Signs emerge of the Great Republican Crack-Up of 2016

The Washington Post reported (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost/wp/2016/02/28/republican-senator-we-need-third-option-if-trump-wins-nomination/):

Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.), a freshman in office barely one year, took to social media Sunday night to declare that he would not support Donald Trump if he sews up the Republican presidential nomination and formally called for an independent challenge from the right as a conservative option to the real estate billionaire.

“I sincerely hope we select one of the other GOP candidates, but if Donald Trump ends up as the GOP nominee, conservatives will need to find a third option,” Sasse wrote in a roughly 1,600-word missive posted on Facebook, much of which he also threw into a series of tweets to his followers.


We don’t yet know the extent of Sasse’s commitment, but the Nebraska Republican, who has not formally endorsed anyone else, left himself little wiggle room, insisting he “cannot support” Trump.

The New York Times, meanwhile, reported (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/28/us/politics/donald-trump-republican-party.html) over the weekend on the “frantic” and “desperate” behind-the-scenes Republican efforts to salvage the party’s 2016 presidential plans, which have thus far produced no results.

At least two campaigns have drafted plans to overtake Mr. Trump in a brokered convention, and the Senate majority leader, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, has laid out a plan that would have lawmakers break with Mr. Trump explicitly in a general election.

Despite all the forces arrayed against Mr. Trump, the interviews show, the party has been gripped by a nearly incapacitating leadership vacuum and a paralytic sense of indecision and despair, as he has won smashing victories in South Carolina and Nevada. Donors have dreaded the consequences of clashing with Mr. Trump directly. Elected officials have balked at attacking him out of concern that they might unintentionally fuel his populist revolt. And Republicans have lacked someone from outside the presidential race who could help set the terms of debate from afar.


The details are amazing in their own right, but let’s not overlook the forest for the trees: Republican Party insiders are actively looking for ways to derail their own party’s presidential frontrunner – a dynamic we have not seen in the modern era – and they appear to be failing rather spectacularly.

Depending on tomorrow’s Super Tuesday results, this may very well get worse for the GOP before it gets better.

CNN contributor insists David Duke is a ‘hardcore leftist’ and the KKK is ‘military arm of the Democratic Party’

A CNN contributor who doesn’t seem to understand how politics have evolved since the Civil War repeatedly insisted the Ku Klux Klan was a liberal organization.

Jeffrey Lord, a former associate political director in the Reagan administration who frequently calls on modern Democratic Party to apologize for sins committed by historical Democrats,

“I mean, David Duke is a hardcore leftist. He’s an anti-Semite.”

Lord then argued that the KKK, which was founded by angry former Confederate soldiers during the Reconstruction era and terrorized blacks throughout the first half of the 20th Century, was associated with the Democratic Party.

“The Ku Klux Klan is a function of the left,” Lord said. “It was the military arm of the Democratic Party. Hello? Donald Trump’s daughter and son-in-law are Jewish. David Duke is an anti-Semite, for heaven’s sakes. This is ridiculous.”

“It is a racist hate group from the left, and that counts,” Lord said. “That is important to understand. It is not conservative. It has nothing to do with conservatism. All of these Klan members who have been elected to Congress and U.S. Senate and governorships over the years, supporting Franklin Roosevelt because they like Social Security. Let’s get our history straight.”

In fact, a recent study (http://asr.sagepub.com/content/79/6/1144.full) showed how the KKK played an active and enduring role (http://www.rawstory.com/2014/12/kkk-crucial-to-building-the-souths-enduring-republican-majority-study-finds/) in steering southern white voters away from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party.

a poll found that even decades after the KKK’s decline, Republican voting was strongest in southern counties where the Klan was active in the 1960s.

