I have given this one much thought this morning. After reading all the news articles, I have decided to put this video out. I just hope someone in the Trump campaign sees it. I will vote for him, as I said in the video; if he is still on the ticket in November. But, at this point, I just do not see a Trump win.
Good morning from Detroit, it’s 4:28 a.m. and my body clock has been turning somersaults as of late. So, I am up rather early. Hopefully, I get this straightened out.
This, my friends, is problematic. There is a third rail in politics and that is sexual abuse, of any sort. Both parties are that way, and if you hit that rail, you will end up without a political career. This is nothing new, it has been this way for many, many decades.
Even Pat Buchanan, who is a very sane voice in the conservative movement and one of Trump’s biggest supporters; is beginning to concede that Trump’s path to the White House might be drying up, speaking on this very subject, he says:
Trump exposed the fraudulence of the Clintons’ clucking concern for sexually abused women, brought Pence back into camp, turned the tables and changed the subject from the Trump tapes to the Trump triumph at Washington University.
Upshot: The Donald is alive.
While his path to 270 electoral votes still looks more than problematic, there is a month to go before the election, and anything can happen.
Indeed, it already has — many times.
Indeed, it is a month out, and anything can happen; it is not looking good from the realist standpoint. That being said, I am still voting for him; because I cannot, in good conscience, vote for that dreadful woman. I would be going against everything I know to be right, to do so.
If anything, it shows a desperation of the liberal-left and possibly those on the neocon right to stop this guy from being president of the United States.
I just hope it doesn’t damage Trump fatally; because I don’t think this country could handle Hillary Clinton presidency.
The Clinton campaign’s wobbly performance over the past 72 hours has set off a rash of behind-the-scenes handwringing among professional Republicans as they confront an unnerving new possibility: What if their nominee actually wins the White House?
For months, the prevailing wisdom within GOP political circles has been that Donald Trump stands little chance to win in November — and a large number of the party’s consultants, fundraisers, and operatives privately preferred it that way. Though many of them are reluctant to say so in public, they argue that a Trump presidency would fracture their party, decimate the conservative movement, and wreak havoc on the global economy (not to mention their own industry).
But now, with polls tightening and Hillary Clinton’s illness temporarily sidelining her from the campaign trail, those Republicans are expressing alarm at Trump’s sudden electoral viability.
“It’s terrifying,” said one GOP consultant, who like others spoke to BuzzFeed News on condition of anonymity. “He’s not qualified … and it’s a massive problem. I’m not a fan of Hillary Clinton, but at least I feel like some of those jobs that are required for president, she could do them.”
“It would be terrible for America, and for the world,” said another Republican strategist, referring to a prospective Trump victory. “I can’t think of one good thing that would come of it.”
A third Republican said that after watching the Clinton campaign’s missteps in recent days, “I’m curled up in the fetal position watching The West Wing and drinking a basketful of deplorable liquor.”
To which I say bluntly, “Let the bastards panic.” These are the people who gave us the George W. Bush Presidency, these are the people who gave us the Iraq War and sold it as being a necessary act of freedom; which we all know now, was a load of bunk. These are the people who gave us the bailout of the big banks. These are the globalist neoconservatives; who are as about Conservative, as I am a communist. Yes, these are the fake conservatives that have run that party for many years.
Yes, let them panic, let them clutch their pearls and weep for what they are about to lose. Let them wail and moan for the foolishness that they committed during the Bush-era. Now, it is time to take our Country back from these elitist swine and give it back to the people, who work so hard to keep it.
It is stories like this one here, that make me glad that I am, and always will be a Trump supporter. I admit, there are things about Trump that I simply do not like; but to see these elitist pigs get what is coming to them, it is more than worth it to me to see Trump win this Presidency.
Donald Trump’s campaign CEO Stephen Bannon was branded an anti-Semite by the same ex-wife who claimed he choked her, court documents reveal.
