Donald and the 7 Dwarfs

Some Republicans are complaining about Trump, because he is making them look bad. Too many of them are doing the “straight-jacket dance”, so they don’t cut loose on the blitzkrieg of abuse we’ve suffered under Obama. They are too timid and afraid to lose voters or get attacked. Trump’s approach and issues are resonating with the voters.  Months ago, I announced that the candidate who tells the truth will win. Trump is in the lead on this score.

Oddly enough, the best of the other Republicans are welcoming Trump to the race.  Ted Cruz announced that he will not attack fellow Republican contenders and you don’t hear Rand Paul complaining about Trump. Cruz and Paul have the highest conservative scores, are the only presidential candidates from Congress who voted NO on the TPA. They remain on my list of good guys.

Good strategic planning requires a thorough recitation of the current state of things before you address the positive moves required to get us out of this mess.  Those candidates who don’t address the current mess thoroughly now are losing their audiences.  Sure, to win, you must present a positive direction, but it isn’t time for that right now. The winner will need to address our sovereign insolvency and how to pay off our debts.

I think Trump is clearing the brush and blazing a path for these guys to encourage them to attack the real issues.  Trump is attacking issues head-on, in the right order and is taking no prisoners. I think Trump’s approach should encourage the other candidates to attack issues more bluntly. Trump has shown that he will counter-attack RINOs like McCain.

Our Republican candidates need to recite the litany of fiscal black holes in the current administration, the massive agencies who are doing harm and doing nothing we actually need. They need to address the fact that we CAN repay our government debt, if we stop spending on things that are harmful and unnecessary and we must do this now. 

They need to admit that finding $1 trillion in spending cuts isn’t really that hard if they attack unconstitutional federal activities and the feckless actions and incorrect conclusions the Obama administration always makes. This administration is spending double to screw up everything they touch. They still defend the global warming myth and the carbon capture scam and very few voters agree that these issues are real.  

Candidates need to make the case for cutting corporate taxes, suspending all immigration and defunding rogue agency job-killing programs to increase private sector jobs.

Candidates need to attack our Greek-like, socialist fiscal suicide track. They need to stress the necessity to get government out of the way to increase production of US goods for US consumption and export like oil and natural gas. They need to point out that socialism is unsustainable, global warming is a hoax and the UN is a threat to our sovereignty.

Candidates need to identify actions needed to return jobs before we can cut welfare. Their plan needs to be believable.

This is the largest Republican group we’ve had and they line up by group to ensure that their particular brand of Republicanism makes it to the finish line. There are several left-wing RINOs, who hope to look enough like Democrats to win.  We have a group of what used to be Republicans in the middle, who have to sort themselves out.  And, we have conservatives. We have proof from their votes in the Senate that Rand Paul and Ted Cruz are proven conservatives with very high legislative scores. We believe that Carson, Walker and Huckabee are conservatives. We believe Trump is a conservative because of his positions on the issues.
