The Tea Party’s infatuation with Donald Trump may be over.
Now, “may” is the operative word, since rumors of Trump’s demise, as you might have noticed, have been a touch overstated.
Now, “may” is the operative word, since rumors of Trump’s demise, as you might have noticed, have been a touch overstated. But the Republican presidential frontrunner’s recent call for a moratorium on Muslim immigration has put him at odds with some of the most conservative people on the right—including congressional Tea Party darlings.

To me, this concocted choir of media figures and GOP contestants all together joining chorus against Trump, is just a proof - Trump has a point and is right. They want to get rid of him, just to replace a sane uncorrupted agenda with the opposite.

Link that he hates Mexicans? Don't just go spouting off because of left wing propaganda you hear.
I posted my opinion and I forgot to check with you first? You write opinions and I 'spout off'? Interesting.
I'm sure you can find the vid rather easily where he says all Mexicans are rapists, thieves, blah blah, and he's going to round up 11 million Hispanics and send them back. Build a wall. If that's not hatred I don't know what is. Knock yourself out.

He wants illegals out of here and he wants them to come here legally and wait in line like all the others.
Yes but will he be able to pay the legals under the table like the illegals that already work for him? When he announce his bid for presidency he mentioned nothing about illegals he just said Mexicans. It was after his little speech before the paid to be there crowd that he changed his statement to include illegals.

A lot of you guys just have no morality, no ethics.
You are the kind of people who would be at the right side of Hitler as he murdered the Jews, the Gypsies the gays, the French, the American POW’s etc
One day that will come back to haunt you
You have no right to condemn ISIS because you are like them
When Trump starts killing people many people here will justify it with him
The 2016 candidate has more in common with the terrorist group than he does with America
This is not hyperbole. Not a metaphor. Webster defines terrorism as “the use of violent acts to frighten the people in an area as a way of trying to achieve a political goal; the systematic use of terror especially as a means of coercion.”
If violence can be an abstraction — and it can; that’s what a threat is — the Trump campaign meets this definition. Thus, Trump is ISIS’s greatest triumph: the perfect Manchurian Candidate who, instead of offering specific and realistic policies, preys on the fears of the public, doing ISIS’s job for them. Even fellow Republican Jeb Bush acknowledged Trump’s goal is “to manipulate people’s angst and fears.”
The Federal Bureau of Investigation, however, defines terrorism as “the unlawful use of force or violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives.” Now, we don’t require by law that our candidates tell the truth. They can retweet (as Trump did) racist “statistics” from a white supremacist fictional organization that claimed 81% of murdered whites are victims of blacks, when the truth is 84% of whites are murdered by whites. They can claim (as Trump did) to have seen on TV thousands of Muslims in New Jersey cheering on 9/11, even though there is no evidence of this. They can say (as Trump did) Syrian refugees are “pouring” into the country when only 2,000 have come (out of 4.3 million U.N.-registered refugees). Then, when caught lying (as Trump has been over and over), they can do what every belligerent child does: deny, deny, deny.

Ha! Yeah... He'd only been his best pal and listened to him for 20 years. Lemme guess, Wright had just started talking about damning America right before obama "angrily" disowned him, amirite? Lol.... I bet the previous 19 years and 11 months, Wright was a perfect angel and didn't have one angry word to say about America or anything else. Pff
