The Republicans love him! He is currently leading in all the Republican presidential polls and it doesn’t matter what nonsense he says, it doesn’t matter who he disrespect, the next poll will come out and Donald Trump will increase his lead.
Since the Fox News Republican debate where Megyn Kelly made the unthinkable mistake of acting as a debate moderator and asking questions, Donald Trump has been on a personal rampage, beating up on Megyn Kelly like she stole his manhood or something, even causing her to take an unplanned vacation from Fox News.
Well Megyn came back and on her first show, Trump apparently made it his duty to watch and he offered his well needed and highly favored comments via Twitter.
Then moments later, the Republican big man decided to beat up on the woman a little more with this tweet! And I’m sure when the next polling comes out, Republicans would love Trump even more!
The law in Kentucky was as clear as day! No one was allowed to run for two political offices at the same time. And everyone understood that law and did the grown-up thing of deciding what office they wanted to run for. But here comes Rand Paul with his greedy plan to run for the Republican nomination for president AND – at the same time – run for re-election to the Senate.
Yes, the rule is clear. But over the weekend, the Republican controlled government in Kentucky broke the law to allow one of their own to run for two offices at once. How? With an overwhelming 111 to 36 vote to change the presidential nomination election in Kentucky to a regular caucus vote and to hold that vote earlier than usual – on March 5 next year.
“I applaud the Republican Party of Kentucky on their decision to hold a caucus in the upcoming Republican presidential cycle,” Paul said in a statement. “The people of Kentucky deserve a voice as the GOP chooses their next nominee, and holding a caucus will ensure that Kentucky is relevant and participates early in the process.”
“I am also grateful for the Republican Party’s trust in me, allowing me to run for re-election to the U.S. Senate and seek the nomination for the Presidency of the United States,” Paul said.
Can you imagine if a Kentucky Democrat had even thought of breaking the law to further his or her own selfish political ambitions? All Republican hell would break loose!
Chris Christie is not even polling in the polls. I don’t think there is a number below zero, but that would be where Christie is right now in the polls. So what’s a paranoid Christie to do when seeing his hopes for the White House is fading to the point of no return? Well he’ll do what any other Republican in his position is expected to do, he’ll scare the vote out of you America!
Enter Christie’s new ad, and it’s all about ISIS and beheading and stuff.
With so much of the interesting political maneuvering happening on the right, we shouldn’t lose sight of the fact that there will be Democratic debates in the fall, and they could be just as interesting as the Republican candidate-a-thons.
While Hillary Clinton still leads in every match-up with one or the other GOP candidate, she’s being pressed by Bernie Sanders in New Hampshire. Bernie’s doing his best to electrify the base with his talk about tighter government control of banks and higher wages and corporate child care centers and things that the US should already have but doesn’t because the right believes that Americans feel better by earning these things individually and that if you can’t afford them then it’s your fault. Sucker. And now Joe Biden is thinking about a run. He would most likely be a very good president if he could get beyond the verbal improvisations that have haunted him in campaigns past. Yes, there are other candidates running–Martin O’Malley, Jim Webb and Lincoln Chafee–but they are having a difficult time breaking through a national media that can only handle a few at a time.
In a twist, this election could see the Democrats painted as the older party, with Hillary, Bernie and Joe all much older than their Republican counterparts. In addition, there’s a bit of a rift going through the left as the Warren-Sanders far left-wing battles with the establishment, more centrist views of the Hillary, and perhaps Biden, wing. There’s been so much attention over the past few years about the yawning divide on the right, that a leftish split is certainly news and could be a potential problem unless the party unites in time for the convention, and that’s pretty much what I would expect to happen.
Hillary’s e-mails are making people nervous and the right will shout Benghazi whenever they get the chance, but on the main issues she seems to have most of the country on her side. Her recent confrontation with Black Lives Matter activists shows her empathetic and realistic, and her contrasting views with Republicans on marriage equality, gender equality, wages, education, climate change and foreign policy experience show her more forward-looking than any of the Republicans who only seem to be able to run negative campaigns.
Democrats need to be careful about being overconfident based on the Obama electoral map, with Ohio, Florida, Nevada and Colorado possibly presenting some serious challenges. Overall, though, demographics do provide the party with an advantage the Republicans will find difficult to overcome.
He considers himself a Libertarian, but Brady Olson, the 15-year-old from Willingford Iowa responsible for the surging Deez Nuts for President campaign, is not endorsing the self-proclaimed Libertarian in the race. Instead of giving Rand Paul the nod, Deez Nuts is throwing his weight behind one Democrat and one Republican – Bernie Sanders and John Kasich.
In regards to Bernie Sanders, Deez Nuts told These Times that he endorsed the Democratic Senator because “he almost completely agrees on me with social issues and even some on fiscal issues.” Nuts also tweeted his endorsement.
