The late famed Pulitzer Prize winning columnist, William Safire, called Hillary Clinton a congenital liar. (a condition from birth due to heredity or environmental aspects.).  This was back in Bill Clinton’s early years.  Nothing has changed. Change positions on issues to fit current conditions…no problem.  Talk with a Southern accent when speaking in the Southern States… fine and dandy…lie under oath while speaking to a Congressional Committee….a breeze.  Telling family members a video caused the deaths of four Americans from an attack at Benghazi….oh, why not.   That very night she told Chelsea and Egypt’s Prime Minister it was a direct Jihad attack.  Nothing about a video.  Shameless.
NBC/Wall Street poll says 27% think Hillary honest and straight forward.  53% say no. The rest?  Well you can guess how much they know about anything.
And yet, same poll, she would beat Donald Trump if the election was today. Dr. Carson would beat her by 10%….Rubio beats her by 5%…Cruz beats her by 3%.  Trump loses by 3%.  Why?  Because Trump would lose the vast majority of Hispanics  (ship them all back to re-enter if qualified…absolute nonsense.)  Black vote?  Forgetaboutit.  Women’s vote…no way.  Trumps fanatics are largely white males and a smattering of others.  Fortunately, in spite of what he says, Trumps numbers are fading or stagnant while Rubio is showing large gains.  Trump’s act is getting stale.  He should zero in on Hillary…
not his fellow nominees.  He is hurting them.
Back to Hillary.  She has the Democrat nomination except for one thing she can’t control.  The FBI investigation with Director Comey actively engaged.  Two solid sources have leaked to author/pundit, Monica Crowley, that 671 of Hillary’s emails contained classified material. Four emails are “extremely problematic.”  Two of those four reached the highest classified designation. And, one of those two contains satellite data about North Korea’s nuclear weapons program.  This document is an open and shut violation.  Clinton faces gross negligence of handling classified data.  And, obstruction of justice.
The FBI will bring those charges to the Attorney General of the U.S. Loretta Lynch.  It’s likely Obama will tell her what to do. Nothing. However, the charges made public will create havoc for Hillary.  Good chance it will cost her the election assuming Trump won’t be the nominee.  The Washington Post is all over this story.
The next Republican debate is Tuesday, Nov.10th on the Fox Business Network. Headlined by Neil Cavuto and others.  And if there is a more gorgeous questioner at Fox than Trish Regan, I’d like her to step forward.  Times are 5PM Central time for the “under card” and the main event set for 8PM Central time.  Unfortunately, fast gaining momentum, Chris Christie will
not be on the main event because his poll numbers were too low in the average of the polls taken. And yet one poll used did not have Christie listed in that poll.  His New Hampshire numbers are good and growing.  He’s competitive.  A former prosecutor turned
New Jersey Governor, Christie is smart, very fast on his feet and knows how and when to strike. He and Carly Fiorina would be Hillary’s worse nightmare.   Instead we get going no where Rand Paul.  He’s as dead in the water as Jeb Bush.
Always surprises in Iowa and New Hampshire….New Hampshire more important.  Here’s the latest New Hampshire poll numbers.
Trump..18%..Carson..15%..Rubio..9%..Christie, Kasich and Bush..8%.    Rand Paul at 3%.
A word about the new Speaker of the House Paul Ryan.  Easily the best choice.  Laying out legislation for ALL House members.  Ryan has unquestioned integrity, vision, tenacity and smart as they come.  Boehner, a good man, was not a public fighter and “out of gas.”
And keep this in mind.  Forget all the polls at this time.  They don’t win elections.  It is won by State by State primaries. Trump, the man with “the mouth that roars”  is no shoo in.  History shows New Hampshire is full of surprises.
Trump may get the surprise of his life.
I shall be more active on my blog, www.Jacksjargon.com. This blog will be posted soon. Stayed tuned.  Politics and NFL wagering…tons of American fun.
All the best,

Same old Trump.  Always trying to tear down a fellow candidate.  Now it’s Rubio.

As Speaker of the House in Florida, Rubio had an American Express card to use for

State business.  Somehow it appears he used it for a personal reason and quickly paid the money back.  This is old buried news in Florida.  Rubio is now releasing all info pertaining to this issue.  This is nothing compared to Trump’s bankrupting 3-4 of his businesses.  Mr. perfect is not perfect.  Trump has no idea how to ship all eleven million+ illegals back to their native Country.

