Overview thoughts. The auditorium venue was absolutely structured with GOPe types. Support for Jeb Bush, and Marco Rubio was far more evident than exists in a general republican population. Party insiders within South Carolina, including Nikki Haley, obviously influenced who was within the participating audience.
There was an earlier South Carolina delegate meeting/convention prior to the debate. Insider sources on social media indicate most of the official South Carolina Republican Party delegates are pro-Rubio; many believe this is by specific GOPe design.
That explains the audience responses to both Jeb Bush an Marco Rubio.
Simultaneously, this same group (audience participating) understands the best way to eliminate Trump is to use Ted Cruz to attack him. And Ted Cruz fell for it hook, line and sinker; just like the useful, and willing, idiot he is.
Always remember the GOPe party goal (Rubio and Bush) has never changed:
….Remove Donald Trump and Ted Cruz becomes Newt Gingrich, Ben Carson becomes Herman Cain, and GOPe candidate Rubio/Bush becomes Mitt Romney circa 2012.
It begins by “removing Donald Trump“.
The battle is playing out among candidates, but it ultimately for the entire construct of the Republican Party – and the beneficiaries therein.
The GOPe, Wall Street, K-Street, and corporate U.S. interests do not want Trump any where near the presidency because he will destroy their grip on power. Those who are professional political agents of the GOPe (Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, Nikki Haley types) must do the bidding of the power structures to retain their own graft.
Two separate divisions within the GOPe: The old guard (Jeb Bush) team, and the legislative class, new guard, (Marco Rubio) team. What you saw play out tonight was the result of the professional Republican Party working earnestly to insure that only a member of their club is given the advantage.
Donald Trump is considered an insurgent.
Ted Cruz is considered a right-wing extremist useful to get rid of Trump.
Everything you saw tonight was evidence of this structure playing out.

Only in a brokered convention can delegates ignore primaries and pick who they want. Delegates that are bound must vote for who they are bound to in the first vote. If it goes to a 2nd vote they become released and are free to pick anyone they want.

DEBATE CLIP: Donald Trump Vs. Ted Cruz over Natural Born Citizen Issue – 6th GOP Debate
After Cruz’ grandstanding, nervously laughing it off and making light of a very important issue, Trump responds with valid concern of what it could do to the party: TRUMP: “The fact is, there is a big overhang. There’s a big question mark on your head. And you can’t do that to the party. You really can’t. You can’t do that to the party. You have to have certainty. Even if it was a one percent chance, and it’s far greater than one percent because…
“I mean, you have great constitutional lawyers that say you can’t run. If there was a — and you know I’m not bringing a suit. I promise. But the Democrats are going to bring a lawsuit, and you have to have certainty. You can’t have a question. I can agree with you or not, but you can’t have a question over your head.”

Anyone that thinks Cruz won this round is crazy. Trump was brilliant! He successfully made it very clear he is not worried about Cruz and that Trump’s ahead in the polls in Iowa and that he could care either way but that it was a real concern for the party. WoW! Trump handled this amazing. Cruz looked foolish and like a typical Televangelist or Snake Oil Salesman. The shiny slick look from the VITALIS in Cruz’ hair just adds to that stereotype!
Cruz bringing up Trump’s mom into it, as my guy informed me, is not wise and grounds for an a** whooping. Unwritten rule: NEVER TALK ABOUT A GUY’S MOM UNLESS YOU WANT TO GET PUNCHED. (my guy used different wording but you get the point!).

When asked about the Natural Born situation, Ted just grins like some kind of a kid running for middle school president , throws out a one liner, then looks to the crowd for applause and laughter. I for one am getting tired of his routine. If he thinks he can “ride out the problem” he can forget it. We will not stop asking, it is only going to get worse for him. No more ducking the issue, he must own up to it. Act like a man for Heavens sake.

Oh, well this is easy. Cruz has no respect for his own mother (he lies for her- putting the words into her mouth with her sitting right there, expecting her to go along) and he was taught this by his father (by the way he treated Ted’s mother/ his wife). So I think he has no comprehension that mothers are off limits.
This probably extrapolates into no respect for women. (No, I’m not a feminist) The story about him walking around outside the girls’ dorm in a bathrobe is another example. And that he was apparently so offensive, girls asked his roommates to keep (Ted) away from them.

