Politics is a dirty business, played by politicians according to their own convoluted set of rules. That is why it is so hard for a non-politican to win office. The rules keep changing, and the powers that be make sure that the insiders win so that they can all keep scratching one another’s backs.
This election cycle has been a particularly odd one, and the front runner for the Republican party is outsider and non-politician Donald Trump. That is not to say that Trump has been above his own set of dirty tricks, he has masterfully played the press, his opposition, and the public. One does not become a wealthy developer in New York City without gaining skills in the rough and tumble of business and negotiating.
One of the main reasons that Trump has gained traction is that Mr. Average Citizen is sick and tired of the games and cronyism that Establishment Republicans have been playing for years, leaving the average citizen in the lurch and keeping Wall Street and their political friends in the money. So it seems that finally average Republicans will have a say in who runs the show. But wait, not so fast!

WHAT A FREAKING LIE.
No they haven’t. YOU TRUMP FOLLOWERS ARE COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS.
THE CROOK IS TRUMP.
DONALD HAS SAID MORE THAN ONCE HE ONLY RAN AS A REPUBLICAN, BECAUSE HE KNEW HE WOULDN’T WIN THE NOMINATION ON THE SAME TICKET AS KILLERY. TRUMP IS A WHITE VERSION OF OBAMA AND OBAMAS 3RD TERM IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
Actually he never completed his steps to become a site delegate at the county level
If this year would not have happened, I would have never seen the truth either.
MOST people have NO CLUE just how CROOKED AND CORRUPT AMERICA is…..It is sad when these people who are suppose to ENFORCE and UPHOLD the laws and the U.S. Constitution do NOT do their jobs….and are PROTECTED from whatever CORRUPTION happens. THERE are people in *POSITIONS* everywhere that should NOT be there. LACK of TRAINING, COMMUNICATION, INTERPRETATION AND UNDERSTANDING seem to cause HUGE ISSUES throughout AMERICA*****
Nancy Magulias if it was 30-0 against cruz it would look normal to you?
The very corruption that people for Trump are uniting against!
The GOP with its unprecedented tactics against Mr. Trump has caused me to consider voting Democratic, and for Hilary; and switching back to the Democratic Party.
The way I see it, the Leaders of the Republican Party have bamboozled their very existence into near extinct credibility. By purchasing media advertising with headlines like “predatory, and racist”; they have apparently, deliberately, started a revolt against the party by persons like me. Disgusting covers it. A “controlled” convention where the candidate will be decided by “horse-trading in smoke filled rooms” among the GOP “Elites” where my vote doesn’t count will definitely drive me to revolt against the GOP. A quick look at attack ads headlines equate to a shame on the news companies that take money for this type of reporting surely violates multiple professional ethics. This is seemingly all because the Fat Cats in the GOP might have to agree to something, someday when Mr. Trump is elected President.
