The Leaning Tower Of Trump

Unlike Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton has sacrificed. Like when she sacrificed Ambassador Stevens in Benghazi to help POTUS win the election ...Josh Earnst Tweet (parody)
-----

Not too long ago, I wrote a piece stating Trump can only take down Trump.  Since that time, his strategy has been defying many in the political class and those in the media.  After all, Hillary Clinton is more than just a flawed presidential candidate, she's also corrupt to the core. The evidence is now overwhelming.  But just as Trump's base gives him pass after pass, the same can be said for those supporting Clinton.  The big difference is that Clinton is a pathological liar.  Trump, on the other hand, makes offensive and stupid statements much too often.  His most recent tit-for-tat with the parents of one of our fallen warriors is certainly evidence of that conspicuous brainlessness. It's the first time any of his statements had legs when it comes to a media, a media that hovers over him like a crow ready to feed upon a decaying carcass.

And that's his problem (among several).  The more mistakes he makes like this one, the more the media and many dissatisfied Republicans will try to drum up support against him. We're witnessing that occurring already this week with more defections from Trump's camp. Some actually stated they will now support Clinton (one has to question whether they were Republicans in the first place. We do know some have been Republicans in name only). Nevertheless, the polls show he's taking some slight hits---his taking on the parents of the fallen warrior and Clinton's post-convention bounce probably account for those poll numbers (keep in mind---national polls are meaningless. It's all about electoral votes and it's more of a regional election. That's why states like Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida are so important).

Then there's another theory. Are the wounds inflicted by Trump---self-inflicted on purpose? Is he really serious about beating Hillary Clinton?  The more he trips over his own rhetoric, the more it appears he's not sincere about this campaign. At this point, I don't know but his actions raise my suspicions.

Last month, I suggested a  road-map for Trump to beat Hillary Clinton. It included, but was not limited to,  honing in on the failed economy (as last week's weak GDP proved),  focusing on Hillary Clinton placing our national security at risk (as reinforced by the Benghazi Report and Comey's report) and fixating on obliterating Islamists terrorism.

Long ago and often, I've said beating Hillary Clinton is like picking low-hanging fruit.  The problem with that metaphor is that the last two Republican presidential candidates faced the same----and lost.  Nevertheless,  Hillary Clinton is not only flawed, she corrupt and untrustworthy as most polls illustrate.

So my suggestion to Trump. If you're serious and sincere about beating Hillary Clinton---focus, focus, focus ---on her.  Don't waste your time with garbage---for the crows continue to hover.

Hillary Clinton Wants To Embrace Obamanomics: The Recovery Myth

If Hillary becomes president, the Oval Office can again display the sign: "The Buck Stops Here---before it's deposited." WH Press Secretary Tweet (parody)
-----

Two years ago, John Crudele of The NY Post  wrote: "The U.S. economy is a lot weaker than Washington has been pretending it is."  Not much has changed since he made that claim. The GDP numbers were released last week for the second quarter. The economy grew by a dismal 1.2%. Just as disturbing, the Obama administration might be the first administration never to have a GDP reach a growth rate of 3%---considered a relatively healthy economy.  To place this pathetic growth rate in perspective,  Ronald Reagan brought forth an annual growth rate of 3.5%.

And now Hillary Clinton wants to embrace this failed economy strategy.  Her plan? --

• To raise taxes on individual companies, stock trading, capital gains and companies that move their business overseas.
• She also plans on adding more payroll taxes as well as a tax on guns of at least 25%.

As she plans on doing that---she intends to INCREASE government spending (that's in the DNA of most democrats so it's no surprise).  As Lawrence Kudlow at Real Clear Politics noted: "Hillary is a combination of Barack Obama 3.0 and Bernie Sanders 2.0. This is not change." I might add if only Obama could reach a GDP growth rate of 2%.