What’s he going to do…pull people out of their houses in to what?   Busses?  How do you find them all?  At what cost?   And, wreck families.  All this nonsense has done is for the GOP to lose the Hispanic vote.   It would never work.  It will never be done.

New poll shows all the leading candidates would beat Hillary.   Except one….Donald Trump.

“Donald Trump is an ego driven maniacal maniac. Trump is not
the same as the idea’s of Donald Trump.” Bobby Jindal,
Presidential candidate and Governor of Louisiana
Says Trump….:”Look at that face (referring to President
candidate and a woman Carly Fiorina). Would anyone vote
vote for that? Can you imagine that the face of our next President?”
Now he claims it was her persona. Baloney.
Don’t get me wrong. I have enjoyed watching and hearing
Trump. He can be fun and compelling.
Fox News senior editor/commentator Brit Hume says at times he simply
can’t stop listening to him. In his office, he says,
he’ll hear Trump’s voice on TV, glance up and is enthralled hearing what
he has to say until Trump is done.
BUT, on a later day, Hume goes on to say after the Fiorina
comments…..”Is this the behavior of a strong and confident man
prepared to be the leader of the free world?
Or is this school boy stuff? Sounds like a boorish sexist taunt from
somebody who has not grown up.
And there it is for so many taken by this man. And it’s not
just the no nothings and the semi no nothings, there are many
otherwise smart people backing Trump. It’s much like a cult following.
Anything Trump says is fine with them.
Here’s the latest from a ABC News/Washington Post poll.
1. Trump…33% 6. Paul…5%
2. Carson..20% 7. Huckabee…3%
3. Bush…8% 8. Kasich…3%
4. Cruz…7% 9. Fiorina…2%
5. Rubio 7% 10.Walker…2%
Simply amazing. Inexplicable. Trumps says anything and
anything goes.
Trump’s candidacy rests upon one thing…..I can do this job.
But can he? Really? Trump’s businesses have declared
bankruptcy four times. No other U.S. company has done
that in the last thirty years. His idea’s lack substance. For instance
he declares, on immigration, send them all back.
And then let them back in if they are worth while, more or less. What’s
he going to do? Have the Government pulling people
out of their houses…..packing them in a bus. And how will he find
them all? At the cost of billions. It’s nonsense.
And, is Trump really a Republican? He has a long list of
liberal stances.
1. Single payer health care. The liberals have always wanted it.
2. Take private property for businesses.
3. Supported the Wall Street bailout.
4. In favor of partial birth abortion. (kill the baby at delivery)
5. Said Hillary would make a terrific President.
6. Declared he is a Democrat.
Trump is the most liberal candidate running next to Bernie
Sanders. What many don’t see is polls also
show, at present, Trump would not beat Hillary Clinton. She’s up 3% A
woman who may be indicted in the future.
And Joe Biden is waiting, healing and meeting with money men. Author
John Heilman says Biden leaning now for a run.
The public has not vetted Trump, as I listed above, anymore than anyone
vetted Obama before he was elected.
We have no idea what he’ll do anymore than he does. Does he
truly believe Congress is going to go along
with all his proposals? Thin skinned as he is, he trashes anyone who
says a word against him.
So where does all this leave us at present? He appears to be
pulling away.
All is not lost as yet. Trump has made it known, he only wants to
appear in major events. The people in Iowa and New Hampshire want a
closer look at their candidates. They want one on ones. To talk with
them in person. Ben Carson
is doing that and it’s working. Kasich, Christie and others as well.
Kasich remains the fall back guy from Trump.
Keep this in mind. There is the second major debate this
Wednesday, Sept. 16th on CNN. Six PM (eastern time)
and eight PM for the main eleven on stage. Trump’s bluster, insults and
arrogance may very well wear thin.
ABC’s Matthew Dowd says Trump is a shoo in for the nom. Weekly
Standard’s William Krystal says no way.
Let’s not forget who was well ahead at this time last election.
Gov. Rick Perry with 29%. He dropped out
last week. Heaven help us if the American Republican primary voters
buy us another “pig in a poke.”
Sixteen months to go to retake our Country in this worst of
times. Four to six months until caucus/primaries.
Plenty of time to see though the bluster. He will not and can not
“Make our Country Great Again.”
Thin skinned arrogance does not work in the long run.
