Q&A…Trumpers vs Reality

Posted on by

By Craig Andresen Right Side Patriots http://www.americanpbn.com/

craig profile 2016Over the past week or so, I have engaged many of Trump’s blind followers in conversation via social media and in person. I have tried…really tried to get a handle on their low-information adherence to Donald Trump. It hasn’t been easy, or fun, but here are the results of my efforts.

I decided to ask the low-information crowd what the attraction to Trump was all about and why they felt he was the answer to all their various issues.

Me: What is it you’re so angry about that draws you to Donald Trump?

Them: There’s too much corruption in Washington because all the politicians are bought and paid for by big corporations.

Me: And Trump can fix this?

Them: Yes.

Me: How much is Trump worth?

Them: He’s a billionaire.

Me: How did he make that much money?

Them: He’s a successful businessman.

Me: Does he hire people?

A Foreign Policy Disaster in the Making

Posted on by

By Craig Andresen Right Side Patriots http://www.americanpbn.com/

yah 1Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu had nothing to gain from coming to Washington to meet with Obama and he knew it. That is why Netanyahu cancelled the trip and the meeting. He knows that Obama is all in for the Palestinians, all in for Islamists and all in for the Muslim Brotherhood, which is, part and parcel…Hamas.

Attacks against Israel, by the Palestinians, have been a daily happening since last October because the Palestinians have nothing to fear from their ally…Obama…and they have zero respect for the United States as a whole.

Yesterday, across Israel, the pigs of Palestine struck again, and again, and again… 10 Israelis were stabbed in the city’s Jaffa port section and one American tourist, a veteran, was killed…just a few hundred yards from none other than Joe Biden, who went there to try and mend fences with Netanyahu.

Note to Biden…

One ought not attempt mending fences when the bridges the regime you’re a part of are still burning.

In that attack, the Palestinian pig was “neutralized,” until he was dead at the hands of Israeli police and armed forces.

It was just one in a string of 3 attacks in 3 different cities a couple of days ago with the Palestinians taking advantage of the pro-Islamist, anti-Israel Obama regime and part of what’s been happening in Israel for nearly the past 5 months…attacks which have left 28 Israelis, and some 174 Palestinian pigs…dead.

A Matter of Trends, Numbers and Momentum

By Craig Andresen Right Side Patriots http://www.americanpbn.com/

Ted Cruz won two states in the March 5th showdowns. Donald Trump won two states in the March 5th showddel 1owns. Trump’s camp is happy to say they won as many states last Saturday as did Cruz but that doesn’t really tell the whole story, does it?

Cruz won 68 delegates last Saturday. Trump only won 53 delegates that night and that’s a lot more telling than the two to two tie isn’t it?

But even that doesn’t tell the full story.

Trump under-performed in Louisiana. In polls leading up to that state’s primary, Trump held a double digit lead. It was supposed to be an easy win for Trump and while he did win that state…he only beat Cruz by less than four points. It was close. It was a whole lot closer than Trump wanted it to be and a whole lot closer than Trump thought it would be.

Trump also won Kentucky, but in polls there, before the March 5th caucus, Trump also enjoyed a double digit lead over Ted Cruz by a margin of 35-15 according to RealClear Politics. That was a 20 point lead but on caucus night, Trump barely managed to win by 35.9 to Cruz’s 31.6…a difference of only 4.3 percent.

Interesting, but there’s more to be told before we can accurately see the big picture here.

A Canary Sings – A Goose Gets Cooked

jg 1Hillary Clinton must be sweating like a Kardashian on Jeopardy right about now.

Just a couple of days ago, it was revealed that Bryan Pagliano has an immunity deal with the Obama regime’s Department of Justice to provide testimony regarding Hillary’s private server, private email set up at the Department of State.

This is huge, but before I get into all that, a quick refresher on Pagliano is in order.

Bryan Pagliano is the guy from Platte River Networks who was Hillary’s personal IT specialist. Pagliano had worked for Hillary’s failed 2008 campaign as its IT Director, who had installed a private server at the Clinton’s Chappaqua home and then, in 2009, was hired by Hillary to serve as a “Special Advisor” to her at State where he also became a State Department IT Specialist.

Naturally, while an IT Spec for State, Pagliano also maintained Hillary’s private server at her home which was a rather cozy arrangement.

Okay…here’s why Hillary is sweating bullets…

The Fraud Behind the Curtain

Posted on by

By Craig Andresen Right Side Patriots http://www.americanpbn.com/

dd 1It seems that the dumbing down of America, via decades of liberalism through government indoctrination centers otherwise known as public schools as well as asylums of higher indoctrination, also known as colleges and universities is nearly complete.

No greater evidence of this can be seen than in the results of Super Tuesday voting.

Donald Trump, with the highest disapproval ratings in history, continues to win primaries. The question is…why?

Here’s the answer…

Trump voters simply don’t give a damn about the issues and they don’t give a flying rat’s ass about Trump’s complete, total lack of substance or lack of any articulated plan to accomplish any of the myriad of things he says he’s going to do should he become the president.

Trump voters also don’t give a crap regarding the fact that poll, after poll, after poll shows him losing in November to whoever happens to become the liberal/socialist nominee.

