Well, he would be if only he'd aim that audacity in the correct direction. Or at least a worthwhile one.

Many of the wealthy office holders donate their salary to the Treasury. The Kennedy's did, I believe. They still had enough scratch to afford rehab. 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 | |||

You're kidding, right? You want him to tell potential voters that he's a billionaire, yet he'd going to take 'their' money anyway, while arguing for tax cuts, and donate it to a charity of his choice that some would potentially disagree with. Offering to take a dollar a year, while also asserting that he'd forego continuous vacations and jetting around the globe in lieu of having foreign dignitaries come to Washington instead, just continues to feed the narrative Trump wants out there, namely, that he's going to do things totally different than all the other career politicians.

Well, if the congress doesn't act, then I guess Trump would have to pull out Barry's pen and phone and take care of it for them. Barry's shown what a president can get away with, even with a Repub House and Senate. Heck, Trump should be able to do pretty much anything he wants without fear of reprisal from the current cast of cowards. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom.

^^^ Aren't you assuming the current cast of cowards is going to be returning in the next Congress? Hey, O got a bunch of stuff through Congress before the first midterms washed the OCare Dems off of Capitol Hill. The next President is going to need to work things through Congress to undo all that damage. At the same time, the alternative is a Congress that does nothing out of sheer spite - and they've become experts at that over the last sixteen years. | |||

Trump isn't our candidate, he's our murder weapon, and the GOPe is the target. "Some things are apparent.

To us they are abject failures. And to America. But things are going swimmingly for them. We have to understand this. They are part of a Washington collection of RINOs, Democrats, lobbyists, the Chamber of Commerce, corporations, main stream media-- who all work together, one hand washing the other. This is why they all leave fabulously wealthy, and fall into cushy jobs with corporate positions, as lobbyists, etc. They are our political leaders, so it's hard to accept this simple truth about them: They don't care about America. They don't give a shit about Americans. They are corrupt, selfish, elites, who live in their own world, very different from our world. They encourage an invasion of illegals for their own selfish reasons, and in the knowledge that no matter how badly, for example, public schools suffer from being overwhelmed with impoverished Mexicans and Guatemalans, their own kids will get the best education in private schools. No matter how our health system is compromised by the flood of diseased, sickly aliens, they will get the best medical treatment money can buy. No section eight housing will go up in their gated communities. And so on. We revile Boehner and McConnell and all the other RINOs, but they are as happy as pigs in shit. ______________________________________________________ "You get much farther with a kind word and a gun than with a kind word alone." | |||

Here is a long "Yahoo News" (hahaha) puff piece on Dr. Ben Carson, laden with flattering photos, and describing him as rivaling Donald Trump, and, in the headline, "surging in the polls." If you read the whole article you will notice that, oddly, given the headline, it does not cite even one of the -- presumably-- many polls in which he is "surging." There is a lot of speculation on conservative sites that Karl Rove's strategy to get the nomination for Jeb is to push Carson as a way to deflate Trump. Megan Kelly led her show with a flattering portrait of Carson about a week ago, even though nothing had happened, really, to justify so much attention to Carson. Dana Perino has also been fluffing Carson on air on Fox. (I read this on sites I trust. I don't watch that crap.) It won't work. Carson is a brilliant physician, seems like a genuinely nice man-- but Trump is on fire with the anger of a nation. https://www.yahoo.com/politics...he-128202264151.html ______________________________________________________ "You get much farther with a kind word and a gun than with a kind word alone." | |||

