The Gambit For the Gavel

The U.S. House of Representatives seemed to have turned into a shit-show.

While there are more eloquent ways to express that sentiment, I rather doubt there any more accurate ways to express it but to be honest, things aren’t always as they seem.

On Thursday, January 5th, Kevin McCarthy lost his seventh ballot to become the Speaker of the House. Consistently, he had gotten in the neighborhood of 200-201 votes where he needed 218 to win the gavel. Consistently, there were in the neighborhood of 20 House republicans who simply would not vote for McCarthy…PERIOD.

Here’s the deal…

Nobody could be sworn in as a Member of the House until there is a Speaker of the House, and at that point, we did not have a Speaker of the House. None of the people’s business could be done until House Members elect are sworn in, and without a Speaker, nobody could be sworn in.

By early Friday, January 6th, there had been 12 votes.

Same result each time.

Earthquake in Wyoming – The Geyser, The Geezer And The RINO

Wyoming is a wonderful state and it is home to wondrous things. In Wyoming you will find great expanses of prairies, impressive mountains like the Tetons, geologic wonders like Yellowstone National Park and the Devil’s Tower, a multitude of hot springs, wide open spaces and rivers and lakes galore.

Wyoming is also home to nearly 5,000 bison, roughly 320 wolves, 581,348 people, an old geyser that’s faithful, an old geezer named Dick and a RINO.

Last Tuesday night, the vast majority of Wyoming’s republican voters, which is comprised of 75 percent of the Wyoming population fired the RINO, ended the old geezer’s dynasty and sent a message throughout the land that there’s no place for the old political establishment that has been far too content with going along to get along with a party hell-bent on the destruction of American exceptionalism.

Uncommon Common Ground

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

Lately, I have been regaled with the vile vulgarities emanating from the cult of Trump, as cult 1though they believe that myself, and so many others will somehow be swayed by their rabid blindness and suddenly become as complacent as they, themselves are, and simply out of a mixture of sheer anger and blathering moral bankruptcy, cast our votes for their chosen liberal fool.

It’s not going to happen.

We, those of us in the #NEVERTRUMP #NEVERHILLARY #NEVERBERNIE camp, have something that the cult of Trump will never have…

Respect.

First, we have self-respect. We true Conservatives, have stood proudly and unwaveringly for the Constitution, for the very foundation of Conservatism, for the true vision and legacy entrusted to us by our Founders and Framers and we have steadfastly defended the notion that what is needed, at this most critical of moments with regard to our history and our future, is a true, Constitutional Conservative.

But, far more important than our self-respect…

#NEVERTRUMP #NEVERESTABLISHMENT #GOTEDGO

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

Next week, my state of Nebraska will hold its primary election and on that day, I will proudly nt 1cast my ballot for Senator ted Cruz and in doing so, I will hold my head as high as the day I cast my vote for Ronald Reagan.

We now have a good idea who the nominees will be. Hillary and Trump are currently leading but Hillary may never make it to the nomination due to a pending indictment as per the FBI investigation into her email scandal which involves espionage.

Trump is facing two court actions…Trump University, a scam engineered to line his pockets and a pending rape charge involving a 13 year old girl in a civil action.

This is the best America has to offer?

No…no it is not. We have far better than either of those two festering louts.

We have Ted Cruz…

Trump – Unfit to Serve…Part 2 of 2

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

Yesterday, in “Trump – Unfit to Serve…Part 1 of 2” I outlined several recent events and dic 1Donald Trump’s reactions to them while also touching upon Trump’s more generally known characteristics of being narcissistic, arrogant and demeaning.

But to really, truly grasp the inner workings of Donald Trump’s mindset, which is more psychosis than mindset, we most look at other character traits he possesses.

While Trump’s followers applaud these traits, and excuse them as being not politically correct, others don’t care for his behavioral traits, are annoyed by them, or are repulsed by them. It has been well-known for some time that Trump’s unfavorable ratings were quite high but just a couple of days ago, new polling suggests that his unfavorable ratings have now reached 70% which is historically, a record high since this data has been compiled dating back to 1992.

Before I provide some of Trump’s more basic characteristics, it should also be noted that although Trump is currently the front runner in the 2016 Republican race, his numbers are the lowest since 1980 which, as you will soon see, plays a vital role in his behavior.

Everybody, it seems, has an opinion of Donald Trump, and like him or dislike him…his basic traits are the linchpin which guides all of our feelings toward him.

Trump – Unfit to Serve…Part 1 of 2

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

I believe that Donald Trump is on the cusp of losing the Republican nomination and I psy 1believe he knows it which is why he has turned the blame factor up to full blast but who is really to blame?

Nobody but Donald J. Trump.