“The Klan played an active role in encouraging white southerners to prioritize white supremacy over party loyalty,”

All the juicy details of the GOP's 'desperate' bid to stop Trump (http://www.dailykos.com/stories/2016/2/29/1493308/-All-the-juicy-details-of-the-GOP-s-desperate-bid-to-stop-Trump)

Just how desperate is the GOP to stop The Donald? The New York Times lays it out (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/28/us/politics/donald-trump-republican-party.html?_r=0) in tantalizing detail: rival campaigns are preparing for a brokered convention, Mitch McConnell's girding his caucus for war, and yet there's still a gaping vacuum of leadership.

Marco Rubio's campaign, for instance, has been floating this bulletproof strategy:


Speaking to political donors in Manhattan on Wednesday evening, Mr. Rubio’s campaign manager, Terry Sullivan, noted that most delegates are bound to a candidate only on the first ballot. Many of them, moreover, are likely to be party regulars who may not support Mr. Trump over multiple rounds of balloting, he added, according to a person present for Mr. Sullivan’s presentation, which was first reported by CNN.


So Super Tuesday hasn't even happened and they've already gone straight to the brokered convention scenario. Meanwhile, McConnell is turning his troops loose on The Donald—whatever it takes to keep their seats.

Mr. McConnell has begun preparing senators for the prospect of a Trump nomination, assuring them that, if it threatened to harm them in the general election, they could run negative ads about Mr. Trump to create space between him and Republican senators seeking re-election. Mr. McConnell has raised the possibility of treating Mr. Trump’s loss as a given and describing a Republican Senate to voters as a necessary check on a President Hillary Clinton, according to senators at the lunches.



So McConnell's so resigned to a GOP loss in 2016 that he's already positioning the Senate as the primary battleground over the White House.

The GOP Establishment Is Angry At Trump For Stealing Their Hate

What bothers the GOP establishment is Trump repeating on the national stage what they have preached for 8 years in semi-isolated environs

He is, by any measure, the epitome of a neo-conservative hero and the perfect representation of everything Republicans have promised the base they would deliver for at least the past four years;

since Barack Obama won the presidency in 2008, the Republican establishment and their powerful money machine have fostered and exploited hate, white-rage, and paranoia to incite its base and subsequently set the stage for a Trump-like character’s rise to power.

It is worth noting that in 2012 at the RNC convention Senator Lindsey Graham warned the Party elite that “We’re not generating enough angry white guys to stay in business for the long term.” Graham’s remark was likely right “for the long term;” but the party’s crusade over seven-and-a-half years has generated more than enough of the “angry white” base the Donald is riding toward the Republican nomination.

It may be true that the establishment reserved any blatant hate-mongering for non-white, non-Christian, and non-conservatives for its closest insiders and private meetings, but it did use Barack Obama as a surrogate for everything the GOP base was conditioned to hate

the hate-mongering began in earnest during the 2008 general election campaign when Senator John McCain unleashed Sarah Palin on the country to launch the now-notorious “explosion of right-wing loathing and crusade of animosity” towards anything and anyone not white and not conservative.

It was not just Palin; the entire party was, and still are, using mean-spirited attempts to delegitimize President Obama and his supporters as not real Americans because they are Americans who are not rich and not white.

Republicans are angry that Trump is reaping the benefits of all their hard work as they are worried he is tarnishing the Republican brand. A brand that is already so dirty and nasty that it is a major mystery why they are terrified of, and oppose, the man who best represents the Republican brand the party elite and their wealthy donors created.

Donald Trump should enjoy his Super Tuesday win because he’s going to be crushed

he has no idea what he’s in for.

Until last Thursday’s GOP debate, his hapless opponents have been content to trade pot-shots with Trump over

his ideological apostasies –

he used to be pro-choice and once

called for single-payer health care.

Sure, Trump’s budget-busting tax cuts (http://money.cnn.com/2015/12/22/pf/taxes/donald-trump-tax-plan/), belligerent foreign policy rhetoric and hostility towards immigrants and Muslims are GOP mainstays, but

he’s opposed to trade deals,

doesn’t want to cut Social Security and

argues that George W. Bush was president on 9/11/01, so he’s a heretic.

But they only just began to go after the central rationale of his candidacy. The Donald has

no coherent policies to offer, and

no relevant experience to highlight.

