Re: Trump 2016

I don't see how this could legally be enforced, but the establishment in Virginia and North Carolina are adopting a new strategy to try and make it almost impossible for Trump to participate in their primaries.

Party leaders in Virginia and North Carolina told Politico.com that they are considering a push to require candidates entering their respective Republican primaries to pledge their support for the eventual nominee and not run a third-party candidacy — a pledge Trump, the current frontrunner, would not make when asked to during the Fox News debate earlier this month in Cleveland.

Republican party officials in North Carolina announced a similar proposal, and told Politico they already are in talks with lawyers to draft language for a provision that asks each candidate to support the GOP nominee.

The establishment is scared to death that this "passing fad" of Trump hasn't passed yet. Again, I don't see how they could legally enforce something like this.

"The ultimate decision, he said, would be made by the 84 members who make up the state party’s central committee, which is slated to meet on Sept. 19. The requirements must be submitted to the Republican National Committee by Oct. 1."

Re: Trump 2016

Guess his ceasefire with Megyn Kelly is over.

Tweet: "I liked the Kelly File much better without MegynKelly. Perhaps she should take another eleven day unscheduled vacation!"



I didn't realize she took an unscheduled vacation. Maybe Ailes had her do so to try and let the flames die down a bit.

I don't think Trump should be re-tweeting people calling her a "bimbo", but I also don't think Megyn Kelly should get off the hook that easy. She purposely was trying to take him down and it wasn't her job to do that. It's the voters decision. I can't stand her. She is purely arrogant.

Re: Trump 2016

Surprise, surprise, Jorge's daughter works in Hillary Clinton's campaign.

The NY Times has a shockingly scathing piece on how latino news media is engaging in advocacy and not true journalism. Unsurprisingly, the overwhelming majority of latino media is negative towards Trump, resulting in very little to no objectivity, even (as the article stated) treating Trump as though he is an enemy.

I'm very happy that Trump supporters are active in social media, because they have corrected many misleading and outright false headlines by the media, pundits and celebrities posting about this exchange.

It's incredible some of the posts in the comment sections on FB. Either people didn't watch the exchange, or they're lying about what happened. Dozens of posts claimed Trump broke the First Amendment and refused to answer Jorge's questions, again, either not watching and seeing that Jorge was allowed back in to the PC and Trump spent more time with him answering questions than the rest of the reporters, or they're just flat out lying.

Jorge was clearly in the wrong. He broke the etiquette and rules for reporters covering press conferences by interrupting the PC and asking a question before he was recognized and called upon. He then broke the cardinal rule for reporters by inserting himself into the story and making it about him.

IMO, he knew what he was doing. He WANTED to push Trump to do something. He WANTED a confrontation so he could hit the latino news circuit and claim he was some kind of victim who was bullied by Trump.

While Jorge doesn't deserve to be allowed at any future PCs because of his outburst, Trump has to allow him and other latino media in and let them broadcast his speeches or PCs live. It's the only way he'll get his message across unfiltered and unedited by the biased latino "news" media.

Jorge was not only acting like a heckler, but also like an illegal alien sneaking over the border. Trump acted like the Border Patrol - Jorge wait in line.
