She was shocked by the assault she received from Trump’s body guards and is heard on the video saying, “Stop it! What is wrong with you? That is not appropriate!”
RawStory reports the incident happened at a $1.000 a head fundraiser for Trump in Pennsylvania. The woman was not identified.

Republican presidential candidate, Ben Carson is once again siding with for Donald Trump. In recent news, the establishment Republican party got together trying to come up with alternatives just in case the establishment candidates [Jeb, Rubio, Cruz etc] don’t get the nomination. Ben Carson took this as “the beginning of a plan to subvert the will of the voters,” and said if that is the case, he will not be a part of such a party!
“If this was the beginning of a plan to subvert the will of the voters and replace it with the will of the political elite, I assure you Donald Trump will not be the only one leaving the party,” Carson said in a statement.
Carson responded to a Washington Post report that Republican leaders met this week to discuss what to do if no candidate wins a majority of delegates heading into the party convention next July. GOP leaders also reportedly discussed how to cope with Trump’s rise to the top of most GOP polls.
Said Carson:
“I pray that the report in the Post this morning was incorrect. If it is correct, every voter who is standing for change must know they are being betrayed. I won’t stand for it.”
When asked by ABC News about the potential for a third-party run, Carson said, “I have no intentions of running as an independent. But I certainly don’t want to be a part of corruption.”
On the radio Rush Limbaugh has a job to do. His job is intentionally designed to keep his listeners ignorant, and he does that job extremely well.
But Rush Limbaugh knows the truth. He knows that something is happening wuth the weather, with climate change. And Rush Limbaugh is doing everything he can to secure his beachfront home from the effects of Climate change, even if that means working with the Obama administration.
Limbaugh just signed off on a plan to cooperate with the US Army Corp of Engineers to use his property to store sand and then spread it along the beach where he resides. In his easement deal with the Corps obtained through the town of Palm Beach, Limbaugh is allowing the use of his 2.5 acre compound on the extreme north side of the island to “enhance shoreline management” and provide “storm protection in safe guarding coastal properties”.
He won’t even be the Republican nominee in 2016.
Yes, I know, the New York Times just published a poll that has Trump high atop the GOP field and gaining strength as the one candidate who will keep us safe. He’s everywhere on cable and network news and is a constant topic of conversation on social media. Even Hillary Clinton has stopped dismissing him as a joke and is responding to his absurd claims. This is necessary for now because Trump will not go away on his own. He has to be shown the door and that will happen. It will be messy, but it will happen.
Why am I so sure about the Donald? Because he’s essentially an excellent salesman but a political fraud who knows how to sell himself, and he’s attached himself to a message and a persona that insulates him from criticism for saying outrageously xenophobic, racist, sexist, anti-Semitic and just plain wrong things on a daily basis. What he has done marvelously well is to tap into the country’s fears about terrorism and he has accused the president of not only not doing enough, but of purposely allowing us to be vulnerable.
Trump doesn’t need to repeat the lie about Obama not being a citizen because he has better ammunition: the president is the problem, the other, the un-American, them. He’s also been able to reduce Jeb Bush to a quivering mass of jello, make fun of Marco Rubio’s youth, calls Ben Carson a know-nothing, and says that of course Chris Christie knew about the GW Bridge lane closings despite the fact that not one shred of evidence has been credibly produced that he did.
My question, then, is this: Is this what we want in a President? The answer is no.
The simple reason is that not even Donald Trump can continue to run his campaign this way. As soon as Trump stops saying vile things, he’s finished, because the truth is that he really has no platform, no singular idea other than hate, no economic plan, no foreign policy, no domestic policy and a lifetime of conflicting views on issues on which most Republicans will not ever compromise.
Right now he gets a pass at the debates because of the sheer number of GOP candidates still in the race. Come January, the real campaign begins and I’m assuming that Trump is not going to be prepared for it. Voters will want real answers for their economic problems and they’ll want details as to how Trump is going to carry out his plan to throw out 11 million people from this country and what it would take to barricade us so that other people can’t come in.
