Playtime for millionaires is over, someone close to “The Donald” (who he can’t fire for uttering a discouraging word ) has to approach him and let him know that it’s time to put his “abortive” experiment to bed and suspend his campaign. (or douse the dumpster fire, whichever analogy fits)
And while he had a good run and perhaps accomplished a few things like downing political correctness and selling red baseball caps the damage has been excessively conspicuous.
Let’s face it, while politicians aren’t the most sought after in terms of honesty and forthrightness, they do have their place in polite society. You hire a brain surgeon to do brain surgery, a property developer to develop property and a political personality to handle politics. We all have a place on God’s green earth with a purpose to fulfill and one must play to one’s strengths.
The past few weeks has shown that “The Donald” is way out of his element in terms of his innate abilities and weaknesses. A man who cannot hold his tongue (or Tweet as the case may be) shows himself to be particularly unsuitable for high office – especially the first time off the starting blocks. Such “non political” celebrities can be supremely entertaining in the reality show of life, but when it comes to matters of life and death the man (or woman) you want one who takes a considered approach to and thinks before speaking (or tweeting) out lest damage control becomes a repeated functionality in an ever tightening feedback loop.
Each new day brings forth embarrassing manifestations, the man can’t speak without putting his foot in his mouth (Too bad that expression isn’t related to his hands – they might fit with room to spare, but I digress) Instead of unified thought he flies off the handle with insults and gaffes that cost several precious news cycles off message to mitigate the damage.
Consider this enumeration of the succession of debacles that stand out as the most egregious in the past few weeks.
Instead of quickly apologizing to Michelle Fields the Trumpster choose to act like a leftist thug attacking and trying to denigrate her story. Trump fans taunted her with questions of why she didn’t file a police report and why there was no video of the event after which the whole thing blew up in their collectives faces.
The re-tweet attack on the wife of the Ted Cruz – along with his other chauvinistic calamities -should put him is good stead to lose100% of the female vote, which appears to be his sought-after goal.
Donald Trump has LOST several contests in a row, with his polling in a nosedive and his campaign in alert condition Orange.
All of this culminating in the Trumpster’s ignominious defeat in Wisconsin, his 4th in a row. And instead being magnanimous in that defeat Trump choose to be petty and vindictive, along with hurling a spurious accusation of the commission of a Federal crime. These are not the confident actions of a man on a winning streak but the contemptible misdeeds of a failure in a steep decline.
Part of the man’s appeal is his whining. Er.. winning.. but his polls are tanking and he’s losing primaries even with his friends in the media provide him with 5 times the coverage
Trump’s numerous gaffes, missteps and flip-flops makes it plain the man is not ready for prime time, he’s not even ready for late night infomercials for the “Trump network”.
This is not to mention that the man is destined to lose in the November election, an election the right should win with their eyes closed. Bear in mind this is not a candidate who made a few missteps and can recover, this is a man who’s been in the public eye for decades. Trumps is a very a polarizing figure, people either hate the man or have fallen for his scams and schemes. This time around is no different, Trumpfins seem not to care about each new revelation and colossal mistake and blithely go on supporting the man. This aside for the folks supporting Trump from the other side who are salivating at a landslide victory against him.
Side note: Shouldn’t “Republicans” who support Trump be abjectly horrified by all of his antics over the past few weeks? And yet they are not…… makes you contemplate if they are truly “Republicans”?
It’s assured that Trump has some temporary advantages, primarily a fawning media that lets him have full reign with his Trump Scam infomercial with nary a hard question asked. But were the Trumpster to get the nomination that advantage would quickly turn around with the left now out to get him at each turn. The same holds true for all the Temporary cross over voters from the left trying to choose the worst possible candidate for our side.
In summary, we are seeing a campaign fly apart before our very eyes, wrecking itself on the rocks of history. Shouldn’t we put it out of our misery while there is still time to save the country?
For the good of the Country and the world, it’s time for Trump to exit the race.
With TrumpTrainWreck taking place right now, it seems like he’s already doing this via slow motion..
Ann,
Propaganda must be planned and executed by only one authority.
a. It must issue all the propaganda directives.
b. It must explain propaganda directives to important officials and maintain their morale.
c. It must oversee other agencies’ activities which have propaganda consequences
you and Joseph Goebbels have a lot in common-typical liberal demorat.
ann, read a little more history before you spread more journalistic manor-review was useless and punctuated your stupidity
Tsk tsk Ann can only hope that Trump exits now because I haven’t seen any polls that show Cruz winning another primary anytime soon
Trump has 1/3 more delegates now than Cruz if the nomination does not go to the man with the most delegates at the convention will the trump people feel obligated to vote for whomever the establishment puts in ?
Mob rule vs the Establishment
Make some more popcorn this is going to be a nail biter
@mos 8541:
Mossy does love and admire the will and effiencey of those right wing Nazi Germans
If you really do want to win act like them
Trump and Kasich are not going anywhere. Til after the convention, Trump then if not chosen may go 3rd .Trump loves all this attention.I havent a clue why the other guy hangs on.
John: Trump was polled at 20 pts ahead in Wisconsin, oh your candidate Ms Clinton also was suppose to win. Trump screwed a lot of investors in NY maybe not as loved as his polls show. Time will tell.
It’s ironic that the same people that are calling Trump a fascist are the ones demanding he withdraw from the campaign and that all his supporters fall in line with the party bosses..
When i got to this point:
You hire a brain surgeon to do brain surgery, a property developer to develop property and a political personality to handle politics. We all have a place on God’s green earth with a purpose to fulfill and one must play to one’s strengths.
I knew it had to be an ignorant nut job that wrote the rest of the article… a person who had and has no idea about our political system, and has not read the federalist papers, the works of jefferson, and more.
Remember how the Constitution Starts:
We the people…
not
We the representatives of the people….
