Laugh of the Day: Talk radio in Michigan this morning gets no calls from Democrats because they're not up yet
Just now on The Steve Gruber Show.
Monday, March 7, 2016
Trump is deliberately not countering opposition TV ads on TV, using Facebook and Twitter instead: Huge mistake?
He's also using ads during conservative talk radio programs, but overall his is a very risky strategy which may already explain why Trump is not farther ahead than he should be.
This may spell big trouble, dead ahead.
Facebook and Twitter require active participation. Television is passive and reaches more people. Facebook is ubiquitous but the irony is the owner is the big player behind the amnesty enemy. And Twitter is a sewer dominated by the thug left. They'll never vote for him anyway. At best he communicates effectively only with those who already support him.
Trump is proud of winning on a dime against losers like Bush who spent millions, but I don't think the strategy is sustainable.
This is crunch time, and Trump's not crunching.
Trump still has a big problem on H-1B flip-flop, appearance on Savage Nation today did nothing to assuage fears he's just telling people what they want to hear
Sympathetic critics like Laura Ingraham are exactly right that the time has long since passed for Trump to stop winging it, show more discipline, and spend some money on TV ads.
We're voting for him in Michigan tomorrow, but I predict Trump is going to disappoint us going forward even more than he already has.
It's almost as if he's prepared to hand this thing over to Ted Cruz, who doesn't give a fig for anything but himself.
One way or another, we're going to get the government we deserve, good and hard.
From the story here:
"Furious supporters of Donald Trump . . . are now FORMER supporters of Trump".
Mark Steyn gives Kathy Shaidle a mention on the Rush Limbaugh Show
Quotes her hoping that Trump doesn't turn out like that other Austrian . . ..
The remaining candidates' wives
 |
| Jeanette Rubio |
 |
| Karen Kasich |
 |
| Heidi Cruz |
 |
| Melania Trump |
 |
| Jane O'Meara Sanders |
 |
| Mr. Hillary Clinton |
Does Mark Steyn actually oppose Donald Trump?
It seems so.
He just said in the opener today that Trump needs 58% of the remaining delegates to clinch the nomination, which to Steyn appears to be too difficult to accomplish.
This just isn't so.
Trump needs 53.6% of the remaining, the least of all the candidates and close to his level of support through Super Tuesday.
That's 853 delegates, after Rubio won Puerto Rico yesterday, out of 1592 remaining.
Cruz needs 937, which is 58.9% of the remaining.
Steyn appears to have Cruz mixed up with Trump.
Was that on purpose?
Michigan Republicans boo Romney the "loser", call for his deportation
Byron York reports here:
Trump instinctively sensed that he could bash Romney in Romney's home state with no consequences at all. "This guy Romney came out yesterday," Trump began, which brought on lots and lots of boos. "The hatred he has, the jealousy, the hatred, it's hard to believe."
More boos. "You guys should like him, right?" Trump said. Still more boos.
'Deport Romney!" yelled a man in the crowd.
"Thank you," said Trump.
"Loser," yelled a woman near me.
The anger and frustration did not stop with political figures. A number of people complained to me about conservative media, which they believe hasn't treated Trump fairly. "I'm a National Review reader," said a man who walked up to me during Trump's speech. "I can't even look at the site anymore. It looks like Salon. Nine stories tearing [Trump] apart, man. I don't get it."

Turnout in Republican primaries is nearly 49% higher than in Democrat contests to date
Popular votes for Republicans are running at 10.1 million vs. 6.8 million for Democrats, unless you count Rubio and Kasich as Democrats, in which case Democrats are winning by 35%.
Unify the party you poster boys for prophylactics.
Trump popular vote in LA, KS, ME and KY yesterday beat both Romney in 2012 and McCain in 2008
Trump garnered 230,443 votes in Louisiana, Kansas, Maine and Kentucky yesterday, beating Romney's total in 2012 (north of 174,000) and McCain's total in 2008 (north of 214,000). Ted Cruz received 230,209 popular votes.
In Kentucky neither Trump nor Cruz beat Romney or McCain but together the first and second place finishers yesterday garnered north of 154,000 votes, beating Romney's 117,000 in 2012 and McCain's 142,000 in 2008, both late May contests in those years unlike in 2016.
