Trump Fans Erupt Over 1 Bold Endorsement

/0 Comments/in , /by

It still is uncertain if there are enough Donald Trump supporters to garner him the GOP nomination for president – we’ll probably have a pretty clear idea in just a few weeks. But if the intensity of their support, and animus for those who disagree with their choice, would count, Melania Trump already would be measuring for curtains in the private quarters of the White House.

WND CEO Joseph Farah on Tuesday released in his daily commentary his personal recommendation for the presidential election this fall: U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz . . .

While affirming he would support Trump, the front-runner right now, if he turns out to be the nominee, he said Cruz “demonstrates he has the clearest, most Reaganesque vision of where the country needs to go in its much-needed recovery from eight years of Barack Obama. Cruz is principled, sophisticated and a solid conservative whose understanding of and commitment to the Constitution is unshakeable.”

The emails to WND erupted.

They blasted, they criticized, they ridiculed and they charged. They talked about Cruz’s politics, how evil is Hillary Clinton, Trump’s business skills, Cruz’s wife, the U.S. Senate, Marco Rubio, and many more topics. (Read more from “Trump Fans Erupt Over 1 Bold Endorsement” HERE)

Trump Just Scored a Shock Endorsement That May Silence Those Calling Him Racist

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Jack Davis. The brother of legendary civil rights activist Medgar Evers has two messages for America. One is that Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump is “the best candidate.” The other is that those obsessed with the past and the Ku Klux Klan have to “stop living in the past.”

“I believe in him first of all because he’s a businessman. I think jobs are badly needed in Mississippi,” said Charles Evers, 93, whose brother was gunned down in 1963. Evers, a former leader in the NAACP, became a Republican and supported Ronald Reagan in 1980.

In an interview on National Public Radio, Evers said Trump would be a unifier.

“I think he’s the best candidate,” Evers said on NPR. “Number one, he’s independent. Number two, he speaks on what he thinks and not what some other politician may tell them. I like him as a person. He’s a self-made man, and he doesn’t have to take donations from Charles Evers, other people. Once he get elected, he won’t owe me a thing.” (Read more from “Trump Just Scored a Shock Endorsement That May Silence Those Calling Him Racist” HERE)

Hillary Clinton Pledges to Never Let Donald Trump Become President

By Liz Kreutz. Hillary Clinton took direct aim at Donald Trump during a rally in Detroit tonight, vowing to never let the Republican front-runner become president as she continued to shift her focus away from Bernie Sanders and toward the GOP field.

“Because of the kind of campaign that the Republicans have been running, led by their front-runner, we have a lot of people who have been attacked, right?” Clinton asked the crowd of roughly 850 people at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History in Detroit.

The reference to Trump prompted loud “boos” from her supporters, which seemed to fire up Clinton. “I mean, you got to say this about him, he is an equal opportunity attacker,” she said about her possible future opponent in the general election. “He’s attacked Mexicans, he’s attacked people with disabilities, he’s attacked women, he has attacked Muslims. He’s just gone after everybody.”

She added: “We will not let a person like that ever become president of the United States.” (Read more from “Hillary Clinton Pledges to Never Let Donald Trump Become President” HERE)

Republicans Just Revealed Something About Trump That Will Shake the Establishment to Its Core

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Jack Davis. Republican voters have put the party’s elite establishment on notice that any attempt to tamper with the will of the people will face a buzzsaw of anger.

Across the ever-expanding band of America the New York Times labeled “Trump Country” and beyond, voters reacted with anger to 2012 GOP candidate Mitt Romney’s Thursday speech to derail Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s candidacy. Romney spoke amid multiple reports of behind-the-scenes maneuvers to deny Trump the nomination at this summer’s Republican National Convention.

“I personally am disgusted by it — I think it’s disgraceful,” said Lola Butler, 71, of Mandeville, La., who voted for Romney in 2012. “You’re telling me who to vote for and who not to vote for? Please.”

Butler made it crystal clear how she felt.

“There’s nothing short of Trump shooting my daughter in the street and my grandchildren — there is nothing and nobody that’s going to dissuade me from voting for Trump,” she said . . .

“The furious campaign now underway to stop Mr. Trump and the equally forceful rebellion against it captured the essence of the party’s breakdown over the past several weeks: Its most prominent guardians, misunderstanding their own voters, antagonize them as they try to reason with them, driving them even more energetically to Mr. Trump’s side,” reads the Times article published Saturday and written by Michael Barbaro, Ashley Parker and Jonathan Marton.

Mitt Romney Would Vote for Write-In Candidate Over Donald Trump

By Jordan Fraiser. Former Gov. and Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney said Donald Trump is “anything but presidential” and pledged to cast a write-in vote rather than support the Republican front-runner if he were to become this year’s GOP nominee.

During an interview on “Meet the Press”, Romney said. “I’m going to be voting, but I’ll vote for someone on the ballot that I think is a real conservative and who will make us proud and I may write in a name if I can’t find such a person.”

Romney stopped short of saying he regrets receiving Trump’s endorsement four years ago, but continued to condemn the Republican front-runner’s bombast and vulgarity. (Read more from “Mitt Romney Would Vote for Write-In Candidate Over Donald Trump” HERE)

Top Conservative Just Announced Shocking Plan To Take Down Trump… He’s Not Going To Like It

/0 Comments/in , /by

Bill Kristol, founder and editor-in-chief of “The Weekly Standard,” has joined a growing group of politicians and pundits who are trying to persuade Republican voters and delegates not to let Donald Trump win the party’s nomination for president.

