DONALD TRUMP'S LIFE IN PHOTOS: Governor Hugh Carey points to an artists' conception of the new New York Hyatt Hotel/Convention facility that will be built on the site of the former Commordore Hotel, June 28, 1978. At the launching ceremony are, from left: Donald Trump, son of the city developer Fred C. Trump; Mayor Ed Koch of New York; Carey; and Robert T. Dormer, executive vice president of the Urban Development Corp. For months, the press and the Republican establishment alike have been expecting the Trump bubble to implode. Now that it's clear Trump isn't going anywhere, we're seeing stories about a long slog of a campaign or even a brokered convention. But ...

It takes up too much time that could be better spent. Rep. David Jolly has reached the end of his rope on fundraising after less than two years in Congress. Rep. David Jolly (R-Fla.) has stopped personally asking donors to contribute to his 2016 Senate campaign. He wants to focus his time on more important tasks (although his campaign team will still be hitting people up). The congressman, currently serving his first full term, is also preparing legislation to give his fellow lawmakers a similar break. He plans to introduce the bill next week. Members of Congress have long bemoaned how much time they spend raising money for election campaigns. The parties have urged their congressional ...
The 2016 Elections, Whoopie, Yeah, Whatever...

Lots of people out there are getting too attached to the upcoming 2016 Presidential Elections. Hey, guys, guess what? We’ve still got pretty much a year left of the plain-wrap mac-n-cheese of presidents. Well, that’s not fair to say. Plain wrap mac-n-cheese actually delivers what the box says and doesn’t deliver things you didn’t pay for or want. Look, I hate to rain on peoples’ parades, well, actually, no I don’t. Just call me Stormy. But there’s a lot of damage this dude can do in the meantime! How many executive orders can Obama pass in the meantime? Right. To find that out, you’d need to get into some algebraic equation involving the number of ...
Hillary Clinton: A Deplorable Choice for President

Hillary Clinton: A Deplorable Choice for President by Stephen Lendman Among an array of deplorable Republican and Democrat presidential aspirants, Clinton stands out as the most dangerous and sinister of the bunch - an unrequited war goddess, risking nuclear confrontation if elected. Her record in office and since leaving government shows support for imperial lawlessness, indifference to human suffering, and addiction to self-aggrandizement, along with using her high office to accumulate great wealth. Clinton Foundation donors have direct ties to foreign nations, including a Saudi royal family member, corrupt Ukrainian oligarch/former Kiev parliamentarian, and anti-Chavista Venezuelan ...
John Kasich Rising—and Realist?

There’s now a minor media buzz about John Kasich, the Ohio governor who is now in clear second in New Hampshire—and rising. If he manages to vault even more clearly over Bush, Christie, and Rubio there, he’ll garner lots of national attention. Having attended two of his events, I could see him thriving under a greater spotlight. He’s smart, optimistic, has a compelling personal story, was a very successful governor of a swing state, has an attractive family (wife and three teenage daughters, traveling with him this week in the campaign). Most of his town halls are devoted to domestic issues: taxes, health care, job creation, tuition, the rise in opioid addiction. ...

Economist Says GOP Will Win This Many States on Election Day January 12th, 2016 A prominent economist from the Reagan Administration predicts that the GOP will win the White House in a landslide this November. Arthur Laffer was interviewed by a New York radio station and had a very positive outcome for this year’s election, as reported by The Federalist Papers Project: “I would be surprised if the Republicans don’t take 45, 46, 47 states out of the 50. “When I look at these candidates, I don’t see one of them who wouldn’t do a great job as president. I think Donald Trump is phenomenal, I think Rand Paul has done a great job, I even like Jeb Bush – I ...

Hillary's health gets worse by the day. Ed Klein wrote an expose book Unlikeable on her. Unlikeable is a severe understatement. Did you know 60% of the sheeple now feel she is not honest nor trustworthy? Polls prove this. Klein just published an update on her health problems. She always travels with a personal physician at all times. At a recent debate she went to the bathroom and didn't come back for 20 minutes. It was a health crisis. The stress of her pseudo campaign is literally killing her. Yes, it's a pseudo campaign, because she knows she is dying and can't possibly run for president this year. She has brain damage from the blood clot she had. She's on a junk food ...

