Because everyone was waiting for the wheels to come off of the Trump Express. Now they are getting desperate.

Rubio this morning when asked if he would support Trump if he won the nomination gave a sour face and an "I don't know"

 

[doghouse]

Well that's better than when he said he'd support whoever the nominee was. Progress.

Who did those white supremacists vote for in the last presidential elections? Did they vote at all and/ or are they coming out of the shadows only now?

Fact. The has-been establishment can't recognize that their days are over and will not return. Few voters want job-exporting, immigrant-importing fools any more, The Trump train is unstoppable and has no brakes.

Trump has a vast coalition of disenfranchised voters. Many are disgruntled Republicans that are fed up with lackluster to repellent candidates, a good deal are third party voters overjoyed to have someone defending them from a mainstream party, and there are certainly many non-voters also risen by circumstance to support the best candidate in a few decades.

This may be a plant, who know? Does it matter? I do the Roman salute to my co-workers every morning. It was known as the Bellamy salute when Americans used it while saying the Pledge of Allegiance. There seems to be (((one group))) that is really peeved by it and (((they))) are not voting for Trump anyway.

Unstoppable only if Donald does not inadvertently pull the brake.

The protest/violence angle could be that brake lever

He needs to get out in front of it and actively preach non-violence to rein in the nut jobs. If this festers he stands to lose Florida and/or Ohio.

His "these were bad dudes" bullshit is lame as the bad dudes included women

For the first time, Trump 2016 has taken on overtones of a Le Pen campaign.

Who to choose?

The pointy-nosed preacher?
The 12-year old?
The Ohio one-trick pony?

Vs

The socialist myopic?
The evil grandmama?

Canada has a pacifist, sweetness & light tree-hugging leftist elite who is going to give all that we have away. At least I can go on the welfare and make an honest living now.

This is enemy of my enemy being my friend. Who likes the Black Lies Matter rabble that isn't already a hardened leftie? Nobody. Who, no matter how secretly, hates them? Everybody else.
There was an article explaining how the GWB Jr. election was heavily influenced by spite voting: people hating the sanctimonious leftist celebrities and taking their revenge at the ballot booth. Expect it again. This is why Romney's condemnation caused a further Trump surge. Romney is despised, as are disruptive ignorant teens that really want it to be the 60s again. They are fueling the fire.

This is the real history that schoolchildren need to learn, not some whitewashed propaganda. Ye shall know them by their fruits, and people are sick of the rot of the neocon establishment, which includes Hillary.

 

[Scherensammler]

Well, right now the old GOP/ Democrats are sending a lot of protesters to Trump's rallies.
Why the fuck do African-American protesters show up? They have the option to vote for Hillary, so why risk getting beaten, shot or at least arrested?

I think they need to start the entire nomination process again with a new selection of candidates.
Did Ben Carson endorse Trump as well?

Carson indeed endorsed Trump

Why the fuck do African-American protesters show up? They have the option to vote for Hillary, so why risk getting beaten, shot or at least arrested?

Probably because they are paid instigators, fame hounds*, or would have been up to other criminality that risked beating, gunshots or arrest anyway.
The cavalcade of anti-Americans that claim Trump incites violence is a very clear case of blaming the victim. Oh but their feelz were violated!

This Antifa fruit epitomizes the pot calling the kettle black as he seizes his fifteen minutes on CNN.

Drumpf militia forms to ‘forcefully protect’ rally goers against ‘far-left agitators’

DAVID EDWARDS
14 MAR 2016 AT 12:37 ET

A group of Donald Drumpf supporters over the weekend called for volunteers to join a would-be militia aiming to protect voters against so-called “violent far-left agitators.”

In recent days, violence at Drumpf’s rallies has escalated to match the candidate’s rhetoric. Last week, a man in North Carolina was charged with assault after he sucker-punched a black man. And on Saturday, police in Kansas City pepper-sprayed protesters outside of a Drumpf event.

Hours after a protester rushed the stage at Drumpf’s Dayton rally, a Twitter group called “The Lion’s Guard” called on supporters of the GOP front-runner to join a make-shift militia, according to RT.

“Do you want to provide security protection to innocent people who are subject to harassment and assault by Far-left agitators?” Lion’s Guard asked in a call to action. “If so, you are welcome to join. That’s the mission — to protect innocents who can’t hire their own security guards.”

Lion’s Guard said that their members would be unarmed, “but willing to forcefully protect people if need be.”

“We are *defensive*, *protective* of innocents who are being beaten and harassed for their political views.”

Within hours, the account reportedly had over 500 followers, and members were already asking for “uniform suggestions.”

RT noted that Lion’s Guard later suspended its account after claiming that someone had threatened the founder’s child. But the group also said that a website was being created to “make it easier to coordinate action.”

They want uniform suggestions. Who better to give it to them than us here at DW?

I'll start:

They could have a cavalry unit:

Overalls seem popular with the crowd that I'd expect to join their ranks.

No matter what they do, though, they're going to end up looking like this:

So he's into mature(d) ladies. That might get him votes. Maybe it's a thing in Ohio, I don't know.

Is there any environment where pink camouflage makes sense? The Barbie accessories department, maybe?!

Anyway, as long as they stay away from brown and/ or black their uniforms will be fine.

Is there any environment where pink camouflage makes sense?

I suspect it was chosen in order to blend in among the Che Guevara t-shirts, Soviet flags, and pink hair of the anti-Trump trash. Personally, I see no reason for the Lion's Guard to not wear a normal trash collector uniform, although I wouldn't be opposed to a butcher's apron.

In fairness, Islam largely hates bad US foreign policy of the GOP/neocon establishment, which is oddly aligned with Obama/Hillary's foreign policy.
It's interesting that Col. Morris had a four month span between the time he wrote an NYT op-ed praising and defending Guantanamo as humane to when he resigned because of all the torture occurring there.

Speaking of NYT, they strayed from the narrative here.

Why did God lie to poor Marco? His Papi told Kenneth Corland they prayed for 6 months until God told him to go for the gold. Today, Little Marco said he guesses it was not in God's plan

What a capricious supreme being!

He should have been like the miners I knew in Bolivia who prayed to God and a variety of other pagan entities. When I asked them why they said "underground, you need help from every and any god"