His pitch to the electorate is based entirely on his image as a successful businessman who makes great deals, knows how to manage people and gets things done.

And that singular strength is going to become a massive weakness in the blinding glare of a presidential campaign.

Last week, Sam Stein reported (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/donald-trump-research_us_56cf2c6de4b03260bf75b395?pmx11yvi) for the Huffington Post that none of his GOP rivals had even “completed a major anti-Trump opposition research effort.” When Trump gets to the general election, that’s going to change. Voters are going to hear plenty about not only his many bankruptcies (https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/what-trump-didnt-say-about-his-four-big-business-bankruptcies/2015/08/07/bc054e64-3d12-11e5-9c2d-ed991d848c48_story.html), but also his fraudulent scams (http://money.cnn.com/2016/02/25/news/companies/donald-trump-witness-fraud-case/), mob ties (https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/trump-swam-in-mob-infested-waters-in-early-years-as-an-nyc-developer/2015/10/16/3c75b918-60a3-11e5-b38e-06883aacba64_story.html), shady licensing deals (http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2016-02-24/a-look-inside-trump-s-global-deals-exposes-trouble-in-many-spots), tax avoidance schemes (http://www.cbsnews.com/news/donald-trump-i-pay-as-little-as-possible-in-taxes/) and hypocritical embrace of immigrant workers (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/26/us/politics/donald-trump-taps-foreign-work-force-for-his-florida-club.html?_r=0) for their cheap labor. Journalist Wayne Barrett has reported (http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2011/05/26/inside-donald-trumps-empire-why-he-wont-run-for-president.html) that some of his past associates – “I’ll hire the best people, they’ll give me the best advice” — have been caught up in drug smuggling, trafficking underage girls and various stock market swindles.

We’ll hear all about the Japanese gambler who stiffed him for $4 million (http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/02/japanese-gambler-donald-trump-213635) – “they’re stealing our money!’ – and the Mexican sweatshop workers (http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-pol-ca-trump-hats-cali-fame-carson-20151124-story.html) who make his ‘Make America Great’ hats. So far, he’s gotten a pass on his supposed business acumen, but in a general election we’ll hear all about how he’d be richer today if he’d just invested his money in the stock market (http://fortune.com/2015/08/20/donald-trump-index-funds/) and spent the past 30 years lounging on a beach somewhere.

Since he arrived on New York’s social scene in the 1970s, Trump’s immense self-promotion skills haven’t been enough to overcome his reputation as a crass, utterly classless buffoon. We’ll be hearing plenty of clips from his two-dozen appearances on the Howard Stern show, where, according to (http://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewkaczynski/donald-trump-said-a-lot-of-gross-things-about-women-on-howar#.ina1PyK69)Buzzfeed (http://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewkaczynski/donald-trump-said-a-lot-of-gross-things-about-women-on-howar#.ina1PyK69), he “frequently discussed women he had sex with, wanted to have sex with, or wouldn’t have sex with if given the opportunity.”

In a general election, Trump will be exposed for the slick con artist he’s always been. When the Democrats’ opposition researchers get through with The Donald, he’s going to make Mitt Romney look like George Potter.

And Trump isn’t going to take it well. Right now, he’s the picture of a happy narcissist.

According to the Mayo Clinic (http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/narcissistic-personality-disorder/basics/symptoms/con-20025568), “If you have narcissistic personality disorder, you may come across as conceited, boastful or pretentious.

You may belittle or look down on people you perceive as inferior…. You may insist on having ‘the best’ of everything — for instance, the best car, athletic club or medical care.” That’s Trump in a nutshell.

But the Mayo Clinic adds: “when you don’t receive special treatment, you may become impatient or angry.”

At the same time, you have trouble handling anything that may be perceived as criticism. You may have secret feelings of insecurity, shame, vulnerability and humiliation. To feel better, you may react with rage or contempt and try to belittle the other person to make yourself appear superior. Or you may feel depressed and moody because you fall short of perfection.