Obamanomics has always been a threat to the growth of our economy.  The last 8 years of evidence of that. But what is utterly nefarious is the proclamation that emanates from inside the beltway that everything is fine when most Americas know that is not the case.

Hillary Clinton's first impulse is not only to reach for a lie (as she did again on Fox News Sunday when confronted by host Chris Wallace about the FBI findings---that she was "careless" and "reckless," she actually said: "That's not what I heard Director Comey say."), she actually manages to lie about lying.

Trump's certainly made some disturbing and stupid statements. Hillary, on the other hand, can't open her mouth without uttering bold-faced lies.

Media Presstitutes & Hillary Clinton Paving A Pathway Into Progressive Hell

Leftists very concerned Trump may be cozy with Russia had no problem with Obama telling Putin he'll be more flexible after the election...Razor's Tweet
----
Yesterday, Trump said: "Russia, if you are listening, I hope you are able to find the 30,000 e-mails that are missing."

Today, the media is running with that quote and their malfeasance is raising it's ugly head once again.  Many are accusing Trump of encouraging the stinking Russians to hack her server. That's not what he said.  Some actually accused Trump of espionage---at least the implication was there. But then again, this is the same media that portrayed Michelle Obama's speech to the DNC as "one for the ages." (CNN).

And then there was Mr. Obama who actually said Hillary Clinton is the most qualified EVER to run for president.  He said that with a straight face too. Yet what have we heard from most of the media: white noise. Or, as Josh Earnst (parody) Tweeted yesterday: "Summary of speech yesterday if anyone missed it: Everything I said about Hillary Clinton in 2008. Forget about that."  Obama's speech was proceeded by a speech by Bill Clinton. They used him as a character witness for his wife.  Can't make this stuff up. Or, as Michael Goodwin of The NY Post observed: "Two {days} at the convention was spent trying to humanize Hillary Clinton. After 25 years in public life, she feels the need to tell us she cares." He continued: "...they made her sound like Mother Teresa."

Of course, the DNC is also so concerned about our national security, not one word was said about terrorism on their fist day. Not one---of 61 speakers.  In fact, the mention of ISIS is conspicuous by its absence.  Mind you, Germany had 3 terrorist attacks since last week. More disturbing, the theme on Tuesday was pandering to the Black Lives Matter crowd.  This after we lost 8 police officers (Dallas and Baton Rouge) in the previous weeks.  And a story you know doubt missed.  Black Lives Matter leaders told white journalists they were not permitted to be in the front of their march.  They had to go to the rear. So much for integration.

Equally disturbing, there were no American flags at the convention hall. After that clusterfuck when viral, they found a few to place on the stage. Reports are they borrowed some from Philly's City Hall.

And if you don't believe all of this is crazy enough, I'll leave you with what Nancy Pelosi once said of Mr. Obama: "a leader that God has blessed us with." One fact is certain. If those supporting Hillary Clinton are also seeking salvation...be careful. Her pathway will lead the nation directly into progressive hell.

Congrats Dems For Nominating The First Female For POTUS Under FBI Criminal Investigation

Bernie Sanders (2 months ago): Hillary Clinton isn't qualified to be POTUS
Bernie Sanders (now): Hillary Clinton will make an excellent POTUS...Josh Earnst Tweet (parody)
----
Before I begin, hat-tip to Josh Earnst (above) for giving me the idea for this headline.

Well, it's done.  Hillary Clinton is the first corrupt, lying and incompetent female to be nominated by a major American political party for POTUS.  Quite an accomplishment (her only one).

