Trump… The Patriot Favorite?

There’s one thing for sure… the Tea Party patriots are responding to what Donald Trump is saying in a big way. Trump is feisty, decisive, not a bit afraid of a fight, and extremely knowledgeable about money. And that’s what it’s all about. A total political outsider who tells it like it is and is well aware of the nature of the crisis we’re in.

So what’s the appeal Donald has for the Patriot Movement? It’s not difficult to figure out. All you have to do is look at the prevaricating hogwash we’re getting out of our leadership, as they twist figures and play with numbers in order to convince us they’ve actually done something great. I’ve looked at the numbers again and again… they don’t add up for me any more than they do for any of you. The only place in the world this kind of mathematics make sense is in Washville.

The Patriots are looking at the gentle machinations of our timid leadership… and the rotten sellout deal that they acceded to. Now, as has been pointed out by numerous conservative pundits, Boehner has given up his only real bargaining issue, government shutdown. And by caving in, bleating to his restive conservative membership that we have to compromise because we can’t get it all, he has just turned the high ground on the issue over to Barack Hussein Obama.

The membership doesn’t like it very much either… at least, the membership that knows why they were sent to Congress. Apparently, Boehner has had a memory lapse. I’m not the only one who noticed.

US Rep. Steve Southerland (R-Florida) said that he was going to force deeper cuts and ‘hold Boehner accountable for the promises he made to the American people’. Outstanding! That’s what the American People are looking for. Strong no-nonsense leadership that doesn’t doesn’t cave at the first threat of some liberal going hysterical about not having enough money to kill more babies.

That’s what the appeal is regarding Mr Donald Trump. Americans know he’s not afraid of a fight and won’t back down.
So, as we go into the the most critical fight of all, forcing the leadership not to increase the debt ceiling, we need to pull out all the stops.
Call, write, fax, email as many of your Republican Congress members as you can, and keep calling.

    There is zero indication Trump would do betterthan Boehner or any other Republican at this.

    After all, Trump gave to Schumer and Reid campaigns.

      excerpt:
      “but an analysis of his political donations since 1989 show a distinct support of the Democratic Party that may not go over well should Trump be serious about running for the Republican Party nomination for President.

      taken with a grain of salt.

    For the moment, conservatives don’t care about the failures of Trump in marriage and business. They like his willness to stick to the media, Obama. and the GOP establishment. It remains to be seem if Trump actually runs for President in June. For all the talk of Trump wanting to see Obama birth records, the media will be eager to unearth Trump’s business dealings and tax files.

      While that’s not the MOST clueless comment made this week it’s close. Trump has no policy positions. None. On anything. He’s got the equivalent of Ste. Sarah’s Facebook rants on some stuff but nary statement about what a problem or it’s solution might be. He’s flying under the radar on polling because of his name and hair recognition. When he actually has to put up position statements he’ll be three points below my dead white cat.

        Same problem that Arnold presented: name recognition. Some idiots will vote for the guy based on that alone.

        At least 5% within the American electorate who might have otherwise voted Republican will vote for this clown…just as they did Perot in 1992/1996. The ideal scenario is that he runs as a Republican, forces some front-runner economic policy positions to the Right in the primaries, then throws his support (AND supporters) behind our eventual candidate as we steamroll into November 2012.

        But if he has a moron attack and runs as an Independent, we’re through. He’ll take the 5-10% we need to beat Obama with him and we’ll be ice skating uphill for another 4 years we can’t afford to lose.