Mary Louise Piccard said in a 2007 court declaration that Bannon didn’t want their twin daughters attending the Archer School for Girls in Los Angeles because many Jewish students were enrolled at the elite institution.
“The biggest problem he had with Archer is the number of Jews that attend,” Piccard said in her statement signed on June 27, 2007.
“He said that he doesn’t like the way they raise their kids to be ‘whiny brats’ and that he didn’t want the girls going to school with Jews,” Piccard wrote.
“I told him that there are children who are Jewish at (a competing school), and he asked me what the percentage was. I told him that I didn’t know because it wasn’t an issue for me as I am not raising the girls to be either anti-Semitic or prejudiced against anyone,” she wrote.
Bannon asked his ex-wife if it bothered her that a second school, the Willows Community School, used to be a Temple.
And while checking out yet another school, Bannon asked the director during a sit down why there were “so many Chanukah books in the library.”
“At the time, Mr. Bannon never said anything like that and proudly sent the girls to Archer for their middle school and high school education.” a spokeswoman for Bannon told the Daily News.
Donald Trump’s new presidential campaign chief is registered to vote in a key swing state at an empty house where he does not live, in an apparent breach of election laws.
Stephen Bannon, the chief executive of Trump’s election campaign, has an active voter registration at the house in Miami-Dade County, Florida, which is vacant and due to be demolished to make way for a new development.
“I have emptied the property,” Luis Guevara, the owner of the house, which is in the Coconut Grove section of the city, said in an interview. “Nobody lives there … we are going to make a construction there.” Neighbors said the property had been abandoned for several months.
Bannon, 62, formerly rented the house for use by his ex-wife, Diane Clohesy, but did not live there himself. Clohesy, a Tea Party activist, moved out of the house earlier this year and has her own irregular voting registration arrangement. According to public records, Bannon and Clohesy divorced seven years ago.
Bannon previously rented another house for Clohesy in Miami from 2013 to 2015 and assigned his voter registration to the property during that period. But a source with direct knowledge of the rental agreement for this house said Bannon did not live there either, and that Bannon and Clohesy were not in a relationship.
Bannon, Clohesy and Trump’s campaign repeatedly declined to answer detailed questions about Bannon’s voting arrangements. Jason Miller, a Trump campaign spokesman, eventually said in an email: “Mr Bannon moved to another location in Florida.” Miller declined to answer further questions.
…and then, there is this; which is just plain…..odd? 😮
Appearing on The Apprentice with Donald Trump required agreeing to a series of odd and invasive demands regarding sex, nudity, and food consumption. According to a copy of an NBC contract reviewed by The Daily Beast, contestants had to agree to be filmed, “whether I am clothed, partially clothed or naked, whether I am aware or unaware of such videotaping, filming or recording.”
2016 is the first election in American history in which lowbrow entertainment and politics have merged to such a degree that they are nearly indistinguishable. The requirements for The Apprentice contestants, while almost certainly not mandated by Trump himself, underscore just how strange this brave new world is.
Now, at first blush, I would normally say, “Ha Ha! He’s a liberal, he gets what’s coming to him!” However, in this case, I will refrain from much nonsense. This below is a perfect example as to why I simply refuse to blog about rumors, gossip and such.
Just so we’re being completely transparent here, you should know this:
This is being written under duress because I don’t have enough money to fight a legal battle against the Trump machine. Yesterday, I wrote a story based on Melania Trump allegedly having been an escort or paid sex worker when she arrived in New York. A few hours later, the owner of Liberal America received an email threatening us with legal action if we didn’t do as the Trump attorneys instructed — remove the “false statements.” So this is my apology.
First of all, I’m very very sorry that I wrote an article about the past of Melania Trump. I got my information from reputable sources and reported on what was being reported there, but apparently that isn’t good enough to pass muster in the version of American freedom of the press envisioned by Mr. Trump and his team of legal vultures.
Additionally, I’m also sorry that the personal image of the wannabe first lady is so insecure that she feels the need to send her legal hell-hounds chasing after small, independent journalists such as me. I had no idea I was such a threat to the Trump campaign or family. Imagine my surprise.
