But I think Trump is holding back on his populism (as hard as that is to believe) just to be able to make sure he can win the Republican nomination.

If that happens, or at the very least after he wins the Presidency, I predict Trump will “come out of the closet” and start pushing for these things, among others:

1. Some sort of health care reform that’s not ObamaDontCare but not what it replaced, something that may or may not be universal Federally exclusive Medicaid, but maybe close.

2. A one time or an annual small percentage marginal tax on very high net worths. Back in 2000, he proposed this very thing as part of the speculation that he would run on the Reform Party, but he proposed an untenably high rate (14.25%), and quickly dropped the proposal.

3. He’ll announce that the “catch” with his lowering income tax rate proposals will be that most if not all tax free trusts and foundations are eliminated.

“most if not all tax free trusts and foundations are eliminated.”

How would such a policy affect the VDARE Foundation,the New Century Foundation and their donors?

closing the borders is the single best way to soak the rich, so I don’t particularly think he is all that much in the closet. The wealth of the top 1% tracks the percentage of foreign born in this country. Both graphs are essentially U shaped as immigration was closed off in the 20s, and then opened back up in the 60s.

Forty-five percent in, Trump in second and slipping, and it seems the last minute surge to Rubio was real.

If this Rubio result holds and he finishes in solid third, that’s all we’re gonna hear about for a solid week, 24/7 Pool Boy.

Wilson and Jacobus are going to be even more insufferable.

There’s a non-zero chance Rubio comes in second. If that’s the case by prediction that Trump will win SC and nothing else will definitely hold true.

Geeze. The little prick is getting close.

So the Winningest Winner who Ever Won at Everything eeked out a silver.

Looks like skipping the last debate was a yuuuuuuuge mistake.

Standby for a Dean Scream.

No big deal. The Fundy candidate usually wins in Ioway. Ask Cuckabee or Santorum.

It’s not just the fact he finished second. It’s the fact he barely beat Rubio after bullshitting about polls and big victories for seven months.

Glass jaw.

Cucks are really yucking it up, but this one’s actually amusing.
