Now We Know The Reason The GOP Establishment Is “Warming Up” To Trump

TrumpDealer

Trump says he will work with Leftist Democrats, will make ‘great deals’ with them.

One of the reasons why outsiders have been polling well in this cycle is because the electorate is pissed-off and sick and tired of the GOP Party Establishment making ‘deals’ with Obama and the Democrats and handing them their entire agenda to send the country off-the-cliff into Marxist Socialism with wide-open borders to the third world.

Along comes Trump – who talked the talk of someone who would fight back and do the very things our so-called representatives have refused to do: STOP and undo the Leftist/Marxist/Islamist Agenda that Obama and the Democrats have imposed on the country.

Then the Ruling Class and their apparatchiks in the Establishment Media went on a massive blitzkrieg to destroy Trump, doing everything from suggesting he was a criminal to a wannabe Hitler.  It is why it was baffling that these same Establishment types have suddenly done an about-face and publicly said in the last week they can ‘work with Trump’.

Now we know why.

For those of us scratching our heads as to how and why the GOP Party Establishment would suddenly do an about-face and embrace Trump, The Donald goes ahead and lets us all know the actual reason why:

 

There you have it.  He will work with the Democrats, just like McConnell, McCain, Graham, Boehner, Ryan and the rest of the Establishment have said they would do, and did.

In fact Trump said yesterday that the GOP Establishment “Likes me more than nasty guy Ted Cruz”.  How and why is that suddenly a PLUS for a guy who originally fashioned himself as an opponent of the GOP Establishment and won the YUUUGE following he has garnered??

Making America great again?  No.  Trump will do no such thing if the ‘art of the deal’ is what he thinks the Presidency is all about.  Making deals to ‘get along’ is what got us into this mess in the first place Mr. Trump.

‘Working with’ the very people and party that have destroyed the country is exactly what the GOP Establishment has already done.  Why make deals with Leftists and the very inside cabal that his mobs of followers think he is going to defy?  What sense does that make?  Does Trump not understand the fact that the Left NEVER compromises their Agenda, NEVER surrenders any ground and ALWAYS requires our sides’ capitulation for any ‘deal’ to be struck??

Will Trump ‘make deals’ and work with with ISIS, Al Qaeda and Iran for the sake of ‘getting along’?  His recent spate of comments in the last few days is not comforting and raises MAJOR red flags. Apparently, getting a deal and getting along is more important than standing on fundamental principles according to The Donald.

Must be more of those ‘New York Values” he fancies.  You know, the kind that made avowed Communist Bill DeBlasio the Mayor of New York.

I don’t think the desperate mobs of people supporting Trump are listening to what he is actually saying beyond entertainment sloganeering.  Trump said on 60 Minutes, he was going to replace ObamaCare with UNIVERSAL – SINGLE PAYER health care.

Donald Trump said that “Obamacare is a disaster” and that he plans to repeal it and replace it with a government-funded universal healthcare plan.

Government-funded ‘universal healthcare’??????????????

Forget the ‘bone’ he threw about ‘private plans’ and ‘negotiating with different companies’ because a government-funded single payer healthcare system cannot, and will not permit a free-market system competing with the government and the cronies who are going to be making bank in such a system.

No WONDER the Establishment Ruling Class is suddenly embracing Trump!  That proposal is the very Soviet system that ObamaCare was designed to usher-in after it destroyed the health insurance industry.  Trump is simply going to hand Obama, Pelosi and Schumer the gift that the Fabian Socialists have intended to do for 100 years, that even Obama himself couldn’t do right away.

Trump will ‘make a deal’ and hand them what they have wanted as their brass ring in a single swoop.

And not a wrinkle of concern from his supporter base.

Of course Trump knows the mob he leads, and he, himself said – he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and not lose a single supporter. Joke or not, there is truth to that statement.

But what if Trump shoots the very reason why he garnered so much support in the first place?  It remains to be seen whether his supporters are just a seig-heiling mob that want him as a political messiah, or whether or not they actually give a crap about the issues Trump says he was going to “fix”.