Andrew Bradford goes on:
But most of all I’m sorry that in Donald and Melania Trump’s view of how this republic works, they think it’s in keeping with the spirit of the First Amendment to threaten, intimidate, and harass reporters. Just the fact that they immediately felt the need to get lawyers involved proves that they don’t believe in preserving, protecting, or defending the Constitution, even though every President has to make a pledge to do so when he or she takes the oath of office. In Donald Trump’s world, the Constitution only applies to those who can afford to hire expensive legal mouthpieces.
It is quite telling about Trump isn’t it?
Here’s the official document:
It is going to be a long election season folks. 🙄 I do not recall Ronald Reagan threatening to sue anyone for something that was said, that he did not like.
Allegations of antisemitism have surfaced against one of Donald Trump’s foreign policy advisers, raising further questions about the guidance the Republican presidential nominee is receiving.
Joseph Schmitz, named as one of five advisers by the Trump campaign in March, is accused of bragging when he was Defense Department inspector general a decade ago that he pushed out Jewish employees.
The revelations feed two themes that his opponent Hillary Clinton has used to erode Trump’s credibility: That he is a foreign policy neophyte, and that his campaign, at times, has offended Jews and other minorities.
Schmitz, who is a lawyer in private practice in Washington, says the allegations against him are lies. All three people who have cited the remarks, including one who testified under oath about them, have pending employment grievances with the federal government.
Daniel Meyer, a senior official within the intelligence community, described Schmitz’s remarks in his complaint file.“His summary of his tenure’s achievement reported as ‘…I fired the Jews,’ ” wrote Meyer, a former official in the Pentagon inspector general’s office whose grievance was obtained by McClatchy.
Meyer, who declined to comment about the matter, cited in his complaint another former top Pentagon official, John Crane, as the source and witness to the remarks. Crane worked with Schmitz, who served as inspector general between April 2002 and September 2005. – Source: Donald Trump foreign policy adviser accused of anti-Semitic remarks | McClatchy DC
Donald Trump had better dump this guy and I mean quick. Because as you all well know, there is an Unwritten rule in politics and it is best described like this:
Thou shalt not speak ill of the Jews, thou shalt not do anything to harm the Jews, and thou shalt not even mention the Jews.
Otherwise, Thou shalt not have a political career and thou shalt be destroyed by the political left and the political right.
If Donald Trump is even remotely wise at all when it comes to politics and running a presidential campaign, he will dismiss this guy, as his foreign policy advisor and put as much distance between his campaign and this man.
Otherwise, I’ll be sitting here sometime next year bemoaning the fact that Hillary Clinton is now president as well as most of the Republican Party and Grassroots conservatives.
Antisemitism; whether perceived or real, is considered the third rail in politics and it is not acceptable in general quarters any longer.
I just hope and pray that Donald Trump is smart enough to know this.
In case you all haven’t noticed, I really haven’t been writing about politics at all, here as of late.
Quite frankly, I am totally burned out on Politics as a whole. I guess the burnout started after 2012, when Mitt Romney lost and it’s not really gotten any better.
Quite honestly, I really don’t know if Donald Trump even has a chance at winning in 2016. What with hiring of the guy, who basically runs the conservative version of Pravada; also known as Breitbart. I just don’t see how people are going to take him seriously.
Then there’s his statement about the American intelligence system. Can you think of a more boneheaded statement to make if you’re running for president? “I want to be your president, but, I don’t trust the American intelligence system”;that has to be the most tone-deaf, ignorant, statement that anyone could make who was running for president.
Then, there’s that every Republican who has any sort of influence in the party, is basically blasting Trump and then endorsing Hillary Clinton. Sorry, but that’s a death sentence for a campaign, when your own people do not trust your ability to lead the country and endorsed someone, who is basically the sworn enemy of the Republican Party.
