Capitol Hill Blue Forums Hot Topics & Breaking News News Trump's Trumpet

Maybe the "foreign former nude model" characteristic of Trump's many wives is starting to reach his supporters. We can have a President with a homely wife, we can have a President with a very competent wife, but can we have a President with a wife that inspires lust in teenage boys?

I'm not too sure about that, in the minds of some of his supporters. (Cruz on the other hand, has a very typical "First Lady" looking wife.) Presidents of the US have certainly had good-looking mistresses before, but their wives tend to look mature and dignified.

Maybe President Trump would even decide the current wife needed to be upgraded with the next younger bimbo, while in office. Wouldn't that be special, to quote the Church Lady.

the story regarding Sen Cruz's affairs has been in the ether for a while ... apparently it was known by MSM which ignored it but finally picked up by the tabloids ... Rubio's campaign apparently knew about it and tried to promote it to no avail .... Trump's campaign may not have known the story at all especially considering what his nutty spokesperson told CNN today

If true is should impact his campaign i.e. family values super Christian, son of God, etc

Trump's campaign may have reached a critical ceiling and momentum, but then, there may be several reasons to explain it i.e. anti-Trump establishment, PAC's etc

While you guys worried about a buffoon the real threat to America has a tenuous relationship with people (the enemy of my enemy)who would otherwise not give him the time of day.

I see dark days ahead

Trump clues us in on when America was great.


Turns out the last time was during the period of highest marginal income tax rates... Maybe taxes have something to do with America's greatness?

America's Greatness probably had more to do with most of our competitors being destroyed in WW II than any inherent superiority. I got news for Trump and his followers: That time is not coming back any time soon, unless you start WW III and everybody fails to nuke the US.

I gotta take issue with that, sorry.
Yeah maybe for the first three years or so, EU was in a shambles and manufacturing was DOA but please note, German manufacturing recovered so quickly that they didn't even take much Marshall Plan money because they insisted they didn't need it.
By 1950 or so, and definitely by 1952, Germany's manufacturing was back on track, same for Italy, France and the UK.

We cannot attribute a thirty year postwar prosperity boom to nothing more than winning the war and nothing else.

A lot of VW, Ferrari, Peugeot and Morris owners would disagree, a lot of wristwatch owners would laugh while checking the time, tons of photographers would put down their Leicas or drop their Zeiss lenses, Blaupunkt radio listeners would turn down the volume and arch their eyebrows.

I still have my German grandparent's 1954 Blaupunkt "world band"
AM-FM-SW-LW deluxe Hi-Fi radio, it sure is a beauty, a real heirloom.

latest poll shows Sen Cruz ahead in Wisc ... just saying

By the way, if you're hitting the WaPo pay wall, here's the YouTube link to the video.

(I think this is the correct one, yes?)

While Trump is probably the most easily defeatable candidate it's still not necessarily a bad thing. In a perfect world we might hope to see a contested Republican Convention in which neither of these candidates is chosen as as the nominee. If an arbitrary candidate is chosen at the convention we might see a revolt among Republican voters. Trump supporters would stay home, evangelicals might vote in reduced numbers and the base, in general, probably won't be happy with whomever is chosen. A situation likely to guarantee a win for the Democrats. The only downside I see is that Trump may run on a third party ticket which will bring out his supporters en masse and while Democrats would easily win the presidency, the down ticket Republican candidates would fare better and likely keep their majority in the Senate.

Bernie ahead of Hillary too in Wisconsin.

Word is that if Trump gets the GOP nomination, the Dems could take the House, Senate, and Presidency.
