So, as the Republican Presidential Pageant Primary moves in to its last six weeks, we are seeing the ultimate illustration of the phenomena known as “Trump Derangement Syndrome”. I have to admit that in my whole life I have never seen a Presidential Pageant with so many twist and turns, all caused by a single candidate. But what was announced on Sunday night just goes “over the top” of all of the craziness we’ve seen up until today.
So, what happened on Sunday night? The last two establishment GOP politician candidates, Ohio Governor John Kasich and Texas Senator Rafael Edward Cruz, announced they are teaming up and splitting up the remaining primaries specifically for the purpose of attempting to stop Mr. Donald J Trump from gathering the 1237 Delegates necessary to assure that Mr. Trump wins the nomination on the 1st ballot at the Convention in Cleveland in July. So I guess the whole charade of Sen. Cruz being the “outsider” or “insurgent” candidate is now totally exposed?
Now, maybe I missed something, but wasn’t it just a couple of weeks ago that Sen. Cruz was calling on Gov. Kasich to get out of the race since he has NO “mathematical path” to the nomination? Yes, I’m certain he was. But now that Sen. Cruz ALSO has NO “mathematical path” to the nomination, he is going to team up with the other NO “mathematical path” candidate left in the race to try and stop the ONLY candidate who has a “mathematical path” to the nomination from reaching the majority before the Convention? Just to thwart the will of the Voters? You know, you just can’t make this stuff up. Am I the only person who sees this as both Gov. Kasich and Sen. Cruz having just committed national politics suicide?
Does the desperation of this whole “strategy” pass the smell test with anybody? Think about it, we now have these two Party establishment candidates not whispering, but SCREAMING out loud, that you common Citizens, who have shown up in primary after primary, and caucus after caucus, are just too damned stupid to know what’s good for you? How can We The People see this as anything different than that? And to do it so blatantly “in your face” should make ALL of US furious. I guess that what Mr. Trump has been saying about how corrupt the Party operations are has now been confirmed.
So, what does anybody expect to see happen from here? Well, the two establishment candidates have been talking the talk all along that Mr. Trump can’t get over 50%. I personally think that they have just assured that Mr. Trump will now exceed 50% in each of the remaining primaries. Now, why would I say this? Because I think that my fellow common Citizens, those who these two are telling that they are too stupid to do the right thing, are going to show up in even larger numbers than they have to this point. And do the right thing! Which will be, in their minds, to vote for Mr. Trump.
For this whole campaign, Mr. Trump has been trying to tell US that the system was rigged. We have been told at every turn in this campaign, every time Mr. Trump has dared to tell the truth, we’ve been told, “That’s it, and he’s done”! But to the total amazement of the “political elites”, his poll numbers, and votes, have gone up. From the start when there were 17 candidates, till today when there are 3 left, all of the “experts” have told US that Mr. Trump is just one step away from being out of the race. Or they tell US, “He’s not really a serious candidate”. I guess that last night the “experts” realized Mr. Trump is a serious candidate. I believe this is “Game over.”
God Bless America! And America, Bless God Again!