Turnout in Kentucky in 2016 exceeded 225,000, eclipsing the previous contests significantly. In 2012 turnout was only 176,000, even weaker than 2008's 185,000. Enthusiasm for Romney in 2012 had also been down in Louisiana, where McCain previously in 2008 had mustered 18,000 more votes than Romney did four years later.
In Louisiana, Kansas and Maine Trump beat Romney 2.6:1 and McCain 2:1 despite losing Kansas and Maine to Cruz yesterday, who himself obliterated Romney in Kansas 5.8:1 and McCain 8.75:1. In Maine Cruz crushed Romney 4:1 and McCain 8:1. Cruz yesterday beat the former GOP candidates for president 2.75:1 and 2.2:1 in Louisiana, Kansas and Maine combined.
Despite Trump winning the popular vote yesterday by 234 votes in the four contests, Cruz won 16 more delegates than Trump.
Ted Cruz is a "me too" wall builder and is soft on illegal immigration: Trump's central ideas in June 2015 speech predate Cruz' by five months
Noted here:
Cruz unveiled his immigration plan in November, the first plank of which is to "build a wall that works" — a suggestion that his call for more border agents, surveillance and biometric entry-exit tracking is simply a more sophisticated version of Trump's blunt-force proposals. "The unsecured border with Mexico invites illegal immigrants, criminals, and terrorists to tread on American soil. I will complete the wall," the plan says in yet another nod to Trump.
Not only did it take five months for Cruz to copy Trump's ideas, the only wall Ted Cruz ever mentioned in his own speech announcing his run for president in March 2015 was the Berlin Wall.
Securing the border is just a one-liner in the speech among many other one-liners, and unlike Trump Cruz emphasized legal immigration in the speech, a nod to his long-suspected softness on the issue:
(APPLAUSE)
Imagine abolishing the IRS.
(APPLAUSE)
Instead of the lawlessness and the president’s unconstitutional executive amnesty, imagine a president that finally, finally, finally secures the borders.
(APPLAUSE)
And imagine a legal immigration system that welcomes and celebrates those who come to achieve the American dream.
(APPLAUSE)
Instead of a federal government that wages an assault on our religious liberty, that goes after Hobby Lobby, that goes after . . ..

The Detroit News adopts Mitt Romney's talking points against Trump ahead of the primary, but still won't tell us how it really feels
Here, calling him an opportunist, shallow, delusional, volatile and a fraud.
What, that's all?
How it holds back I can hardly tell!
"He may not be a racist, misogynist, nativist xenophobe. But too often he sure sounds like one."
Come on, why don't you tell us how you really feel, Nolan?
Cowards. Just like Romney.
John Kasich, lunatic Bushie who wants to start a hot war with Russia over Ukraine, Finland or Sweden
From the debate in Detroit:
In Russia, we need to tell them we're going to arm the Ukrainians with defensive lethal weapons. And we're going to tell Putin if you attack anybody in Eastern Europe in NATO, you attack Finland and Sweden, which is not in NATO, consider it an attack on us. And he will understand that.
Representative Dana Rohrabacher (CA-48) says "This is belligerent nonsense".
Momentum for all GOP candidates has slowed since Super Tuesday, but Trump's Mo is still tops
Momentum for all GOP candidates was slowed by Super Saturday yesterday, but Trump retains the easiest path to 1,237 despite a bitter attack from Mitt Romney and the establishment on Thursday morning and an ugly debate in Detroit on Thursday evening.
After Super Tuesday, Trump needed 51.45% of remaining delegates* to clinch the nomination with 1,237. Now he needs 52.57% of the remaining after Saturday's contests. His Mo has slowed by 2.2% but overall remains better than Cruz', who did well yesterday with indignant Christian Kansans and oddball libertarian Mainers.
Cruz has seen his Mo slow the least of all the candidates yesterday, needing 56.67% of remaining delegates after Super Tuesday to needing 57.64% now, or slowing by just 1.7%.
Rubio and Kasich, however, have both had flat tires on their journey to 1,237 yesterday.
After Super Tuesday, Rubio needed an untenable 63.17% of remaining delegates, but now he needs 68.17%. His Mo is down 7.9%.
And Kasich not only had a flat yesterday, his ball joint broke, too. Needing 67.93% of remaining delegates after Super Tuesday, he needs 73.62% now. His Mo is down 8.4%. He clearly sees himself as a monkey wrench, attempting to yet queer both upcoming Michigan and Ohio just enough to set the conditions for a contested convention in his home state of Ohio this summer.
