The Republican Party is seeing record voter turnout- and
excellent ratings for its televised debates. People are engaged and enervated.
Not one, but two of its candidates could conceivably win the general election
this fall and become president. Halcyon days, indeed, right?
No. It is angry and scared about this. It
despises both of its front-runners.
And, by extension, the will of the people. Amazing.
The
Party will apparently go to any
length to torpedo Donald Trump’s bid to become the nominee. This is unprecedented,
but somewhat understandable, given Trump’s past and persona. What is truly incomprehensible is that the
powers-that-be atop the Party’s hierarchy are also loath to help its obvious
next-best-hope- and solution-in-waiting- Ted Cruz. These stuffy would-be
puppeteers-cum-magicians are hoping to
make both Trump and Cruz disappear while conjuring up a viable “moderate” (read
liberal) nominee out of thin air.
Note to
the idiots that comprise the establishment of the G.O.P.: there is no such candidate. Any liberal
Republican will be defeated by Hillary Clinton. Roughly one-third of the
country will vote for a liberal Democrat (read Democrat) whether or not they are a liar, hypocrite, criminal or
serial child-molester who worships the anti-Christ. They just want free stuff.
They are not going be thrust into the throes of ecstasy by someone who’s almost- but not quite- as liberal… with an ‘R’ by their name. The very reason that
the messages of Trump and Cruz are resonating with so many Americans is that
they too want to stop the country’s rapid slide into socialism and
class-warfare. They are repulsed by what has happened over the past seven-plus
years and want to feel that their voices are finally being heard, before it’s
too late. This is an enormous opportunity for the G.O.P. Trump is not a real
conservative who believes as his supporters do. (He is a charlatan). Cruz
is…and does. It would be an ironic and unforgivable act if the Republican Party
were simply to ignore the will of the people.
It is likely,
with the ongoing demographic changes, that this is the Republican’s last chance
at presidential victory…unless it stands for principle and respects the will of
its voters. It certainly is the last chance for the U.S. to salvage any part of
its free-market, Constitutionally-protected natural rights heritage.
That
the Republicans are likely about to make this mind-boggling, historic, tragic
mistake proves that the party is already gone.
The
U.S. will follow close behind.
*************************
(Some
Republican establishment types have actually referred to Cruz as “the wacko
bird constitutionalist.” When the elites of even the Republican Party believe
you are a nut case if you firmly believe in the Constitution of the United
States of America, the writing is on
the wall).
