I hope Trump lowers the boom on the RNC's "loyalty oath" tactics at his news conference.

That way, aside from the online community, the entire country will know about this "loyalty oath" demand issued from The Party.

This crap must be exposed.

The RNC has 3 options re Donald Trump.

1. Attack him and his support.
2. Keep him off the ballot.
3. Boot Jeb and get a new Establishment Candidate. They recoil at this one, right now.


Every time Trump grabs the spotlight, he's gotta use it effectively.

We're still waiting to see WHEN the media will *START VETTING* Jeb Bush's record.

That's a very good question for Trump to throw out there, and to specify some reasons why.


Reasons like Jeb!'s exact role for his nice, fat salary at Lehman Brothers, prior to and during its meltdown.

Reasons like Florida's pension fund thievery by both Enron and Lehman, while Jeb! was governor.
More about Enron here and here, and Lehman and Enron here.

Reasons like Jeb's education scams (see especially his close partnership with Gov. LePage of Maine).

Reasons like Terri Schiavo.

Reasons like whether Jeb!'s SuperPAC donor contributions from Shanghai and Hong Kong have been properly vetted (as NOT being from foreign nationals). So far, he has refused to address it (see link).

Reasons like why Jeb! is a signatory of the 1997 Statement of Principles at the Project For The New American Century (PNAC), the neoconservative war hawks' blueprint for the aggressive invasion of Iraq, and is now seen as the biggest foreign policy disaster in American history. And why Jeb Bush has such difficulty deciding today whether invading Iraq was a good idea.


Let's hear it, Mr. Trump.

He very publicly said at the debate that he would consider a third-party run if he didn't get the Republican nomination. He even raised both hands in answer to the question about a third-party run.