Trump’s narcissistic ego disallows any acceptance of self-blame, and his bombast flows over to his followers who have become so emotionally invested in Trump that they simply can’t handle or accept simple facts.

And there are plenty of facts.

Let’s take Colorado as an example…Trump’s followers are all over social media blaming Ted Cruz for Trump’s zero delegates, and they’re acting like this was something concocted BY Cruz at the last minute and that Cruz behaved unethically in winning all 34 of Colorado’s delegates.

Here are the facts…

Why So Grumpy…Trumpy?

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

Oh, my…his Trumpness, lord of the lies, Emperor of the realm of low-information voters gru 1and the bloviating buffoon of bombast is having another bad week and he’s got his panties all wadded up something fierce.

Out of the last 160 delegates, Ted Cruz has picked up 152 to Trumpy Grumpy Pants’ 8 and Grumpy Trumpy is throwing yet another Trumper tantrum , especially over Cruz’s 34 delegate total sweep in Colorado.

Social media is full of angry little low-information Trumpkins who are following the lead of their Emperor in crying foul, that Cruz stole the delegates in the Rocky Mountain state and that somehow, the GOP establishment rigged the process there, and just to squash Trump, Colorado disenfranchised the voters by not allowing them to cast a single ballot.

Dear Trumpkins…that decision was made by the Colorado Republican party…last August…not last week and the rules for candidates, as to how they could secure those 34 delegates, have been public for 7 months. Nothing about it was hidden, and as each state’s political parties can design their own system for the primaries, there was nothing underhanded or unethical about it.

Of course, there are plenty of little Trumpkins out there, like Rebecca Overton-Hooker who are all too giddy to show off their low-information agenda…

I’ll Stand With the Constitutional Conservative

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

A few days ago, I was told, in no uncertain terms by one of Donald Trump’s blind followers to, cru 1take my support for Cruz and “stick it!”

She failed to say where but she was clear in that she simply didn’t want to read the truth about Trump, and in that respect, she is not alone as Trump’s followers just don’t seem to be capable of handling the truth.

I have always said that if one really wants to know what liberals are up to, just look at what they accuse Conservatives of doing. If there is a liberal handbook, I suggest that blaming conservatives for exactly what the liberal is doing is on page one.

Before the final tally from Wisconsin was in, but after it was clear that Ted Cruz would post a double digit victory there, Donald Trump issued another signature tantrum in which he accused Cruz of a crime directly related to this election.

Trump accused Cruz of coordinating directly with his Super Pacs which is in direct violation of election law and he did so without providing any details, without naming any witnesses and without even the slightest shred of evidence and while many regard such an allegation as little more than sour grapes, the incessant whining of one who acts like a 2 year old who didn’t get his way…I suggest there is much more to it than that.

Trump Substitutes Fantasy for Substance

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

While Donald Trump has said that, “I’m capable of changing to anything I want to non 1change to,” is has become obvious that what he meant was that he’s able to pander to whoever he wants to but he has shown, all too often, that he has no intention at all of changing.

Over the past two weeks, Trump has launched frivolous and baseless attacks against Heidi Cruz, the baseless National Enquirer rubbish smelled of his hair gel and Mexican made clothing line,  issued multiple statements regarding his multiple positions on abortion, had a disastrous, nationally televised town hall appearance in which he contradicted himself over and over again while naming education and healthcare as two of the three primary functions of government and had his Chinese made campaign hat handed to him by Wisconsin talk radio host Charlie Sykes.

But change?

No, Donald Trump hasn’t changed one little bit and that is exactly why he got pummeled in the Wisconsin primary Tuesday night. Further evidence of Trump’s inability to change was evident  in a statement released by his campaign after Tuesday night’s utter defeat in Wisconsin…

Snakes, Weasels and Wise Guys

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

One of the most oft repeated things I hear from Trumpoholics is that their candidate will sww 1clean up the lobbyist corruption in Washington because he, Trump, can’t be bought.

I find it quite interesting that someone who has literally financed the corruption in Washington for decades is the one the Trumpoholics say can end it. In fact, Trumpoholics also often spout off regarding their opinion that Ted Cruz is part of the Washington establishment which would put Cruz in league with the ilk of Mitch McConnell and John McCain and the Trumpoholics pin their blind following to the guy they say is the anti-establishment candidate.

Oh really?

The fact is, Donald Trump has, as recently as 2014, financed the establishment ilk of McConnell and McCain in the attempt to end the Tea Party.

While the Trumpoholics condemn the establishment and the corruption of bought and paid for politicians in Washington…they, for some unfathomable reason, blindly follow a candidate who has personally bought and paid for political favors from Washington’s political cartel as well as financed attempts to squash the very movement designed to rid the Washington’s cartel like hold over We the People.

But let me get back to the lobbyist thing…
