Strange Bedfellows Supporting Trump
Posted: Mon Dec 21, 2015 5:48 pm
My current analysis of the U.S. presidential candidates:
Very strange the people who ALL want Trump to be the Republican nominee for the next election:
1) The press! Wow, the press, you say. Absolutely! First off, because they love the attention he gives their newspapers, blogs, TV shows, etc. Why? His love of saying outrageous things - things that show a lot of savvy in how they tap into conservative anger - actually, anger across the board - as he's saying things that other politicians won't dare. Now, he's kind of like a very rich, high-school loud mouth, thin on substance of his views, future policies, he has very little to no experience with diplomacy, certainly not about military matters. And, he's not truly a conservative. But he DOES know how to tap into the understandable anger people have about stupid politicians - of both parties. But mostly the press loves him because most of those in media think his shoot from the hip style, his arrogance, his buffoon-like posturing, his total lack of being sensitive in how he talks about people - much less being PC - make him less appealing to voters who are more feelers (as opposed to pure thinkers), meaning that Hillary might well beat him. And because more than a few polls show that Hillary could beat Trump, but not Cruz or Rubio. So, the press loves him. He's outrageous, hilarious, and probably, unelectable. Maybe.
2) Democrats and their party's officials - same deal, because Hillary can likely beat him.
3) Apparently, Republicans who just helped approve this sickening $1.1 trillion dollar spending bill that no one knows squat about what's actually in it, all the goodies slipped in, etc. People who are conservative are livid that the Republicans got nothing in the sack (between their legs). The ONLY thing the Republicans had going for them was to put the brakes on unbalanced budgets, out of control spending, the continuous raising of the debt ceiling. But they let the threats of being blamed for any government shutdown have them running scared (Democrats: "Can't you just hear them, 'Those big Republican meanies, they shut down the government and so my government check is gonna be delayed.'" So, the Republicans caved, but did so without using any willingness to leverage their ability to impact budget and spending, they instead, just rolled over. So, the current Republican leadership has virtually handed Trump the nomination, as people are sick over this spending bill.
But the mainstream Republicans are VERY scared that Trump will be the nominee. He doesn't need them. He certainly doesn't need their money-raising ability. They are also extremely scared that Trump might well run as a third party candidate - meaning, you got it! The First Dude will be Bill Clinton. Which will be scarier than that little girl in "Poltergeist," when she says, "Theeeeere Baaack!"
BTW, I don't like Trump, he's a rich hotdog whose mouth and impulsiveness is likely to cause huge problems. He's no conservative. He lacks the proper experience (as if Barry O had it ). He's milked and played on both sides of the political aisle. HOWEVER, all of the Republicans are far better than Hillary or Bernie what's his name. Whatever, it's starting to look like Trump vs. Hillary. Funny, Hillary is in so much legal trouble - could she potentially pardon HERSELF?
