Admit it, you want the Hildabeast to win just to spite him. Trump called out a judge for bias and lack of integrity as grounds to recuse himself. Any good lawyer would do the same. The sitzpinklers panicked and decided to to the Lefties' dirty work, screaming, "Racist", because Trump wanted a fair shake.
Oh, and do we think he would have gotten any more support from the Whigs had he complained about the stormtrooper tactics in San Jose? The noise from the One True Ted and the rest of the collaborationists says otherwise.
Ed, I want Hillary to lose. I am not a fan of Trump, but I would rather he win over Hillary. Hillary is an evil witch.
Trump won NJ and California? He was running unopposed. So Fucking What.
He has to win the general. This is not the way to do it.
I could care less if he calls the judge bias. It very well may be the judge is biased (I do not know enough about that case). That issue could have been handled a dozen better ways than he handled it. I am not saying he shouldn't fight back, but fight back smart.
He should have spent the last week beating the tar out of Hillary and sowing division between her and Sanders. He had a jobs report and the lefty riots in San Jose (now that was really racism). Instead he floundered around about the judge being "Mexican" and managed to even get into it with Newt. Of course Trump's enemies jumped all over it too.
You are a true believer. I get it. But he is fucking this up and needs to start acting like this a general election. He needs more votes than Hillary to win.
Ed, I want Hillary to lose. I am not a fan of Trump, but I would rather he win over Hillary. Hillary is an evil witch.
Trump won NJ and California? He was running unopposed. So Fucking What.
So where were all the NeverTrumpers? I thought they were the real Republican Party. Trump is where he is because he won more elections (not stole, but won) than any of the others. Obviously, the base likes him.
He has to win the general. This is not the way to do it.
According to whom? This is the guy who was going to fade before last September, the guy who wouldn't win a single primary.
Your guys' way wasn't as good.
He should have spent the last week beating the tar out of Hillary and sowing division between her and Sanders. He had a jobs report and the lefty riots in San Jose (now that was really racism).
Um, last I looked, he was doing that. Your people didn't care. They were too busy saying the San Jose riots were his fault. Calling him a racist because he criticized Susana Martinez.
Remember?
Your side is doing more to help Hillary than to hurt her. That's what will lose the election.
Ed, I love you man, but get your head out of your ass. Who cares about NeverTrumpers. Cruz? He is home and not an issue any more. You are being as delusional as NeverTrumpers, just the flip side. You are in denial.
So Trump won California and New Jersey, both those states are almost certainly going to Hillary in November. I have not checked the numbers, but I am going to guess GOP turn out was not that high.
You know who the NeverTrumpers really are? Those people who push Hillary toward 270 electoral votes in the general. Trump needs to deny Hillary that. Trump has challenges already, he has a few tough states that are must wins for him (certainly Ohio and Florida and possibly some combination of Virginia, Pennsylvania and other states).
Your side? That is your problem. I could give a shit about sides (other than being against Hillary). I am certainly not on the NeverTrump nonsense (you perhaps missed my posts on San Jose and getting into it with Neil Stevens). I am not on the side of lunatics like Neil cheering on leftists mobs beating up Trump supporters. I want Hillary to lose. If Trump is the guy to do it, maybe he could not fuck this up.
I am not a Trump fan. So what. But I despise Hillary. Trump did not help himself this week. If he does not beating her up on the economy, her corrupt foundation (which is a way bigger scandal than Trump U) and her creepy serial abusing husband he is doomed. He managed to help Hillary by turning the focus on Trump negatives.
I think you mistake Trump for the people who want him to fail.
McConnell and the rest spent the week doing Hillary's dirty and so did you. Trump has a right to criticize Susana Martinez and Curiel, but the NeverTrumpers jumped on the race bandwagon. they did the media's work for them. They made the issue, not the Left (we can argue who would have spoken up otherwise).
And, yes, there are sides. McConnell and Co were trying one last time to hijack the convention and you went with them. You can call 'em like you see'em, but you better realize Ryan and the rest are for the Uni-Party.
ed, as much as Hugh Hewitt and the GOPe are discussing dumping Trump, it is not going to go anywhere. Trump is the nominee. He has the votes and delegates.
It certainly would be a wild time if the GOPe did it (of course it would elect Hillary too), but Mitch McConnell is ultimately a fat coward and (I predict) won't do it. What the GOPe will do is go all passive aggressive on Trump if they think their positions are being dragged down (and that will help Hillary that way).
Stop worrying about people not being true believers. Not everyone can have the love you have for Trump. That is never going to happen, a lot of Trump's support will always be "the lesser of evils" to Hillary. Good news is Hillary really is an evil witch. I suggest Trump runs with that 24/7.
I think Trump has a good chance to win. Unknown factors and stories between now and the election will have a much greater effect than this tempest in a taco bowl. Most of those have a better chance of devastating Hillary than Trump. A terrorist attack by an illegal immigrant migrant sneaked into the country by Obama. An indictment of Hillary. Or better yet an referral by the FBI calling for an indictment and the refusal of the Justice Department to go forward and the resignation in protest of the head of the FBI. An assignation attempt on Trump. The murder of Trump supporters by criminal Mexicans waving Mexican flags. Things that even the sleaze bag media can not cover up or ignore.
I would lay 3 to 1 that one of those things will happen before the election.
The sleaze ball media will continue to do their best to cover it all up. Look at how Bloody Megyn Kelly edited the tape to cut out how Brad Thor and Glen Beck were talking about assassinating Trump. They will do anything to defeat him. He needs to keep pounding them and letting the people know what kind of evil lying sacks of shit they are. If he turns around and acts nice like he did with Bloody Megyn they will just turn around and bite him again.
