Title: GAME ON: TRUMP RESPONDS TO JEB

Billionaire GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump provided a statement to Breitbart News regarding Mitt Romney and Jeb Bush’s attacks on his immigration stance, reiterating his support for powerful border security and an immigration policy that serves American interests.

“Mr. Trump is concerned about the 90 million Americans that are outside our workforce, a Trump adviser told Breitbart News. “Jeb Bush wants to import more low-skilled, unemployed foreigners who will further drive down wages for the middle class.”

Read Trump’s statement below:

I am very proud to be fighting for a strong and secure border. This is a very important issue, which all the other candidates would have ignored had I not started this important discussion. I will fix the border — no one else knows where to begin.

Today, Jeb Bush once again proves that he is out of touch with the American people. Just like the simple question asked of Jeb on Iraq, where it took him five days and multiple answers to get it right, he doesn’t understand anything about the border or border security. In fact, Jeb believes illegal immigrants who break our laws when they cross our border come “out of love.”

As everybody knows, I never said that all Mexicans crossing the border are rapists. Jeb is mischaracterizing my statements only to inflame. As seen with the tragic and unnecessary death of Kathryn Steinle this past week in San Francisco at the hands of an illegal immigrant who was previously deported five times, our unsecured border is a national security threat.

Jeb will never be able to secure our border, negotiate good trade deals, strengthen our military or care for our veterans. The biggest difference between Jeb and me on the border is that I believe in securing our border by building a wall, which will protect our safety, economy and national security. This is a vital step in Making America Great Again!

The GOP cannot possibly win the Presidency with 26% of the Asian vote and 27% of the Latino vote. PERIOD.

The GOP is sleeping in a bed of their own making. That they would be in this situation was no surprise, but they went all out to change the demographics of America in favor of Democrats. I cannot look upon the GOP as an expert at winning elections, they are experts at losing election. That America would be demographically transformed was not chiseled in stone, it did not just happen, it was designed to happen. Democrats were smart, and the RINO's were corrupt.

America has been transformed, it was against my wishes but it was done. The ones I hold responsible are the billionaire donor class, these are the same type of oligarchs who destroyed the Roman Republic. Billionaires used their whores in congress to import socialism.

I would live to design a tax that hits liberals, and the way to do that is to sock it to the billionaire donor class. Billionaires are the biggest liberals in America. Lop a couple of zeros off the net worth of such left wing billionaires as Warren Buffet, Sheldon Adelson, Mark Zuckerberg and George Soros. Use the money to buy votes, the wealth and power concentrated into the hands of a rent seeking oligarchy has destroyed the America that was handed down. The SOB's who did that need to pay, and a lot of social spending has been driven by immigration used as a means of transferring wealth from wage earners to rent seekers.

The billionaire oligarchs are the logistic support for the transformation of America. Going after them is mining Haiphong harbor, rather than the futile effort wasted attacking the Ho Chi Minh trail. Do not wage war where the enemy is given a sanctuary.

An immigration moratorium will stop digging the hole larger, increase the value of labor and come out of the hides of the left wing billionaires. Pandering to groups that vote against you by increasing them is stupid. Pander to those who actually vote for you, the stupid RINO party does the exact opposite.

I could see this trend developing in the eighties, a blind man could see. But the RINO GOP talks like it was some sort of mega-trend that just developed that they had no control over.

We should not heed the advice of those who preach RINO nostrums. They've shown themselves to be fools or traitors. I'm happy to have a billionaire on our side for once.

That is a very good point. Along the same lines I was thinking. It is going to be interesting. I love him slamming Jeb. Jeb, Rubio, Perry, Christie, Romney, What they said only further ensures that I would never vote for them. I'll go third party again before those assholes.

That is awesome to see. However he does not actually need to win the GOP nomination to win, I fully expect the RINO RNC to use dirty tricks to cheat him. Trump has the Perot option available thanks to his billions. Perot was actually leading in the polls when he dropped out, he had the momentum and had a lot of people energized.

Trump is tough, other nations have been able to walk over the effeminate leftists who've occupied the Oval Office, and Americans take it in the shorts. This is the chance to have a guy with a pair who looks out for America first of all. He has a lot of people excited who've long been dismayed with the Hobbesian choices they've been presented with every 4th November.

