Trump Tells the Truth About Interventionism
Opposes endless war supported by Clinton, Rubio and Cruz
http://www.infowars.com/trump-tells-the-truth-about-interventionism/
The neocons are furious with Republican frontrunner Donald Trump. He refuses to call for military interventionism like all the other Republican candidates (with the exception of Rand Paul, who is now out of the race) and says Iraq and Libya are a mess because of American foreign policy.
There is little difference between the parties on foreign policy. Hillary Clinton is as belligerent or more so than her Republican rivals. As Secretary of State she oversaw the destruction of Libya and the slaughter of 100,000 Libyans. She chortled on national television about the brutal murder of Muammar Gaddafi, a man who was not a threat to the United States.
Both Cruz and Rubio are interventionists. In September Ted Cruz advocated killing Ali Khamenei, the ayatollah of Iran. Cruz likes to portray himself as a moderate on interventionism, and yet his team includes the cofounder of the Chertoff Group and a former CIA director connected to the now largely defunct Project for the New American Century (PNAC), a think tank with an agenda formulated by top neocons William Kristol and Robert Kagan. Ted’s foreign policy team also includes Elliot Abrams, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations and the son-in-law of Norman Podhoretz, a trailblazing neoconservative ideologue.
Marco Rubio is the darling of the neocon clique. He advocates a unilateral first strike on Iran as a “preventive measure” in response to nuclear weapons the country does not have. In December he went full neocon on Fox News (the appropriate forum) and said as president he would disregard national sovereignty on a global scale and rendition suspected terrorists and give them “a one-way ticket to Guantanamo” where they will be tortured until they “tell us everything they know about plots past, present, and the ones they’re planning for the future.”
Clinton, Cruz and Rubio get foreign policy advice from Beacon Global Strategies, a firm founded in 2013 by former senior officials from the State Department, Department of Defense, and Central Intelligence Agency. Its client base consists primarily of military contractors.
So-called “defense contractors” have a vested interest in making sure one of the establishment’s handpicked triumvirate is ultimately selected and manufactured “global security threats” continue. According to a report generated by the accounting firm Deloitte, “revenue growth” is “expected to take a positive turn” due to the terrorism and war in the Middle East and the tensions in Eastern Europe and the South China Sea, The Intercept reported in January.
Candidate Trump’s take on interventionism is a departure from the rest of the field committed to the establishment and the military-industrial complex. Although many of his proposed solutions to a number of issues appear to be reactionary and often authoritarian, his take on the forever war agenda and the foreign policy of the establishment is encouraging.

In an apparent effort to discredit suggestions that the GOP establishment is terrified that Donald Trump will get the party’s nomination, Republican National Committee head Reince Priebus said he’ll support whoever the voters select.
In an interview with CBS, Priebus insisted that any of the current GOP candidates would have an edge over “Hillary Clinton, who is under investigation by the FBI, or a socialist from Vermont.”
The RNC chairman also insisted that no establishment GOP donors have expressed serious concerns about a Trump nomination.
“Honestly, I don’t hear that,” he said. “In a competition, sure, candidates say, ‘I’m going to be the best choice; this person isn’t going to be that great.’
That happens all the time. After a while, when you have six serious competitors out there on the campaign stump every day, you hear all kinds of things.”
When pressed about rifts in the Republican Party, Priebus noted that anyone looking for controversy ought to have plenty of fodder on the Democratic side.
“We’ve got some drama and intrigue going on in the Republican Party, but if you look at what’s going on in the Democratic Party, it is a complete and total train wreck,” he said. “At least we have people who are working really hard to fight and claw their way to the nomination.
“I think if you look at where we’re at as a party, if you look at where the Democrats are at, I think most people believe we’re in a pretty darn good place.”

Bloomberg Vs. Trump? | Zero Hedge Patrick Buchanan via Buchanan.org,
The morning of the New Hampshire primary, Donald Trump, being interviewed on “Morning Joe,” said that he would welcome his “friend” Michael Bloomberg into the presidential race.
Which is probably the understatement of 2016.
The three-term mayor of New York and media mogul whose fortune is estimated at $39 billion, making him one of the richest men on earth, told the Financial Times on Monday he is considering a run.