A few reminders regarding the person the DNC just nominated: (some of my regular readers will recognize many of these but they are more timely and appropriate today):

• Hillary Clinton whose legacy is more stained than Monica's blue dress.
• Hillary who has more smoking guns than the gunfight at the OK Corral.
• Hillary, the first nominee for POTUS to be under investigation by the FBI for criminal behavior.
• Hillary, who WikiLeaks just reported her party made every effort to sabotage Bernie's campaign.
• Hillary, who the late, great William Safire called a "congenital liar."
• Hillary, who the FBI reported exhibited careless behavior with her e-mails and private server.
• Hillary, the first nominee for POTUS who most likely put our national security at risk (per Comey's report).
• Hillary, who pledged to destroy the coal industry.
• Hillary, whose entire legacy is more corrupt and wider than Kim Kardashian's ass.
• Hillary, who flipped and flopped on numerous issues including gay marriage, illegal immigration, free trade, and the Iraq War.
• Hillary, who bashes the 1% regularly and uses income inequality as an issue yet charged $325K per speech to banks and Wall Street firms.
• Hillary, whose first impulse is to ALWAYS reach for a lie and true is always the first casualty.
• Hillary and Benghazi (read the Benghazi Report)
• Hillary, the first female nominated for president who has a strange penchant for Mao type of pants suits.
• Hillary, who as former First Lady, former Senator representing NYS and then Sect. of State has virtually no accomplishments to speak about.
• Hillary, who has most of the main stream media in her back pocket.
• Hillary Clinton, the candidate for POTUS who supported and even supports most issues her constituents PRETEND to oppose.

Congratulation DNC for nominating the one candidate who regularly channels George Costanza.

Wikileaks Proves Media Only Pretends To Be Honest, Objective + Ethical

Let's have a good laugh. Some clowns in the media were publishing, "GOP accuses the media of bias" pieces, while emailing the DNC for approval...Josh Earnst  Tweet (parody)
-----

Well, well, well---it's refreshing to know that many of us accusing the media of bias have been right all along.  In fact, WikiLeaks released 20,000 DNC emails this week.  They show it's actually worse than most of us could imagine.  In short, the email dump revealed the following:

• Media outlets were contacted to slant their news to make Hillary Clinton look good.
• The emails show exchanges between DNC staff and staff at media outlets such as The  Washington Post, WSJ, MSNBC, CNN, POLITICO and a variety of Web sites.
• In some cases, meetings were held.
• They plotted against Bernie Sanders.
• Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Chair of DNC, actually told  one news agency to change their headline. They did.
• Another email showed DNC staff creating a fake Craigslist job  posting for women who wanted to apply at Trump's organization. Those applying would be required to lose weight and not have an issue with groping or kissing by their boss.

All of this and more comes on the heels of the media more often than not  encircling the wagons when it comes to bad news regarding the Clintons or other prominent democrats. Even more disturbing, it's the media that's perpetuated many of the lies associated with events in Ferguson and Islamist terrorism). It was the media that helped suppress the truth about Fast and Furious and Benghazi. In fact, it's MSNBC that's given a show to the likes of Al Sharpton.

The fact that unethical behavior permeates the media is not new. It's been known for decades but has come to light more often through social media. It appears "journalism" today takes only one political side and---as WikiLeaks has shown---is complicit in this deceit. It's no longer about reporting the truth. Rather, it's about misrepresentation and deception for political purposes.  In short, it's malfeasance of the highest order

Next Up! DNC Convention: A Progressive/Socialist Nirvana

Hillary will not decide who her VP pick will be until after all the unmarked envelopes filled with cash are collected...WH Press Secretary Tweet (parody)
-----

With the RNC Convention over (by the way, how about all that violence with open-carry gun owners in Cleveland?), it's time to move on to Philadelphia.  Philadelphia--- designated a sanctuary city by the new progressive mayor.  This mayor happens to be the knucklehead who proclaimed the last Philadelphia cop shot several times (he survived) by a scumbag yelling an Islamist slogan was not an Islamist attack.

