OPINION:
Make no mistake: The Clinton-controlled, liberal media is keenly behind Donald Trump’s massive polling, headlines and sandbagged media bombshells, as Republican challenger Ted Cruz recently pointed out. Why else would every Hollywood- or Netflix-produced political-animal, Washington-scandal and bisexual-couple-in-the-White-House program have become so well-funded and produced? Bill Clinton has known all along that his de-facto third and fourth terms as co-president depend upon his wife defeating the Bush-Koch-Adelson trifecta early in the primary, and hopefully making the general election.
Truth be told, Mr. Trump’s decades-old household name and Berlusconian grasp of today’s media is leaving old-school Republican campaign, advertising and strategy consultants in the dust. It does not matter what we, or my heroes Dick Cheney, Mitt Romney and Karl Rove think of Mr. Trump personally, or what Mr. Trump’s ideologies are (or aren’t). All that matters is whom he would hire and fire if elected.
Mr. Trump has more appeal, experience and leadership skill than 10 Obamas. Nevermind the insults and scar tissue from his business career; the Republican Party needs what Mr. Trump has and can’t seem to gather anymore: Modern-day, politically incorrect voters coming out of the woodwork in droves.
If Mr. Trump can sit down with Mr. Cheney, Mr. Romney and Mr. Rove — and our intelligence community — and agree to do exactly as they say, including making the most incredible vice presidential and cabinet picks in the history of our country, the Republican Party will win in November, and America will be saved from the real-life embodiment of Frank and Claire Underwood and their house of cards.