Bloomberg had earlier confided he was worried about Hillary Clinton’s ability to turn back the challenge of Bernie Sanders, regards Trump’s rise with trepidation, and is appalled by the pedestrian character of the campaign rhetoric.
“I find the level of discourse and discussion distressingly banal and an insult to the voters,” said Bloomberg; the public deserves “a lot better.”
This haughty disdain calls to mind the late Adlai Stevenson. Yet, if Bloomberg runs, his electoral vote tally would likely make Adlai, by comparison, look like Richard Nixon on his 49-state romp in 1972.
Republicans should give Mayor Mike every encouragement to enter the race. For though he threatens to spend a billion dollars of his own money to buy the presidency, his name on the ballot as a third-party candidate could send the Democratic nominee straight down to Davy Jones’s locker.
With Bloomberg siphoning off millions of liberal votes, Democrats would not only lose red states they customarily write off, winning solid blue states would require a far steeper climb.
Third Party candidates have played crucial roles in presidential politics. Ex-President Theodore Roosevelt killed the re-election hopes of his successor President William Howard Taft in 1912, by running as the Bull Moose candidate and delivering the nation to Woodrow Wilson.
Strom Thurmond carried four Deep South states in 1948 and George Wallace carried five Deep South states in 1968. Both sought to throw the election into the U.S. House. Neither succeeded.
Ross Perot got 19 percent of the popular vote in 1992 and 8 percent in 1996. Though he did not carry a single state either time, as a candidate of the populist center-right, Perot peeled off a third of the votes George H. W. Bush had won in 1988 — to sink Bush in 1992.
Why would Bloomberg, who has great wealth and is willing to part with it, not be able to beat Trump, or another Republican nominee, if he plunged a billion dollars into his campaign?
Though he may be a pioneer in modern media and a man with a golden touch, Bloomberg is 74 years old this week, uncharismatic, and does not fill up a room the way the Donald does.
He lacks a common touch and is a social liberal, pro-abortion and pro-same-sex marriage.
Moreover, he is a compulsive nanny-stater who outlawed smoking in New York bars, restaurants and public places, prohibited the sale of cigarettes to anyone under 21, forbade trans-fats in restaurants, sodas larger than 16 ounces, chain restaurant menus without calorie counts, cellphones in school, non-fuel-efficient cabs, greenhouse gas emissions, and non-hurricane-proof buildings in coastal areas.
While not well-known nationally, Bloomberg is a zealot about tougher gun control laws and his candidacy would produce a deluge of contributions to the National Rifle Association. This obsession, along with his social views, would sink him in Red State America.
Nor is Bloomberg, despite three straight victories running for mayor, a great political athlete.
In his last race, as the Republican and Independent candidate, Bloomberg spent $102 million to defeat an underfunded Democrat comptroller, but managed to win only 51 percent of the vote.
If Clinton, or even Sanders, were at the top of the Democratic ticket in New York State, either would crush Bloomberg in his home town, especially with the GOP nominee, say Trump, siphoning off all of the Republican-conservative votes Bloomberg received to become mayor.
Now only would Bloomberg lose the Big Apple, his statewide vote would come mostly from the Democratic nominee, giving Republicans the best opportunity to carry the Empire State since Ronald Reagan coasted to re-election in 1984.
By spending a billion dollars, Bloomberg could blanket the nation with ads. But once Republican oppo research groups defined him for Middle America, perhaps 4 in 5 of his votes would come out of the basket upon which Democrats rely.
For example, as a Jewish-American, Bloomberg might do well in the Dade-Broward-Palm Beach County corridor, taking votes that Clinton or Sanders would need to carry Florida. Yet, where would Bloomberg get the rest of his votes to win the Sunshine State?
Clearly, Bloomberg is envious of the success of the Donald, since he descended on that escalator at Trump Towers on June 16.
The problem for Bloomberg is that, while this is the year of the outsider, with populist revolts breaking out in both parties, Sanders and Trump caught the lightning early, while he was restructuring his media empire. And, to be candid, Michael Bloomberg is no barn burner.
So all together now: “Run, Mike, Run!”
