Indeed. What he's got "going on" is that he is destroying the elite establishment of the Republican Party. For that I laud him! This fills me with glee, gives me joy, to see the establishment pricks you named ("Fold with five aces" McConnell, Weeper of the House Boehner, "Give 'em what they want" Ryan) all pissing their pants. Yet, as you should full well know by now, Trump is not a conservative. Like the title to this thread says, he's an ass-clown in conservative clothing. The ONLY thing attractive about him is his ongoing destruction of the Republican Party's conservative facade. Think with your head, not with your emotions. Cruz is also NOT beholding to the establishment, is in fact held in contempt by the GOP establishment, and HE IS IN FACT A CONSERVATIVE who will appoint strict originalists to the SCOTUS, will not fear to let the GDCs shut down the government when they threaten to do so if the spineless establishment Republicans don't comply with their demands, will terminate government funding for the abortion/body part mill that masquerades as Planned Parenthood, will put an end to open borders/sanctuary cities, and will spit in Radical Islam's eye. Thanks, Sap | |||

Outrageous! The very proposition just fills me with anger! I lack the vocabulary to express the visceral revulsion and anger that this generates in me. I lapse into profanity just trying to express it. Fuck any America-hating party-pussybody who does this! If we find ourselves saddled with four more years of full-bore Goddamned Communist destruction of the fabric of America because these party establishment pussies can't tolerate any candidate that they cannot control then it is time for the Second American Revolution. Thanks, Sap | |||

Oh stewardess, I speak jive. |
Regardless of Donald Trump's faults, and there are some, I consider him a gift in the form of he helping further reveal the true motivations and allegiances that most "Republicans" in our government have, by helping reveal the true nature of the RNC and Establishment. The Ryans, Romneys, Rubios, all a sad lot, fakers of the highest order, shills, garbage... | |||

Keep in mind that none of these guys can do what they are promising, without connivance with the Congress. Cruz can nominate judges, but the Senate may, or may not confirm them. Trump can repeal Obamacare and take care of everybody, if he can persuade Congress to go along. Maybe he can. They can threaten to carpet bomb, ban immigration, lower taxes, all sorts if really wonderful sounding goals, but if Congress won't pass the necessary legislation, they are just empty threats. Look at the endorsements among Republican congressmen. Unanimity isn't assured for a majority vote. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

Shit don't mean shit |
Do you mean like closing Gitmo, freeing Gitmo prisoners, shutting down the keystone pipeline, passing health care the American people don't want, the DREAM act, allowing in foreign invaders along the southern border, war on coal, Common Core, etc... Obama certainly isn't powerless, even when Republicans have a majority in BOTH houses. How can the GDC's get so much done, and we can't do shit? | |||