Alarmingly, there is a pattern to Trumps statements that should garner concern.  Trump keeps talking about making deals as President, as if the Executive branch exists for the sole purpose of making deals instead of executing the Laws of the Land and upholding the Constitution, which is NOT NEGOTIABLE.  Trump may very well think the Constitution negotiable if getting a ‘deal’ ‘trumps’ standing on the very foundational principles that made America what it once was.

The Donald cannot make America ‘great again’ with a mindset like that.  For a President we need a faithful Administrator not a Monty Hall gameshow host.

 

Trump: I’ll Work With Democrats

Tuesday, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said if he were president, he would work with  Democrats including House Minority Leader Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY).

…“Well, I think that I’m going to be able to get along with Pelosi. I think I’m going to be able to — I’ve always had a great relationship with Nancy Pelosi, I’ve never had a problem.” Trump said.

…Hey, look, I think I’d be able to get along well with Schumer, Chuck Schumer. I was always very good with Schumer. I was close to Schumer in many ways. And it’s important to get along. It’s wonderful to say you’re a maverick and you’re going to stand up and close up the country, and all other things, but you have to get somebody to go along with you.

Government Will Decide Who Lives and Who Dies

Obama’s syrupy rhetoric disguises a slow-drip poison intended to give government the power to decide whether you live or die.

DocObama

A snippet from the transcript from yesterday’s full court propaganda push by state run media reveals the insidious hidden nature of Obama’s nationalization of the health care industry.  A plan that will give the government the power to regulate what you eat, how you live and even how you vote if you want or need health care.  The real truth is that everything related to healthcare is going to be decided and based on cost.   If you are too fat, too old, too white, too rich or smoked, did drugs or ate meat – some government stooge is going to deny your ability to get care for whatever ails you.

Once the government gets control of deciding who gets health care – it can then be easily manipulated to make deciding factors for care reach the truly insidious proportions, such as “did you ever vote for anyone other than a Democrat”?  If you did – that may decide whether or not you get the stamp of approval for that surgery you need to remove your gall bladder.   After all, in many places – welfare already operates on such litmus test requirements for aid.

As Obama masterfully hinted last night without actually stating it plain; instead of a life saving surgery or pacemaker to extend your life – you will get pain pills instead.  Decisions he says “we” will have to make.  Understand that everywhere Obama uses the word “we”, he is talking about GOVERNMENT being the “we”.

One wonders if his amazing slight-of-tongue to mesmerize the masses under his spell of Marxism is again going to triumph here – or will he simply ramrod this takeover through by sheer force?

But what needs to be noticed – is how Obama skillfully hints at what he truly intends without making it obvious.  His plan for you is one that if you are too old by government standards – you get a pill instead of life saving surgery.

From ABC News

SAWYER: And we have with us a couple of people who really represent the opposite ends on this spectrum too. I want to talk, if I can, to Jane Sturm.

Your mother, Hazel…

JANE STURM: Caregiver for 105-year-old mother: Yes.

SAWYER: Hazel Homer (ph), 100 years old and she wanted…

STURM: She’s 105 now. Over 105. But at 100 the doctor had said to her, I can’t do anything more unless you have a pacemaker. I said, go for it. She said, go for it. But the arrhythmia specialist said, no, it’s too old.

Her doctor said, I’m going to make an appointment, because a picture is worth a thousand words. And when the other arrhythmia specialist saw her, saw her joy of life and so on, he said, I’m going for it.

So that was over five years ago. My question to you is, outside the medical criteria for prolonging life for somebody elderly, is there any consideration that can be given for a certain spirit, a certain joy of living, quality of life? Or is it just a medical cutoff at a certain age?

(snip)

….OBAMA: But, look, the first thing for all of us to understand is that we actually have some — some choices to make about how we want to deal with our own end-of-life care.  And that’s one of the things I think that we can all promote, and this is not a big government program. This is something that each of us individually can do, is to draft and sign a living will so that we’re very clear with our doctors about how we want to approach the end of life.

