The press conference was good. The aspects of Jeb Bush and Eric Cantor endorsement well placed. The pressure upon Wall Street (Hedge Fund Super-PACs) continues; this is specifically to retain pressure on Jeb’s RNC/GOPe financiers, and smart strategy:
Mike Huckabee has a weird spike in this poll. However, the biggest problem for Jeb Bush is the continued erosion within the Republicans being polled. The “splitter” group (Fiorina, Huckabee, Christie, Rubio, Kasich, Perry, Graham, Pataki, Gilmore) cannot pull enough specific state-by-state primary support to create a pathway for Jeb if Bush remains under 15-20%.
Thanks entirely to Donald Trump, the GOPe road map is further collapsing this week.

Donald Trump is killing it in Norwood Massachussetts right now – will post video later (more tripwires triggered – Go Donald!). However, earlier today Trump was on CNN talking to Chris Cuomo But earlier today he was on CNN talking about gun control issues against the backdrop of the Roanoke shooting.
Very well presented, common sense talk – devoid of political gobbledygook.
Breitbart.Com has a very well written article about the Donald Trump and Megyn Kelly dust up. Anyone who has watched the evolution of Kelly and saw the visible pre-debate intentions on display, will see the validity in Breitbart viewpoint.
[…] The advocacy style of Kelly—who values being seen in mainstream media circles as a respectable journalist, a somehow neutral arbiter of the news—that Trump has exposed is toxic in the long run for her career and for her network. As she’s risen as a popular anchor, the network for which she works has worked overtime and spent millions of dollars to present her as a modern Walter Cronkite or Edward R. Murrow. They’ve painted a picture of Kelly as a news woman who tells America the truth, no matter what it is, in a fair and balanced manner.
But what Trump has done in a truly special manner is expose that fallacy. It’s not that Trump’s war with Kelly isn’t petty—it is, and it is probably counterproductive to be fighting with a television personality for weeks on end as he’s soaring in the polls. He could be fighting with the Mexican or Chinese governments or with Democrats or his fellow GOP candidates—all of which would be more conducive to helping him earn more supporters—but Trump isn’t someone who backs down easily–and since Kelly came after him, not the other way around, he feels like he needs to win. Well, in the regard of whether or not Kelly is in fact impartial, Trump has a decisive victory. (more…)
The latest Quinnipiac National Poll shows Donald Trump solidly in the lead of the GOP candidates with 28% (same poll July 30th was 20%). GOPe candidate Jeb Bush continues to shrink with 7% support (same poll July 30th was 10%). This explains the exasperation we are seeing amid the establishment media punditry and Republican party apparatus.
Rand Paul’s support has completely evaporated, now down to 2% nationally (same poll in July was 6%). The “splitter group” registers almost non-existent support nationally, with the exceptions of Kasich, Rubio and Fiorina. The Gilmore, Pataki, Graham, Perry, Huckabee and Christie super-PAC’s are keeping them in the race. (more…)
Former House Majority leader Eric Cantor will endorse GOPe candidate Jeb Bush today and become co-chair for Jeb’s Virginia team. The alignments within the establishment republican party apparatus become more transparent.
[…] Cantor is to introduce Bush on Thursday evening at a fundraiser in Richmond and then will appear with him Friday morning at a VFW post in Norfolk, for a town hall focused on veterans issues. (link)
It’s interesting to note the legacy media (all of them) avoiding any discussion of this endorsement considering Jim Gilmore the former Virginia governor and also a *cough* “candidate” *cough*. Jeb’s brother Marvin Bush also lives in Virginia, and another GOPe road map “splitter”, Carly Fiorina, also has homestead in the state.
Virginia was recently in the headlines because the RNC/GOPe party apparatus is considering banning any candidate from the ballots who does not swear allegiance to the Republican Party writ large. (Keep an eye out for anything from Ed Gillespie, who, in reality, holds the largest current RNC political leverage – and has been very quiet).
Cantor’s endorsement, while predictable, is merely evidence of the establishment class displaying their ultimate goal, elect Jeb Bush. So far, Donald Trump has done an outstanding job of deconstructing their previous GOPe roadmap plans. However, these guys are exponentially Machiavellian. (more…)
WASHINGTON DC – Donald Trump and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) will jointly host a rally at the Capitol in the coming weeks to protest the nuclear deal with Iran, Cruz’s campaign said on Thursday.
A date for the presidential candidates’ event has yet to be announced, but its planning underscores the strengthening ties between the two Republicans.
Trump, the clear front-runner in the GOP primary, has refrained from launching his harshest barbs at Cruz, and the Texas senator has likewise declined to join in the attacks against Trump that have become common among many of their Republican rivals. Instead, Cruz has said he is “grateful” for Trump’s focus on immigration despite the controversial nature of his comments. (more…)
Mark Levin always cuts right to the heart of the matter. Lindsey “the weasel” Graham LOL… “we have to bust through the establishment”….
Gravis Marketing, a nonpartisan research firm, conducted a random survey of 3,567 registered voters across the U.S. regarding the performance and opinions of presidential candidates. The poll has a margin of error of ± 2%. The poll was conducted for One America News Network. (LINK)
WASHINGTON DC – Democratic strategist James Carville said on Wednesday that GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump is enjoying unprecedented momentum on the 2016 campaign trail.
“He is dominating this conversation unlike anything I’ve ever seen, I guarantee you.”
Trump is not just taking on the construct of progressive ideology that has undermined the essence of American exceptionalism, he’s taking on the very selfish foundation they’ve used to sell out our country. Hell, he’s taking on all the “Decepticons” simultaneously.
In many ways Fox’s Roger Ailes and Republican Mitch McConnell carry the same ideological character trait, deception. For McConnell his deceptive ways allow him to retain power inside the DC construct. For Roger Ailes manipulation benefits his media dominance and political interests. Neither McConnell nor Ailes can actually be trusted.
It all boils down to a very familiar problem. Would you rather rid yourself of the schemer, manipulator and deceiver who claims to be your friend – and as a consequence face a visible enemy in their stead. Or do you chose to be associated within the camp of a person you can never fully trust. (more…)