When Trump said the truth about Mexican illegals (more or less), he crossed the Rubicon. There is no turning back now. The expression "go for broke" was never more true than right now in Trump's case. He is being called a racist - that is not an easy charge to come back from in the name brand business where your name is what companies are paying money for even if he drops out now and apologized it is too late for him financially. He has to go for the win at all costs now or he is consigned to oblivion.

That could depend on the Dem candidate. Hillary has a following but she also brings out her opposition in droves. Lots of Dems turned out to vote against her when she sought the nomination against then little known Obama.

She would surely turn out the GOP opposition, whoever the candidate is. She is not a good campaigner or politician.

There will be the anchor of Obama, Obamacare, same-sex marriage, and government lies too numerous to mention. Do the people want four more years?

By no means is this mission impossible for the GOP. Trump, if he is serious, will face serious opposition from the GOP party elite. He is not one of them, and they want to preserve their own power.

The gop could:

1. "Appeal to minorities" by attempting to educate them (and everyone else - gee what a concept) to the wonders of smaller, limited, Constitutional government. Admittedly, this would take time, much effort, and millions of dollars (to overcome the inherent lib-media bias).

Or, the gop could:

2. "Appeal to minorities" by simply out-promising whatever the democrats promise.

Any guesses as to what the stupid party will do?

It will be almost impossible in 2016. The situation will only get worse in 2020, 2024, 2028, etc.

The GOP have three enormous problems moving forward:

1.) The percentage of voters who are white have dropped from 88% in 1980 to 72% in 2012. This trend will quickly escalate because for the first time, more white people died than were born in 2014. Minorities overwhelmingly vote for Democrats.

2.) People are delaying marriage until their 30's. While a small majority of married women vote for Republicans, single women overwhelmingly vote for Democrats.

3.) There is a cultural cliff between people who are over 50 and people who are under 50 on a range of issues including gay marriage.

The GOP has to find a way to deal with all three to remain viable as a national party.

While I agree with part two, I disagree with part one, it was easy for the Lord to make me poor, but i was not worth several billions, only a couple of million.

Man could not do it, not George Mitchell nor Irving Oil companies Vern, so, my guess is that only God can financially destroy Donald and I can think of no reason for Him to do that.

I can think of many reasons why the master of the party of the democrat will try, but as we see in Job, it will fail without the permission of Christ.

The GOP has 31 governors. Many of these people got elected in states that haven't voted for a Republican Presidential candidate since Reagan. They were able to win because they focused on government reform and management competence. They are succeeding. For God's Sake, Rick Snyder turned Michigan -- the home of the UAW -- into a Right to Work state. This was beyond the realm of possibility a few years ago.

Trump certainly has credibility in terms of reform and management competence. However, the national media is going to destroy him with his own words about Obama's birth certificate and Mexicans. They will succeed in painting him as a crazy man and racist to people who vote for Republican Governors and Democrat Presidents.

I have already showed you the math.

Ronald Reagan won a record number of white voters in 1984 -- 66%.

The 2016 GOP nominee could match that record and still lose if they don't do better with minorities than Romney did 2012.

This is not ideology. It's simple mathematics. GOP voters are literally dying off. The GOP must find a way to appeal to minority voters if they want to ever regain the White House.

Percentage of the electorate that is white:

1984 - 86%
1988 - 85%
1992 - 87%
1996 - 83%

A miracle could occur and the GOP could nominate a candidate who appeals to "wetbacks" (as you call them).

I never said that this is beyond the realm of possibility.

What I said is that the 2016 nominee could get the same percentage of white votes than Reagan did in 1984 (66%), Bush did in 2004 (58%) and Romney did in 2012 (59%) and still lose the election if he/she doesn't do better among minorities than Romney did in 2012. That is because A.) white voters are dying off and B.) minority voters are taking their place.

It's simple arithmetic. The GOP has to find a way to appeal to minority voters.

