US elections - Round Two

Oh, Cruz has just double-dared Trump to sue him.

Moscow's new anti-smoking ads: "Smoking kills more people than Obama. Though Obama kills a lot of people." Good god.

Oh, so Obama IS good for something, after all?

I must say that Trump actually looks presidential onboard his plane.

Someone needs to slap that horrible Cruz down so hopefully Trump will do what he said. He is a complete and utter liar.

Bonny, it is very perplexing to think that Jeb without glasses would be more appealing than with them. Nothing much seems to be helping him at all.

Did you have to post about that smoking campaign? Oh my sides.......

The Guardian have managed to find Russia's only 'liberal' MP (he must be the one on the Soros payroll ) to be Outraged! on behalf of Obungle:

Russia’s only Liberal MP says poster, which has no attribution, is ‘disgusting and embarrassing’

Think he's wasting his time, Russians are not known for their sensitivity to political correctness....

I am still trying to find out why Jeb! did the gun thing, Lily, he's Outraged! moonbats who thought he was an improvement on Trump, and puzzled the firearms carriers, who suspect it was a Christmas present from his mummy....

Bonny, I honestly wish I could help you with a definite answer but cannot right now.

As for the Russian Liberal MP, George and his faithful chums must be scratching their heads raw at the moment.

I should think the Staff of Airforce One are praying Trump wins, Lily. They would have a family that already knows how to get off planes with dignity, and also treats the staff with respect.

I can't imagine The Donald saluting anyone with a coffee cup in his hand....

Iran is projecting power into Iraq & Syria. A victory for Assad is a victory for Iran. Some candidates don’t get it: http://on.wsj.com/1KVmhcS

And maybe the people who actually live there would like to see a return to what they had before they were Freedumbed?

You know, homes, jobs, their lives and limbs, that sort of thing?

That's the best explanation so far.

When he ducked out of that caucus event and had an evening raising $6,000,000 for veterans, you know he would treat those people with respect.

WASHINGTON — A company owned by a Saudi investor works on Air Force One and other VIP aircraft that fly Cabinet secretaries and other dignitaries around the world, USA TODAY has learned.

GDC Technics has been servicing President Obama's jet as a contractor for Boeing, according to the Air Force. This is the first time the Pentagon has acknowledged that a contractor from a business with foreign ties has worked on Air Force One.

The company was bought in 2013 by MAZ Aviation, which is owned by Saudi businessman Mohammed Alzeer. It also has operations in Fort Worth, Texas, and in Germany.

The Air Force considers the security of Air Force One a top priority, said Lt. Col. Chris Karns, a spokesman. The White House declined to comment.

A new poll finds Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton losing to four top Republican presidential contenders, including Donald Trump, in hypothetical general election matchups.

Clinton trails Republican primary front-runner Trump by a 45-43 margin head-to-head, according to a USA Today/Suffolk University poll released Wednesday.

Clinton also loses to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), 45-44, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), 48-42 and Ohio Gov. John Kasich, 49-38.
Her Democratic primary rival, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), fares slightly better against the GOP competition, besting Cruz by a 44-42 margin.

But Sanders still loses to Trump by 1 point, 44-43, Kasich by 3, 44-41, and Rubio by 4, 46-42, head-to-head.

Many of the results are within the poll’s 3-point margin of error.

“Bernie Sanders is closing the Democratic primary gap and is stronger than Hillary Clinton in the general election,” David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center, said in a statement.....etc.

G.O.P. BAFFLED AS VOTERS RALLY TO POPULAR CANDIDATE

A fair summary, IMO, of what is happening in this most unusual election.

In response to the Pope:...etc.

Well, it's not exactly Martin Luther, but we get the idea. I think the Pope's pretty safe, actually, due to the Vatican City having its very own, damned great Wall...

“We went after Iraq, they did not knock down the World Trade Center.” Trump told those in attendance.
“It wasn’t the Iraqis that knocked down the World Trade Center, we went after Iraq, we decimated the country, Iran’s taking over, okay.” Trump continued.

“But it wasn’t the Iraqis, you will find out who really knocked down the World Trade Center. Because they have papers in there that are very secret, you may find it’s the Saudis, okay? But you will find out.”
“But when I look at a guy like Lindsey Graham, you’ll end up being over in that war forever, you’ll start World War Three.” Trump also noted.
Trump was referring to the 28 pages of the original Joint Congressional Inquiry into 9/11, which remain classified and withheld from the public on grounds of ‘national security’.
The pages are thought to implicate the Saudi Royal Family in financing the supposed hijackers in the United States prior to the attacks.

I hope he has very, very good private security, and isn't relying on whoever is provided by Washington.

I have been worrying about that for some time, Bonny.

He might appear to be too dangerous to have around but I hope that will not be the case.

"Pope Francis, tear down that wall!"
#vaticanwalls



Quite - not the cleverest remark the Pope has ever made. People who live in fortresses surrounded by 40-foot high walls really shouldn't, well, pontificate.

And the Pope would have done well to remember that Scottish Presbyterians don't actually regard him as the head of anything, though they have generally stopped calling him the anti-Christ. Or the whore of Rome.

So are we rooting for Trump then?

Not here we ain't, ma petite. LL

I am an interested observer, Sabot.

I confess, I find The Donald's views on many things a refreshing change. He is anti-globalist, doesn't approve of the US meddling in nations far from American shores, was against the invasion of Iraq, etc. His views on foreign affairs are not dissimilar to Sanders, in fact, but unfortunately, Sanders is a socialist who believes in the Magic Money Tree.

I cannot stand Cruz - he really is a maniac, and a religious bigot with it.

Like I said, don't look at what the media CLAIM Trump has said - look at what he has ACTUALLY said. There's often a huge difference.

Also, he's the only candidate who has ever flown over my head.

Good. I have to admit that I am not that keen on him. But that is more to do with his wretched Golf Course than anything. I just wonder who the hell he thinks he is.