Trump’s angry-guy persona is playing well in the Republican primary contest, but when he comes under serious attacks for the first time – attacks that call into question his competence and business success — he’s likely to lash out like… like a narcissist whose endless boasts are suddenly being challenged for the first time. It’s not going to be pretty, and in the end a lot of voters are going to be terrified at the prospect of having someone like Trump anywhere near the nuclear launch codes.

Rank and File Republicans Tell Party Elites: We’re Sticking With Donald Trump

From Michigan to Louisiana to California on Friday, rank-and-file Republicans expressed mystification, dismissal and contempt regarding the instructions that their party’s most high-profile leaders were urgently handing down to them: Reject and defeat Donald J. Trump (http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2016/us/elections/donald-trump-on-the-issues.html?inline=nyt-per).

Their angry reactions, in the 24 hours since Mitt Romney (http://topics.nytimes.com/topics/reference/timestopics/people/r/mitt_romney/background/index.html?inline=nyt-per) and John McCain (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/m/john_mccain/index.html?inline=nyt-per) urged millions of voters to cooperate in a grand strategy to undermine Mr. Trump’s candidacy, have captured the seemingly inexorable force of a movement that still puzzles the Republican elite and now threatens to unravel the party they hold dear.

In interviews, even lifelong Republicans who cast a ballot for Mr. Romney four years ago rebelled against his message and plan. “I personally am disgusted by it — I think it’s disgraceful,” said Lola Butler, 71, a retiree from Mandeville, La., who voted for Mr. Romney in 2012. “You’re telling me who to vote for and who not to vote for? Please.”

“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,” Ms. Butler said.

A fellow Louisiana Republican, Mindy Nettles, 33, accused the party of “using Romney as a puppet” to protect itself from Mr. Trump because its leaders could not control him. “He has a mind of his own,” she said. “He can think.”

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.

Here's why Repug base can't do shit about their impotent "revolt"

Kochs will stay out of presidential nomination fight to spend millions buying the rest of government (http://www.dailykos.com/stories/2016/3/3/1495287/-Kochs-will-stay-out-of-presidential-nomination-fight-to-spend-millions-buying-the-rest-of-government)


"We have no plans to get involved in the primary," said James Davis, spokesman for Freedom Partners, the Koch brothers’ political umbrella group. He would not elaborate on what the brothers' strategy would be for the Nov. 8 election to succeed Democratic President Barack Obama.Three sources close to the Kochs said the brothers made the decision because they were concerned that spending millions of dollars attacking Trump would be money wasted, since they had not yet seen any attack on Trump stick.



The Kochs have also been in this game long enough to know that there are levers of power that are more important for their end game than the White House. After all,

what good is having the White House if the Senate goes back to Democrats? And they can look ahead to 2020 and redistricting, so they know shoring up and increasing their state level wins is critical.

Jane Mayer, who really did write the book on the Kochs,explained (http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/author-jane-mayer-on-how-the-koch-brothers-could-influence-the-election-20160217?page=2) the strategy a few weeks ago:

Where the influence of money goes so much further, and what people who are interested in this need to take a look at, is the lower levels:

the state and even local elections.

There's Koch money that's been going into school board races,

questions about funding mass transit in Tennessee, or

funding a zoo in Ohio.

They're fighting the expansion of Medicaid in South Dakota and all over the country.

Their organizations are flooding money into universities and colleges in order to try and recruit young people to their point of view and then train them as cadres to go into their political groups.

It's a comprehensive system to change America.

So presidential politics certainly is the splashiest arena, but it's not actually the place where they have the most influence.

iow, the VRWC has been for 40+ years and will be fighting their Class War, and obviously winning ruthlessly, relentlessly.

So all of you Pollyanas, positive thinkers, naive mofos, tell us again, in practice, how Human-Americans can win, reverse they Class War they been destroyed in?

Republican blames Trump’s rise on Obama’s level-headedness

If something bad happens, anywhere in the world, chances are pretty good that some creative Republicans will come up with a way to blame those developments on President Obama. It’s a skill the GOP has honed over the last seven years, and the party has become quite adept in this area.

