He sounds perfect to me. Just what Trump wants in an enforcer.
Did Trump didn’t vet anyone or did he he just announc the formation of the Coalition?
But yeah, being the husband of a state rep and thinking it was a good idea to go clear across the country to help threaten federal agents? STUPID idea.
ETA: At the bottom of the Trump link, it does say
So I guess he did have something to do with putting the coalition together.
But it’s just a “vet’s votes” coalition; I predict this will have no effect on Trump’s candidacy.
At the time, Bundy’s goons thought they had won. Trump likes winners. He likes people who win. He wants America to be winning again. Winning is great!
I think Hatch at the moment is one of the establishment frantically running around trying to keep Trump from being the nominee because he says out loud what they all think. Once Trump is the nominee and Hatch supports him, then we can all wish he got pushed out of the airlock of the shuttle without a space suit.
If this is the case, he’s chosen a very poor means of attack. He basically excused Trump for the Duke thing by saying his words were simply a poor choice of an inexperienced candidate.
Yeah, for the most direct definition of “implied” that there is.
Chris Christie is going full-on Patty Hurst. Stockholm Syndrome is a hell of a thing.
Caitlyn Jenner is endorsing Ted Cruz.

Number one, if we don’t have a country, we don’t have trans issues. We need jobs. We need a vibrant economy. I want every trans person to have a job. With $19 trillion in debt and it keeps going up, we’re spending money we don’t have. Eventually, it’s going to end. And I don’t want to see that. Socialism did not build this country. Capitalism did. Free enterprise. The people built it. And they need to be given the opportunity to build it back up. […]
Wouldn’t it be great, let’s say he goes on to be president. And I have all my girls on a trans issues board to advise him on making decisions when it comes to trans issues. Isn’t that a good idea?

No, Cait. It’s not. I cannot imagine a world in which a man who calls himself “a Christian first and an American second”, and summarizes transgender rights with statements like “I don’t want my daughters taking showers with little boys", and who blamed the Planned Parenthood shootings on “transgender leftists”, gives a flying shit about trans issues.
We know there’s a segment of Republicans like the Log Cabin Republicans who feel more strongly about economic issues than they do about their personal, deeply held orientation and identity of who they are. Jenner is doing just that. Apparently, she feels more intensely about tax cuts and theocracy than she does about how, in Cruz’s America, she’s be forced to use the men’s room and treated as a mental patient. There’s no money in Cruz’s budget for trans therapy, just an extra lock on the women’s restroom door for pervert guys!
Truly, it is astounding to see some people take the economic side rather than their own personal one. Either they feel really strongly about taxes or don’t give a shit about themselves
Or they think they’re rich/important enough that they don’t have to obey the same rules as the rest of us.
I can understand putting economic considerations ahead of social ones. What I can’t understand is why anyone would vote Republican expecting them to lower the deficit. Where have these people been for 35 years?
No Caitlyn, absolutely nothing to worry about, nothing at all.Deuteronomy 22:5 The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the Lord thy God.(Might wanna find out just how that whole “abomination unto the Lord” thingy gets dealt with before ya’ vote . . . just sayin’.)
CMC fnord!
I think Trump is right about that.
They say that politics makes strange bedfellows, but they don’t come much stranger than Ted Cruz and Caitlyn Jenner.

Yeah, if we’re going to have a reality show President, why not have a reality show cabinet?
Stone Cold Steve Austin for SecDef.
That Duck Dynasty guy for SecInterior.