After the Super Tuesday results, Kristol tweeted, “Cruz and Rubio have won more delegates than Trump so far. So they just have to combine. Simple. Cruz-Rubio 2016. QED.”

In a recent interview with MSNBC, Kristol disavowed Trump and continued his anti-Trump dialogue. He said he thinks Trump would be “a terrible nominee and a terrible president.” He even went so far as to say that he would rather have Hillary Clinton as president than Trump.

Kristol reiterated his beliefs that Sen. Cruz and Sen. Rubio should join together to defeat Trump.

“The truth is, if Trump doesn’t win Florida and Ohio, it remains very much of an open race,” Kristol said, arguing that a brokered convention would allow Cruz and Rubio to work together to force Trump to lose the nomination.

Some of Kristol’s Twitter followers didn’t take kindly to his suggestion for Cruz and Rubio. One follower attacked him saying, “Get lost creep, you’ve been busying the establishment since Bush. You’re just bad for the American people. You outta touch snob.” (Read more from “Top Conservative Just Announced Shocking Plan to Take Down Trump… He’s Not Going to Like It” HERE)

‘Whoa’: Glenn Beck Pulls out Unexpected Prop During Interview, Stuns Anchor With Trump Comparison [+video]

/0 Comments/in , /by

Glenn Beck on Sunday compared Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump to the Adolf Hiter of 1929, the charismatic politician who rose to power before the Holocaust on “anger” and “nationalism.”

Appearing on ABC’s “This Week” Sunday to discuss the #NeverTrump movement, Beck said the “GOP has one last chance to listen to the people.”

Beck told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos that conservatives are “very very angry because the GOP did not listen the first time around” to “the Ron Paul people” and the “Tea Party people,” who he said were “way ahead of the curve.”

“The people are speaking clearly, and there are two ways to go: anger and nationalism, which has been done before in history,” Beck said, holding up a ballot for Hitler’s election, written in German.

“Whoa — Donald Trump is Adolf Hitler?” Stephanopoulos interjected. (Read more from “‘Whoa’: Glenn Beck Pulls out Unexpected Prop During Interview, Stuns Anchor With Trump Comparison” HERE)

Donald Trump: The Post-Truth Candidate

/0 Comments/in , /by

On Thursday night, live in front of nearly 17 million Americans watching on national television, Donald Trump abandoned a central plank of the hawkish immigration platform that has helped propel him ever closer to the Republican presidential nomination.

The H-1B visa program makes it easier for employers to import highly skilled foreign labor, and has been widely abused to undercut American workers. Trump has declared himself against such abuses, stating in the immigration platform available on his website that, if president, he would require employers using H-1B visas to hire American workers first. Just last Sunday, Trump highlighted two former Disney IT workers replaced by foreign workers.

But by Thursday night, the front-runner had changed his tune. When moderator Megyn Kelly cited his previous waffling on the subject, Trump announced that he was “softening” his website’s hard line. “We need highly skilled people in this country,” he said. “And if we can’t do it, we’ll get them in.”

Yet one flip-flop was not enough. Just after midnight, Trump’s campaign announced that he was reversing his reversal in a statement that promised to “end forever the use of the H-1B as a cheap labor program, and institute an absolute requirement to hire American workers first for every visa and immigration program. No exceptions.”

Well, then. Will the real Donald Trump please stand up? (Read more from “Donald Trump: The Post-Truth Candidate” HERE)

Listen: Leaked Audio Reveals Sinister Plan to Take Nomination From Trump

/0 Comments/in , /by

New audio has emerged revealing Sen. Marco Rubio’s campaign manager pushing a “brokered convention” in order to take away any chance Donald Trump will be named the GOP nominee for president.

With the Trump train appearing to roll full-speed ahead, many Republicans — some in the establishment, others outside of it — are looking for a way to derail him. The specter of the “brokered convention” is on the lips of anti-Trumpers everywhere — especially those on Team Rubio.

Rubio has been running far back in third place for much of this primary season, but with their eyes still fixed on the nomination prize, some Rubio insiders are looking for a way to win — even if they’ve lost right up to the GOP convention in Cleveland in July.

Appearing before a room of big-dollar donors in New York City, Rubio campaign manager Terry Sullivan is heard regaling them on how Rubio can ultimately be the nominee through a brokered convention instead of at primary ballot boxes.

In the audio, released by Breitbart News, Sullivan is heard giving a full PowerPoint presentation on how to run the table at a brokered convention.

“That is – I know if you watch the cable shows, they’re pretty breathless right about now that this is it, nothing is stopping Donald Trump,” Sullivan is heard telling the donors. “He can’t be stopped. He has got more momentum, this is it. It is over.” (Read more from “Listen: Leaked Audio Reveals Sinister Plan to Take Nomination From Trump” HERE)

Donald Trump will no longer speak at the annual conservative confab CPAC this weekend, he announced Friday.

Trump was scheduled to speak at the annual gathering of the who’s-who of the conservative world Saturday, but said he would be campaigning, instead.

In a statement, the Trump campaign said the GOP front-runner will instead attend rallies in Kansas and Florida.

“Because of this, he will not be able to speak at CPAC as he has done for many consecutive years,” the campaign said. “Mr. Trump would like to thank Matt Schlapp and all of the executives at CPAC and looks forward to returning to next year, hopefully as president of the United States.” (Read more from “Donald Trump Backs out of CPAC” HERE)