Jeb Bush Shocked His Apple Watch Does More Than Tell Time GOP presidential candidate and sweater ascetic Jeb Bush’s emotional register on the campaign trail hovers between “mildly deflated” to “moderately chagrined”—but LOOK at how his eyes light up as he realizes that the expensive and impractical gadget he’s been wearing can make phone calls. Finally, a ! moment for our favorite dour Floridian scion! “My watch can’t be talking,” Bush said, as recognition that our merciless world can still contain a genuine surprise spreads across his face. “I’ve never had my bat phone turned on,” Jeb continued. “That’s the ...

An unexpectedly exciting race sees Sanders undermining Hillary, and the GOP in tumult. I arrived in Manchester, New Hampshire late Tuesday night, my home for the next four weeks (see the above “view from my window” photo). An election which seemed impossibly dreary six or eight months ago has been astonishingly upended into one of the more interesting contests in my lifetime. I plan to follow the news closely, attend as many events and talk to as many people as I can, and relate what I see and hear. I suspect Sanders will win handily in New Hampshire, and neither he nor Hillary will spend huge amounts of time here. If she wins here against the Vermonter, his unlikely challenge ...

“Three and Done” By Jim Rickards In the interminable run-up to the start of the Fed’s first tightening cycle in eleven years, many analysts used the phrase, “one and done” to describe the policy that Janet Yellen would pursue. Apart from having a nice ring to it, this was meant to convey the idea that after the first rate hike, the Fed would pause before hiking again. More to the point, the idea was that the Fed just wanted to get the first rate hike over with, and would move slowly and cautiously through the new tightening cycle. That’s not exactly what happened. The Fed did hike rates in December and might pause (no additional rate hike) at their ...

BURLINGTON, Vt. — Donald J. Trump touched down in one of America’s most progressive cities Thursday night, bringing the bombastic message that has captivated Republican voters into the backyard of a Democratic opponent, Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont. The visit came as the billionaire real estate mogul has made a point of broadening his focus beyond the early primary states, showcasing his popularity with packed rallies from Mississippi to Massachusetts, and now Vermont — a onetime Republican bastion that is now one of the most solid liberal states in the nation. The choice of venue seemed curious to some, but Thursday’s rally served multiple purposes for the Trump ...

Full story at CNN. NOTE: I have actually done quite a few articles on this loon Ben Carson, they are listed below. But one which I haven't done is a compilation of everyone who has referred to Carson as being mentally ill or psychologically disturbed. I said that the same the very first time I saw him speak. There's something very wrong and creepy about that guy. He's a glassy-eyed, dimwitted weirdo, no offense but it's so damn obvious!! Believe me there are quite a number of mainline articles, videos and pundits who have said this same thing about Carson over the past year, that he appears and acts obviously mentally ill. I haven't had the time to compile all this ...

RT... The 2012 Libertarian Party presidential nominee Gary Johnson has formally entered the 2016 campaign trail, hoping to be “the voice of reason” against the two major parties. The former governor of New Mexico bills himself as a “classic liberal.” "I want to take this opportunity to announce my candidacy for president. I am hoping to get the Libertarian nomination for president in 2016," Johnson said on the Fox Business Network on Wednesday. "On my deathbed, I'm hoping that I look back and believe that I was the voice of reason in all this, regardless of how many votes I end up garnering," he added. Last election cycle, Johnson appeared on ...
Bill Clinton—the Big Dog—Gets Fixed

It was a ‘subdued’ former president who turned out for Hillary in New Hampshire this week. It was a muted Bill Clinton who stumped for his wife in New Hampshire on Monday. Only a few weeks back, Mr. Clinton was thought to be Hillary Clinton’s “secret weapon.” Well, he has just made his first two appearances of the 2016 campaign— and the Associated Press describes him as “subdued,” while the New York Times says he “seemed to be on a tight leash.” Not to mention how adrift he looked when a reporter asked him about Donald Trump’s slams about his treatment of women. It’s not the first time the Big Dog has been fixed. Back during ...

