It is interesting to read about Jeb Bush, Carly Fiorina, and John Kasich remarks on the Sunday talk shows. Here are three candidates who are in the bottom of the barrel and by their remarks you would think they are the top contenders and in control of who is going to be nominated to represent the Republican Party.
Instead of letting the people determine this, these three Elites just can’t get it through their skull that the American people will make that decision and as one of those citizens I am tired of all this ragging within the party.
Why don’t they do what they are supposed to do as a nominee – just go out there and present themselves and let the process work itself out instead of interfering with the process. They are spending too much time trying to beat up on each other rather than focus on the Democrats who are running in opposition. Enough is enough of the three of you.
I can guarantee the Republican Party will suffer if they try to interfere with the process or is that what the Elites are doing again – trying to let the Democrats win again because we know all three of them are Elites.
Jeb Bush says he would support Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton. Down right nice of Jebby. Wouldn’t be surprised if he threw his support for Clinton since Big Daddy Bush is so cozy with hubby Clinton.
As far as John Kasich is concerned – he has already shot himself in the foot with that ad which he was a part of and should be ashamed of himself – that alone should disqualify him as being a candidate. He is not even qualified to be elected dog catcher.
The former Florida governor thinks that outcome unlikely, however, because the more voters hear of Trump, particularly on foreign policy, “the less likely he’s going to get the Republican nomination”.
Another candidate, John Kasich, was asked on Sunday whether he would commit to supporting Trump should he win the nomination. The Ohio governor, whose campaign this week released an ad that appeared to compare Trump to Hitler, would not say whether he would or not. Instead, like Bush, he said Trump would not win the nod.
(When Kasich makes such a statement – it sounds like he is threatening Trump – why is he so sure – is he up to something sinister?)
Bush, who trails Trump by some distance in polls regarding the sizable Republican field, was speaking to CBS in an interview broadcast on Sunday morning, excerpts of which were published by Politico. Though Trump’s lead fell by 12 points in one recent poll, he has surfed a number of controversies over comments made on the campaign trail to maintain a healthy advantage.
(The only reason he continues in the polls is because the media and the powers continue to keep him in the polls as if he is still a viable candidate.)
The spectre of an independent run by Trump has hung over the Republican presidential field, despite an assurance by the candidate himself that it will not happen. Attacks on Trump by other candidates recently have revived such fears.
Before his run-in with the New York Times this week, over his appearing to mimic a reporter’s disability during a campaign speech, Trump caused an uproar when he appeared to agree with a suggestion that all Muslims in the US should be registered and mosques closed.
(The reporter stuck his nose out there and got it cut off – the reporter can dish it out but can’t take it when someone fights back. Regarding the Muslims and the mosques, since we have no idea who is in this country, legally, it would be a good idea to check them out.)
He has also repeatedly insisted that Muslims in New Jersey were seen to celebrate the 9/11 attacks – a claim refuted by New Jersey residents, fact checkers, the New York Times reporter and police.
(Yes, the fact checkers lie, too, especially the New York Times Communist newspaper. A lot of the reporters with the NY Times are foreigners who are working in the USA to cause trouble and they do a bang up job in the regards.)
On Saturday, at a rally in Sarasota, Florida, he widened his approach to the subject, saying: “Worldwide, the Muslims were absolutely going wild.”
Speaking to NBC on Sunday, Trump insisted he was “100% right” when he said he saw Muslims in Jersey City, New Jersey, cheering the 9/11 attacks.
(And it is true, check CNN, Anderson Coopers video. The media continue to say it is not true and it is – they continue to lie as usual.)
Bush told CBS: “Look, I just think he’s uninformed … He knows what he’s saying. He’s smart. He’s playing you guys like a fiddle – the press – by saying outrageous things and garnering attention. That’s his strategy, is to dominate the news.”
(Why does Jebby seem to get so much air time?)
The entire Republican field has grappled with the issue of security and the correct attitude to refugees from the Syrian civil war, particularly in the aftermath of the terror attacks in Paris this month that killed 130 and injured hundreds more and were claimed by Islamic State militants.
Their responses have prompted extensive criticism for alleged Islamophobia. This weekend, Ben Carson, who compared Syrian refugees to “rabid dogs”, was in Jordan visiting a refugee camp. In a statement from his campaign, he said the US should not take in any of the people he met.
Trump’s Dangerous Rhetoric, an ad released this week by John Kasich’s presidential campaign.
Ben Carson meets Syrian refugees in Jordan but says none should come to US
Bush, like Texas senator Ted Cruz and Florida senator Marco Rubio, has called for Christian refugees to be given priority concerning entry to the US, a position which President Obama called “shameful”.
“We do not have religious tests for our compassion,” the president said.
Speaking to CBS, Bush said of Trump: “The simple fact is that he’s been wrong on Syria and on the refugees pretty consistently. And no one’s holding him to account.”
Asked if he would support Trump for the presidency if he won the primary contest which begins in Iowa on 1 February, Bush said: “Look, I’ve said … because anybody is better than Hillary Clinton. Let me just be clear about that.
“But I have great doubts about Donald Trump’s ability to be commander-in-chief … I’ll let the voters decide about Donald Trump. I’m pretty confident that the more they hear of him, the less likely he’s going to get the Republican nomination.”
(Rag, rag, and more rag from the bottom of the barrel.)
On ABC, Kasich said: “He’s not going to make it. You know why he’s not going to make it? Because somebody who divides this country here in the 21st century, who’s calling names of women and Muslims and Hispanics and mocking reporters, then say[ing] I didn’t do it but he did do it … it’s just not going to happen.”
(Kasich sounds like a sore loser.)
Kasich concluded: “And everybody needs to get over it and take a deep breath.”
(And Kasich needs to go back to being the governor of Ohio – hasn’t Kasich done enough to hurt the country and talking about other candidates being Nazis?)
On Fox News Sunday, the former Hewlett-Packard chief executive Carly Fiorina said Trump’s game plan is to say something “insulting, offensive, outrageous”, so that the “media pays attention” and then he “claims we all misunderstood him.”
“This is the pattern perhaps of an entertainer,” she said. “It’s certainly not a pattern of a leader.”
(And Fiorina knows so much about being a leader when she couldn’t even hold her job as a leader and was fired and walked out with a GOLDEN PARACHUTE?)