Not very sportsmanlike. But hey, that's the establishment for you.
*Don't forget Ben Carson who dropped out on Friday when calculating delegate allocations. He has eight in his pocket.

Rubio and Kasich both want to send US ground troops in large numbers back to the Middle East
From the debate in Detroit:
BAIER: Gentlemen, the next topic to discuss is terrorism. Senator Rubio, ISIS is a big topic of conversation on Facebook. We have a map that shows the conservation about ISIS around the country. You proposed sending a larger number of American ground troops to help defeat ISIS in Syria and Iraq...
RUBIO: That's correct, and Libya. ...
KASICH: Fortunately in Libya, there's only a few cities on the coast, because most of Libya is a desert. The fact of the matter is, we absolutely have to be -- and not just with special forces. I mean, that's not going to work. Come on. You've got to go back to the invasion when we pushed Saddam Hussein out of Kuwait. We have to be there on the ground in significant numbers. We do have to include our Muslim Arab friends to work with us on that. And we have to be in the air.
And we -- it should be a broad coalition, made up of the kinds of people that were involved when we defeated Saddam. Now, you've got to be on the ground and in the air both in Syria and Iraq. And at some point, we will have to deal with Libya. I am very concerned about ISIS getting their hands on the oilfields in Libya and being able to fund their operations. The fact is cool, calm, deliberate, effective, take care of the job, and then come home. That's what we need to do with our military foreign policy.
Trump 2016 v McCain 2008 through the Super Tuesday primaries: Trump wins by 45%
Trump beats McCain in every state except for liberal Vermont, 3.358 million to 2.317 million:
IA: Trump .045m v McCain .016m
NH: .100m v .089m
SC: .239m v .148m
NV: .034m v .006m
GA: .501m v .305m
TN: .332m v .175m
VA: .355m v .244m
MA: .311m v .204m
VT: .019m v .028m
MN: .024m v .014m
AL: .371m v .211m
OK: .130m v .123m
AK: .007m v .002m
TX: .757m v .708m
AR: .133m v .044m.
Trump in 2016 also beats Romney in 2012 by 33%, 3.358 million votes to 2.519 million, losing to Romney only in Texas (prefers homeboy Ted Cruz) and Vermont (prefers liberals).
Incidentally, despite Romney outperforming McCain overall in this comparison which ought to be a natural outgrowth of increasing population, he underperformed McCain in Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia, Vermont, Minnesota, Alabama and Oklahoma in 2012, an ominous sign for Romney. There was little enthusiasm for the man in too many places, which his recent demonstrations of disloyalty only underscore.
But Trump is crushing them both.
Laugh of the Day: NY Times calls CPAC a "gathering of traditional conservatives"
Here:
As polls showed Mr. Trump likely to capture the Louisiana primary on Saturday, the biggest prize among states holding contests this weekend, the party establishment in Washington seemed seized by anxiety and despair. At the Conservative Political Action Conference, a long-running gathering of traditional conservatives, attendees feared that they were witnessing an event that has not occurred in more than a century: the breaking apart of a major American political party.
CPAC is dominated by a bunch of libertarian wankers who in 2013, 2014 and 2015 picked Rand Paul as their man for president. You remember him. He flew high in the polls until Donald Trump appeared last summer and shot him out of the sky. Before 2013, CPACers picked other well known losers like Mitt Romney, Ron Paul and Jack Kemp.
The only "winner" they picked was George W. Bush in 2000, and we all know how that's worked out.
Everyone has nostalgia for the Reagan years, not the Bush years.
Traditional conservatives emphasize traditions like the church, Christmas, English, marriage between a man and a woman, homeownership, babies and law and order, all of which are expendable to libertarians but are essential to conservatives because they are essential to maintaining continuity with the American past which gave us the nation in the first place.
If conservatism is cracking up in America, it's because of the continuing bad influence from libertarian lunatics, but I repeat myself.
Grand Rapids, MI in February 2016 experienced a temperature anomaly of 2.7 degrees F above normal on average
Temperature averaged 29.5 degrees F.
The very long term mean average temperature in February, however, is 24.4 degrees F using the full NOWdata, so NOAA is saying the normal average is 26.8 based on a smaller data set which does not incorporate the full record available. Otherwise the anomaly would be 5.1 degrees F, not 2.7.
Do these people know what they're doing?
