You deserve him and I hope that he wins your bloody primary.

You deserve Donald Trump.

You deserve every slight against service, every racist utterance and every look at me I'm fucking rich, you're all little people.

That your base laps up this unadulterated vileness is your own damn fault. When it served your nefarious purposes, it was all well and good.

Now that it is thrown back in your face, you whine.

You deserve him and I hope that he wins your bloody primary.

He is the conscience of the conservative

Deal with it.

You own it.

Remember Forbidden Planet? Trump isn't the conscience of the Republican party... he's the screaming, ranting, fully exposed and raw Id of the Republican party.

And much like the poor unsuspecting residents of Altair IV, he will wipe the Republican party as we know it off the map. Unlike that tempest tossed race, the party sees it coming, and knows that their only defense is a past denial of those characteristics... and that past does. Not. Exist. They'll scrub websites, try to re-word and re-spinning the past, but those damn videos and audio records will pop up to remind everyone from just whose Ego the wild toupee'd one was born.

He's driving a WEDGE into the
republican party.

Even the republicans are freaking out
about Trump, hence his threat to
run as a third party spoiler.

His tactics are textbook WEDGE POLITICS
http://www.democraticunderground.com/12779544

AND, wasn't The Donald once a Democrat???
He seem to think so....
Trump once considered himself a Democrat

(CNN)Before Donald Trump was a front-running Republican presidential candidate, the real estate mogul believed that the nation's economy ran better when Democrats were in control and that Hillary Clinton would be a strong negotiator with foreign nations.

"In many cases, I probably identify more as Democrat,"
Trump told CNN's Wolf Blitzer in a 2004 interview. "It just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans. Now, it shouldn't be that way. But if you go back, I mean it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats. ...But certainly we had some very good economies under Democrats, as well as Republicans. But we've had some pretty bad disaster under the Republicans."

Big money has their Main stream media trying to create a circus to take our attention from the faults of Hillary. She is their candidate of choice as illustrated by her allegiance to the billionaires ( Non-support for re instituting Glass-Steagall, non-opposition to Citizens United, failure to call out her donors for their oppression of our people, and a wimpy economic plan).
She somehow thinks voters actually care about her hair, when families are under the gun financially and economically all across the USA. The empress is finding out we can see she has no clothes. Her smarmy statements let us know she is very very rich and puts her own rich class first.

Sat Jul 25, 2015, 07:43 AM

Not a criticism, more a point of information.

Citizens United wanted to air a film critical of Hillary Clinton, which triggered the Supreme Court case "Citizens United vs. the Federal Election Commission".

Just wondering why she wasn't opposed to a decision that went against her? And I'm far from an expert on the subject, but the origins of Citizens United seem interesting.

I think the culmination was the Bundy militia standoff. A group of right-wing radical terrorists train their automatic weapons on American government agents and no one is arrested.

I don't think that could have happened pre-Reagan.

this............... there was one Sean Hannity supporting and bloviating on national t.v condoning that illegal act of pointing guns at federal agents, and now a right wing legislature in Nevada do what, nothing--------------- and everyone should be reminded of that fact he (Hannity) supported and encouraged the breaking of law and of scum pointing guns at federal agents.

In the aftermath and continuing saga, two of these Bundy supporters decided to go into town and murdered two officers in a pizza shop and then draped the Gadsden flag on one of the bodies, and not one peep from this right wing hypocrite Sean Hannity and his fix noise cohorts.

And when old Ronnie said the government was the problem, we see and saw the dismantling of the ATF by the right wing--no director for 4 years I believe

He should have been impeached when it was found out what he did in the arms for hostages deal.
Most of the people here in the US got duped by one of the worst actors we have ever seen.
And to boot, he was such a puppet, he had alzheimers' when in office, and they STILL elected him for a second term!

That's a LOT more than republicans that voted him in... The water in the US must have been drugged with something..

Odd thing is, I supported him as well back then.. looking back, I have no idea what the hell was wrong with me, but at the time, I most ashamedly admit.. I did.

There were plenty of people who voted against Raygun in 84. I know, I was one of them. Ronnie Rat won a lot of states by very small margins, and in those places there was evidence of Tom-Foolery going on with the elections. Yes the electoral votes matter, but you should see the actual popular vote, it was not as much of a rout as is pictured in this map. I know that a lot of folks got duped into voting for the Bedtime For Bonzo co-star, but I wasn't one of them, and I will not be duped by their propaganda... EVER.

... that you are supposed to use dog-whistle phrases, you know like the Republican party has been for 30+ years. You're not supposed to say it out loud, you have to have plausible denyability!

It's fun to watch the Republican's racism, jingoism and other unpleasant isms bite them in the butt. They earned it.

Well, BFD, Donald. You may be rich monetarily,and materially, but you are living below the poverty level in terms of class, dignity, grace, compassion, empathy, sensitivity, elegance, and basic good manners.