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2 (UPI) -- Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., raised $33 million in the last quarter of 2015 and $75 million for the year, according to his campaign. "This people-powered campaign is revolutionizing American politics," said Jeff Weaver, campaign manager for Sanders, in a statement released Saturday. "What we are showing is that we can run a strong, national campaign without a super PAC and without depending on millionaires and billionaires for their support. We are making history and we are proud of it." Sanders ended 2015 with $28 million in cash from more than 2.5 million donations from more than one million donors. The campaign says only "a few ...

Sputnik... US Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump has accused his key Democratic rival Hillary Clinton and US President Barack Obama of creating Daesh, during his campaign speech on Saturday night. MOSCOW (Sputnik) — The real-estate tycoon claimed he had predicted the rise of Daesh in the Middle East, citing his calls on the Obama administration to target the group's oil assets in the militant-controlled territories. "They have a bunch of dishonest people. They've created ISIS [Daesh]. Hillary Clinton created ISIS with Obama," Trump announced to a cheering crod in Biloxi, Mississippi.

Clown Genius (Donald Trump's hypnosis techniques)

Like many of you, I have been entertained by the unstoppable clown car that is Donald Trump. On the surface, and several layers deep as well, Trump appears to be a narcissistic blow-hard with inadequate credentials to lead a country. The only problem with my analysis is that there is an eerie consistency to his success so far. Is there a method to it? Is there some sort of system at work under the hood? Probably yes. Allow me to describe some of the hypnosis and persuasion methods Mr. Trump has employed on you. (Most of you know I am a trained hypnotist and this topic is a hobby of mine.) For starters, Trump literally wrote the book on negotiating, called The Art of the Deal. So we know ...

Rubio is not a Republican Obama. And that’s his problem. Matt Bai National Political Columnist December 31, 2015 One of the most frequent refrains among Republican voters this year is that Barack Obama was tragically unprepared for the office when he was elected president. And this, more than anything else, is proving to be a problem for Marco Rubio, whose resume in government closely mirrors the president’s, and who has been compared to Obama from the moment he entered the national consciousness in 2010. Most often, Rubio tries to head off this comparison by repeatedly and acidly berating Obama, as if desperate to get across that, despite the obvious parallels, he’s ...

On Wednesday, the Wall Street Journal revealed that the Obama administration had spied on the Israeli government and, in the process, roped in communications the Netanyahu administration had with members of the U.S. Congress. This news sparked a denunciation by Florida Senator and Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio. “Obviously people read this report, they have a right to be concerned this morning about it,” said Rubio on Fox News Wednesday morning. “They have a right to be concerned about the fact that while some leaders around the world are no longer being targeted, one of our strongest allies in the Middle East – Israel – is.

Democrats See Chance to Reclaim Senate Majority Dec 27, 2015 12:14 PM EST By Albert R. Hunt In 2014, Democrats, the majority party in the Senate, had to defend most of the seats up for election, more than a few in unfriendly territory. That year, Republicans took back control of the chamber, picking up nine seats. Democrats are counting on a similar scenario unfolding to their advantage next year: Republicans currently have a 54-46 advantage, but of the 34 seats up in 2016, only 10 are held by Democrats. Any outcome depends on unpredictable events over the next 10 months: the presidential race, whether the stronger candidate wins selective primaries, the effectiveness of some ...

The former reality television star and tabloid king, who has relied on free news coverage and social media to power his presidential campaign, is uniquely obsessed with how the news media portray his events. Trump routinely orders news camera operators to pan the crowds at his rallies to show how large the gatherings are — and then chastises them, with disgust, when they fail to obey. His team has experimented with ...