You can't turn snake into a pet. It just doesn't work.
I am not saying Trump should not be on the offensive, he should be on the offensive all the time.
I am saying he needs to be smart who he is fighting. This is not about playing nice with Megyn Kelly or CNN or any crap like that. The GOPe will always be snakes, so what? This is about focusing the attacks on Hillary and controlling the narrative. His whole focus has to be on winning in November, nothing else should matter for Trump.
When they try to get him off message, like with Trump U, spin that around and point out how the Clinton Foundation is a crime syndicate and complete fraud (he did that last night in his speech). More of that. Hammer her on the economy and the shitty job reports.
Troop is right, Trump can win this. Obama did a masterful job on destroying Romney with a thousand little cuts leading up to the election. Romney could have still won, but gave up fighting back (and he lost, like the loser he is). Trump is never going to lay down like Mittens, but he is easily provoked and get side tracked too easily by distractions (like Trump U).
I assume Trump is getting screwed by that judge in that case, but you can fight back against that without being hamfisted about it. And if you think it is about identity politics, at least be smart enough to point that out when you do attack the judge. I would have left that issue to the lawyers to fight and focused on the big issue, which is #CrookedHillary.
This week was a lost opportunity. He cannot afford more of this nonsense.
The point is that this is a political hit and people have to be made aware of it.
Not only to rebut the hatchet job they'll try to do on him, but to make the public aware of just how crooked the bad guys are and why they're willing to do to stop Trump.
They want to paint him as a gazillionaire who loves to stick it to the little guy, and all the people he's had to fight, those in the blogosphere included, can't wait to help. So it's important to shoot that down. They're trying to paint a picture of him early on nd he has to kill it now.
The fact is that the GOPe and the #NeverTrumpers are traitors to the people who vote in the Republican primaries. Douchenozzle Hugh Hewitt has come out today demanding that the convention change the rules. Why? Because he disagrees with something Trump said about the judge who is handling his lawsuit. These people have no shame. They need to be squashed just like Hillary needs to be squashed.
You know what they are demanding? That Trump become them. That Trump stop attacking political correctness. That he stop telling the truth about Hillary and Bill and their crimes. That it is not "Presidential." They are the real problem. They are the termites in the Republican platform. The liberals will always be the enemy. But these mooks are the Vichy French. Shit they are even named French.
What did I tell you guys. The GOPe is now acting like a long suffering girlfriend that things she can change her boyfriend. Trump is not a beta like you guys are. They just don't see it. They can't get past their rose colored beta lenses.
NeverTrumpers and Hewitt are just doing what they are doing. They can't help themselves.
Let's face facts, had Cruz won the nomination, a lot of Trumpkins would have stormed off and gone home. Donald Trump would have done that.
The fight is with Hillary, Trump has to either win it or lose (and die a loser like Mittens or John Kerry, or corpulent Al Gore). NeverTrumpers are irrelevant at this point. All the chiding in the world is not going to make Neil Stevens do what you wish him to do.
Hewitt is demanding that the party change the rules after the race has been run because he doesn't like the result. I'm looking for the best word or phrase to describe that demand. Several come to mind. I'll just go with poor sportsmanship. It's better for my blood pressure than the others.
"It is the intent and purpose of these rules to encourage and allow the broadest possible participation of all voters in Republican Party activities at all levels and to assure that the Republican Party is open and accessible to all Americans."
Hugh Hewitt just hopes that Mitt Romney runs (Hewitt ♥ Romney). I think the chance of the GOP getting rid of Trump at the convention is less than 5%. Why? Reince Priebus talked Donald Trump down from attacking the Trump U judge. The GOPe are cowards and will come along and get along.
Hewitt is demanding that the party change the rules after the race has been run because he doesn't like the result. I'm looking for the best word or phrase to describe that demand. Several come to mind. I'll just go with poor sportsmanship. It's better for my blood pressure than the others.
"This race comes down to Trump having to beat Hillary."
True, but the anti-Trump Jihad does affect his support with the general public and can't help but cost him votes. Call him the Devil often enough and loud enough and those potential voters only loosely attached to the campaign will begin to see him with horns. Possibly enough of them to turn a close election in Clinton's favor.
Since those "comservatives" have no realistic alternative to Trump as nominee you could almost believe that's the plan.
Of course it is the plan. The Washington Generals don't go out and proclaim that their games with the Globetrotters are fake. They pretend like they are in it to win it when in fact they are bought and paid for stooges.
There are several reasons for the extremity of the resistance to Trump on the right. I don't doubt at all that in some cases money is the prime motivator.
After all, it's the Clintons and the left on the other side.
Evi, you know what I didn't like about that scene? It was utterly inaccurate with respect to how a Thompson Machine Gun was fired. They are unwieldy and those shots were awfully clean only hitting the torso. If that was remotely accurate, with that many rounds being fired, he would have been turned to paste and most likely would be missing half of his head.
Very true. I have seen Jimmy Cahn say he was worried about that scene given the F/X guy told him it was by far the most squibs ever used (at that time). That seems hard to believe (the Wild Bunch came out in 1969), but it is what it is.

Don't get sucked in by the NeverTrumpers, NRO, Hugh Hewitt or anyone else.
This race comes down to Trump having to beat Hillary.
He either does it or is defeated by Cankles.
I don't want Neil Stevens to do anything. I want to destroy him and the website that he suckles at. But hey that's just me. I hold a grudge.
Good thing that Donnie is a lot kinder than me. Or at least they better hope so for their sakes.

There's always sore loser, creep, jerk, baby, wuss, wimp.
PS We all know what the race is. Trump won doing it his way, partly because it drives the Lefties nuts.
I knew I could depend on Ed to help out.