The way this system here is set up, ordinary people are to run for office to represent people from where they live and their constituency of others they know. they were to get some cash for the service then return to their lives..
the place for professional politicians was in the soviet union, maoist china (and current china), and most other dictatorships where the people do not elect other people, but the professional politicians control everything (including who is a professional politician for life).
One explanation why the French Revolution, which started in 1789, spiraled out of control into violence and dictatorship and the American Revolution did not is that Americans were used to governing themselves and the French were not.
-=-=-=-=-
A deep distrust of political power–especially executive power–had always been a part of this tradition of self-government. So when the newly independent Americans drew up their state constitutions in 1776, many states limited the number of terms their governors or state legislators could hold office. In Pennsylvania, state assemblymen were term-limited so they would “return to mix with the mass of the people and feel at their leisure the effects of the laws which they have made.”
Jefferson thought that without term limits, the President would always be re-elected and thus would serve for life. When he became President he stepped down after two terms, affirming the precedent that Washington had established when he stepped down after his second term. (After Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected to four consecutive terms starting in 1932, Washington’s precedent became law with the ratification in 1951 of the 22nd Amendment, which limits Presidents to two terms in office.)
“We think experience has proved it safer for the mass of individuals composing the society to reserve to themselves personally the exercise of all rightful powers to which they are competent and to delegate those to which they are not competent to deputies named and removable for unfaithful conduct by themselves immediately.” –Thomas Jefferson to P. Dupont, 1816.
“All [reforms] can be… [achieved] peaceably by the people confining their choice of Representatives and Senators to persons attached to republican government and the principles of 1776; not office-hunters, but farmers whose interests are entirely agricultural. Such men are the true representatives of the great American interest and are alone to be relied on for expressing the proper American sentiments.” –Thomas Jefferson to A. Campbell, 1797.
“A government by representatives elected by the people at short periods was our object, and our maxim… was, ‘where annual election ends, tyranny begins;’ nor have our departures from it been sanctioned by the happiness of their effects.” –Thomas Jefferson to S. Adams, 1800.
“Our public economy is such as to offer drudgery and subsistence only to those entrusted with its administration–a wise and necessary precaution against the degeneracy of the public servants.” –Thomas Jefferson to M. de Meunier, 1795.
“I have the consolation of having added nothing to my private fortune during my public service and of retiring with hands as clean as they are empty.” –Thomas Jefferson to Diodati, 1807.
“I proposed the representatives (and not the people) should choose the [State] Senate… To make them independent I had proposed that they should hold their places for nine years and then go out (one third every three years) and be incapable forever of being re-elected to that house. My idea was that if they might be re-elected, they would be casting their eye forward to the period of election (however distant) and be currying favor with the electors and consequently dependent on them. My reason for fixing them in office for a term of years rather than for life was that they might have an idea that they were at a certain period to return into the mass of the people and become the governed instead of the governor, which might still keep alive that regard to the public good that otherwise they might perhaps be induced by their independence to forget.” –Thomas Jefferson to E. Pendleton, 1776.
“I apprehend that the total abandonment of the principle of rotation in the offices of President and Senator will end in abuse.” –Thomas Jefferson to E. Rutledge, 1788.
“If some period be not fixed, either by the Constitution or by practice, to the services of the First Magistrate, his office, though nominally elective, will in fact be for life; and that will soon degenerate into an inheritance.” –Thomas Jefferson to Weaver, 1807.
[yeah, just look at the kennedys, the cuomo family, etc]
“General Washington set the example of voluntary retirement after eight years. I shall follow it, and a few more precedents will oppose the obstacle of habit to anyone after a while who shall endeavor to extend his term. Perhaps it may beget a disposition to establish it by an amendment of the Constitution.” –Thomas Jefferson to J. Taylor, 1805.
“If the principle of rotation be a sound one, as I conscientiously believe it to be with respect to this office, no pretext should ever be permitted to dispense with it, because there never will be a time when real difficulties will not exist and furnish a plausible pretext for dispensation.” –Thomas Jefferson to H. Guest, 1809.
“I dislike, and greatly dislike, the abandonment in every instance of the necessity of rotation in office and most particularly in the case of the President.” –Thomas Jefferson to J. Madison, 1787.
i wonder why the person running flopping aces would put up such idiocy masquerading as erudite commentary?
sad… want more quotes as to dangers of professional politicians?
Americans have long been suspicious of professional politicians.
Tocqueville approvingly noted the absence of “public careers” in America; and an 1836 issue of the Democratic Review proclaimed that in America “we have no great faith in professional politicians.” Reacting to the emergence of statism in American at the end of the 19th century, scholars began warning of the dangers inherent in the rise of professional politicians. In The American Commonwealth, James Bryce lamented that the new class of political professionals “has tended to keep amateurs out of” politics. One result of that “new class,” according to Westley W. Willoughby, was a legislature “favorable to the class in power.” Scholars as politically diverse as Charles E. Beard and Edward S. Corwin could agree that professional politicians were on the rise in America, jeopardizing the health of the democratic process.
Most of the ills this person would complain about are due to the change in our political system to professional politicians!!!
ie. the cure for cancer our author suggests, is more cancer
from Cato Inst:
No longer “citizen-legislators,” congressmen have turned the privilege of political representation into life- long careers. During the second half of the 20th century, elected officials in America have spent more time in public office than during any other period in American history. Throughout the 19th century congressmen served an average of one or two terms before voluntarily returning to their communities to resume careers or pursue other endeavors. During the last 40 years, the average length of service in the House has ranged from four to five terms. An average of 15 percent of House members have served for 20 or more years! It is notable that for much of the 19th century members of Congress did not want to make a career of service in either the House or the Senate. “What the early House lacked was not safe seats,” explains H. Douglas Price, “but a desire and incentive to retain one’s seat.” James Sterling Young captures the disdain of the representatives who served in Washington between 1800 and 1828: “No one acknowledged either taste or talent for politics. The members professed themselves to be misfits in a vocation reprobated as ‘a species of mania,’ ‘an unprofitable way of life.'” As more congressmen have spent more time in office than ever before, congressional turnover has declined precipitously. Throughout the 19th century the average congressional turnover was slightly higher than 50 percent at each election. Today turnover due to death, retirement, or electoral defeat hovers around 10 percent.
