For your convenience, here are my tweets in real time of the 12th, GOP debate, in CORAL GABLES, at the University of Miami (3/10). Since so few networks respect the written word, let us thank CNN for providing a transcript. For the first time, I’m comfortable saying Mr. Trump won the debate. He had never done so before.

UPDATE (3/11):

From first to last, with the most important tweet—you’re looking at it—in the lead:

Trump Must Lay Responsibility For Libya At Hillary’s Chubby Feet

Hillary Clinton, Islam, Middle East, War

Donald Trump finished George Bush off and, by extension, brother Jeb’s candidacy. Trump should not be shy about laying Libya at Hillary’s chubby feet—from the invasion to the fiasco of Benghazi.

Republicans have confined their critique of the war Hillary Clinton initiated in Libya to criticism of her role in the Benghazi tragedy. Given their comparable zeal for unconstitutional, unethical and futile wars; Republicans have never seriously gone after the war Hillary launched on Libya; a war that has seen the US leave another Arab country in ruins.

I’ve heard Sean Hannity attempt this line of inquiry. He stopped short of pursuing a critique of the US-led ruination of Libya, perhaps because it would’ve left him and like-minded conservatives vulnerable. After all, had they not cheered a similarity unjust adventure in Iraq? Indeed they did.

The New York Times has a two-part expose, written, naturally, from the utilitarian perspective that it’s OK for the US to launch such wars, provided the war turns out well.

Part 2: A New Libya, With ‘Very Little Time Left’ By SCOTT SHANE and JO BECKER: The fall of Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi seemed to vindicate Hillary Clinton. Then militias refused to disarm, neighbors fanned a civil war, and the Islamic State found refuge.

UPDATED: Americans Sick-And-Tired Of Being Manipulated By Their Leadership & Its Client States

Donald Trump, Elections, IMMIGRATION, Middle East, Political Correctness, Republicans

World leaders are heavily vested in an America whose borders are open to all, and whose leadership leverages political correctness as a weapon against a down-trodden American people petrified of … being called names.

It would appear that Americans, for the most, are sick-and-tired of being manipulated from above and from every other direction by their leadership and its client states.

The audacious Hisham Melhem of Al Arabya:

And there’s the ubiquitous threat, again, issued by ESTABLISHMENT ERICK (ERICKSON). People, behave or else!

“… ultimately that Donald Trump supporters need to understand that Hillary Clinton will be elected if they choose to go down this path and Republicans have an obligation to to make it clear in the primary that it will be Hillary Clinton if they don’t change.”

Frau Merkel’s Idea of Defending Germans

Crime, EU, Europe, IMMIGRATION, Islam, Middle East, Multiculturalism

With the blessing of the treacherous Angela Merkel, migrants—mostly Muslim, male, Middle-Eastern—may endanger the lives of Germans all they want. But they cannot be returned to sender if there’s even the slightest concern that their lives will be imperiled back at “home.”

German law doesn’t protect the rights of German citizens, but the rights of migrants. So Merkel’s response to the mass molestation by migrants of German girls is no response at all. “Serial offenders who repeatedly rob or repeatedly affront women must feel the full force of the law,’ Merkel told journalists in Mainz.”

By “the full force of the law,” what does this repulsive woman mean?

“Under German law,” explain Reuters reporters Joseph Nasr and Matthias Inverardi, “asylum seekers are now typically only deported if they have been sentenced to at least three years in prison, and providing their lives are not at risk at home.”

Three years in prison is probably the sentence meted out for murder in Germany.
