What’s Going On Out There?

Remember This Arizona and Utah

It was January 27th when Donald Trump gave a stark warning to Brussels Belgium, and the New York Times mocked him for it:

(January 27th New York Times) […] Asked by the Fox Business Network anchor Maria Bartiromo about the feasibility of his proposal to bar foreign Muslims from entering the United States, Mr. Trump argued that Belgium and France had been blighted by the failure of Muslims in these countries to integrate.

“There is something going on, Maria,” he said. “Go to Brussels. Go to Paris. Go to different places. There is something going on and it’s not good, where they want Shariah law, where they want this, where they want things that — you know, there has to be some assimilation. There is no assimilation. There is something bad going on.”

Warming to his theme, he added that Brussels was in a particularly dire state. “You go to Brussels — I was in Brussels a long time ago, 20 years ago, so beautiful, everything is so beautiful — it’s like living in a hellhole right now,” Mr. Trump continued. (more…)

Mr. Donald Trump speaks at Palm Beach County GOP Lincoln Day dinner (3-20-16) in a less media-frenzied climate. His remarks were more casual fitting the audience and much enjoyed.

Sean Hannity interviewed Donald Trump over the weekend while on the campaign trail in Arizona. The full interview aired last night (03/21/16) and is also below:

The New York Times / CBS have conducted a new national poll (full pdf below).  The results show candidate Donald Trump has gained an additional 11 points in the past 30 days and now leads with 46% support nationally.

74% of those polled refuse to support Ted Cruz and a full 80% of those polled refuse to support John Kasich.  When you keep in mind this poll is a selected NYT/CBS release, and when you consider this poll does not include independents, a person can reasonably presume the support for Donald Trump is factually much, much higher.

One of the internal poll results the media will refuse to highlight is how futile the #NeverTrump campaign effort has been.   The poll actually shows that more people refuse to ever support Ted Cruz than refuse to support Donald Trump. (see below)

(Via New York Times) The nationwide telephone poll was conducted March 17 to 20 on cellphones and landlines with 1,252 adults, of which 1,058 said they were registered voters, including 362 Republican primary voters and 388 Democratic primary voters. The margin of sampling error is plus or minus three percentage points for all adults; four points for all voters; six points for Republican primary voters; and six points for Democratic primary voters.

One of the best outcomes from ‘Trump-Goes-To-Washington‘ today was candidate Donald Trump being the leader who finally brings the U.S. – NATO relationship to the discussion table.

The subject was relayed by the Washington Post who also had an hour-long editorial board sit down with Mr. Trump as he visited various DC-based influence agents:

[…]   [Trump] questioned the United States’ continued involvement in NATO and, on the subject of Russia’s aggression in Ukraine, said America’s allies are “not doing anything.”

“Ukraine is a country that affects us far less than it affects other countries in NATO, and yet we’re doing all of the lifting,” Trump said. “They’re not doing anything. And I say: ‘Why is it that Germany’s not dealing with NATO on Ukraine? Why is it that other countries that are in the vicinity of Ukraine, why aren’t they dealing? Why are we always the one that’s leading, potentially the third world war with Russia.’ “

Tonight at 8:00pm the heavy political news day continues with a five candidate Presidential Town Hall hosted by CNN.

The event begins at 8:00pm EST and is scheduled through 11:00pm.

Candidates Hillary Clinton, Ted Cruz, John Kasich and Donald Trump will appear live on  CNN.  Bernie Sanders is scheduled to appear via satellite feed.  All five presidential candidates will be questioned individually by host Anderson Cooper and Wolf Blitzer – it appears most of the Q&A will be interview style.

There is not a publicly available schedule to find out the order of appearance.

The Town Hall event is being broadcast on CNN and CNNi.

When candidate Donald Trump announced his candidacy to run for President last year we knew immediately there would be a seismic shift in the political landscape.  Those who have followed politics in the last 8+ years suspected the 2016 race would inevitably boil down to Globalists -vs- U.S. Nationalists.

However, with the introduction of Mark Levin’s Conservative Review publishing a target list of those they don’t agree with, we have officially entered the realm of the absurd.  The collective ‘conservative‘ ilk within the punditry class have assembled their fascist blacklist(s) to target their opposition – and it’s not leftists, it’s us.

I doubt there has ever been a time when we have laughed so heartedly.

Too many years decades of Wall Street’s influence over legislative priorities are clearly evident for anyone not to anticipate the professional political class would view any America-First candidate as a threat to their financial motivations.  But to see the apoplectic reactions from those within the corporate conservative media is, well, pure delicious sunlight.

Candidate Donald Trump is scheduled to hold a media availability press conference at The Old Post Office, soon to be Trump International Hotel, in Washington, DC.

Amidst the public split within the GOP over Trump’s campaign, Mr. Trump will reportedly attend a meeting of Republicans, including perhaps some members of Congress, at the Jones Day law firm.

That’s slated to be followed by a press availability at his Trump International Hotel project and his day will wrap up with remarks at AIPAC, where his fellow Republican rivals will also be taking their turns on the stage. The event is scheduled to begin at 2:15pm EDT:
