GOP FRONTRUNNER BLASTS LINDSEY GRAHAM, COMMON CORE, IRAN DEAL …
Donald Trump drew a crowd of between 7,000-8,000 people in Anderson, S.C. this week – and drew cheers from them when he ripped their home state U.S. Senator.
“Lindsey Graham needs to go home and better represent his own people,” Trump told the crowd, to wild applause.
Trump has been sparring with Graham in the Palmetto State, where the second-term U.S. Senator is struggling to poll above five percent in his own backyard. Trump? He’s consistently leading the field in early-voting South Carolina, according to aggregate polling.
So much for Graham’s promise to “beat (Trump)’s brains out.”
In addition to bashing Graham (a frequent target), Trump was cheered enthusiastically when he ripped federal Common Core standards – one of the government programs he vowed to cut in previewing his spending plans.
“Amazing energy,” one attendee at the event told us. “I’ve never heard roars like that.”
Education standards are a point of contention between Trump and former Florida governor Jeb Bush – who supports Common Core.
Trump and Bush agree, however, when it comes to opposing the Iranian nuclear deal negotiated by U.S. president Barack Obama and secretary of state John Kerry (and approved by a “Republican” Congress).
“A hundred and fifty billion dollars in the Iran deal – and Obama and Kerry didn’t ask for our prisoners because it would ‘complicate’ the deal,” Trump said.
The failure of America’s leaders to negotiate good deals on the global stage has been a centerpiece of Trump’s candidacy – and he continued to hammer away at that theme on his latest South Carolina swing.
“We can’t go another four years like this – we won’t have a country,” Trump said.
Trump heads to Iowa (another early voting state where he leads in the polls) for an event later this week, and will be in Florida for two events at the end of the week. Expect him to ratchet up his recent criticism of Bush during his Sunshine State swing.

I triple checked the photo…not a black person there.
Shocking!
So far the Democratic presidential candidates are all pasty, rich, and lily – white …in contrast to a rainbow of races represented by the Republican presidential field…
LOL…the man they came to see said…and I quote:
“They are not our friend, believe me. … When Mexico sends its people,
they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re sending
people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems
with us. They are bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re
rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”
Trump is turning out old, white racists who finally have a spokesman who isn’t “P.C.”…let’s see how that works out in the polls for them.
Illegal Immigrant isn’t a race.
‘Murica
No cock sucking perverted homo’s/ queers like you or illegals either.Legal hispanics love him
Ooohhh – T’s off on homos and illegals. Can’t be far from the fecel references.
Typical Republican Xenophobia. Anyone that doesn’t look/live/think like me is despicable. All the while calling themselves ‘Christians’.
Why would a black vote for Trump?He wants em to work and be a father.Ain’t gonna happen.
Classic neo-con racism. If only there was a father in every home then all of societies ills would be gotten rid of. It’s like white people never come from fatherless homes.
Secondly, S.C. is not the only state with black people in it. Yet, we rank consistently on the bottom of everything good and at the top of everything bad.
It’s not race or daddies, it’s governance. If you enjoy living in hog squalor…then by all means keep voting for the GOP.
If I had time tonight to engage with you, I could take your “governance” theme and point our discussion down to the macro level – city governments. Take a look at the “governance” of our major metro cities run by Dems…nuff said there. You’re also playing a little fast and loose with your hero LBJ and the CRA of 1964. Anyone who passed civics knows that Republicans voted voted more heavily in favor for the CRA than did Dems (80% to 63% in the House and 82% to 69% in the Senate). As I think you probably know, it was a little more complex than the numbers suggest – there were Dems fighting for it, and Repubs fighting against it. The numbers, however, don’t lie.
Allow me to retort.
Our entire federal delegation (except for one) is GOP.
Our entire state congress has the GOP in majority (both house and senate).
Our governor is GOP
Most of the mayors in S.C. are GOP
Most of the elected county wide reps in SC are GOP
School boards, town councils…you name it….all GOP majorities.
Columbia and Charleston are notable islands in the stream but hardly indicative of the state overall.
As for LBJ..he began the campaign in earnest following on from Kennedy and this was in a pre-period to the Nixonian “Southern Strategy” of switching the old confederacy from D’s to R’s to capitalize on racist white voters that hated equal protection and fairness for black people.
Understand all, and as I said…it was complicated. It’s never as simple as black or white, R or D (and that goes for debate on both sides).
LBJ was a mover, he got things done
Sorry. you are the one with the incorrect view of the CRA.
Yes, New York and Ohio Republicans voted for the Civil Rights Act. But so did the Democrats from those states.
The key factor is NOT party but North vs. South. All or essentially ALL the congressmen of the Confederacy/Border states voted AGAINST the CRA. It was the congressmen OUTSiDE of the Confederate/Border states that voted for it, REGARDLESS of party.
Back then, because of the legacy of the Civil War, the vast majority of Southern House and Senate members were Democrats regardless of ideology(MOST were conservative though). What few GOP members in the South that there were, voted UNANIMOUSLY AGAINST the CRA.
The voting base of support for the conservative Democrats (anti-CRA) of that era, gradually became Republicans over the next generation.
Sorry, but I’ve got the CRA info down pat. Folks like to oversimplify, usually to make their point or shade a characterization (like the tired old “Republicans hate black people and like pollution” stuff). Cunt’s plainly stated assertion was that the “confederacy/GOP” fought the CRA. That’s simply not true, and even the North-South construct doesn’t accurately portray the situation on the ground in 1964. Only 6 Senate Republicans voted against the CRA of 64 – Six senators does not a Southern “confederacy” make. You are right in that it was a North-South construct, but it’s not nearly as simple as most would claim that it was.
You talk too much….nothing makes any sense. You Dems think you can spend spend spend…it doesn’t work! Obama needs money badly…climate change is all he cares about to help his sweetie Muslims. You need to join them and see how you like it.
Only racists fixate on race.Better to be judged by the content of one’s character than by one’s melanin concentration…
?~?
Or if you’re from Mexico…just ask Trump
Right, because analyzing case studies on the influence of active fathers contributing to social pathologies is the same as taking a “census” at a political rally.
Oh my!
Just like the Democratic primary contenders for President. Not a black person in sight.
Well yeah, I can’t run again now, can I?
The racist, LBJ, said he would have them voting democrat for the next 200 years. Maybe he was right. The few that reach political enlightenment and join the Republican Party are labeled “Uncle Tom’s.” That either coerces them back to the democratic party or makes them closet republicans.
FYI…LBJ steered the voting rights act through congress to allow them to even vote…against stiff headwinds…from you guessed it…the old confederacy/GOP.
Only because the democunts needed their vote.
Are you Jealous?? Have you ever thought maybe they didn’t want to fight the crowd. I am all for Trump, but I would not had made it either. What race am I?
Hint: not white.
LOL
Yellow
Despite general belief, there was a black who appeared in an Elvis Presley film — Viva Las Vegas
My aunt was in the little known movie “Charro!” with Elvis. She was a background dancer, but very attractive. Apparently Elvis chased her around the set for a little bit, but she was a staunch Catholic and he was married- so it went no where.
cool..!!
Guess you missed the black man outside Trump’s last rally talking about why he was voting Trump then?
Lol..they made him stay outside the rally rather then letting him inside.
Was his name Token?
I know a lot of black people pulling for Trump. People of all colors can see how his business acumen could turn our country around.
Business Acumen? He’s declared bankruptcy four times. He inherited a large fortune for a start, so no effort needed there and there are some estimates that indicate he could have grown his wealth far beyond the $8 billion he has with better business decisions and investments.
Bankrupting failing businesses is good business sense and perfectly within the law. He did not file personal bankruptcy. So he used existing laws to his own advantage. Smart man.
He’s really good with using taxpayer money (crony capitalism) for his “business”.
THE MAN IS BRILLIANT AND WILL BE THE BEST PRESIDENT EVER…TRUMP 2016
“Good business sense” is not letting your companies get to the point to where they have to go bankrupt.