Trump very much has a New York City blue collar style and manner about him. It is a style many people mistakenly stereotype, or don’t understand.
Trump does not have Southern charm or amiability because he is not from the South. He does not have Midwest nice because he is not from the Midwest. Folks from those places might draw the wrong conclusions because they are not from NYC, or conversant with blue collar NYC.

Their constant response to ‘Gubberment needs to fix XYZ’. Trump is not a politician.
By now, the debate dust has cleared and there is only one standing and that is Trump. So the real question is who will be the VP choice? Until Cruz is clear of the ‘Natural Born Citizen’ issue, it can’t be him and I really doubt this will be cleared up before it is time for Trump to pick. So, I have no idea who Trump will pick, but it will be great.

I disagree – well maybe not – that Cruz is too far right. If I expected him to really return America to the original intent constitution starting day one – which would require him to ignore SCOTUS beyond anything Trump would be likely to do, I would be supporting him.
But this is why we have to burn the whole GOP to the ground. The libertarians and paleocons want a much smaller government, both to be free. Is that right or left wing? Are those who don’t want the FDA to stop people from buying raw milk right or left? Are those who find relief in Marijuana and want it (not big pharma $1000 pills even if covered under Obamacare) right or left?
His wife is Wall Street bankster, CFR – which aren’t so big on the constitution. Speaking of New York values, isn’t Goldman Sachs and Merrill Lynch based in NYC?
Cruz promises to nix 5 departments, Reagan only promised two and it never happened.
Trump made the point that for ISIS, our wives, daughters, relatives and friends are considered legitimate targets, and that’s the problem – but I’m more circumspect on war. But in domestic legal matters, the entire “Establishment” (or the elite), not just the GOPe division, is breaking every rule, every rational interpretation, every idea of justice and fairness. The response of the GOP – not even all the establishment – is that we must play fair, play by the rules, if we want to change the “amendment by judge”, we have to wait and change judges, and we can only appoint stealth candidates like Roberts who may betray us, but that is all we can do.
Congress is corrupt. The Senate is corrupt. The bureaucracy is corrupt. The Courts are corrupt. Wall Street, the banks, and the 4th estate – the media – is corrupt. How can a president that follows the rules no one else is following change anything? Assume Cruz attempts to keep every promise but play by the rules – he will be steamrolled. The media will crucify him – and he won’t fight back effectively.
Trump comes off as blue-collar tough. Or farmer/rancher tough. Fair, but I expect him to fight – and “fair” is to fight by their rules, or whatever rules are effective, be it what Asia and Europe is doing on trade (they have barriers and tariffs, and play currency manipulation), what ISIS is doing, or what the rest of the corrupt government is doing.
My top three if there was only a little corruption where a president could still make a difference would be very different.
There comes a time to drop a nuclear bomb to incinerate everything and start over – the GOP is there and Trump is the bomb!

Suffice to say that when a candidate can’t respond effectively to a simple challenge to his fundamental eligibility to even be on the ballot and completely disses a state in the top 3 of electoral votes and (mainstream) media capital of the western hemisphere, even if he’s otherwise very smooth, he ain’t winning shiite.

One other thing–to all “conservative purists”–don’t care! What we want is a weapon to destroy the uniparty and the seditious globalist oligarchy that has infiltrated our government and nation. It doesn’t have to be a perfect or beautiful weapon, just effective.
Here’s an analogy–have you ever seen an old Mosin-Nagant 7.62x54R rifle. It is old and ugly as sin. Usually dirt cheap. It’s ballistics and accuracy are comparable to an M-14 or a really pretty and pricey HK-91 or FN-FAL. If you’ve seen the movie “Enemy at the Gates” or read the book, you know that old MN can be extremely effective, even against more “advanced” opponents.
Trump promises to be an effective weapon. He doesn’t need to be particularly slick, glib, or handsome to perform that function. Indeed, those attributes seem to be a hindrance. An effective weapon against the uniparty–that’s all I really want for the 8 years following the end of <0’s criminal occupation.
