Trump chose these people. No one made him bring on Steven Mnuchin or Reince Priebus or Nikki Haley or Cohn. None of these people, prior to 2016, offered any hints of receptivity to his agenda—quite the contrary. Why should anyone be surprised if they or their staffers aren’t magically converted now? The pool of halfway-qualified populist-nationalist candidates may be small, but there’s a wide gulf between settling for next-best and swinging over to the opposite extreme.
Why campaign like Pat Buchanan if you staff up like Jeb Bush?
It’s always the same old story with Trump. Like the cartoon of an oil prospector propelled into the air by a sudden gusher, Trump was knocked off his feet by the power of his own message. But he never knew what to do after that—except repeat himself. The man who insulted Goldman Sachs and Saudi princes and promised infrastructure and walls instead hired Goldman Sachs, did the bidding of Saudi princes, and stuck to tax cuts.
As a message and a brand, Trump still embodies rebellion, but in concrete policy he’s closer to Paul Ryan. Trump’s staffers may think that it’s thanks to their subversion. But it’s more likely thanks to their boss.
An email chain among senior Google executives from the day after the 2016 presidential election reveals the company tried to influence the 2016 United States presidential election on behalf of one candidate, Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton. - In the emails, a Google executive describes efforts to pay for free rides for a certain sect of the population to the polls–a get-out-the-vote for Hispanic voters operation–and how these efforts were because she thought it would help Hillary Clinton win the general election in 2016. - She also used the term “silent donation” to describe Google’s contribution to the effort to elect Clinton president.
* The main email, headlined, “Election results and the Latino vote,” was sent on Nov. 9, 2016—the day after Clinton’s loss to Trump in the 2016 presidential election—by Eliana Murillo, Google’s Multicultural Marketing department head. > The four page email begins with Murillo claiming she and others at Google were engaged in non-partisan activities not designed to help any one candidate or another—only to undercut her own commentary in later passages in the emails by openly admitting the entire effort to boost Latino turnout using Google products with official company resources was to elect Clinton over Trump. < The critical miscalculation, Murillo wrote in a stunning admission in the email, was that Latino voters backed Trump by higher margins than any experts had forecast in the lead-up to the election. > Trump’s 29 percent among Hispanics nationally blew prognosticators away, and he hit even higher numbers—about 31 percent—in the key battleground state of Florida, Murillo admitted.
>I use to hear my name get called at work and every time I would turn to look no one was there.
That happened to me over, and over, and over, then one day I caught the guy that was doing that. He thought it was real funny until I caught him.

Statistically, O'Rourke shouldn't win. Cruz has no hidden skeletons and Texas isn't blue yet. It will be extremely suspicious if somehow O'Rourke pulls out a victory.

Does the same apply for Trump?
Ryder Perez
Cruz is winning Hurd's district, he's likely winning by double digits in all of Texas.
Christian Edwards
Can you imagine how difficult it is to find someone with a working knowledge of politics, because they have been in politics for years; and is also an honest man?
I say it can't even be done. They are all crooks.
Hunter Roberts
Trump actually won less than 24% of Hispanics nationally but won 36% of them in Florida.
Ryder Hernandez
>I say it can't even be done. They are all crooks. Doesn't mean the one man who could have been honest had to go ahead and hire said crooks that are going to be his downfall.
Jonathan Perry
Does what apply?
Jack Bailey
For now he's overperforming Trump's result in 2016 by 10 points. If this result holds (it could still change, the poll is not over), it means that Cruz is probably tied or beating Beto among spics
I'm not going to give you a list. You know the names already but want to play stupid.
Not if he keeps taking the advice of bad actors and green lighting their worse impulses.
Blake Williams
63% of voters will be white this year in Texas. I doubt Cruz will win less than 70% of them.
Matthew Brooks
Instead of consulting Rinsed Penis he could've gone to Pat Buchanan, Jeff Sessions and maybe other rotten figures from Goldwater era?
It's just a heavy streak of people doing 'his' policy that aren't exactly for his policy. It stops being "random" at some point when it's time after time. At least NSC and Miller are [spoiler]based and redpilled[/spoiler]
Jordan James
>Doesn't mean the one man who could have been honest had to go ahead and hire said crooks that are going to be his downfall. Strange if I remember correctly before Trump ever announced a single cabinet pick he had open applications and interviews for anyone who was interested to work in his administration. It was even open to those who never worked in government, just look at Dr. Carlson, The Mooch, and Omarosa. But very few people took Trump up on the offer and most was swamp rats looking for a way in to influence his opinions.
Matthew Allen

