude to be an American President in my book.
But we're going to get fucking smashed hard by this and the more people awake now and getting prepared the better. We might not even make it to the next election. It has to be said...it's a slight possibility and everyone should be thinking of that and what they would do if it came to that.
Vote for Trump...fine. Definitely better than most; especially all the fuck-tards on the other side of the shit sandwich we have to choose from.
But don't put much faith in it. Even if Trump was President, and even if he could abolish the IRS, the FED, and obamacare...he and nobody else can still chang the fact that we're going to be crushed by hundreds of Trillions in debt and there's no way around it. There's no way to come out of that without going through epic pain that America and this entire planet has never seen before.
At the rate we're going, it seems the Globalists know this too and they're just biding their time before they push us all into WWIII. And there's nothing Trump could do to stop that either.
But I guess in the end it would be "entertaining", right? Since everything these days is just a fake "reality" show and that's what the sheep-tards want...bread and circuses for the sheeple. Well, at least they will have some last bit of entertainment before reality crushes their lives beyond all imagination.
That's the one reality show the sheeple are not going to enjoy at all.
What about Rand Paul. He will end the IRS, repeal obamacare, audit and end the Fed, end the NSA (he filibustered for hours on it), he showed up the TSA (which he wants to end. Says the arms over the head stance is not the sign of a free person). Everything on your list, Rand Paul is on the correct side of.
I like Rand too. I like Ron more. If Rand actually won I would hope he would make his dad the next head of the non-Federal Reserve with the sole task to dismantle the entire system and to arrest and prosecute all the treasonous scum who work for it.
But again...I don't live in la-la land...and so I know this will not happen. I believe Rand is against all of that...I always have. And it's good that he talks about it.
But he ain't gettin' anywhere these days. Let's face it. He's not exactly being "out-classed"...he's just being marginalized and he's being a big huge smelly pussy too. I don't respect that.
If he can't speak up like he needs to and let loose...let it go and quit being so quiet about what he needs to be as vocal about as Trump is then he's going to get shoved aside just like Ron Paul did. Plain and simple. It's been happening to him ever since Trump jumped in there.
And that's fine, like I said, if Trump steals some thunder and is at least more popular than the scumbags on the other side of that Right/Left shit sandwich we have to choose from, then that's fine with me. I just don't have any delusions about what he would or could do if elected. Hopefully Trump forces Rand Paul to speak up and take some risks with the media and the public.
I hope Rand is learning a thing or two from Trump. But then the trick for Rand would be to step it up without it looking fake because he's only "trying" to be outspoken like Trump and not coming across like he's faking it and doesn't really mean it.
Because people like us will fucking know it immediately and we don't want someone who's faking it.
So we'll see what happens.
But still...when it all comes down to the real problems...and that's the financial fiasco we're embroiled in right now. There's nothing and nobody who can fix this. It's too big now. It's out of control and nobody can stop it. One of those guys or gals needs to tell the sheeple about it. Needs to express to them that this ain't no fuckin' conspiracy theory going on right now. This is the reality of it and that everyone needs to get working on being prepared.
Yes, that might cause a big commotion and maybe a run on banks and run on grocery stores and runs on supplies and everything else. But it's necessary. Because right now this treasonous government is out there telling the sheeple that people like us are just wackos and calling us "enemies" and shit like that. Well that shit's gotta stop.
Any candidate who uses this time to change that sentiment right now and gets the people preparing and understanding what's coming will show me they're worthy. But if Trump just wants to talk shit and run around enjoying more fame without informing the people of what's coming and helping educate them on how to prepare or to use the (I hate to say this...gives me the creeps)...or to somehow use the government for some good for once and not all the nefarious, criminal shit they typically do against the people, then there's just no point to any of it.
But again...I have no faith in any of them doing that. I doubt it's even occurred to them. And if it has, there's no way they could get anything done. Government is too big, too rotten, too corrupt, too full of sick, sociopaths and scumbags, and anything government might come up with to help the people would just end up costing us 10x's more than it was supposed to and become and huge boondogle just like everything else government does.