Apologies if this has been posted, but I could not find it. Good read, but the ads are way annoying (sorry, still worth the read) The pictures are even pretty cool. http://conservativeconstitutio...e-voting-for-trump/# Conservative Constitutionalists Skip to content Home For the best in news and entertainment News Trump’s Best Friend From School Just Wrote Something You MUST Read Before Voting For Trump! Trump’s Best Friend From School Just Wrote Something You MUST Read Before Voting For Trump! conservativeconstitutionalists March 6, 2016 image: http://conservativeconstitutio...03/trumps-friend.jpg trump's friend Peter David Ticktin is a very successful lawyer. He owns his own law firm, Ticktin Law, and he goes all the way back to military school with Donald Trump. As Mr. Ticktin, Esq., points out in the beginning of his letter, he’s made it a practice of staying out of politics for business purposes, as most successful business people do, but he felt he had to speak out after seeing ‘Little Marco’ and “Lying Ted” try to crucify Trump at the last Republican Presidential debate. Follow us for more on our Conservative Constitutionalists Facebook page by clicking on this blue sentence. As a law firm, we at The Ticktin Law Group do not like to get involved in politics. As soon as we endorse one side, we risk alienating everyone on the other side. Also, our lawyers and staff are, themselves, on both sides. Politics is not our game. However, Justice is! If you saw a guy get publicly smeared, and you knew him well from the days you were friends and seniors together in high school, if you knew him to be a decent and honest man, would you want to say something? This is why I need to share what I know. I was aghast at watching last night’s debate. It was a set-up. The moderators, Cruz, and Rubio were all like little alligators trying to take a bite out of Trump. Yes, Donald Trump has had some failures, but he has been exceedingly successful. None of this came out. Instead, there was a general attack. Rubio simply makes up lies. He pretends that Trump has small hands and makes fun of him for something which isn’t even real. He pretends that Donald wets his pants, and makes fun of him, as though it was true, and then he calls Donald Trump a “Bully.” I am not suggesting that you should vote or not vote for anyone. I just need to defend a former friend who is being smeared. Like Donald Trump, I attended New York Military Academy (“NYMA”) for high school. In fact, in our senior year, together, Donald was my captain, and I was his 1st Platoon Sergeant. I sometimes joke that I ran his first company for him, Company “A.” People don’t really change much from the ages of 17 and 18, and I know this guy. I know him to be a good decent guy. We lived and breathed an Honor Code in those years. It wasn’t just a rule. It was our way of life. Neither Donald, nor any other cadet who graduated with us would ever lie, cheat, or steal from a fellow cadet. These values became irreversibly intertwined in the fabric of our personalities, of who we are. Of the 99 guys (no girls in those days) in our class, there is not one who I know who has a bad word to say about Donald Trump. Think of it. With all the jealousies which arise in high school and thereafter, with all the potential envy, not one of us has anything other than positive memories of this man. How could we? He was an “A” student, a top athlete, and as a leader, he was highly respected. We never feared him, yet we never wanted to disappoint him. He had our respect. He was never a bigot in any way, shape or form. He only hates those who hate. Of course he denounces the KKK. As to the discussion with the New York Times, it is his choice to release the ‘off the record’ remarks. However, if he does, it opens the door for all political opposition to make that demand for everyone, and that means that our press will never get those ‘off the record’ remarks which help them to understand the realities of the campaign. Moreover, the idea that Donald Trump confessed some alternate theory of his position is preposterous. Can anyone believe that all those NY Times reporters are walking around knowing some deep dark nasty secret about a guy who is seeking an endorsement? The Republican establishment is afraid of Donald Trump. Why? They are afraid that he will lose to Hillary. They don’t hate Donald. They hate her. They are so fearful that they fail to see that by expanding the base of voters for Trump, he is more likely to win. Watching the chorus of whiners, decriers, denigrators, and self-righteous put-down experts from so many directions, from Mit Romney, to Megyn Kelly, Little Mario, it has to make you wonder. Why? Why are so many people so angry with Donald Trump, that they are lying, name calling, ridiculing, and demeaning him as they do. Either they are afraid, or they know him to be evil. This is why I feel the need to speak out at this time. I know this man. He is a lot of things, but he is not evil. He is a decent honest guy who loves this country, and who is willing to sacrifice so much of what is left of his life, because he knows that this country needs to be fixed, and that it is going to require someone who can do the job. He just doesn’t see anything around him other than political hacks, so he is willing to take this huge responsibility. I’m not saying that he is the only one who can do the job. My point is simply as to his motivation and his goodness. This next decade is going to be one of major changes. We all see the climate changing, and the world food supply is getting lower. Our fish stock around the world is running low. Oil prices will cause countries to fail. The Middle East is beyond repair, and we have become weak and ineffective around the world. Donald Trump sees the issues and knows that he can assemble leaders who would have the best chance of fixing things. This is why he is running. He does not need it for his own aggrandizement. He doesn’t need another big jet or to take up residence in the White House. He just wants things to be fixed, and he knows that the politicians won’t fix anything. I knew Donald Trump and was close to him in our senior year in high school. I just want you to know that there is nothing to fear from him. His character is as good as it gets. He is a patriot, taking on a heroic task, and being thanked by massive abuse. If you want to see a true reflection of a man, look at his children. Need I say more?

Fox people were critical of Trump for going after Romney and Graham tonight. They don't get it. Trump has an aggressive campaign strategy. Go after the enemy. Make it personal. Take away their credibility. Teach them that when they attack, they will get a bloody nose. It really is an intimidation tactic. If you are aggressive enough to pull it off, this is a good strategy. I am not criticizing it; this is just an observation. Trump may be devastating against Clinton. She is a target rich environment. and this: Two days ago, George Will: "We may have passed peak Trump". and then again, maybe not. | |||

And the Trump Train continues to accelerate! Once he wins Florida and Ohio, it's going to go from an unstoppable diesel locomotive to a fusion powered bullet train! On a side note, I loved watching Debbie Wasserman Shultz tripping over her tongue just now on Fox News trying to explain away the nonsense, crapfest, and desperation which is the Democrat party and their candidates this election. Someone needs to start working on a photoshop of Trump's face on the Juggernaut character in the X-men Last Stand movie for use against Hillary and Debbie...the one where he growls out, "I'm the Juggernaut b@%*$"! -Dtech __________________________ "I've got a life to live, people to love, and a God to serve!" - sigmonkey "Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value." - Albert Einstein "A man can never have too much red wine, too many books, or too much ammunition" ― Rudyard Kipling | |||

Better go back and look at your list. 1. Gitmo isn't closed. It can't be closed under current law. 2. Obamacare passed Congress with 100% GDC votes, with none to spare and was signed into law by the GDCIC. When you have a majority in both houses and the WH, you can do that. If one piece is missing, you can't. The actual workings of the government are very complicated. Votes are not always on party lines. Every bill of importance is negotiated to get support to pass, or not. I don't remember what stopped Keystone. Maybe the law required certain approvals by certain officers which were not forthcoming. 3. Sending those guys from Gitmo is almost entirely in the President's purview as C-I-C and conduct of foreign policy. 4. The Dream Act has never passed. Obama merely abandoned his oath to faithfully execute.... Wikipedia There's more. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.
