Trump Is No Pro-Lifer
Post Date: 2016-03-31 10:14:26 by Tooconservative
33 Comments
When candidates for high office are faking it in order to persuade a party's base that, appearances and past record to the contrary notwithstanding, they really, really are “with the program,” they step into dangerous territory. They need to say what the base wants to hear. Indeed, they need to sound like one of the faithful. But since they are faking it, and not actually speaking from conviction, the risk is grave that they will say something that blows their cover. Indeed, the risk is always there that they will say something that sounds to true believers like a caricature or burlesque of the philosophy they are purporting to embrace. Do you recall when it happened to ...

National Review on Trump and abortion [by popular request] [Full Thread]
Post Date: 2016-03-31 10:09:58 by Tooconservative

It’s Time for Conservatives to Blackball Donald TrumpIan Tuttle And just like that, the Republican presidential contest has veered into Todd Akin territory. In a taped Wisconsin townhall with MSNBC voters, set to air Wednesday evening, Donald Trump says that, if abortion becomes illegal in the United States, the mother involved should be subject “some form of punishment.” Here’s the video: Let me start here, for form’s sake: There is a valid philosophical question here. If you carry out the logic of the pro-life position, what should it entail, legally? As it happens, several leading abortion opponents addressed this question here at National Review in a 2007 ...

Donald Trump in Wisconsin: ‘The Establishment Is Trying to Take It Away from Us’
Post Date: 2016-03-31 07:10:39 by cranky

Donald Trump battled the Establishment’s dirty delegate tricks in front of a packed ballroom of about a thousand people in Appleton Wednesday. With less than a week to go until the Wisconsin primary, Trump came out swinging — against Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), against the Establishment lining up behind Cruz in order to keep Trump below 1,237 delegates so they can broker it in Cleveland, and against Cruz’s supporter Governor Scott Walker. “The Establishment is trying to take it all away from us, folks. They’re trying so hard,” he said, noting the fact that he won Louisiana but still ended up with less delegates there than Cruz. The crowd booed. “You tell me. ...

Yesterday was not a good day for Donald Trump. He found himself still mired in the mess he has created by attacking Heidi Trump, an act so egregious that Ann Coulter has called him “mental.” Worse still, his moronic communications director put him on the air with three conservative Wisconsin talk radio hosts, one of whom is in the #NeverTrump movement, who made it clear what kind of a buffoon he really is. Today he was in friendlier territory. Afraid to call into a Wisconsin station, he called into a radio station in Rockford, IL, that reaches into Wisconsin.   TRUMP: All I did was quote numbers from a story that I had confirmed. But you had a $2.2 billion budget deficit ...

Lyin' Ted Cruz Campaign Refuses to Give FEC Details of Campaign Loans from Goldman Sachs...

Interesting development. It appears the Cruz Campaign is planning to slow walk the information on the 2011/2012 campaign loans: (Yahoo News) Ted Cruz has rebuffed a request by the Federal Election Commission to disclose more information about some $1 million in loans he received from two major Wall Street banks during his 2012 Senate campaign. In a letter to the FEC this week, the treasurer of Cruz’s 2012 campaign turned down a request by agency auditors to reveal in writing “the complete terms” of two personal loans Cruz received from Goldman Sachs and Citibank — the proceeds of which, he has since acknowledged, he used to finance his upstart race for the Senate. ...

Ted Cruz’s senate e-address was a subscriber of Ashley Madison adultery ‘dating’ service

Last July, Ashley Madison, the Canadian-based online “dating service” for adulterers with 37 million subscribers, was hacked by a group that calls itself the Impact Team. The hackers made public the personal information of the subscribers, including their names, email addresses, and sexual fantasies. Some of the subscribers actually used their work email addresses, as shown by the many addresses that end in .gov, .mil, a company name (e.g., WellsFargo), a university name (UTexas), and even the United Nations. (See my post “Ashley Madison was a giant con: 2 subscribers commit suicide; female subscribers are fake“) What we weren’t told then is that there was one ...

Lewandowski Case Shows How Donald Trump Is Gaslighting America
Post Date: 2016-03-31 04:55:41 by Tooconservative
25 Comments
Donald Trump is lying to us, and instead of calling him out on it we’re all still playing along. The term “gaslighting” comes to us from a play called “Gas Light,” written in 1938 by British playwright Patrick Hamilton. The play focuses on an abusive husband in the 1880s who convinces his wife that she is going crazy. One of his methods is lowering the gaslights and telling her it hasn’t gotten any darker. It’s all in her imagination. Donald Trump has been playing this game on the American people, or at least a meaningful portion of it, for five months now. Telling us that Trump University was a success. Telling us that he only worked with the mafia ...

