Y’know Reince - I think I’ll vote for someone who doesn’t have to pretend so hard.

Since when did “Presidential” become synonymous with “minimally conversant with accepted behavior toxic-buffoon-unbeing non-monster”? The process happened so gradually I never noticed it.

Priebus, who attended Thursday’s meeting between Trump and Ryan, said the session “was more Midwest than New York”.

So they filled the room with corn, cows and cheddar cheese? Maybe had a hot dish for lunch?

Or maybe he means nobody had anybody whacked. What I think he’s trying to say is the meeting was undisastrously pleasant, but he’s so deeply in the habit of mouthing simplistic and stereotypical nonsense talking points that by now he can barely convey actual meaningful information at all.

Ryan, Priebus, et al. GOPers: endorse racism and you are disgraced forever. Just ask Pete Wilson.

Donald Trump has been trying hard lately to act more presidential and should keep meeting individually with Republican leaders to win the party’s trust, the GOP chairman said Friday.

In other news, paramedics were called as a precaution because former GOP Chairman Michael Steele couldn’t stop laughing.

“He’s been trying very hard to be presidential and gracious and I think he’s actually done a nice job of that lately,”

One doesn’t “try” to be presidential. It’s not about being gracious and not saying the wrong thing. What Priebus is saying is that they are coaching him on how to fake it. I’m not going to go all Yoda on you but… Okay, I am. “Do, or do not, there is no try.”

I know I am a cruel and heartless motherfucker, but I want to see Reince coughing up blood from his ulcers at the end of election day. But, luckily for Prince Reince, Wingnut Welfare is always waiting in the wings when he loses his job as head of the RNC because, the Teabaggers will tell us, the Republican “establishment” (translation: Teabaggers with money) didn’t run candidates who were conservative enough. Of course, all the Republican candidates who are conservative enough for their own Teabagger base were hung by the neck after the Nuremberg trials in the 1940s.