Then there’s the media, now we all know that the media; except maybe for Fox News channel, is biased against Donald Trump. That’s a given in politics, I totally understand that.
However, I happen to believe that the movements of the Trump campaign here in the last few months, combined with the Republican Party establishment’s literal turning on Donald Trump left and right….I just don’t think he has the ability to win the presidency and that my friends is a depressing thing and makes me not really want to blog at all.
As an independent Baptist and as a Christian and as someone who used to vote Democrat and finally threw up my hands in disgust and walked away and joined the ranks of Pat Buchanan, Chuck Baldwin and many of the other people who still believe in this country: I have to say there are dark days ahead. I just hope we can survive them. 😔😟
WILMINGTON, N.C. — Donald J. Trump on Tuesday appeared to raise the possibility that gun rights supporters could take matters into their own hands if Hillary Clinton is elected president and appoints judges who favor stricter gun control measures.
Repeating his contention that Mrs. Clinton wanted to abolish the right to bear arms, Mr. Trump warned at a rally here that it would be “a horrible day” if Mrs. Clinton were elected and got to appoint a tiebreaking Supreme Court justice.
“If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks,” Mr. Trump said, as the crowd began to boo. He quickly added: “Although the Second Amendment people — maybe there is, I don’t know.”
Oblique as it was, Mr. Trump’s remark quickly elicited a wave of condemnation from Democrats, gun control advocates and others, who accused him of suggesting violence against Mrs. Clinton or liberal jurists. Bernice A. King, daughter of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., called Mr. Trump’s words “distasteful, disturbing, dangerous.”
Mrs. Clinton’s running mate, Senator Tim Kaine of Virginia, expressed disbelief. “Nobody who is seeking a leadership position, especially the presidency, the leadership of the country, should do anything to countenance violence, and that’s what he was saying,” Mr. Kaine said in Austin, Tex. He called Mr. Trump’s remark “a window into the soul of a person who is just temperamentally not suited to the task.”
And Dan Gross, the president of the Brady Campaign and Center to Prevent Gun Violence, which has endorsed Mrs. Clinton, said Mr. Trump’s statement was “repulsive — literally using the Second Amendment as cover to encourage people to kill someone with whom they disagree.”
“For Trump, violence has become a standard talking point, a common punch line, and even a campaign strategy,” Mr. Gross said.
Paul D. Ryan, the Republican House speaker who has had a tense relationship with Mr. Trump, told reporters on Tuesday night that the remarks sounded “like a joke gone bad.”
He added: “You should never joke about that. I hope he clears it up quickly.”
Mr. Trump and his campaign did not treat his remark as a joke; instead, they insisted he was merely urging gun rights supporters to vote as a bloc against Mrs. Clinton. “The Second Amendment people have tremendous power because they are so united,” he told a CBS affiliate in North Carolina late Tuesday.
Here’s the video of Trump explaining himself:
The really funny party is that Hillary Clinton said the same very thing about Obama in 2008. Here is Keith Olbermann talking about it:
I wonder if the media will bring this up? Don’t count on it.
In most electoral campaigns that go sour, the panic-driven fission doesn’t achieve critical mass until the mid-to-late autumn. Donald Trump’s presidential campaign is already there, and it’s only August.
Trump has shown himself to be incapable of strategically retreating from losing fights, and his feud with a Gold Star family of a Muslim Bronze Star recipient followed this pattern. As the terrible news cycles mounted and Trump’s Republican allies began openly expressing their dissatisfaction with the course on which their party’s presidential nominee was set, the Trump campaign began to reveal how unstable a compound it was.
That’s Noah Rothman, who used to work for HotAir.com. Noah’s not wrong about that either. This is bad. Trump either needs to gethis act together or turn it over to Mike Pence and get out of the race. Because there are alot of people; myself included that wanted to see Trump turn America around and he is doing idiot nonsense like this. It is asinine and it is going to cost us in November.
It is just pretty darned bad, when a committed Neocon and a populist conservative/paleocon type agree on something. 🙄