How to get around that? Let the private sector do it. Let the people do it for ourselves. But once again you have to have someone in office who will get government off the people's backs. Get the regulations out of the way. End all that bullshit and the taxes and fees and all the other bullshit laws that destroy the ability of the private sector to help itself.
It'll never happen.
1776 has to happen again. It's the only way.
Rand was aggressive in the debate. He basically smacked Christie with the bill of rights. And he still got the least amount of time. Good thing we have the Internet to get the truth out. It's far too early to count Rand out. He just campaigned in states that vote after Super Tuesday in March. He will be in the race for the long haul.
that's all well and good...and that makes me think of another issue I don't like about all of this. I barely even remember the debate(s). Of course one I couldn't even see because I didn't even know about it. The 2nd later one I still barely recall other than "Trump and Kelly got in a fight"...and then that's all most people recall. Not all of them...but still look at when that debate occured. Like what a month ago? And it's already dust in the wind.
These people start campaigning waaaaay too fucking early. It's actually pathetic and I'm sure I'm not alone in that I just won't even pay attention anymore. Nothing these people say matters right now to me. They should have 3 months prior to the elections to campaign. They should all have to raise the same amount of money privately in a certain time-frame so they all have the same budget. Those who don't have the money can still try of course, but nobody can go over a certain budget. It would teach them all...how do we say?? Oh yeah...FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY. lol
If they can't campain with a specific budget in 3 months. Say like 25 million bucks? or 50 million? I don't know. Then they obviously wouldn't have what it takes to run America.
I don't need these fuckers yapping at me 15 months ahead of time, especially when none of them will acknowledge the fiscal Tsunami heading our way right fucking now. If they aren't helping to inform the sheeple and get them awake and on their way to some kind of beneficial preparations then fuck 'em. I don't care what they're talking about. It's all just a bullshit fake reality show...it's like watching the auditions for American Idol where they all suck but they think they're superstars and if the judges don't like them they freak out. Worthless waste of time on delusional people.
I just don't want any of them in my life anyway.
We don't need government. Government is the fucking problem. We need to eradicate at least 90% of what we have in "government" right now as it is. Trim it back to bare minimum. But of course that will never happen.
But...to quote a politician who I do think was pretty cool, Ronald Reagan: The 9 most terrifying words: "I'm from the government, and I'm here to help."
That's all we need to know about that.
Given what you say comparing Trump to Paul don't you find it the most plausible explanation that Trump is in the race to overshadow Paul and take away all of the attention from the real issues. If media coverage is any sort of barometer then this is exactly the case. The only thing that makes it interesting is that so many "folks" are lining up behind him that he's actually winning easily.
I wonder if TPTB saw that coming. I also wonder if they can actually control Trump.
I don't wonder if I like Trump. I know I don't.
PS - Yeah, I realize it is pointless too. But it can still be entertaining. It's like watching your local pro football team. It won't make your life get any better if they win but you still find the game interesting. Oops, sorry. I do believe the NFL actually calls them sporting events or some such that implies there just might not be real competition going on.
"His shyness about specifics on, well, anything would be seen as a lightness bordering on cluelessness in other candidates."
Just another hit piece on Trump. Trump has provided far more specifics than any candidate I can remember, and his changes would actually benefit this country.
Please list some of those specifics. You can start with how he plans to reign in/shutdown the NSA, CIA, Federal Reserve, SS, Obamacare, Dept of Ed, BLM, EPA, and stop funding to Israel (and all other countries while we are at it).
Oh, deport them all and build a wall and somehow force Mexico to pay for it. Got it.
Every body wants answers now., a lot of instant gratification victimization.
My Middle east solution is to glass the place.
For some reason that is not politically popular.
I would not expect any one to have the Knowledge of Delphi at the tip of his fingers.
Or the solution to the Gordian knot.
Jamie D and Lloyd B have juggled the world for some time, an asset. as have too many of the asshat central banks.
Mr Trump has done more Juggling than any ten of us put together.
A juggler is not the best choice, but better than the slimers.
Mr Sanders has Juggled nothing, other than his party affiliation. Yet his run is interesting.