Naturally, then, it was sadly predictable that Republicans would even manage to blame Donald Trump’s rise on the rascally Democratic president. Obama, we’re now supposed to believe, is even responsible for the attitudes Republican primary and caucus voters have towards their own party’s candidates.

The argument has been slowly percolating in GOP media circles in recent weeks, touted by the New York Times’ Ross Douthat (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/28/opinion/sunday/from-obama-to-trump.html) and the editorial board (http://www.wsj.com/articles/the-obama-trump-dialectic-1449621957) of the Wall Street Journal, among others. Blaming the radicalization of Republican politics is hard; blaming the president they hold in contempt is easy; so many on the right are naturally gravitating towards the latter.

But leave it to Bobby Jindal – a failed presidential candidate, a prominent Marco Rubio supporter, and one of the worst and least effective (http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow/watch/gop-failures-set-backdrop-for-next-primaries-636740675886) governors in modern American history – to write an op-ed (http://www.wsj.com/articles/president-obama-created-donald-trump-1457048679) taking the argument to its silliest conclusion.

Let’s be honest: There would be no Donald Trump, dominating the political scene today if it were not for President Obama.

I believe that voters tend to act in open-seat presidential elections to correct for the perceived deficiencies of the incumbent…. After seven years of the cool, weak and endlessly nuanced “no drama Obama,”

voters are looking for a strong leader who speaks in short, declarative sentences. :lol


At a certain level, picking on Bobby Jindal almost seems cruel. The man’s failures were so humiliating, his governing agenda bombed so catastrophically (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/03/04/the-debilitating-economic-disaster-louisianas-governor-left-behind/), his electoral defeats were so crushing, that he’s probably better left ignored – except to serve as a model to others as how not to be a competent public official.

But this notion that Obama must be blamed for Trump will probably linger for a while, so Jindal’s debacles notwithstanding, let’s go ahead and note the most glaring flaws in the former governor’s argument.

There’s some truth to the idea that voters, after eight years of one president, tend to look to a very different kind of leader. With this in mind, in the broadest possible sense, it’s best not to dismiss Jindal’s framing out of hand: Obama and Trump are, in fact, opposites.

Where the president is mature, Trump is a buffoon. Where Obama is smart and knowledgeable, Trump is careless and ignorant. Where the president is honest; Trump deceives. Where Obama appeals to the public’s intellect and the better angels of our nature, Trump’s candidacy is built on an ugly foundation of resentment and division.

But Jindal’s thesis nevertheless falls short on two points. The first is that the right-wing Republican is convinced that the president “created the very rancor he now rails against.” For Jindal, it wasn’t Republican extremism, or GOP officials’ refusal to cooperate or compromise with the president on any issue that created a toxic political climate, it was the president’s partisan and ideological agenda.

By any objective measure, those who’ve been conscious for the last seven years probably recognize Jindal’s observation as delusional.

The second, and perhaps more important, flaw in the Louisianan’s argument is what it expects of Democratic voters.

As Jon Chait joked (http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2016/03/jindal-obama-caused-trump-by-being-too-mature.html),

“This is your fault, Democrats. If you had elected a red-faced, racist bullying lout as president, then Republicans would be reacting today by rallying around somebody who’s intellectual, humble, and non-abusive, and we’d all be in fine shape. But nooooooo. You had to nominate a wonkish, emotionally controlled law professor, forcing Republicans to turn to an unhinged racist reality-television star in response.”Sure, GOP voters could be more responsible, but as Jindal sees it, they have no real choice – historical models must be honored, even unconsciously, and if Democrats chose a mature and capable leader, Republicans are instinctively obligated to rally behind a childish fool.

With wisdom like this, is it any wonder Jindal’s approval rating in his Deep South red state reached a cringe-worthy 27% (http://www.bestofneworleans.com/gambit/next-to-nothing/Content?oid=2598599)?

