Carson Campaign RIP

http://dailycaller.com/2015/11/29/ben-carson-calls-planned-parenthood-shooting-a-hate-crime-video/

quote:

Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson weighed in Sunday on Friday’s shooting a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs, calling it a “hate crime” and saying that both sides of the abortion debate should “tone down their rhetoric.”

“Any hate crime is a horrible thing no matter from where it comes and should be condemned very strongly,” Carson said during an interview on ABC’s “This Week.”

"Bad in different ways" is probably more accurate. Trump isn't a lackey for the military-industrial complex; instead he has sold his soul to old-fashioned, "know-nothing" nativists.

I'm still astounded at how bad Jeb! is at this.

He was basically handed the nomination on a silver platter with a $100,000,000 SuperPAC behind him. Now he's polling at 3%-7%, and a bunch of his people have jumped ship to the new rising star in Rubio.

All this in just a few months.

Trump's going to have a hard time spinning this to the positive

quote:

Over the last week, Donald Trump's campaign has been promoting the fact that he was set to meet with a group of over 100 African-American pastors who were allegedly set to endorse him. The announcement was apparently news to the group of pastors who responded by criticizing the Republican presidential front runner.

Looking to gain some traction with potential African-American voters, the Trump campaign sent out a press release earlier this week with the hope that it would make some noise with black voters. "A coalition of 100 African American Evangelical pastors and religious leaders will endorse the GOP front runner after a private meeting at Trump Tower," the campaign said. As CNN reported on Nov. 29, Trump's plans will not go according to plan.

Pushing back at the claim that they would endorse Trump for president, the black leaders who were scheduled to meet the former host of "The Apprentice" are firing back. "I was asked 2 meet with Mr Trump too but I refused because until he learns how to respect people you can’t represent me thru my endorsement," Bishop Paul S. Morton of the Full Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship tweeted out to his followers. Senior Pastor of The Holy Ghost Cathedral Bishop Corletta Vaughn, also the star of "Preachers of Detroit," referred to Trump as an "insult" and an "embarrassment."

"He says he's going to deport ten million people and his big argument for how he'll accomplish a bunch of policy goals is 'Trust me, I know what I'm doing,' but at least he's honest"

To my mind it's less "at least he's honest" and more "finally these ideas can be defeated clearly and publicly rather than through insinuation". The whole "Conservatism cannot fail, only be failed" bullshit lets a lot of Republicans write off failed candidates as not being Conservative enough (as in, not blatantly bigoted culture warrior enough) so having a candidate who screams about immigrants and poors and losers and muslims as explicitly as possible then go on to lose the General in a landslide will humiliate the silent majority types.

The moderate Republicans have taken a beating over the last two Presidential campaigns and all the gridlock in Congress, so giving the far-rights a shot and showing how they fare even worse might help blow off some of that steam. Orrrrr lead to their realization that they really aren't the majority any more and then look out.

I was pretty sure the 100 black pastors were going to be paid handsomely, not made up out of thin air. But I guess in the style of trump 2016 this actually means he has 1000 black pastors on call.

That's what I figured. I wonder how many of them are upset at the ones who knocked Trump early instead of endorsing him and magically stumbling on a big upgrade of their church?

Not that anybody in the whole world thought that "we're going to have a secret meeting and then right afterwards they're all going to say they liked me" left anything to the imagination

I'm a little curious how Trump's going to spin this one.

Usually he can bullshit up a cover story and/or blame the media, but this time he sorta tripped himself up with his own words, and he doesn't really have any sort of convenient scapegoat.

Trump gets to choose between Cruz as his Starscream or Jeb! as a significantly dumber Soundwave.

Starcruz or Downswave.


Plinkey posted:

I just got done watching Trump's meet the press phone interview from this morning and his deflection and doubling down skills are amazing. He just rolls with it and nothing phases him. Chuck Todd went on and on about the 'tailgating' trying to get Trump to prove it/disprove it. In the end all he has to say is 'Chuck, I saw it, I know what I saw and I've had hundreds, maybe thousands of people call my office and tell me that they saw the same.'

The they moved onto the PP shooting and Trump more or less admitted that the guy was probably against PP itself, but because he was disturbed by the videos, so it was more or less PP's fault, then of course ended it with something like 'but I can't say for sure, he or anyone else hasn't come out with his motives, so we can't know until then'.

He's un-fact-chekable. It's amazing.

It's because the news media is for the most part too afraid to call someone a liar on live television to their face (or even over the phone). Public figures have massively abused the privilege of "access" and the media hasn't figured out they could shame them into reasonable cooperation using techniques like Bill McNeal's Hypothetical Interviews or writing the "questions" in an interview after selecting and rearranging "responses" recorded earlier, like Space Ghost: Coast to Coast.
