That is a key point. Carson doesn't want to reduce government, he thinks that bigger government, under his leadership, will be better. Same thing for Trump.

THAT is clearly the establishment Rosetta Stone.

Conservative and anti-establishment voters want LESS government. Trump intends to grow the government, but it will be terrific, okay?

Once we are done replacing our political hacks with people who know what they're doing, hopefully the media will begin to build that inner integrity again which has been lost due to our corrupt system.

Will they be working hand in tiny hand to make America Donald Trump worthy? Fruit Salads for EVERYONE!!

And yet your posts lacks ANY substantive information. You attempt to inoculate yourself against criticism by proclaiming it "sad" (who can criticize someone so compassionate as yourself?) but then offer only the most superficial of analysis to support your comment. (Really?! It's the way he pronounced a word?!)

Sort of makes you a dud.

Whoever said Trump would pick good people is insane. Carson is an idiot on education.

Thank you for the reminder that many leftists consider comedy shows to be legitimate news sources.




Here's another good one:

I'm glad they were able to catch him in time to make his endorsement!

Hahahahaha. Dumb and Dumber for sure. If I didn't think Trump would burn down the US; I would definitely vote for him just to see the sh*tshow.

That poster is smart and he is not alone in his opinions.

Because that is DEFINITELY the person you want running the Dept of Education. Or is Trump going to abolish that too? I can't keep up with the crazy.

Even if you're opinion is the voting public is unqualified, for whatever reason, it is the right of the people to vote and decide.
The people who say you should hold your nose and vote for the interest of the party are now in the position to do just that. The leaderships is rejecting their own advice.
I do pretty much feel the majority voting public is now so ignorant as to be unqualified, I just don't think there's a good alternative to our current system.

I think the take away from that entire article is best summed up by a reader comment.


LAZY* endorses CRAZY! *as in the sleepy guy not as a racist dog whistle where most of you first jumped to.

But of course yes, just waiting for the media to start throwing the Oreo card, Ben just can't be a person he has to assume the "toy" position.
He would be good at almost any position: my bet would be Surgeon General. And what do you bet Trump has not promised that to him?

Basically the best thing he can say about Trump is that Trump isn't really Trump.