American Psycho for prez: Donald Trump’s sons epitomize the ’80s-style yuppie villainy of his campaign

http://media.salon.com/2016/03/eric_donald_jr_trump2-620x412.jpg

Trump’s sons are such pitch-perfect preening preps that they read as unsubtle satire rather than real people. Both of them are dead ringers for Christian Bale’s serial killer character in “American Psycho.” And while The Donald has a certain comic timing that makes his prep school bully routine funny, both of his sons are not so blessed, laying bare the grotesque soul rot that happens when mediocre white men have enough wealth and privilege that they’re fooled into thinking they are actually something special.

In the past week, both Trump sons have made wretched fools of themselves in the media with the confidence that only comes from being rich so long that you have no one in your world who dares say no to you.

Donald Trump Jr. granted a 20-minute interview to a white supremacist (http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2016-03-02/donald-trump-jr-disavows-radio-host-over-racist-views) named James Edwards, who believes that slavery is the “greatest thing to have ever happened” to black people and that (http://gawker.com/donald-trump-jr-says-he-didnt-know-white-supremacist-r-1762515723) “interracial sex is white genocide.”. Trump Jr. is playing this off like he was sandbagged by some unknown who misrepresented himself, but as Gawker reports, Edwards was given press credentials (http://gawker.com/media-hating-trump-campaign-approves-credentials-for-sl-1762371934) by the Trump campaign, the same campaign that has repeatedly kicked reporters out of campaign events for espousing views that are seen as too liberal or too anti-racist.

“This is clearly the mainstream media trying to turn a story into something, much like they did with my father, who I witnessed denouncing David Duke and any KKK endorsement on multiple occasions,” Trump Jr. said, dismissing the controversy (http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2016-03-02/donald-trump-jr-disavows-radio-host-over-racist-views).

Obviously, that’s a load, because his father’s little know-nothing routine (http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2016/02/28/3754583/trump-david-duke/) when asked about it is fooling no one. This little tap-dance is the same thing: Cozying up to white supremacists and then pleading ignorance when called out for it. Either the Trumps are the unluckiest people in the world, or ignorance is simply a feint they use to get away with this.

But you can see why Trump followers would love this. Being able to contemptuously dismiss press questions about the KKK in the same tone one might arrogantly deny that you were groping the help or that the white powder in your Porsche is cocaine — i.e. like you know you have the money to get away with even the most obvious lies — must feel thrilling to the workaday Trump supporter. You can’t get away with that crap at your day job, but you can live vicariously through these well-gelled men who live in ivory towers but share your same disdain for certain kinds of people.

Eric Trump has been hustling the same line. On CBS News, he contemptuously declared that confronting Trump (http://www.cbsnews.com/news/eric-trump-my-father-has-done-an-amazing-service/) about his little KKK game is “actually the worst part of politics” and that his father has seen “everything he’s ever touched” turn “to gold.”


On Fox News, same story (http://insider.foxnews.com/2016/02/29/eric-trump-reacts-kkk-controversy-record): “My father’s a great man” and “This is really politics at its ugliest.”

It’s gross, but, from a certain (and bigoted) point of view, it’s also thrilling. These guys are living the fantasy, so rich and cased in privilege that they can do and say whatever they want, knowing that consequences bounce off them like Teflon. It’s like watching a movie where the rich guy pays the hotel to make a dead prostitute disappear, except this time, the fantasy of being untouchable is real. Trump supporters can’t live it, but they can vote it, and in that moment, share the dream.

It’s not just on the racism front, either. After Buzzfeed combed through hours of audio clips of Donald Trump (http://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewkaczynski/donald-trump-said-a-lot-of-gross-things-about-women-on-howar#.hdZP63RJby) on the “Howard Stern Show” broing down with Stern by saying dehumanizing things about women, Donald Trump Jr. dismissed the entire thing with a flick (http://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewkaczynski/trump-jr-on-dad-degrading-women-on-stern-hes-allowed-to-have#.igxlROJwAE) of his Brooks Brothers’s clad wrist on Fox News.

“He’s allowed to have a personality. He will,” he haughtily explained.