They’ll want to know what he wants to do with taxes, legal issues, health care and business policy. He’s said some things about these, but the media and the people will demand answers. And he either won’t have them or he’ll give vague answers or he’ll do what he’s doing now about national security–he’ll try to fake it. This isn’t the midterm or the early semester quiz. It’s the final exam and Trump is going to fail.
In addition, as the GOP field narrows, Trump is going to need to say even more because there will be fewer voices to take up precious airtime. This is where he will falter because he will need to become less radical and say fewer provocative things. Trump has built his campaign on those two pillars. Once he stops, his reason for running will be gone. The Republican Party is hoping that this happens in January before he can do real damage. I’m not sure the party will get its wish, but ultimately the balloon will deflate.
I’ve certainly been caught off-guard by Trump’s durability and political stamina. It’s delayed the ascent of a viable candidate and will only hurt the GOP for as long as his campaign lingers.
But rest assured my fellow Americans, Donald Trump will not be elected president in 2016. And for that, we can be thankful.

CNN brought on a group of Trump supporters and asked them a few questions based on stuff Trump has said, from his stance on immigration to his most recent remarks that all Muslims should be banned from entering the United States. It was obvious that these supporters were deep in Trump’s camp, and painfully obvious that they saw nothing wrong with any of Trump’s statements.
But Susan Demelus of New Hampshire, who is a state Republican Representative, needed to express herself about the “liars” in politics. And according to Miss Demelus, President Obama is the biggest liar of them all.
“We’ve got people in positions of power who I KNOW FOR A FACT are liars. Liars!” she said. “I watch the TV — My president comes on the TV and he lies to me! I know he’s lying. He lies all the time. I don’t believe any one of them, not one. I believe Donald.”
She continued;
“I’m telling you, he says what I’m thinking! Never been involved in politics, never had an interest in any of it. Now suddenly, he is resonating. He is resonating with the people and he’s speaking our minds. Our minds!”

A recently released Fox News poll shows Donald Trump’s “Ban all Muslims” anti-constitution comment has helped him among Republicans in his run for president. The poll shows for example, that Republicans in South Carolina not only stuck with Donald Trump even after his anti-Muslims statement, the poll shows Trump actually getting more Republicans in South Caroling jumping on board.
That poll, released by FOX News on Wednesday night, was taken in a 72-hour period of time when Trump made the comments calling for a ““total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what is going on.”
“It looks like his comments help him in South Carolina,” the FOX News report said. “Support for Trump increased eight points after his statement — from 30 percent the first two nights vs. 38 percent the last two nights. The shift is within the margin of sampling error.”
Trump has 35 percent of total support in the poll with neurosurgeon Ben Carson receiving 15 percent of support and Sen. Ted Cruz and Sen. Marco Rubio receiving 14 percent of support each.
Bush, Christie and the other jokers somehow managed to rake in a massive 3 percent a piece.
Republican leader Donald Trump is scoring big among regular Republican voters and other Republicans who sometimes prefer to stay undercover… or under white hooded sheets for that matter.
The Ku Klux Klan is using Donald Trump as a talking point in its outreach efforts. Stormfront, the most prominent American white supremacist website, is upgrading its servers in part to cope with a Trump traffic spike. And former Louisiana Rep. David Duke reports that the businessman has given more Americans cover to speak out loud about white nationalism than at any time since his own political campaigns in the 1990s.
As hate group monitors at the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Anti-Defamation League warn that Trump’s rhetoric is conducive to anti-Muslim violence, white nationalist leaders are capitalizing on his candidacy to invigorate and expand their movement.
“Demoralization has been the biggest enemy and Trump is changing all that,” said Stormfront founder Don Black, who reports additional listeners and call volume to his phone-in radio show, in addition to the site’s traffic bump. Black predicts that the white nationalist forces set in motion by Trump will be a legacy that outlives the businessman’s political career. “He’s certainly creating a movement that will continue independently of him even if he does fold at some point.”
“I am a Muslim and there is nothing Islamic about killing innocent people in Paris, San Bernardino, or anywhere else in the world,” Ali, who some consider the greatest boxer ever, said in the statement. “True Muslims know that the ruthless violence of so called Islamic Jihadists goes against the very tenets of our religion.”