A general aversion to making a career of legislative service also characterized state and local politicians dur- ing the 19th century. Albert Bushnell Hart offers this turn-of-the-century assessment:
Another novelty in American government was the principle of rotation in office . . . democracy could not admit that government was a profession, and after 1830 it was rare for governors to serve more than two or three terms, and legislatures changed rapidly. As more and more offices were taken out of the hands of legislatures and city councils and subjected to popular vote, the opportunities for rotation became more numerous; until by 1860 the fact that a man was in office was rather a presumption that he ought not be reelected.
However, the reluctance to pursue legislative careers has dissolved during the past two decades, at least at the state level. New York’s state legislature, for example, has “become a career-oriented institution that [offers] its senior members high salaries and enough electoral security, staff, and personal influence to make service in Albany increasingly competitive with service in Washington.” The same might also be said of the California legislature, as well as the legislatures of most other industrialized states.
the following:
The past few weeks has shown that “The Donald” is way out of his element in terms of his innate abilities and weaknesses. A man who cannot hold his tongue (or Tweet as the case may be) shows himself to be particularly unsuitable for high office
shows again the ignorance of the author:
Who said this and about whom?
“hideous hermaphroditical character, which has neither the force and firmness of a man, nor the gentleness and sensibility of a woman.”
Jefferson commenting on Adams
to which Adams replied:
“a mean-spirited, low-lived fellow, the son of a half-breed Indian squaw, sired by a Virginia mulatto father.”
Martha Washington said this of jefferson: “one of the most detestable of mankind.”
John Quincy Adams was labeled a pimp
Andrew Jackson’s wife was called a slut
“His whole life has been one continued insult to good manners and to decency.” – Adams commenting on Ben Franklin
“That bastard brat of a Scottish peddler! His ambition, his restlessness and all his grandiose schemes come, I’m convinced, from a superabundance of secretions, which he couldn’t find enough whores to absorb!”
Adams on Alexander Hamilton
“What a poor, ignorant, malicious, crapulous mass.”
Adams commenting on Thomas Paine’s “common sense”
“That Washington is not a scholar is certain. That he is too illiterate, unlearned, unread for his station is equally beyond dispute.”
Adams on our first president who decided to step down rather than be king
It’s assured that Trump has some temporary advantages, primarily a fawning media…
Trump has a fawning media? what freaking drug addled lsd inspired view come from?
Trump NEVER GETS GOOD PRESS even if he does something good…
Trumpf family, is a classic american success story.
Rags to Riches…
His grandfather came to the US at 16… worked really hard, 6 years as a barber, other years as a hotel clerk. and he amased a fortune… $30,000… which, when he died at 49 of the flue, he left to Trumps grandmother. it was his grandmother (when feminist said women could not own property… tell that to old lady chase who created chase bank, and madam CJ walker, the first female milloinaire, who was black and lived in harlem before the democrats and unions murdered and destroyed their businesses post civil war during the draft riots)..
she bought some property, and arranged for some construction workers to build some homes on it, then sold them to some people (financed herself) to which they paid her the mortgage.
later, his father, fred, while underage, started to run the business and built up the real estate, while mom signed the papers since fred wasnt legal.
Trump eventually took over that real estate business, and expanded it… how much? to 560 subsidiares in over 20 countries, and over 30,000 employees…
to wit that unlike hillary, the professional politician worth 100 million cryuing poverty, and collecting others money and pushing soviet style communism (see her wesley papers)…
yes, lets have profesional politicians…
after all, Cruz has Neils Bush on his team, a man who created the silverado scandal, that costed 1.5 billion of our tax money..(trump never costed you anything, did he?)
and lets add to that, Elliot, a great man, who negated a treaty, violated the constitution, brought crack cocain to the slums of the US, and tried to overthrow without permission, a foreign government… to wit another professional politician, pardoned him…
oh. and you cant forget barnie, a professional politician who is running the nationalized real estate business (Fanny and Freddie)… he was so professional, he dated a male prostitute, who was running a whore house of males from Barnies home… to wit, he had to stop, when barnie gave him an aids job in congress… Barnie was reprimanded by the House for fixing 33 parking tickets for Steve Gobie, a male escort who lived with Frank and claimed to have conducted an escort service from Frank’s apartment without his knowledge
great examples of pro politicians
oh, and then there is ted kennedy, a profssional lion of the senate who decded he wanted reagan to lose so badly, that he colluded with the soviet KGB…
you want more expamples of professional politicians?
How about bill clinton, who violated an intern with an object in the oval office to wit future kids visiting the smithsonian would then go walking, walking walking, to wit the person giving the trip will say “now kids pay attention, here you see the famous dress with the semen stain on it”.. January 26, 1998, “I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky.”
he and his wife were so professional, they pried the keys off the keyboards of the white house computers for the next person… leaving $15,000 in damage for us non professionals to pay for
yeah, pros are so much better…
How about Huma Abedin (Muslim Brotherhood) husband Anthony Weiner?
Eric Massa, U.S. Representative (D-NY)? he kept fondling the young men…
John Edwards, Senator (D-NC) and film producer Rielle Hunter, having and making a baby while his wife was doing what?
Larry Craig (R-ID) Lewd conduct in a mens room?
Strom Thurmond, Senator (R-SC), noted segregationist, fathered a child, Essie Mae Washington-Williams, with a 15-year-old African American in 1925 who was employed by the Thurmond family
@mos 8541: Let’s see – for those not versed in the mannerisms and method of those who support Trump, the use of childish insults is clue number one.
[isn’t it fascinating how supporters of Trump will turn around and complain about name calling while he and they engage in the practice on a regular basis?]
