We all rack our brains every day trying how to break through in a system that is completely stacked against us. How could it happen—a political movement that would ignite the imaginations of White America, depose the corrupt donor class in the Republican Party, and begin to really take the country back?

Right now, doing so is a huge uphill battle. The oppressive mainstream media environment is closed to obviously true messages that Whites have interests just like everybody else. Indeed, it is busy tearing down what’s left of traditional American culture. And despite the internet, the mainstream media, including outlets such as Fox News, continues to wield enormous power, and the vast majority of Americans, including educated Americans, accept its legitimacy and moral authority. Despite the First Amendment, we all know that there are a variety of very powerful social sanctions against anyone who contravenes the racial consensus.

Further, it is extremely difficult for a grass roots political process to gain traction in the U.S. where there are two entrenched political parties and winner-take-all elections, with no proportional representation. Political parties need money—big money, billionaire-type money, and they need highly recognizable names — neither of which is typically available to a grass roots movement. Such movements have a hard time getting traction or a sense of legitimacy, and it’s very difficult to get their word out, especially if it contravenes what our media elites want to hear.

But political celebrities have an enormous ability to shape public debate because the media cannot ignore them. The media can and will do all it can to destroy celebrities that err on the side of political incorrectness, but they can’t prevent the message from getting out.

Which brings me to Donald Trump. I have to admit that I have always thought of Trump as a lightweight — just another guy with an outsize ego whose main goal was to become rich and famous. When he announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination, I thought it was just more of the same—another chance to get his name out there, promote his brand (he seems to name all his enterprises after himself, so running for president seemed likely to help his clothing line, golf courses, media enterprises, etc. — except that’s a difficult explanation in light of what happened after his comments on Mexican immigrants). It seemed like the ultimate vanity candidacy. That may still turn out to be the case.

But maybe not. Trump’s statements on the criminal tendencies and generally low functioning of Mexican and Central American immigrants have struck a chord with White America. And he certainly did not fall in my estimation when he attacked two prominent operatives of the Republican Party/Israel Lobby nexus hostile to his candidacy, Charles Krauthammer and Jonah Goldberg. Then there’s the Twitter incident: “I promise you that I’m much smarter than Jonathan Leibowitz — I mean Jon Stewart @TheDailyShow,” tweeted Trump, adding, “Who, by the way, is totally overrated.” It is, of course, considered “anti-Semitic” to ever call attention to the fact that someone is Jewish because of the absolutely outrageous suggestion that the Jewish identity of someone like Stewart/Leibowitz might influence his opinions. As we all know, Jews are just like everybody else.

These are perhaps the first shots in what will become a raging conflagration between the Jewish media establishment and Trump if he continues to gain traction.

Suddenly, Trump is #1 in the polls for the nomination. You can’t turn on a Fox News talking head show without seeing a discussion of the vicious murder in San Francisco, with routine references to Trump’s candidacy. Doubtless great for Fox ratings because it taps into White anger and insecurity in the face of all the changes being unleashed by our hostile elites, from gay marriage, to removing traditional American symbols, to the new housing regulations that will make it more difficult for Whites to get away from diversity. There is outrage at the San Francisco City Council’s lack of action to change their policies. And there is outrage that the Obama White House, which went all in on Michael Brown, Trayvon Martin, et al. (Obama: “If I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon,” not to mention family visits to meet the president) — the same White House that can’t even express its condolences to Kathryn Steinle’s family and sees fit to blame it on the Republicans because they didn’t pass a bill that would have “solved” the immigration problem by massively increasing immigration of the poor, uneducated, and criminality prone, add yet more “border enforcement” that would be unenforced (just like current immigration laws), and by giving amnesty to people like Steinle’s murderer, Francisco Lopez-Sanchez. And of course, even some Republicans are making the same argument, notably Marco Rubio.

But none of this sudden publicity about illegal alien criminality would have happened without Donald Trump. Horrifying crimes by legal and illegal immigrants against Whites and other traditional American people happen all the time. But like Black-on-White crimes, they get no national coverage. (Breitbart reports that “Thanks in part to deadly ‘sanctuary city’ policies, 347,000 convicted criminal immigrants remain at large in the U.S. — and illegal immigrants accounted for 37 percent of all federal sentences handed down in 2014.”) There is local coverage of illegal alien crime (typically without mentioning immigration status or race of offender) and there are notices on a few conservative-oriented websites that are outside the mainstream and have minuscule readership compared to the mainstream media. And while illegal immigrant crime has sporadically been discussed on Fox News (here’s a Fox story from 2014 on two Sacramento policemen killed by a twice-deported illegal alien—a story that probably very few remember), they are unable to ignite a national discussion to the point of influencing electoral politics. The same for the wonderful book, ¡Adios America!, by Ann Coulter.

But because of his celebrity status, Trump managed to get the criminality of illegal aliens on the national agenda. Even the New York Times covered it. And because of his wealth, he could run a viable presidential campaign without tapping into the billions of Sheldon Adelson, Larry Ellison, Norman Braman or the rest of the Republican Jewish Coalition as Marco Rubio (among others) is doing and by making war with Iran the most important question for Americans to decide in the 2016 election. Incidentally, Rubio agrees with the Democrats that passing the Gang of Eight immigration amnesty/surge bill would have prevented the Steinle murder (despite the fact that that bill would have lavishly funded sanctuary cities).

Which means that Trump could attempt to run as an independent on issues like displacement-level immigration, opposition to free trade, and national sovereignty. Such a campaign would resonate with a very large segment of White America, and it would certainly dash the hopes for anyone else the Republican money decides to nominate (including the despicable Jeb Bush who said that he took Trump’s comments personally because of his Mexican wife and Mestizo children).

