Trump Will Win the Nomination

The foreign policy talking points even contradict themselves. My favorite "fact" always thrown out by defense lovers is the number of something and comparing it to a period in history where technologically it wasn't even close. We don't need 800 ships because they aren't battleships, we don't need 1000 planes because next generation fighters have a 40:1 kill ratio, the F22 was only limited in the number of kills by the number of missiles it could carry.

Also, you don't need as big a defense budget now as when W left office, because we don't have over 150,000 troops fighting a ground war and all the people to support them. You also didn't include that we use reusable drones that cost far less than entire teams of fighter squadrons.

If we angle the camera exactly right we may be able to get the triple penetration scene perfect with Dean, Trump, and Knight all around BKF.

Much has been said about the feckless nature of the Republican leadership as the primary reason why Mr. Trump is this close to the GOP nomination.

That's an element, but not the decisive factor.

A broad disenchantment with the direction of America has fueled the Trump campaign. And that can be laid right on the progressive doorstep.

With his sweep yesterday, Trump simply needs only to win Indiana next Tuesday to secure the nomination.

That will not be easy and he will still need delegates, but it's essentially over if he takes the Hoosier State.

There are four main themes that Donald Trump is exploiting.

First, illegal immigration. Many powerful progressives like Bernie Sanders and the New York Times are open borders people.

They want a European Union situation where anyone can pretty much go where they want. To the far-left, borders are obsolete and anti-poor.

Many Americans are horrified by that stance and have watched with anger as U.S. immigration law has been disrespected and even mocked.

Trump promises to end all that.

Second, economic anxiety. Most Americans know someone who has gotten hammered in the marketplace. Most Americans do not have much money in the bank. Do the math.

Trump says he will punish concerns that steal American jobs and are unfair on the trade front. Economic justice is appealing to both the right and the left this primary season, and both Trump and Sanders have capitalized.

Third, U.S. weakness. Americans are appalled over the continuing atrocities coming out of the Muslim world. Yes, it is Islamic extremists who drive this, but in country after country horror is on display.

President Obama's policy of containment and refusal to define the Islamic jihad as a true danger to the USA has lit a fuse of deep resentment in many American precincts.

Trump is not at all sympathetic to the Muslim world. Thus, he has captured the resentment over our perceived weakness.

Finally, political betrayal.

It is widely perceived that progressive Americans are on the march and traditional folks on the decline.

The question ‘where did my country go?’ captures that.

Trump portrays himself as an avenger - a man fed up with political correctness and the social fascism that often brings.

His outspoken attacks galvanize Americans who are bitterly disenchanted by a society that puts grievance above achievement, permissiveness above order.

After nearly eight years of the most liberal president in U.S. history, millions of voters have had enough of a social system that directly denigrates their values and caters to non-working individuals.

They want someone to blow that system to hell.

That's why Trump is winning. He pinpointed festering disenchantment long before anyone else.

How do you think these ads will play in the fall?

2. Turnberry in background- When Donald Trump bought Turnberry he promised the Scottish government 6000 new jobs. He created 60. He delivered 1% of what he promised. What will he deliver in America?

Actually he promised those jobs when he had Trump International in Aberdeen built. He clearly didn't deliver, but that's a pretty glaring factual error.

And Hillary would do well to steer clear of job creation debates with Trump. He's not perfect but he's well ahead of any other candidate in that regard. It's one of the few issues where he can claim real world experience.