Just curious, but why do you assume that those who oppose Trump are on the left?
If you could, Please check out sites where leftists congregate and you will see them openly discussing how they are eagerly anticipating trouncing him in the fall.
Get it straight: Conservatives oppose Trump because he ISN’T CONSERVATIVE!!
@John: Those people were Socialists i.e. Leftists. Explain that away aside from using the tired old and meaningless ‘North Korea’ talking point.
@Artfldgr: Just a guess: Trump supporter?
Melba Boffin: a bit…
but mostly cause all the others have crap knowlege of their own country, laws, etc…
Prior to all these elections i met the man, and each time i did (except the first), he actually remembered me – which as a photographer can be exceptional… (at that time i was doing fashion week and other journalism stuff on top of my day job in research computing for a famous med school)
i had met lots of billionaires, and people… and i got to see the real person not the person that we portrayed them as, and was part of the image machine… i learned an aweful lot…
Salmon Rushdie had a very crappy personality, his ex wife was a wonderful person… clinton family were money grubbing crazed narcisists. bloomberg couldnt care less bout other people… Hearsts (children of patty) were quite nice to hang out with…
Karmen Cass, Heidi Klume, Seal, Noot Seer, and others were wonderful to work with, smart, beautiful, and ate like horses.. not starved themselves. I liked the Hiltons a lot, nikki went out of her way to be nice, and that was before i knew who she was!!
i think i would say the same if i wasnt a bit for trump, because the point in any real dialogue is to work the facts, not work the lies into facts… ie. its part of winning fair and square, and these idjits dont get that the more they make him the dog piled underdog, the more the publid in the USA will want him.
i can rack off tons of stuff on every candidate, and rarely meet anyone who can do similar… when i do, we both have a great conversation as we realize that lying and fighting when we could talk will not much make a difference given our votes together represent only 2/300,000,000th of the whole
My family coming from latvia and having lived under stalin twice and hitler once and having mostly been exterminated in ways that these western dolts have no idea even happened, also informs me a lot. after all, how many leftists yelling at me actually have read Marx Das Kapitol and realized its a crock of crap? (i can even quote some famous soviets who said the same thing!!!)… then there is gramscis 9 prison volumes, stalins works, and the works of lenin…
i have read that all before i was 14 and went to bronx science, along with hayeck, and balthesar gracien, tolstoy, the classic cannon, and so many i cant mention
Its VERY sad that we want to elect ecnomic illiterates with soviet ideas of businerss and maoist ideas of organization, with hitler propaganda and his class hate… (which i dont say race hate, as racism was coined by trotsky in the history of the soviet revolution 1935, and was referring to people who did not want to lose their culture, and has nothing to do with skin color)
yeah… i am very well educated and can usually go toe to toe with all these people… i would bet that ann likes sanger and abortion, but knows nothing about her publishing ernst rudins work (father of the holocaust), or that engels called for the holocaust, or that hitler was fulfilling the answer to marx jewish question.
or that feminist roots of the modern wacko kind has its roots among the sex communes of moses harmon, and his famous daughter lillian, or the rampant sexuality of it was not the originators purpose, but was what it became after the soviets discovered, thanks to kolontai, that it destroyed the population and exterminated them
to wit the professional politicians importing foreigners to make up for the 75 million people exterminated before birth, and so the ladies being so dumb would figure out they been self exterminating, which is more efficient than even hitler hoped for.
oh, and eveyr point i make can be backed up since my career is working with empiricists… who want all manner of such connectoin. 🙂
What we’ve got are TWO Hard-Core Liberals:
Hillary Clinton is a Hard-Core Liberal. http://www.ontheissues.org/Hillary_Clinton.htm
And
Bernie Sanders is a Hard-Core Liberal.
http://www.ontheissues.org/Bernie_Sanders.htm
Now, are we going to give moderates someplace to go as alternatives, or not?
Here are our three choices:
Ted Cruz is a Hard-Core Conservative.
http://www.ontheissues.org/Ted_Cruz.htm
John Kasich is a Libertarian-Leaning Conservative.
http://www.ontheissues.org/John_Kasich.htm
And
Donald Trump is a Moderate Conservative.
http://www.ontheissues.org/Donald_Trump.htm
So, who is most likely to garner votes from across the center of the political spectrum?
Not Hillary.
Not Bernie.
Not Cruz.
Only Kasich or Trump.
And Kasich is mathematically eliminated from getting the delegates necessary to win before the RNC Convention.
Only Trump can do that.
The wave he would generate from that, the POPULAR wave would be momentous.
No one else can do that.
So, ideologists, do you really want to lose for your ideals?
There are MORE ideologues on the Left than on the Right.
Always have been.
@kitt:
@mike191: Cruz SoCal rallies sold out before 9 AM. Larger capacity facilities arranged and EventBrite RSVP system is back up for both
He is Packing the houses in NY as well his campaign should start arranging larger capacity venues in NY, but who knew.
Mr. Trump will carry Erie County, N.Y. in a massive plurality via support by a local Congressman, Mr. Collins and the ground game carried out by Mr. Carl Paladino, who carried Western, N.Y. vs. Mr. Andrew “…it only takes one bullet to kill a deer…”
Enjoy reading you’re posts.
@mike191:MMMmmm venison Correct and they are delicious no artificial growth hormones, gluten free, low fat, cage free
That just cracks me up. Calling for Trump to get out of the race when we have people such as Obama in the White House and Hillary and Bernie running for the office. Yep, those are the voices of moderation and the ‘true leaders’ that we need running the country. At least Trump has proven he can run a business and make a huge profit. All the others have proven is that they can lie, steal, cheat, destroy the country, get Ambassadors killed for no reason.
I don’t know who Ann E Moss is, but she clearly hasn’t put any thought (serious or not) into what she said.
@Artfldgr: What was the point in that long diatribe?
