Donald Trump Attacked!
This is Ray Mossholder.
Imagine that you were a debater and the debate was being broadcast over international television. You and your opponent come onto the stage, but suddenly two other well-known debaters come on stage too. And when the debate begins, the two debaters to either side of you begin heckling you and denying everything you say. Meanwhile, the other debater has no one heckling him. The debate goes on for two full hours and you have a very hard time making your points because you are interrupted so often by the two hecklers. How would you look to those watching?
I’ve just described last night’s Republican debate. You would be Donald Trump. The hecklers who would also be running for president – Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio – who contradicted Trump time and time again, while, when he could get a word in edge wise, he showed them where they were wrong. To those watching the debate whether in the audience or over TV, the three candidates looked like they were having a food fight. And that’s why John Kasich could say at one point in the debate “I’ve been called ‘the only adult on the GOP debate stage”.
Put yourself in the shoes of Donald Trump. What would you do in his same position. Of course, Cruz and Rubio are desperately trying to climb with the voters so that one of them will be elected president. The real question is: Do they both have to act like barking dogs in order to do it? Could you stand on a stage in front of millions of people while two of them yelled in your ears while you were trying to talk? Ted Cruz went so far as to mock Donald Trump by telling him “Just take a deep breath Donald. Take a deep breath.” Cruz didn’t see that just one time, but on two different occasions. After the second time, Marco Rubio mocked “I want to speak when the yoga session is over!”
I started looking at the Fox News website following last night’s debate. It’s bylines were rude to only one candidate. It has banners like “Trump deflects Fox’s questions; rivals fail to capitalize in Detroit.” Here’s another: “A rattled Trump debates in Detroit: Kasich, Cruz, are nights winners.” And still another: “Trump shocks and entertains at debate. But are voters growing tired of the circus act?” Then I began looking at the other news sources. They are all attacking Trump. I don’t know about you, but it makes me angry when someone is picked on unfairly while others who were even more guilty get off Scott free.
At the beginning of last night’s debate, Donald Trump made reference to the crude remark Marco Rubio made to his rally crowd on Wednesday – a remark that I shared with you on Wednesday’s newscast, about the size of the Donald’s hands. But Rubio didn’t stop there. He very clearly pointed to below his own belt and indicated that Donald Trump had another part of his anatomy that was tiny. When Mister Trump made mention of the fact that Marco was wrong about both his hands and other parts, in interviews afterward among Fox news anchors, they blamed the Donald for making a crude joke last night. Marco got no blame at all for his crude joke that prompted Donald Trump’s response.
Bill O’Reilly made the remark following the debate that he has never seen anything like this in all of his thirty-five years in television news. I can extend that. I’ve never seen anything like it in my much longer lifetime. Whether Donald Trump ends up the Republican nominee or not, he is being unfairly treated by his two hecklers on stage, by the news anchors interviewing him last night, on many news channels and talkshows, and by much of the rest of the mass media. Why? Mitt Romney made it extremely clear today. Mitt, speaking at the University of Utah, sounded like he wanted to get into the food fight too. What needs to be understood is that Mitt Romney is now a Republican good old boy – a Karl Rove-ite – ready to play one of the dirtiest roles ever in the Republican Party. That group, with Mitt as their superstar, wants to replace Trump with Mitt at the Republican Convention in July. It is dirty politics at its very lowest and the only way that Donald Trump can be assured of having enough delegates by the time the convention comes, so that he isn’t replaced, is to win solidly for the next two weeks.
What the Republican leadership is proving is that they have absolutely no care at all about what American voters want to put in office. They want to elect someone they know they can control . You don’t matter to them, however you vote.
Today we received in the mail a letter from the Republican National Committee asking for a donation. They also asked for a stamp to be put on their envelope so that it would save them the money for that. Georgia wrote in the letter that she sent back to them “You won’t get a dime from me until you quit attacking Donald Trump.” Oh, and she didn’t put a stamp on the envelope, so they will pay for it. You don’t have to be for Donald Trump to do that. You just have to be for honest elections. I highly recommend you do the same thing the next time you get anything in the mail from the Grand Old Party.
I promise to keep you posted on all of this.
For now, there are several stories breaking this morning about the 2012 loser, Mitt Romney. Although he will not have appeared in any of the debates this year, Romney wants another try for the Oval Office while totally skipping the debates. Mitt’s closest advisers are working on changing Republican convention rules so that he can step in as the hero and send Donald Trump packing.
Donald Trump needs 1,237 delegates to lock up the nomination. Romney is absolutely dedicated to seeing but that never happens. Romney has already stated too that again he wants House Speaker Paul Ryan as his running mate again.
Yesterday Mitt Romney lashed out at Trump and urged voters to vote for anyone but him. Romney said if he were voting in Florida, he would definitely vote for Marco Rubio. Romney will not stop there, but you can count on seeing him say anything and everything to stop the needed delegates to vote for Trump. Mitt sounded like he was already pulling all stops when he said “His bankruptcies have crushed small businesses and the men and women who worked for them. He inherited his business, he didn’t create it. And whatever happened to Trump Airlines? How about Trump University? And then there’s Trump Magazine and Trump Vodka and Trump Steaks, and Trump mortgage? A business genius he is not.” … For a different look at what Mitt Romney said, go to reachmorenow.com’s front page or Reach More Now YouTube’s playlist and find the latest Larry and Ray Show titled Donald Trump and the 2016 Campaign.
Until we Americans wake up and realize the corruption that is happening before our eyes, the corruption will grow worse and worse until our nation is destroyed. Mitt Romney proves the point. It’s way past time for all of us to open our windows and shout those words from the movie Network: I’m mad as hell, and I won’t take this anymore!” And for those of you who think Christians shouldn’t talk about what, just take a look at Jesus when he went into God’s Temple and overturned the money changers. Righteous anger is always right.
Since I’ve gone that far, if you watched the debate have you been wondering what that white spot was on Ted Cruz’s lip about twenty minutes after the debate got started? England’s newspaper says it came from his nose and that he ate it. Twitter has gone viral ever since. My favorite tweet was from a man named Dan Rollins who tweeted Donald Trump “Please remind Ted Cruz to say grace this morning. He clearly forgot to last night before he ate that booger.”
This is Ray Mossholder from the Reach More Now news desk in Fort Worth, Texas, with Campaign 2016. More by this evening. Until then, have a beautiful day.
