Trump's Continued Descent Into Paranoia. (I can't wait for the GOP convention!)

Last edited Thu Apr 7, 2016, 10:18 AM - Edit history (1)

The Trump campaign issued this gracious concession over his loss in Wisconsin yesterday...

Donald J. Trump withstood the onslaught of the establishment yet again. Lyin’ Ted Cruz had the Governor of Wisconsin, many conservative talk radio show hosts, and the entire party apparatus behind him. Not only was he propelled by the anti-Trump Super PAC’s spending countless millions of dollars on false advertising against Mr. Trump, but he was illegally coordinating with his own Super PAC’s (which is illegal) who totally control him. Ted Cruz is worse than a puppet—he is a Trojan horse, being used by the party bosses attempting to steal the nomination from Mr. Trump. We had total confidence that Mr. Trump will go on to win in New York, where he holds a substantial lead in all the polls, and beyond. Mr. Trump is the only candidate who can secure the delegates needed to win the Republican nomination and ultimately defeat Hillary Clinton, or whomever is the Democratic nominee, in order to Make America Great Again.

True Trump has every reason to be paranoid given that the GOP is looking for every reason to sabotage his campaign. But he had two choices... to make a gracious concession as Hillary did... or to act like the narcissistic buffoon we know him to be. He didn't disappoint. He's deliberately whipping up his base to make them more hostile to the GOP... and I'm loving it. July can't come fast enough. I can't wait for the GOP convention... and may it be open carry!

It is his pattern: say something outrageous so that all the media picks it up. Or else some event at a rally that does the same. Doesn't want his opponents to get any share of the media.

For as long as he has the craziest wing of the pub party behind him, he answers to them. No matter what, no one should usurp a democratic process even within the pub primary.

The pubs created their frankenstein, let him sink them. They deserve trump. He doesn't finish saying ANYTHING they haven't started muttering first. He's just open about his hatred, bigotry, misogyny and a wide array of ignorance induced "issues".

Look at the hatred they have sown towards our Latin American family. Trump didn't start this. They did. As long as the pubs can divide our continent into "stupid" and "illegal" we will miss their raiding our pockets. Did they pass comprehensive immigration reform? No!!! They are in sync with trumps decisiveness. Know what? Open north & South American borders with a couple of caveats: living wage for all people and track these fucking businesses and corporations payroll. Make it illegal to pay slave wages and a level playing field for all is fair. But no,,, people would stop eating lettuce if it's .50 more expensive? No you fucking idiots they won't stop buying lettuce. It's all a lie. It's all a trickle down lie. Put the money in all our pockets and watch the economy purrrrrr.

Sorry I went ot. But it's all tied in together. Trump is the pub party. He's just not in the Royal circle of thieves yet. He's not saying anything they haven't. He's not even as bad as that fucker cruz. Run trump run!!!!

"For as long as he has the craziest wing of the pub party behind him, he answers to them."
I really can't tell which group is more crazy or toxic.... Cruz or Trump supporters. As one of my business clients told me... he thinks Trump is an idiot, but he speaks to his frustrations. Someone once observed, not sure if this was on MSNBC... or on NPR, that Trump may be attracting people who are just so fed up with Washington they just don't care anymore and want to drop a bomb on it. On the other hand Cruz is a true extreme far right, religious crazie.

He backs his own campaign with a "HUGE" amount of money that he can write on his taxes, therefore he is a walking "Super Pac"! That should be illegal somehow?