Allowed. The word explains so much about the appeal of Trump and his crusade against “political correctness.” Trump — and his sons — are living the dream of white guy assholes everywhere, of being allowed to be as repugnant, dismissive, misogynist, racist, and egotistical as you want, with the confidence that no one will say anything about it because you’re rich.

Trump and his sons are repulsive people, almost too good at playing the villainous preps that they, in fact, just are. But that act is selling better with the Republican base than Ted Cruz’s “my clothes don’t fit because I am down home kind of guy” act.

People vote their aspirations, and it turns out, that for a lot of Republican voters, being a rich villain is exactly the fantasy they want to wallow in.

That was a frustrating loss. My visceral reaction is to say that we underestimated the state's proximity to Canada, which is Ted Cruz's motherland. Still, I think Maine is a state that marches to the beat of its own drum. Trump will do better in those big states.

The world watches the U.S. presidential race with ‘disbelief’

As the prospect of Donald Trump winning the Republican Party’s presidential nomination grew more realistic, the questions became more common: what would it say to the rest of the world if Americans elected Trump to the White House? Just how much damage would such an election do the United States’ credibility?

And while those questions obviously matter, it’s also worth pausing to appreciate the fact that Trump’s current standing is already doing damage in the eyes of the world. Reuters published an interesting report (http://news.yahoo.com/foreign-diplomats-voicing-alarm-u-officials-trump-110913258.html) this morning.


Foreign diplomats are expressing alarm to U.S. government officials about what they say are inflammatory and insulting public statements by Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump, according to senior U.S. officials.

Officials from Europe, the Middle East, Latin America and Asia have complained in recent private conversations, mostly about the xenophobic nature of Trump’s statements, said three U.S. officials, who all declined to be identified.



http://www.msnbc.com/sites/msnbc/files/styles/ratio--3-2--770x513/public/mp-trump781_0.jpg?itok=yvd5SZkm (http://www.msnbc.com/api/1.0/getinteractive/744341/slideshow-744341/nojs)

The piece quoted a senior NATO official, speaking on condition of anonymity, saying, “European diplomats are constantly asking about Trump’s rise with disbelief and, now, growing panic.”

It’s inevitable that American presidential elections are going to generate some international attention. The U.S. role as a global superpower means that decisions made here have an effect practically everywhere, so when American voters go about choosing the “Leader of the Free World,” a global audience tends to keep an eye on the process.

And right about now, it seems much of the planet is worried, not only about a leading U.S. candidate, but also what in the world so many Americans are thinking.


U.S. officials said it was highly unusual for foreign diplomats to express concern, even privately, about candidates in the midst of a presidential campaign. U.S. allies in particular usually don’t want to be seen as meddling in domestic politics, mindful that they will have to work with whoever wins.

Senior leaders in several countries – including Britain, Mexico, France, and Canada – have already made public comments criticizing Trump’s positions. German Economy Minister Sigmar Gabriel branded him a threat to peace and prosperity in an interview published on Sunday.


I continue to think part of the problem is the Republican Party’s unique status among advanced democracies.

As we’ve discussed (http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/obama-sees-republican-party-international-outlier) before, the GOP in the United States is the only major party in the advanced world that

denies climate change,

opposes universal health care, and

believes citizens should have largely unfettered access to firearms.

As a result, the party is bound to make decisions that international observers find baffling – there’s

just nothing else like our Republican Party in any democracy in the Western world.

Supposedly, Trump has studied Hitler's speeches and it shows. It's impossible not to notice how nearly every statement he makes on the campaign begins with a dark premise (e.g., "something bad is happening", "there's a real problem", etc.). The below video is a great breakdown of one such example.

Supposedly, Trump has studied Hitler's speeches and it shows. It's impossible not to notice how nearly every statement he makes on the campaign begins with a dark premise (e.g., "something bad is happening", "there's a real problem", etc.). The below video is a great breakdown of one such example.

Yes I most certainly do.

