~ “I hope we once again have reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There’s a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: as government expands, liberty contracts.” Ronald Reagan.
It was January 27th when Donald Trump gave a stark warning to Brussels Belgium, and the New York Times mocked him for it
Asked by the Fox Business Network anchor Maria Bartiromo about the feasibility of his proposal to bar foreign Muslims from entering the United States, Mr. Trump argued that Belgium and France had been blighted by the failure of Muslims in these countries to integrate…..
LONDON — He incensed Paris and London by saying that some of their neighborhoods were so overrun with radicals that the police were too scared to enter.
He raised Scottish tempers by threatening to pull the plug on his investments there, including his luxury golf courses, if British politicians barred him from entering Britain.
Now Donald J. Trump has upset the already beleaguered people of Belgium, calling its capital, Brussels, “a hellhole.”
Asked by the Fox Business Network anchor Maria Bartiromo about the feasibility of his proposal to bar foreign Muslims from entering the United States, Mr. Trump argued that Belgium and France had been blighted by the failure of Muslims in these countries to integrate.
There is something going on, Maria,” he said. “Go to Brussels. Go to Paris. Go to different places. There is something going on and it’s not good, where they want Shariah law, where they want this, where they want things that — you know, there has to be some assimilation. There is no assimilation. There is something bad going on.”
Warming to his theme, he added that Brussels was in a particularly dire state. “You go to Brussels — I was in Brussels a long time ago, 20 years ago, so beautiful, everything is so beautiful — it’s like living in a hellhole right now,” Mr. Trump continued.
For Belgians, already reeling from recent terrorist plots and a chronically dysfunctional government, Mr. Trump’s words were enough to induce a fit of pique worthy, in some cases, of Mr. Trump himself.
Before long, the hashtag #hellhole was gaining traction on Twitter as Belgians lashed out at Mr. Trump, deploying an arsenal of insults, irony and humor, including images of Belgium’s beloved beer and chocolate.
One Twitter user posted a picture of Mr. Trump with what appeared to be a Belgian waffle stuffed in his mouth.
“This is my hellhole,” Joseph Lemaire, a Brussels-based public relations consultant, posted on Twitter, along with several photos, including one showing the capital’s central square, the Grand Place or Grote Markt, which is flanked by stately 17th-century buildings from the city’s prosperous mercantile days….
Fast forward to March 22, 2016 — No, Joseph Lemaire, THIS is your hellhole.

Bartiromo resumes her discussion with Trump this morning after news broke of the Islamic terrorist attacks in Brussels:
Clearly, Europe and most of all, the people of Brussels are reeling…and a hellhole fundamentally transformed by the forces Donald Trump warned about and for doing so mocked by Brussels and company.
Marco Rubio stated Thursday night that during the Fox News GOP Debate that Trump University received a ”D-” rating from the Better Business Bureau, to which the Fox News moderators agreed (of course, they would).
However, during the break, Donald Trump presented moderators with evidence to the contrary and although there was plenty of opportunity to set the record straight, the moderators did not. H/t Bob Trent.
Fox Gives Moderators Proof on Trump University Screen-Shot-2016-03-04-at-10_17_19-AM
During last night’s heated Fox News Republican primary debate, Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) attacked conservative businessman Donald Trump about Trump University, which taught subscribers how to succeed in the difficult real estate industry.
Fox News moderators agreed with Rubio that Trump University received a “D-” from the Better Business Bureau. Then, at a commerical break, Trump handed a paper to Here is a copy of the paper, which shows Trump University really had an “A” rating:
Even with proof in hand, neither the moderators nor Marco Rubio retracted their statements. Nor did they mention that the D- Minus rating issued for the year 2010 was later upgraded.
The mainstream media intentionally set out to deceive when one day before the GOP debate they falsely reported that Fox News was no longer in bed with gangsta’ Marco Rubio who by the way is the real con man.
One, therefore, cannot blame Donald Trump for canceling his appearance at CPAC when the deck is padded and stacked mile high against the candidate.
The attacks on Donald Trump which has been relentless confirms our suspicions that Little Marco Rubio, aka REAL con man/Gangsta’ and Lyin’ Ted Cruz are in bed with the establishment.
Last evening (Friday), I received an email from TedCruz2016, subject: “(Attached) Your Trump University Diploma!”
The email attacked Donald Trump for opting out of CPAC, accused Trump of deceiving American workers and seizing upon the moment offered up fake diplomas from Trump University created by the Cruz campaign to anyone upon signing a non-existent anti-Trump petition.
Rather than taking you to the anti-Trump petition referenced above (no such petition exists), after clicking on any part of the fake diploma or hyperlink in the last paragraph of the email, one finds oneself at TedCruz2016 on a page requesting name, zip code and email address after which one clicks the link, “JOIN THE FIGHT.”
One then finds oneself on a page with the promised FAKE Trump University diploma. See screenshots below:
Note: the sales pitch at the top of the page advertising Trump University t-shirts with the statement “Enter Code: GOP Debate.”
Clicking on that link will land you on a page selling t-shirts for $25.00.
Just for the heck of it, I went through the motions of placing a t-shirt in the cart, then on to checkout where I entered the code, “GOP Debate” as specified. The response to my entry was, OFFER EXPIRED, which is pretty much like my support for Ted Cruz.
The more that I hear from Ted Cruz, the more I realize that he is not the candidate that he claims to be.
I do not care for snake and oil salesmen or the fact that I have unsubscribed repeatedly over the past three months as a result of being inundated with emails and text messages day and night from the Cruz camp, their SuperPacs et al but the emails keep coming.
“I told Donald Trump, this is a campaign. This is a movement…The American people are not happy with their government.” Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL)
In what is surely to be a major blow to the campaign of Senator Ted Cruz heading in to Super Tuesday March 1 primary elections, Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) just hours ago endorsed Donald Trump for president during a rally in Sessions hometown of Madison, Alabama before a crowd of 32,000.
Below is the full rally. Trump begins at 1:09:15 of the video.
You can bet the Senator from Texas didn’t see that one coming. Now that is going to leave a mark.
Below is Rush Limbaugh’s podcast in its entirety. The podcast begins with Limbaugh sharing his personal memories of Justice Scalia.
At approximately 09:35 of the podcast, Limbaugh calls out Barack Obama’s agenda to appoint “the most committed leftist” on the Supreme Court and “shift the balance of the court” for nearly two decades.
“Will the Republicans stop Obama? Will they TRY to stop Obama?”
Limbaugh also discusses Saturday night’s GOP debate, Donald Trump and the GOP establishment’s pundits such as George Will preaching Trump’s funeral. The establishment still does not get it.
Let me just reiterate. We’re gonna get into this in detail, by the way. I’m gonna share with you some of the comments that are out there. We’ll discuss all the different analysis about Obama and the replacement for Justice Scalia, but it’s really gonna come down to the Republicans, and they’re saying are the right things right now.
I’ve noticed McConnell said that president “should not” make an appointment during the final year. We’ve got Schumer and the Democrat Party hypocrisy where they have advocated exactly what the Republicans advocate for today, but they’re acting like nobody remembers them saying it and so forth. I’ll get into all of that. But McConnell did not say “would.” He said “should.” He did not say, “No way, not ever, no how is Obama gonna get a nominee.” He said he “shouldn’t.” There’s wiggle room there….