My point is that your first instinct was to hurl childish insults at those of whom you disagree, just as Trump has the tendency to do.
For once you have sunk to gutter level in rhetoric is it hard claw you way back to respectability no matter how many quotes or other points you want to make.
In the future you should try to stay on an adult level of discourse and try to argue on that basis.
@Redteam: Then how do you explain Trump’s bankruptcy’s and charges of fraud?
Actually of the last 11, he has won 8 while Cruz has won 3, (only 2 in a row)
oh, so you do concede he is still winning.
And yet he is still far in the lead, showing that you are off on a tangent that you can’t recover from. You seem to be trying to explain why someone is so far behind that they can’t possibly catch up, but here you are talking about the man in the lead. I’d suggest you have some deficiencies in math abilities.
Soooo unlike the Berniefins and Hillaryfins that immediately point out when their candidate goofs and proudly announce that they are ‘abandoning’ the idiots. Yep, happening all around, everyone dumps their candidates when they ‘mis speak’. Get real.
Let me help you out with that: Side note: Shouldn’t “Dimocrats” who support Hillary and Bernie be abjectly horrified by all of his antics over the past few weeks? And yet they are not…… makes you contemplate if they are truly “Dimocrats”? There, and you’re welcome.
Yep, they’re falling all over themselves promoting Trump. Ask Chris Matthews doesn’t he just love Trump.
Ann, I hope you don’t plan on earning a living as a writer.
@kitt:
Kitt don’t know where you got that number. I never saw Trump projected to win in Wisconsin. The closest I ever saw a poll was him losing by 6. Wisconsin has always been a liberal state, probably always will be. Wouldn’t want to predict a Cruz victory in NY would you?
Funniest Gaff from the left Bernie says to his followers he will bring gay marriage rights to all 50 states, I can say back to the home Bernie there is a rousing Bingo game where everyone wins.
Bernie Sanders Takes Wisconsin Democratic Contest | Advocate.com

@Redteam: Wisc liberal then splain Walker and a republican majority state reps. Milwaukee City not suburbs and Madison area I agree. After years of being Blue(it made us sad) it is a redish purple state.

There were others not as good as Marquettes.
Melba Boffin,
you really need to read history other than the last edition of the slime. the liberals take blame for noting. the Severn-time tested responses calculated to avoid blame in descending order are:
some one else did it?
who me?
i wasn’t there.
i didn’t do it
nobody saw me do it
you can’t prove a ting
that’s my story, and I’m sticking to it.
@Melba Boffin:
GET IT STRAIGHT, I AM A REPUBLICAN, CONSERVATIVE AND SO ARE ALL MY FRIENDS AND NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM OPPOSE TRUMP. DID YOU GET THAT? Other than on this blog, I know of no one that opposes Trump.
@Melba Boffin: My point is that your first instinct was to hurl childish insults at those of whom you disagree, just as Trump has the tendency to do.
Huh? i work in a college among people woh think che was a nice guy, stalin has a bad rep with mostly lies about him, and more. [oh, and its a medical school]
most people Dont know history, and i answered your question as to what influenced me was personal association…
if you want to act like a wackjob, go ahead, be my guest. but your comprehension sucks…
remember, we live in a society where many people think sherlock holmes is real, churchill was a literary figure, the years between columbus and america erased, movies depict vikings stealing native americans in galleons, people and dinosaurs existed together, white men invented slavery, and on and on..
so give me a break… i didnt call anyone names and i pointed out the author doesnt know the history of the republic they wrote for… i even used gender neutral pronouns.
sheesh…
i said people dont know history. you think if they knew what the soviet union and such was really like they would be protesting to have that?
what childish insult did i put out? that our school system has failed the students?
@Melba Boffin: Trump has never declared personal bankruptcy.
I don’t know. With pretty much every politician, every talking head, every beltway crony and every blogger hating on the man, I’m beginning to think that maybe he’s really got something there. I’d like to see him President if for no other reason than how many people have threatened…. I mean promised to leave the country if he gets elected
@Melba Boffin: Then how do you explain Trump’s bankruptcy’s and charges of fraud?
the bankruptcy was chapter 11… not chapter 13, this is COMMON and its for restructuring…
and last i heard fraud was illegal, and actionable not only in criminal court but also in civil court after the fact.
Accusations do not equal guilt… remember, this is still the USA and its innocent until proven guilty…
but i see your projecting, once you knew that another was against your desire, you attacked and said bs..
Chapter 11 Business Bankruptcy is a legal process by which a business may declare bankruptcy but continue to operate under the direction of a court-appointed trustee. This process is called “reorganization,” because the trustee reorganizes the business to be more efficient and to be able to pay the creditors of the business. It’s kind of like getting a “jump start” for your business, to bring new life into it.
the only people that confuse this with chapter 13, are business illiterates…
i would say that one ignorant person coming up with an idea that other ignorant people think is right, is not a good thing
the odd thing is that you side with people that dont restructure, but instead get the government to give them money… and for some reason, your point implies your for such things, after all, cruz has neils bush… silverado… 1.5 billion taxes… not their own money…
Six Flags did a restructuring
United Airlines, Fortunoff, etc
did you know that The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company filed this year? did you know that that is A&P? and it was founded in 1859?
you proved my point as to ignorants arguing stupid…
Thomas Jefferson was bankrupt… duh
Abraham Lincoln decided to buy a general store in New Salem, Ill, with a business partner. They purchased the store – and all of its contents – on credit. Despite the booming economy of the time, the business could not turn a profit, and they ended up in debt. Honest Abe filed for bankruptcy after his business partner died, and it took him more than 20 years to pay off the debt. In 1835, when Lincoln was a state legislator, he introduced a bill that would provide debt relief for debtors. The bill did not pass.