I heard him speak on evolution. He is batshit crazy.
People that are not in science don't get that the almighty "Doctor" can forget, or wish to forget, the most basic science. I know because I have met them. There are many people who have so narrowed their field of study that the big picture passes them by. And many older doctors, like Carson, are not the least bit interested in keeping up.

Then you have the real thinkers like Stephen Jay Gould, Issac Assimov, Richard Feinman... Don't ever confuse these types with a medical doctor. Trump is quite possibly much more intelligent, whatever intelligent means, than Carson.

To be a neural surgeon you had to go through the usual route of residency, general surgery and then neural surgery. Then to be one of the only doctors capable of separating twins conjoined at the head when neural surgery wasn't a fraction as advanced as it was today, you had to be something special. Carson IS a genius, he's not a good politician and extremely religious though.

MoveOn: “Trump’s Hate-Filled Rhetoric On Notice After Tonight’s Event”
By Jayne Fagan. Friday, March 11 2016
Ilya Sheyman, executive director of MoveOn.org Political Action, responded to news of the postponement of Donald Trump’s rally in Chicago on Friday:

“Mr. Trump and the Republican leaders who support him and his hate-filled rhetoric should be on notice after tonight’s events. These protests are a direct result of the violence that has occurred at Trump rallies and that has been encouraged by Trump himself from the stage. Our country is better than the shameful, dangerous, and bigoted rhetoric that has been the hallmark of the Trump campaign. To all of those who took to the streets of Chicago, we say thank you for standing up and saying enough is enough. To Donald Trump, and the GOP, we say, welcome to the general election. Trump and those who peddle hate and incite violence have no place in our politics and most certainly do not belong in the White House.”

ACORN's successor group in Missouri has been paying protesters $5,000 a month to generate civil unrest in Ferguson, the troubled St. Louis suburb where black youth Michael Brown was killed by a white police officer last August.

The Chicago Police Department said it was informed shortly before 6:30 p.m. that the Trump campaign had canceled the event, an announcement that took the department by surprise, according to the police chief.

The department "had no role, we were not consulted or provided an opinion" about whether or not to cancel the event, John J. Escalante, the interim police superintendent, said at a news briefing Friday night.

If you don't want Trump to win, vote for Cruz. Not complicated - you protest you will just give him more support because people will just see it as liberals trying to stifle the first amendment.

Damn man that's actually really sad to watch. Alot of hate in the eyes of his supporters.

Trump has made all the m>s like people come out from behind the keyboards. Uppity white college students, rednecks, biker types, old racists. He's brought them all together through the one thing they all have in common--bigotry.

So, to summarise this Chicago episode:

- Trump schedules a rally at a mainstream college campus, which isn't the natural habitat of the rabble that show up at his events
- Protestors show up in big numbers and get inside the hall
- Trump chickens out, and then lies about the police advising him to cancel
- Trump whines about his free speech rights, oblivious to the irony that the protestors were exercising the same right to free speech
- Net result: Trump gets more free media and dominates the news cycle days before the next round of primaries
- Cruz and Rubio can't get any attention unless they too talk about Trump. The GOP establishment continues to contemplate the viability of suicide

Am I right or am I right?

Where did you hear this? From reading a few tweets? :lol

Is there a new poll?

It doesn't matter. Cruz is close enough to him that if Rubio and Kasich stay on they will keep Trump from locking up enough delegates to win it. Once they get to the convention it's over.

Trump will then run as a third party taking himself and the whole GOP down with him. Hillary gets to be president without compromising. :lol

A lot of hate towards liberals there and they are angry ted won't call out the liberals while Trump called them thugs.

Rubio was in single digits on a few states last time, if there is a backlash that sends people Trump's way it can end the 4 way vote splitting. We will have to see if ohio and Florida vote accordingly if this holds up, tbh.

I don't care who you've called out. When one side is being overtly racist you don't blame both sides or call the targets of his racism the instigators. He is running on a platform to send jackboots into every Hispanic household to round up their family members. He's done everything possible to insult blacks besides call them ######s.
