We have never had total war against a candidate like were seeing with Donald Trump. All elements of national media are uniting to stop him.
Look for a fake Trump scandal to break -- probably from a conservative news outlet -- right before the Iowa caucus.
A few months ago an alleged Trump quote from a 1998 People magazine interview was circulating on the Internet claiming Trump said that if he ever ran for president hed run as a Republican because Republican voters are the dumbest group of voters in the country. They believe anything on Fox News. I could lie and theyd still eat it up.
I pay a lot for Nexis and Trump has never said anything remotely resembling this. Snopes.com investigated too and also concluded the quote was a fake. But you can probably still find some idiot tweeting it out right now.
Last week Glenn Beck retweeted a post allegedly tweeted by Trump the day after the 2012 election saying: I always vote for the winners! Congratulations to My Friend @BarackObama!
If that doesnt sound like Trump its because Trump never said it. Becks retweet sure made it look real but you can check Trumps Twitter archive.
All the stories about Trump being a fraud keep turning out to be the real frauds. I assume that like most sentient beings hes changed his mind about some things. But the one consistent thread running through his entire life is his love for this country and his fellow Americans.
The attacks on Trump from the conservative media as a socialist a Democrat a flip-flopper a fake conservative are just name-calling. I notice that the accusers never include examples not true ones anyway. Here are some examples of how Trump has always been for Americans first. Wouldnt it be nice to have a president who likes us more than he likes foreigners -- and the rich donors who employ them?
In 1986 Trump saw a TV broadcast with Annabell Hill whose 67-year-old husband had committed suicide 20 minutes before their family farm was to be auctioned off in a foreclosure sale hoping the life insurance money would be enough to save the farm. It wasnt.
Trump immediately called Annabell promising to save her farm and pledging $20000 toward the effort. Last night when he called my heart went pitter patter Annabell told ABCs World News Tonight. I never talked with a man with that much money before. And he assured me that one day the land would be mine. I thought after I hung up This cant be true this just cant be true.
As Trump explained to The Atlanta Constitution at the time Ive seen whats happened to farmers but I was particularly interested in a lovely woman I saw Annabell Hill.
Within a month of Trumps launching a national campaign with two other businessmen to save Annabells farm they had raised more than $100000. One of the businessmen Frank A. Argenbright Jr. said That is thanks totally to Mr. Trump and his organization. Most of the money has come from the New York area.
By Christmas that year Annabell and her entire family flew to New York to burn the mortgage in the lobby of Trump Towers and have Christmas dinner with the Trump family. The lovely Annabell said Well we have a real celebration not only to celebrate the birth of Jesus but also to celebrate the goodness in mens hearts.
Thirty years ago Trump wasnt thinking about running for president. And yet this is how he explained his campaign to save Annabells farm as quoted by The Associated Press: We give a lot of money to foreign countries that dont give a damn about us but we dont help the American farmers.
Two years later Trump was interviewed by Larry King at the 1988 Republican National Convention. Please look up this interview -- its fabulous.
Two things will be of particular interest. First watch how Trump keeps circling back to praise Dan Quayle. King doesnt even ask him about Quayle -- a figure of media ridicule at the time because of his Midwest conservatism. Its Trump who keeps doggedly bringing up Quayle in order to say hes a very impressive guy who did a great job -- I dont mean a good job I mean a great job.
Second Trump expressly rejects Kings characterization of him as an Eastern Republican or a Rockefeller Republican saying the people he does best with are the taxi drivers and the workers.
Trumps business is real estate and real estate cant be outsourced. His flag is planted in this country. If America goes down his empire goes down.
Conservative pundits keep assuring clueless viewers that Trump is not a real Republican. They seem not to grasp that most viewers are saying Thats fantastic! Thanks for reminding me. (I look forward to conservative talk show hosts 20 years hence billing themselves as Trump Republicans.)
Looking at what the party has become I certainly hope hes not a real Republican. I know hes a real American. Those used to be the same thing.