William McKinley
When William McKinley was governor of Ohio, he lent a friend money for his business. When said business failed, the bank came after McKinley for the debt. He almost left politics completely in order to return to law practice to pay off the debt. Three years later, McKinley became the 25th president of the United States
George McGovern
He started a hotel called the Stratford Inn. Yet, in 1991, McGovern’s hotel was forced to file Chapter 11. After the bankruptcy, McGovern noted in a Congressional record that knowing what American business owners face when in debt would have made him a better politician.
Former Maryland Congressman Tom McMillen
Former Louisiana Representative William Jefferson filed for Chapter 7
Representative Ruben Hinojosa of Texas declared bankruptcy after a loan to a family business went bad
Former Illinois State Assemblyman Ron Stephens resigned from the legislature in 2011 after serving 27 years in the House of Representatives. Three months after his resignation, he sought protection under Chapter 13 bankruptcy law. Stephens’ bankruptcy petition noted $615,000 in debt, including $482,000 owed on his Greenville, Ill., home.
so, we have a few presidents, some senators, etc
how is the bankruptcy a smear if jefferson, and lincoln did similar
and unlike stephens, they were chapter 11, not 13… which is total bankruptcy
now, let me know you knew all that and your bankruptcy smear was a joke and your not ignorant of history.
you started this… remember that…
and i am proving my point was not an insult but a statment of fact.
@Redteam:
Actually that’s 4 in a row, but who’s counting…. oh right – you are.
That’s NOT was said – his appeal in the beginning was that he was winning, that is not so much the case as of late.
Are you denying the man’s very high Unfavorability?
Are you denying how free media they are providing?
@MOS 8541: Blame shifting such as the statement from Team Trump after the WI loss?
@Redteam: Has his organization had bankruptcies?
Did you know Abraham Lincoln filed bankruptcy more than once?
bankruptcy relief has a long history dating as far back as the Bible. In Deut. 15 1-2 the Bible itself provides for the periodic release from debts: ” At the end of every seven years thou shalt make a release. And this is the manner of release: every creditor shall release that which he has lent unto his neighbor and his brother; because the Lord’s release hath been proclaimed.” [i didnt know this till i looked the abraham thing figuring our historical ignorants who are picking things to dislike someone would pick on this point]
what a bankruptcy attorney has on their site:
it is creditors who promote the moral stigma of bankruptcy and make consumers feel terrible because they can no longer afford to pay their bills. And why not? Creditors have everything to gain by shaming, cajoling, browbeating and intimidating consumers into not filing bankruptcy. Creditors don’t tell consumers their legal options under the law because those options are not profitable to the creditor. Don’t expect creditors to tell you the truth about your legal rights in relation to your debt. Expect them to manipulate you into giving them all your money.
[so all your doing is passing along a stigma… nice work]
Many of America’s political, business and entertainment leaders have gotten a fresh start by filing bankruptcy. For example, did you know Thomas Jefferson (our 3rd President) and Abraham Lincoln (our 16th President) both filed bankruptcy several times? (And, they are not the only US Presidents who have done so.) In addition, Walt Disney, Henry Ford, Donald Trump and P.T. Barnum also exercised their legal rights and filed for bankruptcy when their financial situations called for it.
walt disney? ford? trump? barnum? lincoln? jefferson? mcgovern?
meanwhile, socialists have bankrupted NATIONS…
want to see pictures of people waiting on line in venezuela as if its 1945 Soviet russia under Stalin? did you see the cars in cuba? how about that space picture of north korea?
by the way, post patriarchy, women are now the number one group filing bankruptcy!!
Bankruptcy filings hit an all-time high in 2005, when more than 2 million cases were started. In that year, one out of every 55 households filed for bankruptcy. The following year, bankruptcy filings dipped to about 600,000, the lowest point in 20 years. The vast majority of bankruptcies are now filed by consumers and not by businesses. In 1980, businesses accounted for 13 percent of bankruptcies. Today, they account for about 3 percent.
the states with the highest bankruptcy rate
California (240,151)
Florida (94,815)
Georgia (73,852)
Illinois (73,210)
Ohio (58,754)
so keep crowing about bankruptcy, the number of people who have had to claim such in the general population over the past 30 or so years is a HUGE voting block, no?
Today, the average filer is older and married, has a high school education and makes less than $30,000 a year.
so whats your next rotten egg to throw?
or have you yet realized with people all over going through the past 40 years of Trumps life, and the worst they found is that he divorced, has a big mouth, filed chapter 11, was never prosecuted or taken to court for fraud (and i will give you a yet), pays women well, promotes lots of them, runs businesses in dozens of countries not just USA, his ex wife likes him, his kids like him, his current wife talks the world about him, he doesnt drink, he doesnt smoke, and is pretty much self made family man who is the third generation of a poor german lad named trumpf that came to america at the age of 16 with nothing.
you want to know how many people come to america with nothing to buld fortunes and families? my family survived stalin and hitler, and came here.. my wifes family is from china, they avoided the death traps there too… by living in indonesia.
your turn… but please come up with something more meaninful that exceeds past presidents or is worse than history shows.
@Artfldgr:
Do you always Contradict yourself like that? Or is it the case where you don’t even consider that calling people names?
You should consider trying to be more self aware of your own actions.
@Melba Boffin: his appeal in the beginning was that he was winning, that is not so much the case as of late.
