Republicans Launch New Offensive to Take Down Donald Trump

[sandorski]

Didn't we already try that?

Isn't that where the term Political Boss came from?

Smoke filled rooms where the fat cats (not the voters) decided who the candidates would be?

Don't know. It could be setup by Law in a certain why. Like Members of the party would all vote in an open verifiable way and Membership would be a nominal fee affordable by most. In the end whatever candidate is chosen by the party the voting public chooses them or rejects them.

Trump fires a warning shot again. Doesn't outright mention a PAC gunning for him but does say he wants to be treated fairly.

And Hillary is a better choice? What a fucking joke!

So pretty much a normal presidential election.

Post 47. The way it's going now, Trump has the momentum. If the Republicans want to beat him, they can't play fair. If they don't play fair, Trump runs as an independent. Only 70 days until the Iowa primary.

Clinical trials patient for experimental drugs.

Absorption of to much right wing propaganda mimics psychoactive drugs, yes. Except it takes a lot longer to wear off, if ever. It's like MMDA for haters.

Either way, they'll get an attitude adjustment in the general election, kinda like Goldwater in 1964. There's nothing wrong with the Repub party that being beaten into a state of reasonableness won't solve.

i love how no one ever comments on how male commentators look but all people talk about with women is how they look. Its pretty sad.

You can thank liberal Hollywood/entertainment media for that, they have turned "how a woman looks" into a multi-billion dollar industry, from the Internet, movies, television, tabloids, to the fashion & cosmetic companies.

Please. It was big business long before radio was invented, let alone television. For example-

I guess shove em into a potato sack and stick em in the back room works some places...

But that isn't the point here.

Its just different expectations each sex has. You never hear someone say a Man is pretty, you never hear someone say does that woman earn enough to support her half of the family?
Its wrong but its also our nature.

Perhaps the problem isn't with the business of Hollywood. Perhaps it has to do with the fact that men are more voyeuristic than women. A business just supplies what is in demand.

We're reading about this - surely Trump has knowledge of this. If the Republicans use a Super pac to kill his nomination, I wouldn't be surprised if Trump said that the Republicans didn't play fair - point out the advertising done by the Republican party to defeat him, and run on the Independent ticket on a platform of getting rid of the Pacs, just to screw over the Republican party. He would likely garner more votes than Perot did.

I think the Republicans are between a rock and a hard place.

I agree, the Republicans are playing a dangerous game. If Trump runs as an independent, which he can and might very well do if the Repubs piss him off enough, they have no possible chance in hell of winning. Trump WILL split the Republican vote.

 

[Darwin333]

The US really needs some more viable Political Parties. I think the only way to do that would be to get rid of the Primary Process. Turn Political Parties into Private organizations completely in control of their own selection processes. The Primary Process gives too much control to the 2 parties, blocking others from ever having a chance.

I might be missing something though. However, that's how it appears to me.

Couldn't agree more!

Please. Trump gets attacked all the time for his absurd looks and terrible haricut. Maher has a running bit how he's decendended from orangutans.

Christie is also always getting blasted for being so fat, and Sander's was very pointedly poked by Larry David, desheveled mess and all.

Don't act like its a one way street or only a L/R issue. Bad fashion style is bad fashion style, and its always talked about everywhere. Its not a racial epithet or some genetic deformity she had no choice in.

She told someone to cut her hair like that and has kept it that way for a while. Its a trainwreck and no apologies for saying so.

 

[Fanatical Meat]

Her hair isn't that bad but it looks a bit harsh she needs something to soften her look.

I'm not a twitter guy but her page is interesting. Apparently Trump followers like to tweet too.

I do like how she proudly states this:

Just another example of why PACs should be killed.

Apologies for quoting myself.
Nobody finds this odd? Trump essentially says he'll sue any organization for slander but she laughs it off because the law is different for PACs than Campaigns.

The legal distinctions are real enough.

They've been playing a dangerous game for a long time, pandering to the fringe, making them the base of the party. It's only the emergence of the Tea Party & Trump's opportunism that made them realize how dangerous it is. Even crazy people catch on when you promise to deliver the impossible. They still want the impossible but now they're mad at you for stringing them along. They discover that the only way their extreme minority position has any power is by taking you hostage, using extortion to try to get what they want.

Nobody said they were the harmless kind of crazy.

The Repub establishment simply cannot allow Trump at the top of the ticket because he'll drag down the rest of 'em. I mean, how do they line up behind a guy who's all over the map? How do they sell that in a swing district or state? How do they step up & say "I'm with him!"?

Suing for slander is a fairly toothless threat for a public figure. It is extremely hard for public figures to win that sort of case.

My point is she is laughing about someone being able to sue a PAC for slander, not him being a public figure. I find that disturbing.

She's laughing about Trump doing it. The proposition is absurd.

There's plenty of material to feed the Repub slime machine, a helluva lot juicier than Hillary's email.

How many wives? Fidelity? Please. What kind of family values does he have, anyway?

What about the fact that he makes his money from sin, gambling on real estate & enticing others with his casinos?

What about all those failed businesses & lawsuits? What about the poor investors?

It's all in the spin & there will be plenty of it. Trump's smart, no doubt, but I don't know that he can stand toe to toe with the most devious slime artists in the business.

 

[Ham n' Eggs]

Trump might have fun making ads attacking the PACs that are attacking him. He has as much money to spend as he wants, more than the PACs. Although bush has a lot of money and it doesn't seem to be helping him any.

It's easier to tear down than to build up. It's what Repubs have been doing exclusively since 2008. It's what Trump does, too. It'll be a pleasure watching them rip into each other.