Precipitation was 0.99 inches above normal, coming in at 2.78 inches. The very long term mean precipitation average is 1.76 inches in February, however, not 1.79.
Snowfall was 14.8 inches, 1.7 inches above the mean average of 13.1 for the month calculated going back to the beginning of the record. January is typically the snowiest month at 18.5 inches, followed by December at 15.9 and then February at 13.1.
Heating degree days in February were 10.35% below the very long term mean of 1140 at 1022. Cumulatively for the season HDD are running 827 below normal (4077 v 4904), about 16.9% to date, thanks to the El Nino.
Partly due to the warmer winter weather than normal, my natural gas consumption in February is down almost 26% year over year. But I also remedied an attic insulation defect last summer.
The current very strong El Nino now averages 2.2 on the enso index for four consecutive measuring periods
The 1997-98 El Nino averaged 2.18 for five consecutive periods.
The 1982-83 El Nino averaged 2.1 for three consecutive periods.
The current El Nino is eleven periods long so far, averaging 1.49, the '97 was thirteen total averaging 1.56 and the '82 was fifteen total averaging 1.30, according to the most recent data.
Illegal immigrant flood is Bush's fault, and Mexico's: W's 2008 anti-human trafficking law prohibiting immediate deportation is the magnet
The Atlanta Journal Constitution reports here that Mexico just sends their problem north to us, and Bush's law requires us to waste time and resources tracking down the traffickers, all while it's in Obama's political interests to be lenient:
Fleeing punishing poverty and brutal gangs, tens of thousands of people from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras started surging across the border in 2014. Their numbers fell toward the end of that year and stayed lower in early 2015 before rising sharply again. Between October of 2015 and January of this year, apprehensions on the southwest border were more than double the number from the same period the year before. Most of those who were caught are from Central America. Some are from Mexico. ...
A 2008 anti-human trafficking law — signed by President George W. Bush — prevents the government from immediately deporting them. Instead, the government is required to feed, shelter and provide medical care to them until they can be released to the care of sponsors, who are usually relatives. Meanwhile, the children undergo deportation proceedings in federal immigration courts in Georgia and other states where they can seek relief to stay in the U.S. ...
[T]he government is in a better position to respond to the surges this year because it has opened several processing centers — converted warehouses — for the apprehended immigrants in McAllen, Texas. At those centers, authorities try to identify their smugglers and the routes they took to get into the U.S.
One impediment to building a decent wall to stop this flood is that much of the border land is privately owned.
Now you understand why Trump is talking up eminent domain. Talking about taking land to build a pipeline from Canada to the Gulf is simply preparation for taking land to build the Great Wall of Trump.
Trump is serious, folks.
Tea Party Patriots pat themselves on the back at CPAC in Maryland while Trump heads to Kansas to talk to the people
Noted here:
Tea Party Patriots co-founder Jenny Beth Martin said the businessman "has no business thinking he is Tea Party. Trump is about love of himself," she said. "But the Tea Party is about love of country and the love of our constitution."
The Tea Party in South Carolina begs to differ, giving about equal love to Trump and Cruz.

Bruce Bartlett goes off his meds again
Here:
[T]he system is out of balance, creating gridlock even as the public cries out for action on serious problems such as our deteriorating public infrastructure, epitomized by that in Flint, Michigan. ... The government was shut down, increases in the debt limit are constantly at risk, nominations to even the most minor administration positions are blocked and, now, the president has been denied the opportunity, which is his right under the Constitution, to name a new justice to the Supreme Court.
Let's see.
Incompetent Democrats failed to treat the water of the Flint River properly before tapping it, ruining Flint's infrastructure.
Republicans gained seats after the government shutdown. Maybe they should do it more often.
Republicans subsequently extended the debt limit until after Mr Teflon is gone so as not to interfere with the president's many golf outings and vacations.
The president still can name whoever he wants to whatever he wants.
Meanwhile the public cries out for Donald Trump, not action.
Sorry Sean Hannity, Ted Cruz has no path to 1237
Ted Cruz currently has 226 delegates committed to him. This is 33% of the 688 already allocated in the contests to date.
Cruz still needs 1011 delegates to get to 1237, which is 57% of the 1784 delegates still up for grabs, not 33%.
Ted Cruz is going to ramp up his support by 24 points in all the future contests? I don't think so. Improving his wins by 73% is not in the cards.
Ted Cruz needs to think about an eventual alliance, or hope for a brokered convention.