Ali also asked Muslims to “stand up to those who use Islam to advance their own personal agenda.”
“I believe that our political leaders should use their position to bring understanding about the religion of Islam and clarify that these misguided murderers have perverted people’s views on what Islam really is,” he said.
Mohammed Ali was of course responding to Republican leader Donald Trump’s call to ban all Muslims from entering the United States. In other words, Trump is essentially pushing a religious test to come to America. Something that clearly violates the constution, but is apparently supported by much of the Republican Party.
And the Constitution loving Republicans approve.
The Republican wants to be the next president of the United States, but because of his hateful, racist rhetoric, countries are already trying to ban him from entering their borders.
A petition to ban Donald Trump from going to the UK was started a few days ago. Its goal was to reach 100,000 signers in hopes that the measure gets debated by the Parliament. It now has well over 200,000 signatures.
“The UK has banned entry to many individuals for hate speech. The same principles should apply to everyone who wishes to enter the UK,” read the petition, which was created bySuzanne Kelly, a woman from Aberdeen, Scotland, who has previously campaigned against Trump’s political and business activities.
“If the United Kingdom is to continue applying the ‘unacceptable behavior’ criteria to those who wish to enter its borders, it must be fairly applied to the rich as well as poor, and the weak as well as powerful,” the petition stated.
By Wednesday afternoon, the petition had gained more than 200,000 signatures, and the number was climbing rapidly.
According to Police Chief Randy Kennedy, the police chief of Hughes Springs in East Texas, the job of his police department would be a lot easier if people buy more guns and use those guns to protect themselves against Muslims.
The chief posted his message on Facebook following President’s address on terrorism, and he told Mr. Obama that he is a “servant” who should forget his secret plan to take people’s guns, because when he comes ‘a knocking, gun lovers will be ready, lock and loaded!
“I watched President Obama tonight and heard what he had to say about confronting terrorism, and I didn’t find his words encouraging at all,” Kennedy explained. “What I’m asking all of my citizens to do, all my law-abiding citizens, I am asking you to help me and our fellow law enforcement officers by arming yourselves.”
“We need to send a message to the criminal element as well to these terrorists and these jihadi who want to murder in the name of their god, and the criminal element that want to go out, you know, and just totally destroy our way of life.”
According to the chief, “nobody who is a legal gun owner has ever wanted to harm or kill anyone.”
Kennedy predicted that law enforcement officers would one day need to be saved by “a group of my citizens.”
“And I don’t want you running out of bullets, and I don’t want you running out of guns before you’re able to pull our bacon out of the fire,” he insisted.
Kennedy urged the president to “understand what the Second Amendment is for.”
“It is there for the American people to protect themselves against the criminal element, to protect themselves against terrorists and radical ideology,” he opined. “And it’s also there to protect us against that has overreached power.”
“You are not our potentate, sir,” the police chief told Obama. “You are our servant. And you were elected to serve and protect us first. And I suggest, sir, since you are a constitutional expert that you better review your history on the Constitution and understand we are a free people and are subject to no one other than the almighty God and Jesus Christ, the king.”
These people are insane.

Party/Shmarty/Whatever!
Republicans have drawn the line and the line has nothing to do with party. It has everything to do with Donald Trump. In a new poll, Republicans say they are prepared to buck the Republican party and are pledging their allegiance to Donald Trump, promising to vote for the man if he drops the Republican banner and run as an independent.
The nationwide survey, taken Wednesday through Sunday, finds a trio of Republican candidates who show emerging national strength — Trump, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio — as other once-serious contenders struggle for traction.
And in a chilling sign for Republicans, 68% of Trump’s supporters say they would vote for the blustery billionaire businessman if he ran as an independent rather than a Republican; just 18% say they wouldn’t. The rest were undecided.
Among Democrats, former secretary of State Hillary Clinton has widened her lead over Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders to nearly 2-1, 56%-29%.
The poll of 1,000 likely voters was taken before the latest Trump firestorm, this time over his statement Monday calling for a “complete and total shutdown” on all Muslims entering the United States until concerns about terrorism can be addressed. In TV interviews Tuesday morning, he refused to back down in the face of criticism not only by Democrats but also some leading Republicans.