To Trump’s Trump-drunk, low information voters…absolutely none of what should matter…matters at all and don’t blame me for calling his voters “low information voters because those are exactly the sort of voters Trump himself is reaching out to in this election.

Here’s what he said…

Obamacare’s Planned Failure Almost Complete

By Craig Andresen Right Side Patriots http://www.americanpbn.com/

oc 1While everybody remains laser-focused on the 2016 candidates, one of the major issues of this election is, by and large, going unnoticed or drastically under reported…Obamacare.

Last week, Mandy Cohen, a senior official in the Obama regime’s Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, stonewalled a congressional committee regarding the future of Obamacare’s 11 remaining co-ops but she did admit one thing…

That those 11 of the original 23 co-ops are in big trouble financially.

How deep is the hole in which they currently find themselves?

Deep. Very, VERY deep.

In fact, 8 of the 11 could well go under by the end of this year and each of those 8 are now facing either “federal enhanced oversight,” or are currently operating under a “federal “corrective action plan.”

But there’s more…plenty more…

Trump – Clinging to Liberalism Like a Dingleberry

Posted on by

By Craig Andresen Right Side Patriots http://www.americanpbn.com/

ass 1With Thursday night’s debate in Houston Texas, Donald Trump made one thing absolutely crystal clear…that he’s a thin-skinned, inflamed egress on the southbound end of a northbound baboon.

Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio seemed to have taken the advice I set forth earlier in the week, and for the most part, put their petty differences with one another aside and went after Donald Trump to exposed him as the liberal/progressive agenda backing anything but a Conservative candidate that he is.

Throughout the entire debate, Trump steadfastly refuse to provide a single direct answer to a myriad of direct questions and once again, failed to provide a single element of substance to support any single campaign promise he’s made.

Not only that, but mister anti-illegal alien was finally outed, for the world to see, as having hired illegal aliens during the building of Trump Tower and for having had been fined a million dollars by a court for doing so.

Those Who Ignore History…

Posted on by

By Craig Andresen Right Side Patriots http://www.americanpbn.com/

ts 1In attempting to understand the whole Pied Piper of blind sheep phenomenon that is Donald Trump, I have reached some conclusions which, in turn, have led to more questions than answers.

People are angry. I get that because I’m angry too. We’re angry that after turning the House red…nothing happened the way we were hoping it would happen. After turning the Senate red too…still nothing.

We have a majority in both houses of congress and yet those we elected to put a stop to Obama and his socialistic crap have done exactly nothing to put a stop to Obama’s socialistic crap. We elected them to stop government waste. We have MORE government waste. We elected them to strengthen the military and help our Veterans. We still have a military in decline and our Veterans aren’t being helped.

We elected them to not make deals with the ilk of Iran. We have a deal with Iran.

Yeah, I’m plenty mad so I get it.

We elected these people to the House and to the Senate to stop Obama’s pro-Islam, anti-America agenda and to stop him in his tracks on everything from Obamacare to GITMO…from Benghazi to Black Lives Matter and from unconstitutional Executive orders to blanket amnesty and what have we got for our election efforts?

Real Facts vs Transparent Diversions

Posted on by

By Craig Andresen Right Side Patriots http://www.americanpbn.com/

Well, we knew this was going to become the latest attack mode to be employed by Donald tb 1Trump and we knew as well, that his substance-free appraisal would be echoed, far and wide, by the blind sheep who follow and support him.

Now that Marco Rubio has emerged as a serious contender to Trump’s coronation as Dictator in Chief…Trump is calling into question Rubio’s eligibility, and social media is abuzz with Trumpers sharing his latest blather.

Oh, you can scream “CONSTITUTION” and “NATURAL BORN” together in the same sentence all you care to but it doesn’t change one simple fact…that nowhere in the Constitution exists a definition OF Natural Born Citizen. It doesn’t. That’s a fact. Like it or not.

And you can scream that everybody back then knew what it meant and it meant that to be a Natural Born Citizen, one had to have TWO parents who were BOTH citizens but there is yet another nagging fact regarding that misguided assessment…

It isn’t true. More on that shortly.

If They Team Up…It’ll be a Two Man Race

Posted on by

By Craig Andresen Right Side Patriots http://www.americanpbn.com/

As the battle between Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz heats up…amid the battle between the rc 1both of them and Donald Trump with Rubio’s side battle against Jeb Bush thrown in just for kicks…I have a suggestion and a little advice for both Cruz and Rubio.

Before I get to that, let’s take a little stock in both these candidates first and examine exactly what they’re sparring over.

Illegal aliens…immigration reform, amnesty, pathways and anything else associated with that issue. I don’t care what you want to call it but I’ll just shorten it down to IR (immigration reform) and proceed from there.

Let’s just get a few things straight here.

Neither Cruz nor Rubio wants any sort of blanket amnesty for illegal aliens. Neither of them. They both agree that we need to secure our border before anything ales is done. Both candidates agree that we must increase border patrols by increasing the number of border agents. Both men agree that we must engage the laws we currently have on the books and use those laws to the letter of those laws.

Both Cruz and Rubio, or Rubio and Cruz depending on which side of the fence you’re leaning against, believe that anyone who has entered our country illegally, or illegally over-stayed a visa and then committed a crime…must be deported.

There’s more…