Michael Goodwin calls Mitt Romney a coward
Here in "Romney is too much a coward to say what’s really on his mind":
Romney wants back in, but doesn’t have the nerve to come out and say it. So typical, and another example of what so many Republicans like about Trump. As writer and Fox commentator Monica Crowley put it, frustrated GOP voters “want a street fighter,” and in Trump, they finally have one. ... [Romney] stood mute as a biased moderator sided with President Obama on Benghazi in the crucial second debate. ...
[W]hat he hoped would be seen as a principled stand against Trump was, in fact, a disingenuous and selfish act. His failure to endorse either Marco Rubio or Ted Cruz is most revealing. Romney’s only hope for stealing the nomination is a brokered GOP convention where nobody has a majority of delegates on the first ballot and he emerges as a compromise. And the only way for that to happen is for both Rubio and Cruz to collect enough delegates so that Trump can’t reach the magic number of 1,237.
Rubio after Detroit debate polls LAST at Drudge, Kasich does surprisingly well
Once again I thought Kasich did himself proud at the debate.
It's sad "adult behavior" like his is now the exception rather than the rule.
In the old days, however, everyone acted like Kasich, or tried to, and they were judged on fundamentals of policy as opposed to behavioral standards which were simply expected of everyone and taken for granted.
Being the adult in the room does not make Kasich right today.
Boots on the ground again in the Middle East is not going to cut it.

Interesting theory from Mark Levin, but it's not at all convincing
Today's speech by Romney was a campaign speech for himself because Romney didn't endorse anyone in it, says Levin. In other words, Romney's saying he's available at convention.
Maybe, but this doesn't explain why Romney didn't move earlier to stop Trump, nor does it cohere with the well known fact that Romney had to be persuaded to run in 2012. He didn't have the fire in the belly then, and he doesn't now.
Jeb dropped out 11 days ago (seems like an eternity, right?), but has been on the ropes since July 2015 when Trump began to eclipse him. That's seven long months ago and $150 million goes only so far. But crickets from Romney all during that time. The establishment hasn't had a viable alternative the whole time, either. Certainly not in Rubio, who fancies himself a Reagan conservative but who has only cozied up to the establishment as a political calculation late in the game.
Romney didn't move earlier because he's always been a spineless coward. He decided to act now because he felt he had enough cover from the many elites who had finally expressed their opposition to Trump in adequate number.
Romney wouldn't fight Obama for a similar reason. He didn't have enough any cover. Republicans have given Obama a pass every single day. Romney wouldn't even fight Candy Crowley. That's because establishment Republicans want media approval. They never fight the media.
Romney is a follower, not a leader, and that's why he's a loser.
But Trump is a leader and a fighter, and he's taking over the party. And he's going to be a winner, and already is.
Wake up people: Trump is outperforming Romney in primaries to date by 1.8 to 1

WaPo story reported here in USA Today.
Trump 2016 trounces Romney 2012 in 13 states which have already voted by 1.8 to 1: 2.5 million votes to 1.4 million
The only state Mitt Romney won over Trump so far is liberal Vermont!
Georgia: Trump .501m / Romney .233m
Tennessee: Trump .332m / Romney .154m
Virginia: Trump .355m / Romney .158m
Massachusetts: Trump .311m / Romney .265m

South Carolina: Trump .239m / Romney .168m
New Hampshire: Trump .100m/ Romney .097m
Nevada: Trump .034m / Romney .016m
The Texas primary was a late primary in 2012 after all other challengers had been vanquished, on May 29, instead of early in 2016. Romney took 1m votes vs. Trump's .757m in 2016. But Ted Cruz has won the Texas primary in 2016 with 1.239m votes, beating Romney by almost 24%.
The Arkansas primary was also late in 2012, on May 22. Romney took .104m votes vs. Trump's .133m in 2016.
Add in these two contests and Trump in 2016 beats Romney in 2012 3.358m votes to 2.519m to date, or 1.3 to 1, which in other words is by 33%.
Mitt. Romney. Loser.
Donald Trump has already eclipsed the total votes received by either Newt Gingrich or Ron Paul in 2012
Trump already has 3.36 million votes in the first 15 contests.

GOP delegate update: Trump 319, Cruz 226, Rubio 110
1237 delegates are needed to win on the first ballot at convention.
Trump is almost 26% of the way home.