You can keep waiting for Godot, but I'm happy with shutting down the borders, getting rid of illegal aliens, calling bullshit on the politically correct, taxing High Frequency Traders, calling out the political establishment, using himself as an example on how congress is bought and paid for by the guy with the most money.
You live in a Dream World where you think all that other stuff is somehow possible THIS TIME AROUND
Oh, and please tell us your choice, so we can say the same thing about EPA, NSA, etc .. At least Donald calls Bullshit. Who is your guy, Bernie? Or are you too good to vote, because your non-vote is so powerful and above everyone else. Whatever, you got nothing
So it seems to be a Trump supporter, you must believe that immigration is the only issue that matters. Because it has been laid out by countless other commenters how terrible he is on a lot of other issues. The most important ones at that, like: THE FEDERAL RESERVE!! Or gun rights. Or THE FEDERAL RESERVE! Or privavcy. OR the FEDERAL RESERVE! Or Healthcare. Or THE FEDERAL RESERVE! Or corporatism. Or THE FEDERAL RESERVE!
All of the disasters stem from the fed, not the illegal immigrants, who Trump actually employed!!!
If the Fed was ended, the welfare system would end too. Then the illegals wouldn't be coming here and feeding of the welfare system. Oh yeah, if you end the war on drugs, the border would be a lot safer becasue the bad ones wouldn't have the incentive on crossing.
Yeah, and a chicken in every pot. Let's start by reversing all of Obama's Bullshit. The list is quite long, and we have to start there.
Again. Who is your candidate? I would love to pick him apart for everything you just laid out and then some. You got nothng.
In addition to “free” college tuition, Bernie the putz said a key part of his platform is climate change.
“People want us to deal with climate change,” he said and claimed the issue is generating “enormous enthusiasm.”
Climate change didn't even register on a Gallup poll conducted in early August.

Has Trump got you all tuned into the nightly news?
Mission accomplished.
I cancelled cable 15 months ago...just interwebs only here since then. I won't pay for that bullshit. However...fucked up story here about my cable cancellation.
I was paying 135/month for HD cable and high speed interwebs. My monthly bill was itemized as such: 50 bucks for the interwebs and 85 bucks for the cable.
So when I decided to cancel I figured I'd be saving 85 a month and paying just 50 a month for the cable.
So I called up to cancel and they told me my new monthly bill for just interwebs was going to be 88 bucks including all the bullshit fees and taxes. I asked, "WHAT THE FUCK???". LOL
Well, that's just how it goes...since all I was going to use was the interwebs, then those cock suckers were going to fuck me over by making me pay 38 bucks more a month for it.
Oh well...I'm still saving nearly 40 bucks a month by not paying for that garbage TV. And I can still watch any games I want for free with streaming sites.
My only favorite shows are Deadliest Catch and Gold Rush anyway, LOL...and I can find them live streaming in HD either live or by the next day whenever I want to watch it. Don't need to pay cable TV for 300 channels of pure shit when you can find it "free" somewhere else on the good 'ol interwebs.
We don't need cable or sat, folks. Cancel that shit. The best way to protest is with your MONEY! Walk away from them.
Has Trump got you all tuned into the nightly news?

Pretty much how I see it. It's August, the time of shark bites, dead white girls and the east coast media obsessing about soon to be loser candidates. Too bad Kim K or Bruce Jenner isn't running, they'd be in heaven. As far as Iowa goes, on a very cold night next February something like 15% of the Republicans will show up for a 2-3 hour caucus. There won't be many blowhards supporting Trump there. Just like there we're many Bachman supporters last time despite the east coast media concocted summer surge of 2011. In Iowa, (and New Hampshire) real candidates are building county by county support. No TV there to watch, so "the Donald" won't be involved.
Trump 20:17 thou shall not give a man an assault rifle
20:18 thou shall extend waiting times for purchasing weapons
20:19 thou shall extend corporate bankruptcy laws
20:20 thou shall support isreal with unsinkable aircraft carrier
20:21 thou shall invdade other countires to benefit us corporations
20:22 thou shall pay politicians to get them to steal a widow's house, so you can build a parking lot for your casino.
