So Donald Trump, after two
bad weeks under assault by the Stop Trump movement and Ted Cruz, did not cave
in, give up, or act like the petulant rich kid the news media believes he is.
Trump also learned a
valuable lesson; the media has far too much access to him, and use the access
to try to get him defeated. When Chris
Matthews, MSNBC anchor and Hillary Clinton worshiper got him on his show he
caused a whole lot of trouble by twisting Trumps comments on a hypothetical
abortion situation.
Then Cruz won Wisconsin , stole a few
delegates from Trump in a few minor states, and boldly preached he was the only
hope for the Establishment to stop Trump.
There is something soulless about Ted Cruz and his win at all costs
attitude. Cruz, who at one time was
public enemy number one to the Establishment he now claims to champion, is all
over the place.
When you take the son of a
preacher man, send him to Princeton and
Harvard where he became an exceptional debater, I guess you expect a return on
investment. What did the media fail to
tell you about the debate background of Cruz, debaters are trained masters at
advocating and defending BOTH sides of every issue with equal passion and
resolve.
In other words, you are a
professional at speaking out of both sides of your mouth or you cannot be a
Harvard Ivy League debater. Cruz can
point out without hesitation that he will double-cross any bridge thrown in
front of his campaign when he encounters it, and do it with hot passion, cold
facts, and an intellectual disregard for the lowly humans he so desperately
wants to represent.
After getting Ted the most
expensive education known to Mankind, he then jumped into politics where he met
his wife to be, a rapid climber in the Wall Street and presidential political
fields. Thus the protective shroud of
Goldman Sachs was bestowed on Ted who was bailed him out with a ONE MILLION
dollar secret Goldman loan to his Texas Senate race when he ran out of money
just before a run-off election.
Ted is just following in
the footsteps of many predecessors in politics like Bill Clinton, Hillary
Clinton, Rahm Emanuel, and Barack Obama to name a few, beholden to the Wall
Street behemoths like Goldman Sachs and their brethren.
In addition to the
"Establishment" which no one can define, add the news media to the
Stop Trump movement as they have devoted thousands of television hours and
millions of printed words trying to warn people of the dangers posed by a Trump
presidency, and promoting any effort by anyone to dump Trump.
The media called him a
clown, a joke, an idiot, and a loser before the campaign even started and as
more and more people joined the Trump populist revolution, the media found
themselves being defensive just like the Trump opponents. One by one Trump destroyed his opposition,
there were 17 candidates running for president.
The Stop Trump political
hacks threatened with losing their highly paid place in the American political
consultancy if Trump is successful, have spent tens of millions of dollars in
attack ads paid for by the Establishment fighting the Trump juggernaut.
Then came NYC with Trump
exploding past all prognosticators prognostications, whew, that was a mouthful,
and he not only broke the 50% barrier but destroyed it by winning 61% to 25%
for Kasich and 12% for Cruz. Hillary
Clinton walloped Bernie Sanders 58% to 42%.
In other words, the media
experts were wrong, the political experts were wrong, even the opposing
campaigns were wrong.
Then Trump demonstrated he
has learned a lot and made changes to address his problems. He hired new campaign aides, he has toned
down the criticism, stopped using derogatory nicknames for his opponents,
actually referred to Cruz as "Senator Cruz," and Trump only spoke for
eight minutes in one of the shortest victory speeches of the campaign.
Oh yeah, he also increased
his delegate lead to nearly 300 and greatly improved his chances of winning the
GOP nomination before the GOP convention.
Watch for a rapidly
changing campaign as the new Trump starts to shift into position to take on
Hillary in the general election. By the
way, for all the Democrats and news media who claim Trump cannot win the
presidential election because all women hate him, Trump won 57% of the women
vote in the primary.
Hillary provided the
knockout punch to Sanders but he has so far refused to fall to the canvas so
stay tuned. Sanders pushed Hillary into
becoming the most liberal, progressive, and near socialist candidate to ever
win the party candidacy.
Between her being the
champion for minorities and illegal residents, the champion for social issues,
and a left wing ideologue and demagogue, she has a long ways to shift to win
the middle of the road public in the general election.