So it is jwpegler; I had suspected as much. He'd set up a site called "Populist Voice" that flopped, funny thing is Donald Trump is appealing to te populist vote, and jwpegler is whining about it. Here's the thing Stone, the GOP has been doing things the jwpegler since 1988. Bush41, Dole, Bush43, McCain and Romney are the jwpegler candidates, and they've all moved America further to the left implementing the jwpegler policy of pandering to left wing globalist billionaires and illegal aliens.

A lot of white folks I know do not not vote anymore, because they perceive correctly that the jwpegler RINO GOP will stab them in the back. The way they talk of how Perot took votes from Bush41, as though they are entitled to peoples votes. A business that runs on the premise that it is "entitled" to some market share is bound for failure. Perot took zero votes from Bush41; because he was not entitled to those votes; and you don't earn peoples votes by stabbing them in the back like the jwpegler RINO's are always doing.

If you want to learn how to destroy a winning coalition that could pull off a 49 state landslide in 1984 then follow the jwpegler RINO "experts" like Tokyo Rove. Other than his home state of Minnesota the only electoral votes Mondale got were from the District of Columbia. The jwpegler RINO's have been hard at work transforming the demographics of America to match those of the District of Columbia, with predictable results come November.

If American patriots want to take back their inheritance they need to shun the advice of the jwpegler RINO's. They're the ones who made the present mess.

""2012 - 72%

Yes. 72% of those who cast a ballot were white. But only 64% of registered white voters cast a ballot.

Meaning that if white voters become motivated on some issue or cause and turn out to vote, we're talking about millions of people that cannot be matched by any minority bloc.

(Of course, they're not all Republicans.)

Amen sir. Another thing to consider, the number of whites is dropping, but that is because a number of white people marry people of other races. That would mean that the number of people with white blood is increasing even faster than if white people married only white people. If, instead of Dick marries Jane (remember those books from school) and they have 2 kids, Dick marries Megumi and Jane marries Tyrone, if each could has a pair of kids they will produce 4 kids with white blood.

Megumi and Tyrone joined our tribe. If we look out for our tribe we should just fine. The problem is that our tribe has been betrayed by the RINO GOP on behalf of left wing globalist billionaires who want cheap wages. Anyone who earns their living should be against that, whatever their race, the left wing globalist billionaires are waging war against American wages earners of every race.

Here is the problem with that:

1.) A majority of people who vote are women

2.) Single women voted for Barack Obama over Romney by a 38 point margin

3.) Single women are a growing percentage of the population because people are delaying marriage until they are in their 30's

4.) The Democrats are likely to nominate a woman for President for the first time in 2016

The Democrats have spent 50 years replacing husbands and fathers with government programs. Single women are a lost cause for the GOP, just like Blacks. This puts a hard ceiling on the percentage of whites who will vote for the GOP.

No, my philosophy is to face the facts and put a plan together to deal with the situation as it really is -- just like the 31 GOP governors who won the votes of people who also voted for Barack Obama.

On the other hand, you, Bob, and others seem to think there is this huge group of white "patriots" hiding in their living rooms, just waiting for the right GOP candidate to be nominated so they can come out and vote for him. It's not reality.

Chris Christie won 50% of the Latino vote. Romney won 27%. If Romney had won 50%, he would have been President.

LOL; very true! A lot of folks are unable to marry due to wages being busted down by RINO's and democrats appealing to the left wing globalist billionaires who want low wages. Henry Ford knew that he did not want low wages, he needed low labor costs, which is a totally different thing. Capital was invested into productivity so that he had low labor costs and high wages, a virtuous cycle.

Remember the America we grew up in? A husband could support his family with the wife staying home for the family, he could work in a full service gas station and afford a house. Most everything the family bought was made in America by other Americans who could afford to start a family and buy a house with dad as the breadwinner. That was a pretty sweet deal, it was the closest thing to a workers paradise. Pretty good no matter what race you were, if you were willing to work.

The RINO's and democrats have destroyed that America. We don't want to listen to the folks who've made the mess, all they know how to do is destroy a great nation. The present state of America is empirical evidence of their handiwork.

"1.) A majority of people who vote are women"

True. About 70 million women vs. 60 million men. Partly due to the fact that 64% of women vote vs. only 60% of men.