19:00 make a bunch of shit up about Trump while supporting Bernie the putz's platform of "FREE" college and fighting climate change
All of that about Trump in the two posts are true. We could post the links, but figured that people could do their own research. There iks something out there called the internet. If used correctly it can be a tool to get around the MSM and their propaganda.
And I do not like Sanders. You can see what I think of his socialist beliefs on the post about Sanders earlier today. The truth is that until we end the fed, no drastic changes will occur. There is only one candidate with the track record of being anti-fed. If you don't know who that is, it's time to research the candidates (hint its not Clinton, Trump or Sanders).
And if you say that this candidate doesnt have a chance, I ask why not? Becuase she/he is anti-fed? Then we should support her/him even more. Because the MSM won't cover her/him? We need to make it known all over the free/alternative media. Because she/he will be cheated? We need to get a clear majority. Becuase she/he is polling bad at the moment (according to MSM polls)? We have 6 months befoe most of the country votes. That is alot of time for people to realize that one candiate is not like the rest.
Be part of the solution, not part of the problem.

There won't be another election = Martial Law + WWIII = Obama wins .............
I still question the authenticity of Mr. Snowden, but indeed this is proof enough that Trump serves his surveillance state masters well. As if a "leader" will be allowed to rise who is even allowed to express any neutral or opposing sentiments to surveillance.
IMHO I think that Trump will learn about NSA, CIA, etc. and change his mind about a lot of things. Snowden may be one of them. If I were Snowden, I would keep a really low profile though just in case.
If Trump were that asleep (and no way he his), then he would wake up dead, just as any candidate would who even got close to the presidency.
Which is to say that the P in POTUS isn't President; it's Puppet.
If you don't know about the NSA or the CIA and how evil they are, then you are not a good choice to be president. Pretty simple really. And these are minor issues comapred to the 100 trillion dollar elephant, The Federal Reserve!
Sanders' rise is also unprecedented, and he's beat Trump head to head, but few outlets cover him.
Sanders has the .alt media looking for their messiah.
Imagine, a self outed Socialist.
Everyman's wet dream.
(where's my daily FSA delivery?)
he is the jewish media message incarnate, effeminate white male who bows down to the lowest common denominator, begging for their ignorant votes. espousing diversity as a way to destroy the only civilization ever created, white european, through the never ending bull horns like npr crying "multiculturalism the new god!" fuck him and fuck all that propaganda, fergusson and baltimore told me all i need to know about the true content of diversity's character.
ps rip to the police and reporters murdered by diversity and all those to come.
Hmm, there is another word that THEY have conned YOU into murdering.
Blending everyone together into one is the opposite of diversity.
Diversity is maintaining different groups so that no one stroke can wipe out humanity (think some kind of super virus). In that sense, diversity is our strength.
Please, stop abusing our language as they wish. What's next, calling dicators, criminals, and thugs liberal? See?
What we're seeing here is a nation whose Market is so destroyed by the crooked central bankers that we are having a Facist vs Socialist war just like Italy after WW1.
what would our day at the hedge be like without the usual daily rump commercial?
p.s. oh my the T didn't stick....oh well probably better left unedited
Will Trump support the majority of laws that are in violation of the Constittution?
I appreciate the discussion brought forward by Trump, but have heard nothing from him regarding the elimination of entire agencies or allegiance to the founding documents.
I think he would just be more of the same.
Hey, no critical thinking! Just jump on the bandwagon and support your team.
Anybody who is even toying with voting in this or any other national election has already disqualified himself as someone capable of critical thinking.
NOT Voting is sooo edgy and brave, no one will notice ...
A principled non-vote is a vote against the status quo that mindless voting perpetuates:

Some other considerations before one gives Trump the blank check:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNc-lB6rEdE
Exactly. Nothing about the limited jurisdiction of the federal either.
How does Trump stand for the Constitution?
He wants to infringe on our gub rights!
He wants to hang snowden for showing us that the US doesn't obey the 4th ammd!
He wants to ignore the Constitution and as President would take us to war. The Constitution states that power is delegated to Congress not the president.