So what can we expect from the Democrats?  I predict some, if not all, of the following:

• Che T shirts will be a hot item. They are going to love the Obama and Hillary bobble heads.
• Independence Hall will be renamed "Dependence Hall" for the duration of the convention.
• Their candidate will talk about economic inequality as she  continues to count the millions she and Bill accumulated from their speeches.  She'll also attack banks and Wall Street--the same institutions she charged $350k a pop for speeches.
• Police will be called racist as they spout false data regarding police shootings.
• The Constitution Center will be closed for 4 days.
• More benefits will be recommended for illegal immigrants as American citizens will be thrown to the curb again.
• Free Tuition for all!!!  But they won't explain how to pay for it (hint: American taxpayers).
• Guns will be bad. But trucks, bombs, knives, box cutters will still get a pass.
• There will be no anti-war protesters. After all, Obama is still president.
• The American flag in the Betsy Ross House will be replaced with flags from Cuba, Venezuela and other failed socialist regimes.
• God?---who?
• Entitlements will be referred to as "rights."
• There will be little mention of the JV Team. 
• Obamacare will be hailed as a great accomplishment even as Humana just announced it is planning on leaving 8 of the 19 health exchanges it now operates. Oh! Health insurance rates rose by about 8%---higher than in previous years.
• The presstitutes in the media will all be feeling a tingling down their legs.
• Elizabeth Warren will still be using smoke signals rather than social media.
• Hillary Clinton will not talk much about Benghazi, Libya, Syria, Iran, N. Korea, Russia and ISIS.  I think we know why.
• We will be told Republicans and conservatives hate children, old folks, blacks and most are Islamophobia.
• Hillary Clinton will suddenly love the military. After all, she said she wanted to join the Marines.
• Civil rights will be hailed unless you're an American citizen, conservative, straight, a gun owner and a person of faith.
• We will be told education is in need of more "investment." (that's code for more taxpayer money). This even though trillions have been "invested" in education in the last 40 years.
• Bill Clinton will be present for some of the convention. After all, the 1% are busy folks and there's a Hooters in Philadelphia.
• Hollywood will be well represented.
• Bernie?---he's still feeling the Bern and the pain.
• And they will try to convince America Harry Reid is not the most miserable prick in the Senate.

America!!! What a country!!!

Postscript: And now, WikiLeaks---delicious!

Progressives Gave Birth To Lies That Are Now Endangering + Killings Cops

BREAKING NEWS:

Trump is running as a "law and order" candidate and Hillary will run as a "reckless and extremely reckless" candidate... Walter Cronkite Tweet (parody)

----

After the five police officers were murdered last week in Dallas,  Mr. Obama couldn't help himself and veered into his usual anti-gun nonsense.  In addition, he invited Black Lives Matter movement representatives into the WH including the race-baiting thug, Al Sharpton---again (actually dozens of times).  And mind you, he extended his invitation to the WH to people whose surrogates  regularly chant slogans about killing police officers.  As one observer remarked,  Obama meets with people in the WH "whose ankle bracelets go off" during their conference.  He also meets too often with people who perpetuated falsehoods as we've witnessed with the "Hands Up/Don't Shoot" hoax.

Hillary Clinton courted the Black Lives Matter leaders. She and her staff did that a year ago this month.  More disturbing, yesterday she  attended a NAACP conference in Cincinnati and pointed the blame at law enforcement. This after the murder of 8 police officers in Dallas and Baton Rouge. She has a long history of shamelessly pandering even to the point of voicing different accents depending on the group she is addressing.  Her use of accents has even been parodied by SNL on at least one occasion. But don't take my word regarding her pandering,  it's one of many issues Bernie Sanders used when he was running against her.

Last evening, at the GOP Convention,  Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke (one of my all-time heroes) and who happens to be black, said this in his speech to the attendees: "...So many of the actions of the Occupy Movement and Black Lives Matter transcend peaceful protest and violates the code of conduct we rely on..."

It's become increasingly clear that progressives have given birth to the lies that are now endangering the lives of citizens and police officers. 

I'll leave you with a letter by Gary Taustine to The NY Post when he wrote: "Keep blaming the police for defending themselves and eventually there will be none left to defend you {us}."