First off this is the big lie of Obama.  The entire full-court propaganda press is about conditioning the American people to swallow the biggest government program of all time.  This whole push is about big government getting control of health care.

Obama: I don’t think that we can make judgments based on peoples’ spirit. That would be a pretty subjective decision to be making. I think we have to have rules that say that we are going to provide good, quality care for all people.

This is insidious.  They will be making care decisions based on ALL KINDS of criteria based on cost, and notice how he suddenly thinks government can usurp the Hypocratic Oath doctors take – and create new rules and oaths to fit his new criteria for what constitutes ‘good’ quality care.

 

GIBSON: But the money may not have been there for her pacemaker or for your grandmother’s hip replacement.

OBAMA: Well, and — and that’s absolutely true. And end-of-life care is one of the most difficult sets of decisions that we’re going to have to make.

Oops – a little truth spilled out there.  Obama admits that life and death decisions are things “WE” (Government) will have to make.

Obama: I don’t want bureaucracies making those decisions, but understand that those decisions are already being made in one way or another. If they’re not being made under Medicare and Medicaid, they’re being made by private insurers.

Another lie.  The health care plan already circulating Congress expressly makes such decisions the province of a MASSIVE bureaucracy unlike mankind has ever seen.  And I’d rather my own private insurer make decisions on what they will cover for my health care than some stupid government stooge making it for me.  I can always shop for a different insurer.  None of us can shop for a different bureaucrat if they get that kind of control.

Obama: We don’t always make those decisions explicitly. We often make those decisions by just letting people run out of money or making the deductibles so high or the out-of-pocket expenses so onerous that they just can’t afford the care.

And all we’re suggesting — and we’re not going to solve every difficult problem in terms of end-of-life care. A lot of that is going to have to be, we as a culture and as a society starting to make better decisions within our own families and for ourselves.

Your government culture and Marxist society has no authority to make such decisions for me and my family.  Who the hell are you to tell us that we have to “start making better decisions’ – while at the same time, are demanding we accept a behemoth program that takes those decisions away and puts them in YOUR evil little hands???  I’m also sick of your veiled efforts to continually create demons for the people to hate, from corporate CEO’s to stockbrokers to doctors and health insurers.  You are a demagogue. 

Obama: But what we can do is make sure that at least some of the waste that exists in the system that’s not making anybody’s mom better, that is loading up on additional tests or additional drugs that the evidence shows is not necessarily going to improve care, that at least we can let doctors know and your mom know that, you know what?

Who decides what the waste is?  YOU?  Some Marxist bureaucracy you establish?  The “waste” that exists is already largely in place as a result of both medicare and medicaid rules and as a result of the billions of dollars in frivolous medical malpractice suits that have created encyclopedias of rules and regs insurance companies demand regarding how your doctor must treat you.  How about you get rid of the Trial lawyers?  We will save billions.

But you are in their pocket – so no.

Obama: Maybe this isn’t going to help. Maybe you’re better off not having the surgery, but taking the painkiller.

And those kinds of decisions between doctors and patients, and making sure that our incentives are not preventing those good decision, and that — that doctors and hospitals all are aligned for patient care, that’s something we can achieve.

And here is the plain truth of how Obama’s health care is going to operate.  HE will decide that you or your relatives are better off not having life saving surgery, but getting painkillers only – until you or your loved one dies.

Obama is pushing for government to decide if you live….or die.

 

And as usual, on the Kennedy plan circulating the halls of power, CONGRESS is exempted from being subject to the universal health care they are going to pass on the rest of us.  They get to keep the plan they now have.  Meanwhile, you and I will be forced to stand in line for a pain pill.