He does sell out to special interest. He wants to invade Syria and send in oil companies.
He is not loyal to Americans. In fact he has tried to use his corporate and government powers to steal peoples property and houses!
He is experienced! He has filed bankruptcy 4 times.
At least you should know what you are supporting, because it is not the Constitution!
MBA's are not big Constitutional scholars.
If successful they hire people for that.
I suggest Levin school , not the Obama school.
For the price of 75 Czars.......... you can afford 1 good scholar.
But... But.... Hillary will say and do anything you want her to, just ask her....
Not a huge fan of The Silver Spoon (anyone who can't turn a profit running a casino is a special sort of fucking idiot), but given the choice of Donny over Hill, I'm willing to let him take a shot- doesn't really matter what chud is sitting in the Oval Office anyway.....
If Trump gets the Puppet job aka President I will be stunned. TPTB will then have changed there plans. Everyone knows the voting us RIGGED.
When The Donald says that he will abolish the Fed, remove money from political elections, forbid dual citizenship for Israelis, give back the airwaves to The People, imprison Wall Street gangsters, imprison company heads who hire illegals, break up the TBTF banks and corporations, eliminate the federal education agency ( I forget the acronymn), eliminate the income tax etc., - ONLY then will I believe he is serious about confronting "evil".
And as soon as he does the above, every nailgun in Amerika will be aimed at him (the nailguns have an embedded chip which can be hacked and taken control of).
It really boils down to one thing:
He does not backtrack or apologize for what he has said.
He is not bashful nor shy about his opinions.
That is pretty much it.
He is an arrogant, egotistical Asshole with a capital A.
...and people think that is what is needed to deal with all the minor and weasel type asshole who occupy modern politics.
You're only partly right. Not backing down is very important but it is the nature of the opinions that is critical.
His views are contrary to those of the political, financial and media establishment but resonate with a huge number of Americans. They in fact express the beliefs that people have been bullied about having and expressing.
So you have a guy that says what a huge volume of voters (including minorities) believe, outs the establishment and does not back down.
It is the combination that is so powerful.
And interestingly, Pat Buchanan got no where near as much traction....
Hair.
PB - Just not an impressive guy. Trump turned 2 million into 10 billion. I'm not expressing this well, but it's different.
Fun fact: people forget that Buchanan kicked Trump's ass in the Reform Party primaries in 2000. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reform_Party_presidential_primaries,_2000
That was before a lot of people started realizing that the two major parties are in bed together.
Most Homosexuals are homophobes.
Please, spare me bitches.
"A boy rakes a body with his claws, there is fear."
The two parties in bed together got me to think that true thought. thanks.
It's a national catharsis against PC, won't last for long. People will be over Trump when it comes time to cast their votes. It's fun to have him as a campaigner in a stadium but not as a decider in WH.
So who else is there to vote for? The rest are bought and sold.
I rest my case.
Catharsis huh?

There should be a VIX for "elections".
Sure, why not. There's already a FIX.
Everything is relative. It isn't trump is so great, its just that the others are so bad.
Whether you like him or not, Trump's soaring popularity comes down to one main depressing fact:
He is a celbrity.
If he did not have his own TV show and personality, most of the retarted population of America would not give two shits about him or what he says, no matter how right or wrong he actually is on a matter. That is a fact.
Not bad insight.
Grab a few more years and really get peaved.

The sheeple have been electing and reelecting the corrupt elected career politician miedras over and over and look where the country is today - deeper in debt, stealth recession, occult unemployment and loss of standing on the global stage.
Electing another career politician turd makes about as much sense as a pay toilet in a diarrhea ward.

It demonstrates only one thing: how desperately lacking in real leadership we have been for so long. Like him or hate him, HE ACTS LIKE AND IS A REAL LEADER.
Personally, I don't like him but I understand completely why some people do.
Not sure if I like him or not, but I LOVE that he is a pain in the ass for the Repubs and democrats.
All I know is that there are a lot more retarded people out there than I thought.
