Trump keeps saying "I'm smah't". Well, you know what I've noticed: all the smart people I know are for Trump. Seriously! It's because they know he is the only NON Establishment candidate out there. But the dummies don't seem to get it.
I said we don't want Trump to take us TO anywhere. We want him to take us OUT of somewhere.
When
he asked what I meant I said he will take us OUT of Establishment
politics and that is all we have longed for for so many many years. We
want a government by us and for us and of us, not by, of and for a bunch
of shyster old cronies looking out for themselves.
We
are like a monkey in a cage at the pet shop. A lot of pet owner
candidates are promising the monkey to take him here or there or
wherever in his shiny cage. Some of them promise to pick up the cage and
bring it to nice parks, tourist attractions, beautiful sights, girl
monkeys, etc. But the monkey just sadly shakes his head and curls up in a
ball.
Because the monkey is still in the cage. And yet they can't figure out why he is so unhappy.
Then years later, a smah't person comes along and says: Hey, little Buddy. Let me open that cage door and set you free.
The monkey perks up and starts dancing and prancing and jumping up and down because he is so happy! He loves this guy and will follow him anywher!
And
that monkey, my friend, is you and me. We don't want to be taken for a
ride by Jeb or Kasich or Christie or whoever. We just long to be free.
And THAT is why we love Donald Trump.Don HankFrom:

Donald Trump dramatically escalated his feud with rival Ted Cruz on Monday,
threatening to sue the Texas senator over his eligibility for office if
he does not retract alleged “lies” about Trump’s positions – and
calling on the Republican National Committee to intervene on two fronts.
The
billionaire businessman wants the RNC to pressure Cruz, and also stop
allowing so many donors at the debates. If the RNC does not “get its act
together,” Trump warned, they would be violating the “pledge” he signed
to support the eventual GOP nominee.
I think he should sue.
Cruz either has a CRBA from the State Department or he does not. For a citizen born outside the United States that document is the proof
that you were born as a citizen of the United States, just as a US
birth certificate is the proof that you were born here as a citizen if
you are born in the United States, as I've written on before.
But there's more here that Trump has every right to be angry over. First, the GOP misappropriated his name and likeness to solicit donations for the GOP. They recently solicited donations allegedly for "Trump supporters" but the funds they were soliciting will go to the GOP generally, not to Trump's campaign, and they did it without his permission.
Absent some sort of formal agreement by Trump to allow his name and likeness to be used in this fashion that's an outrageous abuse and breaks a number of laws, including the fact that the GOP needs a photo release for the picture they used since it was used for commercial, not editorial, purpose.
The
law on such is quite-clear, incidentally. I can take a photo of you
(provided I have or acquire the copyright) and use it for editorial purpose, or for that matter I can sell the image as a work of art. But if I use that image to sell something (e.g. a brand of soda, a brand of shirt, etc) then I have to have a release from every person in the picture or I've violated your rights and the person who does the advertising (not the photographer) can be sued and willprobably lose.
Well, GOP? Where's your photo release? You don't have one, do you?
That's what I thought.
Then there is the stacking of debate audiences, "strategic" placement of microphones in the stacked portions of the audience and worse, blatant electronic "enhancement" of both boos and cheers, all of which has happened in the last two "contests."
Remember that Trump signed his pledge to the Republican Party under the specific condition that his candidacy be treated fairly.
Any one of the above would be a clear violation of that constraint and thus free him from his pledge. But he doesn't have one violation, he has at least three, never mind the phony GOP solicitation made under his name but for the GOP's benefit, not his.
There's a basic reality that the GOP has to face here: The establishment GOP is not in charge when it comes to Trump, nor for that matter, are they in charge when it comes to voters.
They may think they
are but we have a candidate in the race this time around who is more
than willing to stick up the middle finger when it's called for -- and
in my opinion that line was crossed quite some time ago with all the
phony promises of "reducing spending", "erasing the deficit", "enforcing
the rule of law" and similar flat-out lies.
As for people like Starnes who wish to blame Republican voters for "screwing this up" by refusing to vote for Romney ¡?$#" you with a rusty chainsaw. Neither I or anyone else is under any obligation to vote for anyone or to vote at all.
The party that wishes me to vote for their candidate instead of either staying home or voting for Cthulu has the affirmative obligation to run a candidate worth voting for, and if they cannot be bothered to do that they deserve to be destroyed as a political force in this or any other nation.

Why the problem with the first one?
There’s a difference between dirty, underhanded, even illegal tricks, and a perfectly valid smart business decision.
