Longer Range: Gasbag Trump Loses

Well, The Donald got shellacked in Wisconsin.  Gasbaggery failed.

But that's not his biggest problem.

...What possible reason could a billionaire candidate have to slash staff at a moment when he’s desperate for people to help him organize his battle for delegates with Cruz? Even if he had the nomination locked up, why would he want to shed staffers in states like Ohio and Florida for which he’ll have to fight tooth and nail in November? One of the biggest worries among political pros in having Trump as nominee is that Democrats will run rings around him organizationally, given his strategy of trying to beat Cruz’s superior GOTV operations through sheer media muscle. Now here he is stripping his already mediocre organization down further. Why the hell would he do that?...

This guy claims to be the Smartest Man In The World--yet if he actually wins the (R) nomination, he is likely to lose the general.  And if the Politico reports are true, he could lose the general to Barney Fife or Vlad Putin, or None-of-the-Above.

As any war veteran will be happy to tell you:  you cannot win the war without boots on the ground.  Gasbags don't cut it.

  2. Penny pinching....like how he builds buildings?

    He's playing the short game, which is fine for TV shows.

    If one wants to govern a nation, not so much.

  3. Lots of others don't think Trump is wrong, and they go into more detail as to why than you do.
    One can reach the others by clicking on many of your very own links located on your sidebar......

    It's not Trump vs Cruz at this point, it's Trump vs Ryan.

    The Cruz' "winning streak" is about to end, and in a big way. Wisconsin is the just latest and of the nutter contingent that puts offshoring their own jobs behind "being anointed"

    Trump's deportation plan is cheap at the price.

    Flip flopper Ted Cruz has voted for Obamatrade before
    Flip flopper Cruz originally backed TPA
    It is expected that TPA will be used to approve the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP)
    You can't trust Cruz. He will screw over the middle class.

  4. A few quick notes:

    1) If Gasbag wins NY and CA, it is proof positive that he is just another Lefty. QED.

    2) Read all of Grim's post: he opines that Trump would be impeached.

    3) Ticker has gone anarchist; did that about 90 days ago.

    4) VoxDay is a smart guy. So is Barack Obama.

    5) Until you understand the history on Cruz' Senate actions--which you don't--then you may as well talk about the fine points of harmonics. You don't know what's going on.

    I'll give Trump credit for this: he DID open a wider path for Cruz. There. Happy?