Edit: The one thing I will give Trump is that he illustrates how pissed off people are about the politically correct bullshit that is strangling our nation. Beyond that fact, he is a complete phony.
There's an exponential function joke in there somewhere.
Amazing that any ZHer would fall for this totally connected Wall St Bankster and DC lobbyist loving prick. He is as "inside" as you can get.
How or why people can't see this here is remarkable and astonishing.
Most on ZH likely do see the Trumpster for what he is - dangerous entertainment.

If I had a choice between Jeb, Hillary and Trump, and I couldn't pick "none of the above," or "guillotine," I would pick Trump, then walk away feeling extremely filthy and disgusted. None of the candidates are good. Trump running and getting voter approval is revealing DC politics for the circus that it is. I'd be fine with that, except for the fact that DC politics has an effect on all of our lives.

Unprecedented? No. Just a strongman who is saying the right things at the right time to gain popularity among the disaffected masses who are now waking up to reality.
An absolute pity that those just waking up to reality never take the rational path, and instead turn to strongmen. Looks like Rand completely missed the boat here. If he had stayed true to his politics rather than compromising his approach, he might have won. Instead, it looks like he has taken up residence on the Titanic.
I couldn't have said it better myself. What better illustration of the unfitness of the other 16 dwarves to lead than their rush to embrace right-wing populist extremism? They will never get neo-Nazi like Trump can, so they can't beat him on that. But not a one of them has figured out that the way to compete with a bombastic buffoon is to remain the adult in the room. Losers to a man, and woman.
As if ANY of the presidential hopefuls are even able to be the "adult in the room", hah. They are all wormy liars competing to be the one able to betray their fellow Americans, and profit from permitting others to loot what's left of this country. They are all losers indeed.
And what does it say about the quality of the GOP's governors and senators when voters step over them to vote for a multiply-bankrupt clown who threw an old lady out of her house with eminent domain so he could build more limo parking in Atlantic City?
Hah, you used "quality" and "GOP" in the same sentence.
What does it say about Democrats who embraced a race-baiting, neo-Marxist Muslim dictator who is a habitual liar with homosexual tendencies?
Il Douche
he hasnt even begun to go after the Clinton's!
the exact same phrases, content, message in speeches Clinton gave before he was elected in 92' was in many of the speeches during his tenure as POTUS, which are the "same" content speeches post 2001 for the last 15 years - paid for by corporations and the 1%
Clinton was paid nothing before 92' - $250,000 per year post 92' to 2000 as POTUS - and $250-500,000 per "speech" - week after week after 2001
how could the content not change and end up with a vague worthless general message and be paid $100 of millions - except - with a deferred compensation agreement from all these special interests?
Trump is merely a stalking horse for Hillary. She's spent the last 8 years working on her campaign, and her present troubles will be ancient history when the primaries roll around.
You really aren't paying attention. The Obama crime family is politicaly rubbing out the Clinton crime family and Hillary's only choices are to withdraw from the campaign (bad fall or whatever reason) or find herself and all her hangers on wearing orange jump suits.
The Obamas and Jarrett do NOT want another Clinton presidency.
So Trump can't be a stalking horse for Clinton.
Leaving aside that Obama is taking out the Clintons, to be a "stalking horse" candidate you have to basically offer policies that your substitute can also adopt. Trump's political positions are about the polar opposite of those of Clinton.
When Sanders first started making noise, they trotted out good ol' Clinton stalking horse Wesley Clark. Then by sheer coincidence when Clark didn't get any traction, Trump announced, and started spouting the same immigration lines that Hillary did almost 10 years ago.
Obama is just a sock puppet, doing the bidding of his masters. He was chosen to beat Hillary solely because he was unassailable due to his race in implementing national health care and advancing the gay agenda, whereas Hillary would not have been. Also because he could not be attacked, he was also able to turn the Oval Office into a throneroom, and it might seem like a miracle right now, but nothing will stop the Queen from ascending the throne.
Well... there are no good options to vote on during these elections, so all that matters is who you want to see on television telling you that America went bankrupt and martial law is in effect.
It's just plain scarry that there's not a single moral knight in the ranks.