Are you denying the man’s very high Unfavorability?
well, funny, for a man hated so much he has many many more delegates… in fact, if 49 delegates go to him and kasic, cruz is out of the race like special K
by the way, they did the same thing to reagan, who had almost the same campaign slogan, was also a tv star (whose costar was a chimpanzee), and was roundly attacked, yet led the us to the largest economic growth in human history of any nation.. which your sitting in front of machines and such that stem from that success…
not to mention that 2 weeks before the election all the polls had jimmy carter winning, then the election and it was a freaking landslide… so how did jummy go from a 47 over reagans 39, and ended up losing so bad he conceded the presidency before the polls closed?
again, you should know your history
and if you come to a battle of wits and knowlege, please load the weapon…
Are you denying how free media they are providing?
are you insane? its all BAD… funny names, calling him the antichrist, cartoon clown heads, reporting on less than 10 bad items in 40 years, and nothing like the lefts boondoggles, and nothing that costed anyone but he and his investors… no rapes, no bathroom exploits, pays women better than clinton, but they dont point that out. its all negative press.
they give him so much air time cause they hate him!!!
but the problem is that he has what evry leftist socialist hates
he is pretty clean for a man with a billion dollars and a 50 year history… very clean… they have to make issues out of nothings, like a bankruptcy restructuring of his own money, ignore 1.5 silverado… ignore the crack cocaine epidemic of elliot abrams during reagan and how he works for Cruz, and more.
your nuts…
ignorant too…
@Redteam: What does that prove – are you denying all the Conservatives who oppose Trump?
Why did you assume that those who oppose Trump are on the left?
@Artfldgr: Supposedly Trump is a good businessman – those bankruptcies belay that contention
@Artfldgr: So much for ‘i didnt call anyone names’
Try answering for the facts that were presented.
Yes, time for the man holding the considerable lead to exit so the GOPe can set up another patsy for the dems to knock over.
This is becoming as glaringly apparent as professoinal wrestling, the GOPe wants to keep democrats in the White House so they can continue mock blaming them for advancing their shared agenda.
Trump is the ONLY threat to that.
@Melba Boffin:
So as i said your a wack job, as you did not answer any of the questions, but threw them back… your not interested in anything but trolling. i answered your questions with facts, and you have absolutely nothing to say.
the funniest thing about you is that you somehow think annoying people for nothing is a good way to change their minds, but you barely like yourself so your capacity for liking others doesnt really exist. certainly that is clear from your lack of respect, bs games, and so on.
i stand by my description, wack job, which is not an insult…
its only an insult if you were not one and i called you that…
@Melba Boffin: Supposedly Trump is a good businessman – those bankruptcies belay that contention
You confuse or conflate good, with perfect…
you realize he has over 500 subsidiaries of his company, and your crowing about a bankruptcy caused by a downturn in economy not mismanagement?
my description of you is valid, ignorant wack job
trump has had four bankruptcies:
Trump’s four bankruptcies were Chapter 11 reorganizations (named for its location in federal bankruptcy code), which are designed to restructure businesses without shutting them down completely. The purpose is to “save” the business, as opposed to other forms of bankruptcy which would liquidate the company, said Michael Venditto, a partner at the ReedSmith law firm who has extensive experience with Chapter 11.
the more businesses you do, especially when leveraged, the more risk you take that events will come up that change the plans for you. there is no way to know these things before hand, for if you did, you would not have taken on the risk.
it would be the same as faulting people for losing their homes in 2009, because when they bought their homes in 2000 they did not see the dems race politics on banks and clintons change to law years after they purchased would change the financial landscape.
again, ignorant wack job would think this matters a lot by first pretending it does, and be incredulous that we dont agree with the wack job, and then ignoring in ignrance or lying by omission all the other things he has done that has increased his wealth and scope.
this would be like reducing women to wet holes…
not nice, but just enough truth… right?
and completely ignores their being persons
but since you give me a opportunity with each question to answer with real information, and argumetn, go ahead, keep doing the parroting bit with the wack job incredulity, it gives me a chance to teach people. and if you think your bs convinces anyone compared to the base of stuff i am bringing forward, then your nutters
Bankruptcy 1: The Trump Taj Mahal, 1991
Trump funded the taj mahal with his own money, no investors, and took 1 billion of it. this is a lot better than the professional politician neilds whose silverado failed, and criminally so, he paid 50k to avoid jail, and your and my tax money went to bail out the rest… AFTER he made his partners wealthy with the lost money…
trump lost 900 million of his own money, no tax money. he got a restructuring, sold his yacht and half interest in it… unlike the green solar companies, or elon musk, or the CFL lights, he did not build anything with your tax money that failed. trump also sold his airline… ie. he had to sell off good assets which were viable and making money to pay off for his own stuff. if he did not have those assets to sell off, he could not do chapter 11. you want to go over the democrat boondoggles, like the war on poverty that cost trillions and did what? the war on drugs that cost trillions, and didnt work?
Bankruptcy 2: Trump Plaza Hotel, 1992
Trump acquired the Plaza Hotel in New York for $390 million in 1988. yet again, he had assets of his own to cover the debt, sold half, and the plaza to this day is going bankrupt without him, and the chinese communists want to buy it like the did the waldorf… again, none of your or my money… and he had lots of successful assets to pay for it
Bankruptcy 3: Trump Hotels and Casinos Resorts, 2004
this was also part of the first bankruptcy, he didnt own it all and was only the largest share holder.. he reduced his share from 47% to 27% and it was restructured
Bankruptcy 4: Trump Entertainment Resorts, 2009
again, this was related to number 1 and number 3… after the restructuring, and all that, the real estate bubble the dems created with their race games at banks and such slammed how much of the economy? you really want to say that all those investors, and such are fools like trump? think of how many people were in the same boat, a majority of the american public… you hit trump for that you hit them, no?
in NONE of these cases did he get any favors from politicos, bail outs, funding, etc… it was all his own money and his own properties, and they were covered by a huge amount of other viable assets.
to quote the bankruptcy lawyer:
Trump’s four bankruptcies all happened within the past 25 years. That’s a lot, said Stephen Lubben, a leading expert in corporate finance and professor at Seton Hall School of Law. But to be fair, the gaming industry has been struggling the past few years, he added, and three out of four of Trump’s bankruptcies were tied to casinos.
