Stupid political slogans.
I remember when I first heard Donald's slogan come out. I was thinking, "This has got to be a punch to the solar plexus of politicians." Especially the Obama administration and it's followers.

I mean, it is saying that America y**== is no longer great ---> which leads people to question y:-/2 why somebody with such influence would make that his mission statement ---> the line of thinking leads back to the highest office in the land y*-:) ---> ouch. :fryingpan:

I can't imagine any prominent politician being so thin-skinned as to be offended by Trump's campaign slogan, or by much of anything else, really. We're talking about people who compete in popularity contests in order to get a job manipulating how the rest of us see reality in order to accomplish their personal and political goals. The sensitive types get weeded out long before they get a chance to run for Federal office.

Besides, any honest observer will take note of the fact that GWB broke everything that could be broken before he handed the keys over to Obama. Obama made plenty of mistakes, but let's take a second and recall that when he took over the economy was in the toilet, Bush had just completed a massive bank bailout (that uninformed Republicans now blame on Obama), we were in two wars (one of which was completely pointless and destabilized the entire Middle East), FOX News had preemptively declared his presidency a failure, and Mitch McConnell publicly stated that his number one goal was to block everything that Obama ever did in order to ensure that he was a one-term president. A lot of the people that currently call him a failed president actually made up their minds long before election day.

All that said, I have to give Trump credit where credit is due. His slogan is perfect for this political climate. He's going after enraged, low-information voters and his populist rhetoric is bringing them out in droves.

But he still gets crushed in a general election.

Edward,

You just don't get it! God told Cruz's father that Lyin Ted will be the next president. Hillary has no chance fighting against God.

And now satanists are ticked with those comparing Cruz to the Lucifer (by the last House Speaker Boehner, no less: http://www.politico.com/story/2016/04/j ... fer-222570 - as they see that as a slap at the devil. I mean, I knew many Republicans were not fond of Cruz, but WOW!

I read that earlier. Boner really laid into Cruz.

And is it an insult to Satan, to equate him with Cruz?

Is Satan really as bad of a liar as Cruz?

Yeah, I think that was wrong of him to say, that's just hyperbole to the ^363rd degree.

Does anyone know why he said that? :mrgreen: I haven't been an observant patriot lately

Yeah,I saw that too but Cruz does lie alot. It is kinda funny when Trump calls him Lyin' Ted but it is the truth and he continues to lie about Trump even now. I listened to Cruz yesterday and he is telling lies about Trump,making up things that Trump is not for and has not said. I guess he thinks he can trick people into voting for him but people can listen to Trump and know he's lying.

Man, I loathe Lyin' Ted, but I'm starting to think that Muckrakin' Scumbag Donald the Deceitful Misogynistic Race-Baiter might just be worse.

Well, no. Not worse. Nothing is worse than Ted Cruz. But The Donald might just be very nearly as bad.

The only way is if he's somehow not able to do what he's ran on.However,I doubt it because Trump is a fighter,he is'nt like wimpy Republican Presidents we've had before that won't fight back.He has had to fight both sides off in this campaign so far.We shall see.
