Both Trump and Carson have threatened to bolt the Republican Party and mount independent campaigns if the party establishment intervenes against them in the presidential campaign. Earlier this week, Trump touted a poll showing that 68 percent of his supporters would follow him out of the Republican Party if he decided to run as an independent.
If Trump is not what the Republican Party is about, then Republicans should be saying, publicly rather than in the backrooms of swank DC restaurants, that they do not want him as their party's nominee. And that, if Trump is nominated, they will not back him. Yes, Trump will threaten to run as an independent. But that threat has always existed, and it will always exist unless the party nominates Trump.
The philosophical underpinning of the Republican Party since Richard Nixon has been an affinity for fascism for sake of power, Aryan privilege and greed.
Donald Trump, GOP frontrunner and self-styled anti-establishment candidate, knows how to entertain.
He also understands that he has built a political brand which garners momentum from the very type of controversy that would sink any other candidate in the field.
When you put those two things together, you have a recipe for bombastic rhetoric designed to hold the electorate in a perpetual state of shock and embed a tiny voice that says “you know, maybe he’s right” in the back of voters’ collective mind.
Statistics reveal that mass murders occur every day in the US, and "terrorism" deaths are a minuscule fraction of deaths compared to gun deaths, the real "terrorism" is the pornography of NRA and GOP shielding these facts for profits, and the media ignoring the connection of profits to gun deaths.