Cruz is 18% of the way home.
Rubio, teh establishment mouthpiece, is 9% of the way home. That's why little Marco makes so much noise. He's trying to get attention.
Trump has won 49.73% of delegates to date, needs to capture just 50.13% of the remaining to clinch it
Trump to date has 285 of 573 = 49.73%.
Trump needs 952 more to get to 1237.
That's 50.13% of the remaining 1899 delegates up for grabs.
That means doing only about 1% better than he's been doing.
How hard is that?
Keep stressing respect for law and order in the streets and at the borders, economic growth from new capital attracted to a US low tax haven, and jobs for America's abused and dispossessed working class.
Cruz would have to up his game from 28% now to 57% to win it.
Rubio would have to up his game from 15% now to 61% to win it.
Like that's going to happen.

Remembrance Project says Marco Rubio is the single most egregious promoter of open borders in Congress
A Voice for the Victims Killed by illegal aliens
_____________________________________________________
February 28, 2016
Open Letter to All GOP Voters
Dear Republican Voter:
We write to you today as American citizens, and as The Remembrance Project’s “stolen lives” families who have lost our children, siblings, parents and other close family members to senseless illegal alien killings. To bury your own child or loved one causes a pain beyond description or imagination, and a suffering we will carry every day of our lives.
As surviving families, we ask “Why was this allowed to be done to our innocent loved ones?” The inconvenient truth is that we have been betrayed by politicians who have not merely failed, but who have intentionally refused to enforce our immigration laws that would protect our families. Consequently, the people we so dearly loved have been sacrificed, many murdered in cold blood, by violent criminal illegal aliens who should never have been allowed into our communities.
Sadly, the single most egregious Congressional promoter of open borders is GOP Senator Marco Rubio. As a key member of the notorious “immigration reform” Gang of Eight committee, Rubio’s amnesty plan was hatched, not only to give mass amnesty to illegals, but was done through daily lies about its contents:
· Rubio boldly claimed it was security first - but it was amnesty first, security never.
· Rubio said no amnesty for criminals - but in reality it allowed amnesty to some of the most dangerous criminals in America.
· Rubio said it was the toughest bill ever - it was the worst bill ever, supported by virtually every open borders politicians inside and outside Congress.
Through this process, Senator Rubio steadfastly ignored our families and the warnings of law enforcement. Not once did he reach out to our families, or other families whose loved ones’ were killed by the illegal aliens. In the aftermath of 2013, and even today, each time Rubio has a chance to do something on behalf of American victims, he chooses instead to push amnesty and side with open borders and foreign interests to make life harder and more dangerous for law-abiding American families.
We do not want other families to die at the hands of illegal aliens. We want to end the massacre of innocents in exchange for enriching open border self-interest cartels. We are pleading with the Republican voter: Reject Rubio.
Send a message to every politician in Washington D.C.: if you betray American citizens, you will never occupy the Oval Office.
Sincerely,
Maria Espinoza
Co-founder and Nat’l Director

How about Republicans demand the Khalidi/Obama video from the LA Times, huh?
"Allies of Palestinians see a friend in Obama", April 10th, 2008:
At Khalidi's going-away party in 2003, the scholar lavished praise on Obama, telling the mostly Palestinian American crowd that the state senator deserved their help in winning a U.S. Senate seat. "You will not have a better senator under any circumstances," Khalidi said.
The event was videotaped, and a copy of the tape was obtained by The Times.
Senator Ben Sasse, race-baiting, lying liberal suck-up who believes in amnesty for illegal aliens
Interviewed here:
CHUCK TODD: I believe you are the only Republican [senator] right now who was said you will not vote for Donald Trump under any circumstances...
SEN. BEN SASSE (R-NE): . . . This guy believes in abortion on demand, this guy says that he hates the concept of guns, this guy's been for single-payer health care, he's for a $6 trillion tax increase. ... [W]hen you listen to Donald Trump, all you really hear is more Donald Trump, more tear it down, and a lot of praise of foreign dictators. ... [Y]ou did a great service to people by talking about the history of the Whigs and the Republicans. This is, in some ways, an 1860 moment. ... [I]f this becomes the Donald Trump/David Duke party, there are a lot of us who are out.
Mark Levin's Conservative Review gives Ben Sasse an "A" rating:
Sasse also supports legal status for illegal immigrants.
Marco Rubio violates his pledge to support the party's nominee