What the establishment fears most is a highly visible, personally attractive, honest, populist candidate who cannot be shut out of the media and with enough money to run a viable campaign. It happened in 1992 with the candidacy of Ross Perot, and it is quite possible that such a candidacy would just make it easier for Hillary (adjectives for Hilary fail me) to win. But the choice between Jeb et al. and Hillary is really no choice at all given that the neocons have pretty much all of them in their thrall, and they basically agree on key issues for Whites like immigration (with the possible exception of Scott Walker). And that would pave the way for a new political party after 2016 that would begin to address the interests of the traditional American people.

In any case, the Republican Party, the party of big business and the Israel Lobby, richly deserves to die unless it can appeal to the legitimate interests of its base—White America of all social classes, both sexes, and all age groups — all of which voted for Romney even though he hardly represented their interests.

Obviously, Trump may be a false hope. But there certainly are other Whites who could undergo a conversion experience and use their celebrity status, and their money (or could attract enough money—a Charles Lindbergh-like figure comes to mind) to make it happen. It’s not over until it’s over.

The reason many 'conservatives' believe Trump is fake is because he is saying exactly what they want to hear.

For all we know, the attacks on Trump from elements of the Yankee PRC (Predatory Ruling Class) are actually intended to boost his stature in the eyes of the good folk of the American heartland. Could Trump be a plant sent to keep relative "outsiders" like Rancid Paul and Ben Carson from gaining any traction in the early GOP primaries, thus handing a rigged game to the CIA's Jeb Bush? Or, could Trump be positioning himself for a third party run with the intent of splitting the GOP and installing Killary in the White House?

I can't believe that Kevin M. is taken in. Please don't be, 4umizers!!

"The reason many 'conservatives' believe Trump is fake is because he is saying exactly what they want to hear" -- not necessarily. I call fraud on him because talk is cheap, he's filthy rich, and he's got such a history as a Clinton- loving liberal.

In short, ALL we have is his recent statements about immigration. Where the aitch is he on anything else? Foreign aid? War? Welfare? Bringing Clintons and Bushes to justice???

How DARE you question Donald Trump - THE AUDACITY!

Walp .. he's donated heavily in the past to both Bill AND Hillary, AND the Democraps.

How many tens of thousands of illegal aliens have built his real estate for him? A billionaire's gotta make a profit somehow.

Donald Trump = Ross Perot redux, so Hillary can win.

If you think I'm wrong, you are either too young to remember the 1992 election, or are too optimistic.

This is EXACTLY the same thing that happened when Bill ran against Bob Dole.

Regardless of what you think of Trump, he has achieved his first objective -- dominating the News Media and pushing all of the other GOP contenders out of the spotlight. Whether you watch Fox or MSLSD, it's Trump, Trump, Trump.

Good one, but Trump was also a Democrat; donated money to Hillary's Senate campaign; was pro-choice; promoted a single payer socialist healthcare system; and favored a draconian "one time" wealth tax, which would have wrecked the economy and caused successful people to flee the country.

I am sure you can see why people would be skeptical.

By Kevin “Coach” Collins

The large turnout Donald Trump was able to draw on Saturday in Arizona is a sign of something; but what?

Is it a sign that a showman can draw a crowd on any given day? Is it a sign that the Republicans are now split in such a way that the Democrats can coast into the White House next year? Is it a sign that we, as a people, are moving closer to the “enough!” tipping point necessary to move us to action?

I favor the latter. Yes Trump has been, and remains a man who is primarily for Trump. He carried on a charade four years ago that I must admit fooled me into thinking he was more than he actually is. Nevertheless, soon he will formerly announce his candidacy for the Republican nomination for president and maybe even believe what he says for a while. That is actually immaterial because what he is doing now has started a fire that is burning away the tall grass that so many – well almost every other – Republican pretender to the throne has been hiding behind.

If Donald Trump continues to talk about immigration as he has thus far it will defeat the combined efforts of both wings of the Uniparty that has captured control of our lives and made election results meaningless. Both the Republican and Democrat wings of the Uniparty really wants open borders. The Republican wing supports open borders because they have been bought and paid for by the US Chamber of Commerce. The Democrat wing wants illegal aliens because their votes will keep them in power for generations. Neither wing cares about us.

They are joined in their contempt for America’s future by the media and the Court. The average American knows this and has grown increasingly frustrated that not even one candidate is articulating our fears and dread about the future, let alone proposing to do something about them.

Donald Trump has recognized this. He is pointing his finger at the power structure and saying out loud, “You have lost the support of the governed.” By doing this he has pushed the wave of “enough!” closer to critical mass.

How long Trump stays around is not as important as his having started a conversation that will only become more urgent when the rest of the fakes and frauds try to ignore it.

We are a great and resilient people. We are just waiting to get back to the America we know will guarantee our children’s future. We know that, regardless of “push poll” results to the contrary, illegal immigration is the number one impediment to that dream.

Donald Trump is talking about illegal immigration. He will force others to expose themselves on this issue; and for this we should be grateful. He is helping us get to “enough!”

You're probably right. In any case I suggest that everyone check out Justin Raimondo's latest column on Antiwar.com. His observations concur with yours:

Marxism: steal everything
Keynesianism: steal by counterfeiting whenever needed

Trump is a $9 billion dollar enterprise headquartered in NYC. Hillary was a Senator from NY x 8-years. All corporations grease the skids of politicians, both Rs and Ds. His contributions to Senator Clinton were the cost of doing business in NY.

"Boobie"? It is clearly a ball and chain, like prisoners who spent the day breaking rocks were supposed to wear. Note that the shackle is broken.