"2.) Single women voted for Barack Obama over Romney by a 38 point margin."

Single women. Overall, "Barack Obama won the women's vote by 12 percentage points while Mitt Romney prevailed among men by eight points". (Gallup)

"3.) Single women are a growing percentage of the population because people are delaying marriage until they are in their 30's"

Yes, but the "under 30" voter is a small percentage of the total number of voters (19% in 2012. 25% were over 60). In my opinion, single women are single issue voters -- abortion -- and the Republicans will be hard pressed to get their vote.

"4.) The Democrats are likely to nominate a woman for President for the first time in 2016"

That's the good news for women. The bad news is that it's Hillary. I haven't met a woman yet who likes her, Democrat or Republican. But I have a small number of like-minded friends.

Remember the America we grew up in? A husband could support his family with the wife staying home for the family, he could work in a full service gas station and afford a house. Most everything the family bought was made in America by other Americans who could afford to start a family and buy a house with dad as the breadwinner. That was a pretty sweet deal, it was the closest thing to a workers paradise. Pretty good no matter what race you were, if you were willing to work.

Yep, but that's when half of the world was rebuilding from WWII and half of the world descended into mindless communism. America was the only game in town in the 1940's, 50's and 60's. We manufactured 50% of the world's goods.

But over the last three decades, the fall of communism and the rise of the internet have brought 3+ billion new competitors into the world economy.

Yes, the America government over taxes and over regulates. Yes, they made some really bad trade deals. Yes, their immigration policy sucks. Worst of all, our rotten public schools don't prepare kids with the math and science fundamentals needed in today's economy. The government stinks. I am as angry about it as anyone.

But even if all of this was fixed, we still couldn't go back to a day when you could pump gas, screw lug nuts into tires on the assembly line, or perform some other unskilled labor and earn a middle class living. Those days are gone and they are never coming back even if he closed the borders and shut down world trade.

Did you know that we have a shortage of welders, pipe fitters and other good paying skilled trades in the country? There are 3 million open jobs going begging right now. Yet, 90 million adults are out of work. There is a skills gap and there is a motivation gap, both are the fault of government.

But over the last three decades

We have been sold out by globalist free trade.

The time of which I speak Europe and Japan had already recovered from WW2. Free trade had just begun, with the Kennedy round, but that was mainly with developed nations. We did not have open trade with China, and we did not have to "press 1 for English."

Our trade deals have been horrible. I know a bunch of folks who worked in the PCB industry, mostly they were immigrants from SEA after the Vietnam War. Many did not have any schooling, and English was the 2nd language for all of them. Those companies were able to use what skills they had and turn out a product, make a profit and pay back borrowed capital.

But was an industry America's ruling class decided we can do without. The left wing globalist billionaires outsourced just about all of that industry to China. Those workers were not white, and they were sold down the river by Clinton, Dubya and Obama. A Bush45 would do nothing for them, anymore than a Clinton45 would.

We have no need of shutting down world trade, this is always the false dichotomy presented by the RINO's. We merely need to live within our means, spending no more abroad than we earn abroad. Right now we have a government bought and paid for by the left wing globalist billionaires. They are the enemy of wage earners of every color, we can unite against a common enemy.

It will be almost impossible in 2016.

The number of GOP hopefuls says loudly that Hillary is vulnerable. The Dem problem for 2016 is marketing a terrible candidate/campaigner.

Very true. But why do you think the GOP will nominate anyone better?

Japan was mostly known for cheap transistor radios at that time. They didn't become an economic powerhouse in autos and consumer electronics until the late 1970's / early 1980's.

I certainly agree with that. But here is the real problem -- the Federal Reserve pumps out trillions of dollars not backed by anything of value. The politicians hand those dollars to special interests, like government bureaucrats and welfare recipients. Those people go to Walmart and buy cheap products made in China.

As long as China and other countries allow us to slough off inflated dollars on them, nothing is going to change. They will continue to take those dollars until the dollar stops being the world's reserve currency. When that happens, we will be in serious trouble.

I don't. I mean, why do the parties want to break the streak they are on? The people can choose the tool they think sucks the least.