Something Wicked This Way Comes

A Socialist Agenda of Saul Alinsky Is Being Waged by Obama and the Democrats

obamawickedthis-waycomes

“We are the hungry ones. Your torments call us like dogs in the night, and we’re to feed and feed well.  We stuff ourselves on other people’s nightmares and butter our plain bread with delicious pain…We suck that misery and find it sweet.  We search for more, always” – Mr. Dark,   Ray Bradbury’s Something Wicked This Way Comes

 

We are moving so fast towards a Marxist tyranny, we cannot keep up with everything that is happening and being proposed and imposed.

Just today, during the signing of Porkulus in Denver – Obama stated that we will have “smart meters” put on all our homes – to ‘monitor’ our energy use, in which he lied boldfaced about the intent of such a device.  It is NOT to cut our energy costs or cut down on power outages – but it is a device to meter and document WHEN and HOW you use that energy, and to report it to the government for taxation.

Obama said that he will be launching “other” aspects of an ambitious plan to ‘change’ the country.

Roger King from the Canada Free Press documents the Marxist agenda of the first few weeks of this regime we will suffer under.

 

Something Wicked This Way Comes

By Roger King  Tuesday, February 17, 2009 

Barack Obama’s has been in power for about a month but his promise of “change” appears to be more than just a liberal agenda. Not only is it becoming apparent that the economic crisis is being used to push a socialist agenda that would make Sol Alinsky proud but there are some very disturbing signs how the Democratic plan to win subsequent elections.

Bailout Bill

Obama campaigned on a message of “hope over fear” but his current rhetoric talks about a crisis of catastrophic scope if the bailout bill isn’t passed immediately. What makes this suspicious is the fact CBO states most of the bill will only take effect at the end of 2010 and will actually hurt our gross national product over the following 10 years. Its apparent president Obama used this bill to accomplish things that would have been much harder to pass on their own merit.

 

  • Religious discrimination: Buried in the bill is a section that bans religious activities in many public education buildings. Further, there are upgrades to the national school systems but they are prohibited where religious activates may occur. Democrats voted 43-54 against an amendment to strike from the economic stimulus bill language that discriminates against people of faith.
  • Universal Health Care: The outline for Universal Health care will be put in place through this bill. In mandating a computer system for all medical records, every person will be mandated to have their records recorded in Federal DB. 
    A National Coordinator of Health Information Technology is going to be created to monitor this system. This outline will likely be used to track treatments to make sure your doctor is doing what the federal government deems appropriate and cost effective. Hospitals and doctors that are not “meaningful users” of the new system will face penalties.
  • ACORN: Potentially up to $4 billion for radical groups like ACORN will be dispersed. ACORN is a radical socialist group that helped the housing bust by pushing banks into making bad loans and is accused of voter fraud in over 6 states. This group openly supports the Democrats and their tactics were learned through Sol Alinsky teachings. Obama even taught these classes to ACORN in his Chicago days.
  • Open Ended Welfare Returns: The bill sets in motion another $523 billion in new welfare spending that is hidden by budgetary gimmicks. Although this bill pretends that most of its welfare benefit increases will lapse after two years, the intend for most of these increases to become permanent. Instead of Welfare ending for recipients in 5 years that was done during the Clinton administration, now welfare entitlements will be open ended.
  •  

    TARP Funds to Control Business

    TARP funds have been used to buy stock in banks and financial institutions which essentially is the government buying ownership stakes in these companies. The question is will the government keep this ownership and for how long. President Obama has also decided to limit the executive pay to no more than $500, 000 per year for those companies that receive the bailouts. Of course they say these are only temporary measures but no end date has been given. To top it off Barney Frank is proposing that the government regulate the pay for all executives but for some reason not for lawyers or the Hollywood elite.

    Gun Control

    In the first session of Congress the liberals introduced H.R. 45 (Blair Holt’s Firearm Licensing and Record of Sale Act of 2009). This bill targets anyone who owns a gun by requiring them to register all guns within 2 years. Every 5 years the gun owners much go through a renewal process for each gun they own. Failure to comply with these rules carry heavy penalties jail time and loosing your guns. Probably the worst provision authorizes government searches without warrants. A new federal bureaucracy will be created to monitor this process. Do you really expect the liberal elites to allow automatic gun renewal?