Jeb! has been out campaigning speaking Spanish - Trump took note of that... http://www.breitbart.com/big-g...n-the-united-states/ EXCLUSIVE — DONALD TRUMP FIRES BACK AT JEB BUSH: HE SHOULD LEAD BY ‘SPEAKING ENGLISH’ WHILE IN THE UNITED STATES 2016 Republican frontrunner Donald Trump told Breitbart News that former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush should be speaking English—not the Spanish he spoke to attack Trump in Miami this week—on the campaign trail. Trump had harsh words for Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL)80% in this interview as well and lit into the donor class, all while saying that the “silent majority” in America is waking up and fighting to take back the country from the political class. Trump also predicted that he will not only win the White House in 2016, but that he will be re-elected in 2020–predicting he will be a two-term president–and that at the end of his eventual eight years in the White House he will be known to all as a “great conservative” just like Ronald Reagan. “I like Jeb,” Trump said. “He’s a nice man. But he should really set the example by speaking English while in the United States.” “El hombre no es conservador,” Bush said in Spanish of Trump in Miami, according to the Tampa Bay Times. That means, according to that newspaper, that Bush is saying of Trump: “The man is not conservative.” “Besides, he tries to personalize everything. If you’re not totally in agreement with him you’re an idiot, or stupid, or don’t have energy, or blah blah blah,” Bush continued in English, according to the Times. Trump, in his exclusive with Breitbart News, ripped that argument—that somehow he’s not a conservative. “You know, Ronald Reagan wasn’t a conservative,” Trump said. “He became a great conservative. By the time I’m finished, people will say I’m a great conservative. By the time I’m finished with the presidency, after eight years of the presidency, people will say I’m a great conservative—far greater than Jeb would ever have the ability to be.” Trump also fired back at Rubio for aiming to undercut his campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again.” The campaign slogan was used by Ronald Reagan in the 1980 campaign for the White House alongside George H.W. Bush, Jeb’s father. According to the New York Times, this week Rubio—while campaigning in Carson City, Nevada—said Trump’s campaign slogan isn’t an accurate assessment of the country. Rubio argued America is “great” now. “There’s one other candidate running, he says he’s going to make America great again,” Rubio said at a community center before a crowd of 200, according to the New York Times. “I understand what he means by that. I don’t mean that as a slight.” Rubio continued: “I would remind everyone America is great. There’s no nation on earth I would trade places with. There’s no other country I would rather be. The issue is not that we’re not great. The issue is whether we will remain great. The issue is, we can be even greater than we are now. We can be even more prosperous, more powerful.” Trump, in response, told Breitbart News that this means Rubio is complacent with where America is now—and doesn’t believe there is room for improvement in the country. Trump also called Rubio “Jeb’s plebe.” Rubio was trained by Bush in Florida politics before the two, along with 15 other Republicans including Trump, started competing against each other for the GOP nomination this cycle. Rubio and Bush have nearly identical political viewpoints on immigration and trade, and as Bush and his campaign keep slipping more and more, it’s expected the donor class paymasters will get behind Rubio down the road, because he would give them everything they want if he’s elected president, just like Bush would. “If Marco thinks that the country is great now, he’ll never be elected president because it’s not what it was and it’s not great enough—and we will make the country great again,” Trump said. “But if Marco is satisfied—I like Marco, but that means he’s satisfied. You can’t be satisfied [with where the country is now]. You have to use the word ‘again.’ It’s very important, because if he’s saying that, then that means there’s no room for improvement. That means he’s satisfied, that means he’s unelectable.” Trump thinks that no matter who the establishment puts forward as the donor class candidate—whether it be Bush, or if Bush continues failing then Rubio, or Ohio Gov. John Kasich, for instance—that “they are all controlled” by the paymasters funding their campaigns. “They are controlling the politicians—and I used to be one of those people, at the highest level, I was one of them,” Trump said. “Nobody knows the game better than I do. I think part of the reason I’m resonating with the public is that I don’t want money. I feel oftentimes foolish when people want to give me millions and millions of dollars that I’m turning them down. I feel foolish. I just hope the public appreciates what I’m doing.” Trump said that the donor class paymasters who he says are controlling the politicians like Bush and Rubio “are looking to benefit themselves or their company, whereas I’m looking only to benefit the people of the United States.” When it comes to the border, Trump again noted that he’d build a wall if elected president. “I know this: We need a wall, and we need it badly,” Trump told Breitbart News. “And it’s got to be an impenetrable wall. We’re taking in people legally, but we’re not taking in any more illegals, but we will take them in legally.” When it comes to the next debate, Trump said he’s prepared for it, but he does “hope I’m treated better than I was at the last debate.” “Everyone said I won the last debate—according to Drudge and Time, Drudge and Time did a poll and they said I won,” Trump said. “That’s Time Magazine. Yeah, I’ve bee, I think, preparing my whole life for the next debate.” Trump also told Breitbart News that he has noticed even more, since he first brought the line back up earlier in the campaign, that the “silent majority” is back in business in America. He said the crowds of people—hundreds of thousands, millions of folks nationwide—getting involved in the process prove that the “silent majority” is not “silent” anymore. The phrase “silent majority” was made popular by Richard Nixon. “There is a great silent majority, and the silent majority is not so silent anymore,” Trump said. “They want to see America become great again.” “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||
