United States Speaker of the Lower House and one of the most powerful members of the Republican party, Paul D. Ryan thrust open Thursday the discomfort that many party members are feeling about Donald Trump as their presumed presidential nominee, withholding his support and deepening the fracture between the outsider candidate and the party he hopes to lead.

I must admit, i simply love what Trump has and is about to do to the GOP. My hat is off to him.
May 06th, 2016 - 02:43 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Both the Democrats and the GOP hate his guts. The Democrats because they know they have nothing to stop him with and the GOP because they cant control him. as for House speaker Paul Ryan and his statement that he was not ready to back him I have to laugh as it it has to be the other way around. Trump is not ready to back Paul Ryan.

If Luci/YB were to actually say what his convictions are, instead of just mocking those of others, he might be put into the embarrassing position of having to defend his principles, such as they are.

That's why I think you and Chronic are not the same.
You (YB/Luci) are POSSIBLY a US American and very likely Fredbdc a Washington DC Realtor. His FB site has many male SA friends and he tries to conduct business there.
On the other hand, though Chronic mimics you and speaks like you and echoes you on posts, he has shown he is NOT American, ... Chicago? ...send a car..., ...take you to my club... , bad manners...
Sure...
However, I will admit that I sometimes forget which Troll was speaking, as you do sound alike.
That's why I call voice's puppet, Mimic”.

Demon boy seems to have a phobia with Canadians from what I'm reading on various articles. Maybe I'm just misinterpreting him, but I think he hates everyone. It must be lonely being the fallen angel forsaken by God and humanity. Only a serious sociopath would gravitate to such an icon of evil. Why not choose someone real evil like Hitler or Pol Pot? I think daddy did you wrong as a little boy there kid. There is no way in hell that you are actually an adult behind you foolishly, childish name. For humanities sake, play video games rather than making a fool out of yourself. Your an American or claim to be, do the American thing of late and od on some heroine or shoot up some mall if your so evil.

It's the end of the Republican Party as we know it - and might be catastrophic for the USA.
I hope not.
I predict if he gets the nomination or the Presidency, he'll be assassinated by his own Party.

I heard the Alberta fires could be the costliest natural disaster in history. Good Gov't planning! Ever hear of controlled fires so this doesn't happen?
Stupid Canucks
I find it quite interesting that The Donald was not going to tax the rich during the GOP primaries. Seems now, part of his general election strategy is to pivot and focus on the independent uneducated because now, he will tax the rich. It would seem that we are now at the point where Trumps words form several months ago will be going back and forth like a ping pong ball on a Chinese table.

#37......you left out that the minimum wage he was against in the primaries suddenly needs to be looked at and most likely increased. How many more about faces on his previous positions, when he actually had a position? Sounds like Lucifer.
He will return. In a few days when the ridicule stops. Or, maybe you will just show up under a new name. It's in his DNA to spend his worthless, petty life posting on MP. That's what old, useless people do. I think Satanic Verses would be fitting for him. What was that other patriot name he used? I am sure he is in front of the mirror now practicing for a thrashing on himself.

Trump is a populist so will keep saying whatever people want to hear and they will conveniently forget when he changes his mind or contradicts himself.
It was something that Fred has been highlighting for years until he had his breakdown.
I guess now that McCain has folded we are in the 5th stage of the 5 stages of grief.

You confidence in Trump is cute. In fact I am happy to see you doing your part for the American taliban, so diligently working to bridge the USA to the 11th century. However, let's talk in November.
And all the while Canada burns and for some obscure reason this enamors you, the GOP intellectually burns. What thrills me the most and I will be grateful to Trump for, is the rise of a real 3rd in the works.
A few words of the Donald to make your day
“I have so many fabulous friends who happen to be gay, but I am a traditionalist.”
“My fingers are long and beautiful, as, it has been well documented, are various other parts of my body.”
“All of the women on The Apprentice flirted with me – consciously or unconsciously. That’s to be expected.”
You know the funny thing, I don't get along with rich people. I get along with middleclass and poor people better than I get along with rich people”

You're disgusting

I must agree with Chronic and the lot. It is about time politicians in the USA do what the people want. We need a populist candidate for president such as Trump. Why should South American countries be the only countries to have populist presidents? I love the way and direction of his opinions changes. It's a breath of fresh air, because consistency is over rated.