    Silencing The Media

    To anyone but the most ardent liberal, its quite apparent that the majority of the media is blatantly supporting Obama’s ever action. The revelation that for 17 years Rahm Emmanuel (Obama’s Chief of Staff), George Stephanopoulos (ABC News), James Carville and Paul Begala (CNN) have had daily hour long calls that have continued into the Obama administration is but one example. Even though CNN is selling Obama shirts they will tell you they are not bias. Actions by the Obama administration have made it quite apparent to the media you are either with Obama or you will systematically be silenced.

    For those that don’t follow “the program”, you will be punished. For example, during the election the Washington Times, Fox News, N.Y. Post and Dallas Morning News got kicked off the Obama’s plane. It wasn’t lost on the press that all these groups were McCain supporters. During press conferences Obama preselects who will be called to ask questions. Ask the wrong questions and you won’t get picked again. Again this isn’t lost on the adoring press.

    Using one of Sol Alinsky’s sayings “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”, President Obama told Republican’s “You can’t just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done.” Although so far President Obama has claimed he doesn’t want a fairness doctrine, there is a growing push to bring back some form of the “Fairness Doctrine”.

    Obama has already talked about wanting more minority ownership and requiring broadcasters to operate “in the public interest” which will be over see by government or community groups. To add to the pressure shortening licensing terms will make it more likely owner will just abandon talk radio. The House Energy and Commerce Committee is also looking into policies that would allow it greater internet oversight.

    Census

    The census taking is supposed to be ruled in a bipartisan manner. However, the Obama administration is attempting to move the execution of the U.S. Census from the Department of Commerce to the White House under Rob Emanuel’s control. This is totally unprecedented and against federal law. Sen. Judd Gregg withdrew his name from consideration as Sec. of Commerce in large part because of this action.

    So what is the problem with having the White House running the Census? The census results drive how welfare and aid to states is distributed. Further congressional seats per state and the electoral college changes with these results.

    Instead of having the normal direct count, Robe Emanuel wants to estimate numbers instead of an actual count for minority groups. To make matters even more interesting, under the White House direction there would be less requirements for openness as to the process that was used to arrive at the census results. Talk about the potential for major gerrymandering that could bring a windfall of new Democrat votes.

    Illegal Immigrates Getting Amnesty

    Once again there is an immigration bill working its way through Congress. It would give Illegal Aliens 24 hour to get access with their lawyers paid with tax payer dollars. Temporary Visa can be renewed indefinitely. Tax payer money would also go to Mexico to have their . Illegal Aliens won’t have to pay back taxes but will get tax credits. North American Union will be fast tracked. In state tuition to college will always apply.

    When our country is in such a bad recession, why would you want new citizens that inherently use over twice tax money than they play? Why would we want more workers in our country when unemployment is over 7%? Again they overwhelmingly vote Democratic.

    District of Columbia to have Congressional Votes

    Democrats want to give full representative to District of Columbia thereby giving them two senators and a representative for the House of Representatives. Since only states have this ability, Congress will pass a law giving the District of Columbia “the functional equivalent of a state”. On February 11, 2009 a senate committee passed this very bill and will be voted on by all members in the coming weeks. You would be right if you guessed that the District of Columbia would vote Democratic?

    Civilian Expeditionary Workforce

    While on the campaign trail Barack Obama said “We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.” You Tube Link

    Now, the Defense Department has established just such a “Civilian Expeditionary Workforce” (Defense Department Directive 1404.10) that will see American civilians trained and equipped to deploy overseas in support of worldwide military missions.Link According to a Defense Department report the intent of this program “is to maximize the use of the civilian workforce to allow military personnel to be fully utilized for operational requirements,”

    Is this an initial step towards fulfilling president Obama’s promise to form a civilian national security force as powerful as the U.S. military? Will this “Civilian Expeditionary Workforce” ever be used in the US? Will we see “youth brigades” roaming the streets to protect us? We will have to keep a close eye on this.