HE DIDN’T REALLY…HE USED A LAW THAT ALLOWED HIM TO REORGANIZED HIS BUSINESSES TO BE A SUCCESS……YOU REALLY ARE AN IDIOT TO NOT KNOW THAT….MOST SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS MEN USE IT TO THEIR ADVANTAGE. YOU MUST BE A LIBTARD DEMOCRAP.
What is your claim to fame?
Thsts a few billion more than I’ve got, but he did ok.
I know a lot of black people and not one pulling for Trump. Intelligent people of all colors can see he’s a numbskull, con artist.
Oh, and please, do tell who these “intelligent” types are pulling for.
They are not pulling for you and your shit – asshole.
HEY CUNTFACE……TRUMP 2016 !!!!
LOL Said like a true Trumpista! Can’t believe that there are people THAT stupid to actually think Trump is going to win the nomination! LOL
And. what do you call the Obama group? Gimme a break!
LOL
The bald man standing in front of the stage is white, but behind him is a black bald man standing on the opposite side of the stage. Ooh, he’s probably a security guard.
there was one sitting outside the rally room, but it was just (one) 1 that I say.
They sure were not working were they?? Probably asleep on the sofa waiting for the mailman.
I can think of few places in SC better suited for a Trump rally than Anderson.
Inbreeding capital of the world
Kenya,Chicago or Rev.Wright’s church?
I thought that was Swansea-Gaston area.
Spartanburg?
Walhalla? Ware Shoals? 96?
Now, leave Ware Shoals out of it!
REIGEL RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(or did at one time)
Meh. Let those who have been left behind fantasize about going back in time.
With 72% of all black homes fatherless it appears black children are the ones that have been left behind.
Did Fox give you statistics for other races?
BLS says 51% of black teens are unemployed.They also say that black unemployment is 3 TIMES of white unemployment.
Barack must hate blacks.
Man, talk about warped reasoning.
If Hillary gets her $15 an hour minimum wage, I’m sure many more minority teens will get jobs, ya think?
So your point is that if we got rid of all blacks we’d instantly be awesome at everything again?
Like you care…
I only like blacks when they vote the right way, otherwise look at what I’ll say about them! LMAO!!!
Awesome, the DNC plan is working perfectly.
Plan? Having your front runner indicted for multiple felonies, a communist as the back up and in the whole a plagerizing , brain injured pervert, hiding behind his dead son?
you know, im kinda hating myself for getting drunk and posting i wanted to kill tbillys, that being said, Hillary is not indicted for anything
Excellent post. You sound like flip!
And Webb is going to run as an independent and deliver Virginia to the Republicans in 2016.
Those 100,000 votes Democrats steal around Hampton,Newport News and Virginia Beach won’t matter now. :)
Crazy people driver crazier by a crazy man.
Look at your history, Limbaughsaphatkhunt: LbJ’s 1964 Civil Rights Act was supported by an overwhelming majority of Republicans in Congress. A much higher rate of Democrats opposed it. Sometimes knee-jerk assumptions and. Stereotypes are used as a spin substitute for thinking.
He’s picked up right where Newt left off in 2008. The days of South Carolina Republican Primary voters picking the nominee, are long gone.
South Carolina will Stand For Trump, For They To Are Fed Up With The Democrats Lying To Us, And They Have Done Nothing.
Trump would have a much better position on Immigration and the Latino community if he created a better foreign policy position for the USA and Latin America. We would not need a wall if conditions were better in Central America, where most of these illegals are coming from. The USA has not had a serious Latin American Policy since Kennedy. We need one now. Opening up to Cuba is a good start. Expand that to create local infrastructure (electricity, telecom, roads, etc. ) in Honduras, Belize, etc. will create local jobs and keep illegals at home, where they want to be in the first place.
A good offense will always beat a good defense. Walls like forts do not work in the long run. You have to go on the offensive. Plus, it’s just good business for US to be down there helping out. There’s lots of natural resources and opportunity to expand US businesses into other areas than China.
NAFTA was a complete disaster, (thanks Bill Clinton), we don’t need another one. What we need is US involvement, to block China’s increasing influence on our southern borders. It’s really vital to the US National Security that we move aggressively into Latin America: as a friend and at a profit for all.
