Speaking on behalf of Donald Trump, Sarah Palin gave a speech last night to a Wisconsin Republican audience. Standing firmly on a platform of truth, Palin warned the mostly party (establishment) audience their decision to stand with deception in order to win an election also means placing themselves in a very precarious position.
The response from the audience to Sarah’s brutal honesty was what’s customarily known as “the collective nervousness of deceivers“.
Whenever anyone dares to tell the collective: ‘the emperor stands naked’; there’s a particular kind of autonomic group nervousness immediately evident. A group discomfort.
Such was the discomfort when Sarah Palin mentioned Senator Ted Cruz’s weak and opportunistic immigration position, and then contrast a real-life example of Cruz going to McAllen Texas (Saturday, July 19th 2014) to hand out “gift baskets” and welcome illegal alien families.
You could hear a pin-drop as an entire audience sat jaw-agape in disbelief.
When a fearless truth-teller stares down a room – the collective immediately need each other to retain their guise. Here’s an example of their initial response: (more…)
For those who are deep in the weeds on the Michelle Fields nonsense, here’s a video which essentially takes all of the various angles, video’s, audio’s, and puts them together to show how ridiculous her claims were/are.
Even if you haven’t kept up with all the column inches dedicated to this insufferably silly story, this video cuts through the chaff and hits the essential point – It’s much ado about nothing. Moonbattery
(Via Daily Mail) Republican front-runner Donald Trump’s campaign manager Corey Lewandowski has been charged with simple battery for allegedly grabbing a reporter, in a case that may hinge on a Secret Service claim that the journalist first made unwanted physical contact with the billionaire-turned-politician.
[…] a member of Trump’s Secret Service detail told DailyMail.com on Tuesday that Fields touched Trump twice – and was warned by agents to stop – before Lewandowski pulled her away.
“She crossed in between agents and our protectee after being told not to,” said the agent, who was present that night in Jupiter. (more…)
Harvey Leroy Atwater, or “Lee” as he was known, was an old-school republican political operative who was a master of the dark arts in political obfuscation, and denial.
What we are witnessing in this video, via the denials of Senator Ted Cruz, is straight from the Atwater school of political management.
When infidelities are discovered:
• Hide the spouse • Take her off the trail • Block contact • Delete Social Media • Present female spokesperson as intercepting agent for candidate • Keep interceptor with candidate at all times • Deny • Deny • Deny…. until denial is no longer a plausible option:
♦ The interceptor is to deflect attention away from the campaign. ♦ The Candidate must not answer direct questions. ♦ Reassert candidate’s humility perspective. This becomes paramount to give space if needed in phase two. Phase Two – Interceptor drops out. When/if the candidate can no longer hide the infidelity, the reasons for prior obfuscation/denial was ‘embarrassment‘. Phase Two ends with re-entry of spouse to deliver the “we will heal / together” speech. Surround candidate’s optic with friends and family; or carefully host private one-on-one interview.
Atwater’s legacy continues…. (more…)
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. (more…)
(Via ABC News) In a statement following meetings with Cuban President Raúl Castro in Havana today, President Barack Obama declared it a “new day” in U.S.-Cuban relations.
“For more than half a century, the sight of a U.S. president here in Havana would have been unimaginable. But this is a new day. Es una nueva dia,” Obama said in remarks to reporters at the presidential palace in Cuba.
While celebrating the progress in the relationship, Obama also said that the two countries continue to have important differences and that the U.S. will continue to speak out on the issue of human rights and democracy. (more…)
A gentleman named Brandom Tatum posted a video on Facebook describing his visit to a Donald Trump rally in Tucson Arizona. As he describes it was an eye-opening event for him, as he discovers the protesters are not “protesters”, but rather hate-filled, violent and nasty antagonists trying provoke confrontation.
In short, he met/discovered the ideological left-wing of politics.
Mr. Tatum also describes himself as a police officer by profession who was shocked to discover the “Black Lives Matter” movement is actually filled with violent thugs and extremely hateful anti-American activists. Go figure.
Today Donald Trump became America’s Hero for Free Speech and Free Assembly – America’s Champion!
The same organized leftist thugs who march every year against the latest social justice cause celeb, are back at it again 2016 targeting Donald Trump. This time their efforts are targeted to disrupt a Donald Trump rally in Phoenix Arizona.
The radical, and often violent, leftist thugs always show what/who they fear the most by who/what they choose to target. Today Donald Trump receives the endorsement of the Tucson Border Patrol who said:
…”Donald Trump is the only candidate who has our backs”…
Proving, yet again, that one candidate stands squarely on the side of law and order.
Donald Trump, Raphael “Ted” Cruz, Hillary Clinton and John Kasich will all appear on a live CNN presidential forum next Monday evening. Bernie Sanders will also appear via a remote feed from the campaign trail.
CNN is hosting a three-hour candidate forum with Anderson Cooper and Wolf Blitzer in Washington DC. Each candidate interview will be conducted separately, so they will not be debating each other. All of them, sans Sanders, are in town for the pro-Israel AIPAC conference.
The event appears to be a rather significant ratings victory for CNN because Fox News tried to host a GOP presidential debate but failed miserably due to poor timing overlap with the AIPAC conference and planned speeches. Donald Trump declined the Fox debate due to scheduling conflict with AIPAC and in turn Kasich backed away in response to Trump’s decision.
This forum event by CNN is a rather large poke in the eye to their competitor Fox News.