All I see on their resumes is 'future billionaire'.
'Successful Cat Wrangler' is what we need.

i agree with nodebt. as an american, im tired of us getting kicked-around & whinding up on the shitty end of these deals. these ass-clowns on the left who say "he's going to get us into a a trade war!" newsflash assholes: we've been in a trade war & we've been getting creamed. between NAFTA and not doing ANYTHING about allowing countryies like china & japan to devalue at will to export deflation/recession is unacceptable once bill clinton decided to connect the world thru his globalization intiate. also, im just tired of the entire world laughing at us. any & every world leader does NOT respect obama and he is simply incapable of constructing deals with major world leaders. putin & xi are case-in-point. he wont even meet with putin and xi is going to talk circles around him when he comes in for a visit. at the very least, trump is on record saying he would do deals with both because you fucking have too when countries are as big as we, china, and russia are. world is only so big and these are 3 of the biggest countries/economies on the planet. takes a strong leader from the west & the next guy gonna need broad shoulders & thick skin to clean up the mess left by this & the previous administration.
unprecedented in the united states, sure. the hysteric left likes to compare him to hitler, but, he's actually a lot more like pablo escobar.
He can't be Hitler. He hasn't even finished his book yet. He's only done chapters 7 & 13 and I hear he's probably not really finished with those either. Has he tossed any beer halls lately? Done time in the joint? I'll give him style points for saluting with his hair though.
Jon
You watch too much television.
That's a solid joke right there -- can I use that?
You bet!
Trump still needs to answer the most important question. How to make billions of dollars through your own labor. Yes, Trump indeed looks like a one eyed among blind mostly because people have gotten used to politics without leader. Any leader would do just fine.
Maybe if Ron Paul had trumps hair? Seriously tho..Ron Paul had a huge audience too but the media ignored him....but the media does not ignore trump which makes me something fishy is going on
Ron Paul doesn't have a Jewish daughter. Ron Paul never went to Israel to bow the knee. 'nuff said.
Ron Paul had a substantial following but he did not have a "huge audience". Nor was Ron Paul entertaining. Unless you believed in his ideas, he came across as a doddery grandfather type. I'm not disrespecting Paul. His ideas are great and he probably would have made a good president but you actually have to get elected first.
The media is not giving Trump air time as a favor. They are giving him air time because he is entertaining even to those who are not his supporters and so media ratings go up when they have him on, which means more money for them. Fox got 24 million viewers for its Republican debate solely because Trump was on and he made it huge entertainment and guaranteed that every debate with him will draw huge viewer numbers.
Politically most of the media hates his guts and they diss him at every opportunity, which actually adds to his credibility, which drives them mad. But any of them who don't carry him lose viewers to those who do. So their economic interest wages war on their political interest.
There is nothing "fishy" going on in that regard.
Deez Nutz is in the running so American presidential elections are now clearly a joke to voters.
Maybe Republicans are sick of pussies like no backbone Boehner.
That and wall kissers.
Trump? Sure, why not.
Exactly. You literally can't do worse than Obama and his outright hatred of all white people and America as a concept.
Wait..I thought Hildebeast was still in the race.
Doubt it. Who'd ever heard of Jimmy Carter or Bill Clinton?
Don't underestimate the importance of his previous TV show.
He improved on his stage presence and he has controlled his surroundings to present himself in a more positive and forceful manner.
Wait. I thought Chuck Barris did the Gong Show...
Talk about conditioning, the fuck you want a leader for? Who tells 'You' when to get up and do the 'Do' for you and your family then? You fucking do.
Once again, there is no, as in not a fucking dismal chance on a cold day in hells way of voting for some dodgy haired wanker with a bankruptcy problem going to fix the insurmountable problems we face. You fucking got that yet?
Jesus fucking tap dancing christ himself sits shaking his head.
???
As is typically the case, your writing verges on incomprehensible. I'm still trying to decide if you're mentally disabled or Scottish! (perhaps a disctinction without a difference? :-) )
Almost mate. I'm a geordie, a scotchman with his brains kicked owt, according to local legend anyhow, and more to my detriment I still fucking live here?