To get some long term changes, Trump needs to build bridges with the GOPe.
Brayden Jenkins
did the site just fuck up for anyone else? got a 502 error and then a 523 error in the span of 20 minutes, they were really short though
Caleb Powell
Sessions is pretty much the biggest pause in the Browning of America, which was implicitly Trump's campaign promise. Him and Miller are the best choices he made.
Carter Martinez
>>I don't have an answer so I'll bullshit instead That's exactly what you just did yourself. Tell me who these bastions of America First are exactly in that cabinet. I'LL WAIT. Sorry none of you early morning shift retards can take zero criticism, as usual. >Trump needed to build briges witht he exact people that never wanted So instead he just became them.
Justin Anderson
Sessions is the only reason Trump's admin is on a pause at all. If it wasn't for Sessions incompetence Trump could be attacking congress every day for immigration reform. Instead he has to deal with the Mueller distraction.
Dylan Myers
Give me your list of American First people that could run in the admin.
Camden Martin
Trump needs to limit legal immigration and seal the Southern border for good. Then he can let ICE do theor work and America's demographic change would be limited to - 1% white every decade.
John Hall
> Somehow Mueller is stopping Trump from pushing for Immigration reform lmao what
Easton Moore
Sessions isn't doing Trump's agenda he's doing Sessions agenda, and that's following the law as he inturppt's it. He's only interested in enforcing laws on the books. He's not there to shake anything up.
Isaiah Brooks
>Finkike Whoa..
Landon Perez
GOP, which has him staffed, wont allow for that either.
Yes it does actually, and they have not been his downfall, they are only dragging themselves down. Like me, Trump is an honest man, so naturally he never trusted them, but he did have to use them to get things done. Even an exceptional man has to have help for things that are too big or too time consuming for one man to do alone.
Trump is a great manager. That is what a leader is, a manager of men.
During the campaign, Candidate Trump stated in plain language that he was amazed at what two faced liars the professional politicians of Washington DC are, and nothing has changed except that President has fired some people, and some of them are going to jail.

Turtleman is responsible for every Trump judge. >inb4 WHO CARES ABOUT JUDGES FUCK THE SYSTEM

I'm not a member of the tribe so I might be wrong, but isn't that a regular candle holder an not a menorah?
Justin Baker
It's kinda sad how you can see that Trump really loves New York but New York really hates him
Jordan Long
It's also alarming how many at least in Twitter are yasss slayyyyyyyyyyying someone like Lindsey Graham who undermines Jeff Sessions. The only effective change is a cuckier AG, definitely no "lock her up" and even more browning if Sessions is removed. He is near critical for Trump's anti-immigration platform and only person I know of with equal hard stance is Miller who can't really be AG.
And maybe Kris Kobach, but we must remember Sessions supports 1924 immigration policies, I think even KKK might come short.
Brandon Collins
Only NYC core hates him. LI and upstate love Trump.
Jack Price
You mean those same judges getting held up besides the SC? Try harder or ask for a paid internshp instead of working for free.
Elijah Sanchez
>Kris Kobach Who should have actually had a place in this administration besides what these fucking morons think passes for an acceptable pick. This place is so astroturfed it's not even humerous, it's fucking sad.
McConnell has passed so many judges already that Trump will be record holder for the next 100 years.
Justin Phillips
Anybody have the gif of the dabbing pickle ricks and reddit black lives matter shirts
Landon Perez
It is, though there's definitely a minority that loves him. He did win the primary by a landslide after all. He's also rebuilt tons of historic landmarks and literally beaten up criminals. Real New Yorkers probably love the guy.
kudlow says the trump economy may be one of the greatest stories never told
Gavin Davis
>The only effective change is a cuckier AG That's an opinion. When Trump replaced his CoS (Kelly for Priebus) that was an upgrade. When Trump replaces his SoS (Pompeo for Tillerson) that was an upgrade. It's mere opinion that Trump couldn't find someone even more diligent and competent than Sessions.
Hudson Reyes
nah i swear you linked the video you just posted weeks ago
Christian Collins
unfortunately this is my first trip back to /ptg/ in quite some time, unless someone else had my idea, which is entirely possible.
Jack Baker
If he did so be it, I'm just saying he could have surrounded himself with people that would have had his back, not stab him in the back and make him think he's doing a good things that support their neocon agenda and more. Nobody ever said though that conservatives know what winning even looks close to though so that's that.
Jack Lopez
I agree.
Isaiah Jenkins
>unless someone else had my idea, which is entirely possible. that happens from time to time, I've been away for the last month or so-summer brings out the worst posters and nothings been happening
>he could've gone to Pat Buchanan, Jeff Sessions and maybe other rotten figures from Goldwater era?
He could have gone to the guy that talked a good game and was a DA, Trey Gowdy, but apparently he turned Trump down; which was just as well because it has become obvious that Gowdy is a member of the Washington DC swamp, he is all talk and no cattle when it comes to prosecuting criminal politicians. He is the one that let the big one off the hook-- Hillary in the Benghazi hearings.

Thanks blacks, good to know I'm good to go.

No, in order to achieve changes in Washington DC, Trump has to endorse the candidates who are supporters of the Trump Agenda, and replace the RINO's who are helping their fake opposition to obstruct the agenda.
Noah Carter

Fun fact: an army of well funded, well organized jew shills patrol the internet in effort to shut down any counter-jew discussion and to promote the globalist anti-white jew agenda.
archive.is/sMsxH >Israel’s Online Shadow Operations >Numerous well funded, organized projects by and for Israel work to flood social media with pro-Israel propaganda, while blocking facts Israel dislikes. The projects utilize Israeli soldiers, students, American teens and others, and range from infiltrating Wikipedia, Reddit and Jow Forums to influencing YouTube.