New theory among anti-Trumpers: He’s deliberately sabotaging his campaign
Post Date: 2016-03-31 04:47:07 by Tooconservative
0 Comments
This theory isn’t new, really, but it is more prominent among #NeverTrumpers on social media lately thanks to Trump’s recent hot streak — insulting Heidi Cruz, defending Corey Lewandowski and doubling down on attacking Michelle Fields, and today’s latest master stroke, taking a dump on national TV on 40 years’ worth of carefully constructed pro-life messaging. The best statement of the theory I’ve seen lately is this Twitter tirade by Lachlan Markay. If Trump was trying to blow up his own campaign, would he be doing anything different right now? Here’s a frightening thought in light of the last few days: what if Trump is actively attempting to sabotage ...

Trump: If abortion is banned, there has to be some form of punishment for women who do it [Full Thread]

Charles Cooke calls this an ideological Turing test, i.e. a question whose answer reveals how plausible it is that Trump really is who he claims to be. The standard answer from nearly all serious pro-lifers is that it’s the abortionist, not his patient, who should be sanctioned if and when abortion is banned. The March of Life explains why: “Mr. Trump’s comment today is completely out of touch with the pro-life movement and even more with women who have chosen such a sad thing as abortion,” said Jeanne Mancini, President of the March for Life Education and Defense Fund. “Being pro-life means wanting what is best for the mother and the baby.

Oh my: Cruz 40, Trump 30, Kasich 21 in Wisconsin

Noteworthy for many reasons, starting with the fact that it shows Cruz out to what’s easily his biggest lead in Wisconsin this month. Two other recent polls had him up by one point and five points, respectively; a third had Trump by two. This is the only poll taken over the past six days, though, which raises the question of whether it’s an outlier or it’s picking up recent movement towards Cruz for unknown reasons. Another reason it’s noteworthy is the time frame. It was conducted between last Thursday and this past Monday, meaning that it did include several days of polling after the National Enquirer story about Cruz broke but didn’t include any polling after ...

Ann Coulter Worries Donald Trump Is Mental

When your most loyal media supporter is saying you’re mental, it should send a message to any normal campaign that you ought to reconsider your course. On Face the Nation on Sunday, I argued that prior to the past week, Donald Trump had made just one tactical mistake: skipping the last debate before Iowa.   This past week they made two: failing to grasp the importance of delegate operations and engaging in a misguided and unnecessary attack on Heidi Cruz. The former is the bigger mistake: the Cruz delegate operation is forcing Trump to get to the delegate majority by working to ensure in states like Louisiana and elsewhere that Trump could lose on a second ballot. In the context ...

Donald Trump: National race 'pretty much over' if I win Wisconsin

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump, speaking to a crowd of 1,000 here Tuesday, predicted a win in Wisconsin’s April 5 primary could decisively swing the national GOP race in his favor. Trump said the national contest would be “pretty much over” should he prevail in Wisconsin, where he faces U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas and Ohio Gov. John Kasich. As Trump protesters and supporters massed outside the Janesville Convention Center, Trump told the crowd he is less tied to special interests than his rivals. He insisted he is better-positioned to bring jobs back to American shores. Trump also took aim at Gov. Scott Walker, the executive of the state he hopes to win ...

Every single New York superdelegate reached by the Daily News said they would never support the Brooklyn-born Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders. Maybe the system really is rigged. At least a half-dozen Democratic superdelegates in New York State who have already decided to support Hillary Clinton said Tuesday they would maintain their allegiance to her — regardless of the results of the Empire State’s primary. Even if Sanders were to win the April 19 New York presidential contest, when a whopping 247 delegates are at stake, every single New York superdelegate reached by the Daily News said they would never back the Vermont senator. “Absolutely not,” Elizabeth Stanley, the ...

What did CNN do to treat Trump unfairly? They had commentators on panels that criticized him. What did the RNC do to treat Trump unfairly, and thus negate his pledge to support the party’s nominee whoever it turned out to be? Er … Mitt Romney criticized him.

As the Bernie Sanders campaign accepts the reality that securing enough votes at this point to win the Democratic nomination outright is impossible, it has moved on to a new phase in its long-shot bid for the White House: hijack Hillary Clinton’s so-called superdelegates.Sanders advisors are targeting these party leaders and elected officials who have outsized influence in deciding who gets to be the Democratic nominee, and whom Hillary Clinton moved swiftly and aggressively to lock down early in the race. Each one of their votes at the convention in July is weighted as heavily as those of thousands of voters. Clinton has 469 of them in her corner. Sanders has just 29.Sanders advisors ...

Galluping Towards Disaster Every piece of evidence we have about the 2016 general election and the world around us points in the same direction: if nominated, Donald Trump would lose, and likely lose badly. The fact that Trump has defied expectations in the primary and survived numerous incidents (seemingly almost daily) that would end any other political career has given pundits and analysts an almost superstitious, gunshy awe of predicting failure for him – thus the “lol nothing matters” response you often get when you discuss both Trump’s obvious, glaring weaknesses and his pitiably weak standing in the polls. But the one straw commonly grasped by Trump supporters ...