I dont lie though, suppose it could considered a good thing eh?
;-)
This is true. So you see the irrational desperation that has gripped the USA? We cry out for strong leadership and we are presented with girly men and fascistic women with delusions of Godhood clamoring for power.
Frankly I find Trump relatively innocuous. If conditions were to be that of the Weimar Republic a true Hitlerian type would probably emerge promising solutions and most would vote him in out of panic.
Miffed
As you well know sweetheart, voting cannot, will not fix this.
This is the moment just before what some would call redemption. And we are getting it, whether we like it or not.
Take care mind.
;-)
Yes. It is like a rat taught to push a button for a food pellet. Even when no more pellets are forthcoming, he clings to his button in vain hopes it will resume. Never does he contemplate his cage or attempt his escape. There is safety and catharsis just pressing the button in hopes of a different future.
I have given up the button and false hopes it engenders. Now is the time to see the cage, plan escape and not succumb as a trapped animal. At least if I fail, I will be consciously fighting for my freedom and not following a script handed me to follow.
Miffed;-)
Take heart my friend.
The people are waking up faster than even this old cynic thought possible, you will be more than alrite.
Once again, take care, rights on your side...
;-)
So, where do all the Wussies in the UK draw the line wrt The Nanny State THEY are being subjected to?
The media is scared to death of another Reagan which Trump could possibly become. The more they trash him, the more I like him as a candidate. It is way past time for the media to stop interjecting their tremendously lopsided liberal bias into the national narrative.
What are you, 17? Trump as Reagan? You are an IDIOT! Reagan was an American.....first. Trump is a CEO......first. Reagan was a humble, gentle, man who sought to serve his country. Trump is an arrogant ass, a do nothing bafoon, and he seeks only to serve himself.
You people are so stupid. Where has Trump been the last 20 years? Answer: Sucking off the banker tit doing "deals" to make himself rich while the country has gone to hell in a handbasket. Oh, yeah, he did file bankruptcy 4 times......so he could keep his money. Now all of a sudden he is an American Patriot, a political savior, the best thing for American, blah, blah, blah.
You all deserved the Obama you got and you will deserve it when you get Trumped.
Oh my! Did some of Ronnie's "trickle down" land on your head and leech into your brain cells thirty years later...?
S/
Yeah, much as I respect and revere Reagan, as President of SAG and a Democrat,
he was no angel in political warfare.
Trump is not as ideologically coherent as Reagan but may be as much a man for his time as Reagan was.
Like Reagan he believes in America, an America that works and makes things and creates wealth for its people, not one which lacks that discipline and sense of personal responsibility that was central to the rise of the US.
Which other of the current candidates could campaign on the slogan "Make America Great Again" and be credible?
Hmm, guess that ("credible") means yer NOT voting for Hillary then?
It's unprecedented because it's about. fucking. time! The looting and deceit by the MSM, the politicians, and the bankers has also been unprecedented.
Until now the armchair pundits have willfully avoided discussing that there are indeed seething masses of disenfranchised Americans. We sent Washington two "Cease and Desist" orders, in two historic elections, only to be given the middle finger by the public servants of both parties.
A Pox on them all!
Go Trump!
couldn't agree more with felixdakat - left is scared shitless of trump. they might have to work for stuff instead of stuff for free. with al sharpton's show getting the boot from MSNBC, heads are primed to explode. president trump might break that station.
Can you be that stupid? Trump is a major play in the "free-shit army". Your little minute brain can't see that the FSA is not just made up on people who get food stamps. The FSA is run by the major banks in this country......of which Trump is a regularly rented whore.
Trump gets away with what he gets away with,
because he's financing it. His gold...
His Rules.
Other politicians need to pander to every
idiot constituency on the planet, whether
they can pay for it or not!
Yup part of it, all lawyer ed off and legally part of promotion of his brand , therefore his properties.
Who else ya got that is that slick that hasn't killed Vince Foster?
Lately I have noticed an unprecedented use of the term unprecedented.
Wait, was that a glitch in the Mat...
There is an orange pill, but it does cause heartburn.