Someone reported the man was waving sticks around, so San Francisco cops descended on the man with one leg and held him down for 30 minutes according to an eye witness.
The “sticks” turned out to be the man’s crutches.
At least 14 officers helped in the takedown earlier this month, said Chaedria LaBouvier, a journalist who filmed the incident. The officers held down the man, who appeared to be homeless, for at least 30 minutes, LaBouvier wrote in a Monday post on Medium. He lay on the ground half-naked, his pants slipping off as he struggled with cops, and repeatedly asked, “What are you doing this for?” Witnesses told her the officers were responding to call about someone waving sticks downtown.
Among fresh suspicions that he is planning a run for the presidency in 2016, Vice President Joe Biden reportedly held a private meeting with progressive heartthrob, Elizabeth Warren.
Vice President Joe Biden made a surprise visit to Washington, D.C.’s Naval Observatory on Saturday for a confidential talk with Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), CNN reported.
Biden’s return to the District comes amid buzz he is seriously weighing a 2016 Oval Office bid.
CNN said that two sources confirmed the pair’s face-to-face, the biggest indicator yet that Biden is seriously tempted by an Oval Office bid next year.
“The vice president traveled last minute to Washington, D.C. for a private meeting and will be returning to Delaware,” an aide told CNN. Biden spokeswoman Kendra Barkoff declined further comment on the alleged rendezvous.
CNN initially reported Saturday that Biden arrived in Washington around 11 a.m. and had planned on returning home to Wilmington, Del., later in the weekend.
Donald Trump plus white people yelling “white power” goes hand in hand. You kinda expect people to burst out in unison yelling “white power” at all of his functions. Maybe that will be the new thing for the Republican as he campaigns for the presidency.
It was yelled out multiple times by people in the crowd, repeatedly, you can check for yourself by re-watching the rally, or by glancing through comment threads from websites where people were watching the rally and searching for the term “white power”…
One of these new fans is Andres Anglin, who blogs on neo-Nazi website The Daily Stormer. Praising the man who he affectionately refers to as “The Don,” Anglin wrote, “I do not believe he would solve all or even most of the problems we are facing, but he is absolutely the only candidate who is even talking about anything at all that matters.” Anglin also spoke with admiration of Trump, because the Republican candidate was “willing to call them out as criminal rapists, murderers and drug dealers.”
Can you say “Family Values?” Another Republican caught with an Ashley Madison account, but this time, he has a very creative reason.
According to the Executive Director for the Louisiana Republican Party, Jason Dore, his membership with the website whose main function was providing members with the opportunity to cheat on their spouse, was not for cheating purposes, but for “opposition research!”
Good one Dore, good one!
Jason Doré told the Times-Picayune on Thursday via text message that his name and former personal credit card bill address were used to create an account. A massive database of personal information and data, which included federal employees and military personnel, from the dating website for cheating spouses was released Wednesday by hackers.
“As the state’s leading opposition research firm, our law office routinely searches public records, online databases and websites of all types to provide clients with comprehensive reports,” Doré told the newspaper via text message. “Our utilization of this site was for standard opposition research. Unfortunately, it ended up being a waste of money and time.”
The newspaper reported his account started in 2013 and spent $175.98.
Michael Savage is so in love with Donald Trump, he’s even having dreams about the 2016 Republican presidential candidate.
While explain one of those dreams to his radio audience, Savage admitted that Trump is “getting into my subconscious.” He then said that Trump has made him more proud of himself, because now he can finally say “‘I worked hard, I achieved success, and I’m proud of it.’ I don’t have to hide it when he’s around in my mind. He’s already elevated the psyche of America, he’s already made America greater.”
Savage then gave Trump an assist in attacking Fox’s Megyn Kelly, calling her a “blondie” and “Marsha Washington,” saying that her debate questions helped Trump among women voters — “even black women” — because “they don’t like women putting men down. Most women in America are dying for a man, they are dying for a man to stand up, and I got to tell you something, he seems to be the only man in the campaign.”
He couldn’t deny it because the fact is clear. So hours after it was revealed that Josh Duggar, a Conservative icon who was once the Executive Director of the Family Research Council, had an Ashley Madison account, he was left with no option but to admit in a statement that he used the Ashley Madison account to pay for sex and did in fact, cheat on his wife.
‘I have been the biggest hypocrite ever. While espousing faith and family values, I have secretly over the last several years been viewing pornography on the internet and this became a secret addiction and I became unfaithful to my wife.
‘I am so ashamed of the double life that I have been living and am grieved for the hurt, pain and disgrace my sin has caused my wife and family, and most of all Jesus and all those who profess faith in Him.’
I have brought hurt and a reproach to my family, close friends and fans of our show with my actions.
Duggar was one of 37 million people who allegedly went to the Ashley Madison website with the sole intent of cheating on their spouse.