Casinos are doing badly now.. why? cause every leftist politician from coast to coast had given up on the idea that its immoral and have wanted to prey on the public for taxes. previously, there were only two areas in the US you could gamble, and that was las vegas and atlantic city… but then in the 1990s, suddenly tons of indian reservations decided to build casinos, and lots of other places between the two coasts did as well, and so, the number of people going dropped off.
sadly, your point applies more to the owners of the borgata than they do trump, who built his stuff before this expansion, while the borgata came after it and built anyway. the borgata business deal was so bad that its failure took out not only 4 other casinos, but all of atlantic city is now bankrupt
oh, and atlantic city is run by which party? do you want to go over the list of cities going bankrupt and which party runs them and has run them for ages? you think bankruptcy is bad, what about municipal bankruptcies?
these are not bankrupt like companies, these are bankruptices cause of complete mismanagement, driving out the base and more…
Detroit.. democrat strong hold one of the five biggest municipal bankrupties in US history, and all on the publics dime, and we, meaning you and i will have to bail it out
Jefferson county alabama, another democrat stronghold… bankrupt
orange county california, another democrat base
stockton california, and san bernadino
ALL the largest municipal bankrupties are democrat based.
oh, and who ran up the finances of the US more than all prior presidents combined since the countries founding?
It’s not fair to put all the blame on Trump for the four bankruptcies because he’s acting as any investor would. Investors often own many non-integrated companies, which they fund by taking on debt, and some of them inevitably file for bankruptcy, said Adam Levitin, a law professor at Georgetown University.“The only difference is that Trump puts his name on his companies, which means people associate them with him, but he’s not at all the leader in the bankruptcy space,” Levitan said. “These bankruptcies were not defining moments for Trump and shouldn’t color our view of him.”
but now, since your so keen on his failures, lets look at his successes…
despite those 4 things in the past 25 years, or rather if you look at his whole career, the past 45 years
some success stories..
Grand Hyatt Hotel
In a deal that helped establish his reputation, Trump and the Hyatt Corporation partnered in 1976 to buy the Commodore Hotel, now known as the Grand Hyatt Hotel. At the time, it was a risky venture with New York City at a low point and much of the area around the hotel in disrepair. Trump later sold his half share in the property to Hyatt in 1996 for $142 million
New York City’s Wollman Rink:
The developer took over the project in 1986 after the city’s six-year, $12 million effort to renovate the Central Park rink had not gotten the job done… yes, the democrats in ny, the profesisional multigenerational politicians spent money at a time when 12 million was a lot… and got nowhere. He brought the project in under budget and ahead of schedule. Trump’s company even made “a profit of about $500,000 on $1.5 million in receipts” in its first six months since reopening, The New York Times reported in 1987. The profit was donated to charity.
[this is one reason why new yorkers like him. even i have skated there, sat in the summer and had a hot dog and soda there, its one of the gems of the park and city to this day]
Trump Tower
built again in a very risky period and thought to be a failure, but no, he did it. Trump Tower has been a massive success. The building established the now-iconic glass and metal look that the billionaire developer has made his signature. It also helped him create the mix of multimillion-dollar residences mixed with high-end retail and fine dining that Trump uses at many of his properties.
reading the motly fool they claim its very hard to know how much money he makes (after all, do you know what the square foot rent for commercial space is there?)… In his 1987 book Art of the Deal, Trump claimed to have made $240 million just from sales of apartments in the property, and additional millions from retail and restaurant rent.
not only did he make that quarter billion, but he also sells trump water there and the other stuff that you think are fialures… they arent, they are marketing successes for all his businesses, not for the general public around the world
but then again, what about mar a lago? you see, he bought that, and fixed it up.. and then, when the councils said no blaks no jews… he fought them in court and won, and now, blacks and jews can go to his and other locatoins in that wealthy area of democrats who hate jews and blacks… (or do you not know what or whom was like that in the south? remember, it was the southern dems who wanted slavery, creates the stars and bars, wanted to succeed from the union, and created the kkk and the knights of the white camelia and most of the bad race stuff of the south!!!) . you did know his daugher is a practicing jew who converted when she married? yes?
of the 515 companies he has and is running 268 have his name on them..
you can harp on four restructuring issues, but what about these?

4 bankruptcy restructurings out of over 500 companies?
like most on the left with this issue, harping on 4/516 of his empire is a wack job nut case idea.. its 0.77% of the whole…
Did Don lie about how much money was raised for the Vets the night he dodged a Debate if no, wheres the Money. Did Donald twice before dump the Republican Party changing political affiliation 5 times since the late 80s. What will happen to the lawsuits for faux university. IRS said its ok to release taxes. He says he will pay off the national debt 19T in 8 years, what is the plan for that. One of his crew said he was going to sell off all fed government assets, would that include Yellowstone? He said Walker should have raised taxes, I guess he would not feel bad about raising everyones taxes.
@Artfldgr:
Try this one:
You want more?
Lobbing pejoratives at people who disagree with you may be the winning ticket in your mind, but not in the minds of most.
@Melba Boffin:33 Geez,
March 15 Trump 4 Cruz 0
Mar 22 Trump 1 Cruz 1
Apr 5 Cruz 1
Looks like out off last 7 it’s Trump 5 Cruz 2…. But who’s counting? Want to try again?
Business bankruptcy’s are a part of doing business. It makes it so people can attempt to start businesses without putting their personal livelihood’s in jeopardy. Very common, as pointed out by Artfldgr
Let me see. a vote for is favorable. based on that, I’d say Trump has had the most votes of any candidate, so I’d say that means more people prefer him over any other candidate, since no other candidate has more votes.
@Melba Boffin: 39
because most of them are for Bernie and Hillary. Surly you concede that they are slanted left.
@kitt:
kitt, you need to stop believing the liberal press. When was that money raised that you’re referring to? February. How long does the normal charity go before full distribution of the money raised? More than a month and a half. Do you hold him responsible to ensure that the people that he donates to is legitimate? Or should he just shovel it out to anyone that asks? Maybe a charity should be just a little more responsible. You think the Red Cross has already distributed all the money raised in the month of February?
@retire05: Melba certainly has some credibility issues.
