But Donald, like yourself Rethuglicans are incapable of feeling shame.
âTrump Gripes About Everything: He Should Be Ashamed of Himselfâ
âRepublicans Gripe About Everything: (fill in the blanks)âŚâ
âŚkeep the popcorn coming. Political suicide all over the place.
What a child! The Colorado party elders should be ashamed of themselves if they varied from the rules, published well before the primary season, with copies given to every candidate.
The person who should be ashamed of himself is the Donald, who failed to see it coming, and who got wildly outplayed by those who, you know, read the rules.
For more than 100 years, delegates determined nominations, and the rules havenât meaningfully changed. The fact that Trump is whining about the rules is simply this: the so called âdeal artistâ got wildly outplayed, and is suffering from the fact he lost (at least in Colorado) for lack of playing the game by the rules.
Hell, his kids couldnât even figure out how to register to vote. The acornsâŚ
Mr. Trump doesnât like it when he is shown up as being incompetent.
Such a pity.
I suspect he better get used to it with both the convention, and if he makes his way through that, the general election to follow.
Hope heâs on blood pressure meds.
"The Art of the Squeal"
I canât help imagine how it must feel to be a loyal Republican and have this lifelong out-for-himself narcissist, lummox, coward, and crybaby as your standard-bearer. Thereâs that, and then thereâs Bill Shakespeareâs example of a real leader, the kind whoâs committed to the people he claims to want to lead, who shares their fate, good or bad, who gives, in short, a fuck about someone besides himself:
I realize Iâm saying this to an audience of people who already probably understand this, but why isnât this whole failure and whining about that failure disqualifying for Trump among his supporters?
His whole argument is that he is uniquely capable of making things happen and putting the right people in charge under him to accomplish anything. Okay, he canât figure out delegates or how to win them. He canât even orchestrate getting his own children registered to vote for him. He has failed spectacularly within his campaign organization to accomplish the one thing he hinges his whole argument for being successful on. Isnât this the test of his supposed super powers of good management? And hasnât he fallen totally flat on that one point?
All The Kingâs Men about a Louisiana demagogue is the drumpf playbook
âJust stir âem up, it doesnât matter how or why, and theyâll love you and come back for more. Pinch âem in the soft place. They arenât alive, most of âem, and havenât been alive for 20 years. Hell, their wives have lost their teeth and their shape, and likker wonât set on their stomachs, and they donât believe in God, so itâs up to you to give âem something to stir âem up and make âem feel alive again. Just for half an hour. Thatâs what they come for. Tell âem anything. But for Sweet Jesusâ sake, donât try to improve their minds.â
one more time⌠when do the grown ups enter the room?
âThe pre-frightenedâ describes drumpfâs followers, and all credit goes to @squirreltown for that. Itâs similar to what the bushies did in the aftermath of 9/11 and the runup to the Iraq invasion. They scared the poop of unthinking people who looked ever more fervently to them for hope and reassurance and were led like sheep to the slaughter. P.S. Do not under any circumstances look at Facebook when there is new post about drumpf. Oh my dog, theyâre blind and loud and so very stupid.
You MUST understand - this isnât his fault. This is the fault of the GOP âestablishment.â Not his fault. He is very successful, very successful, you can tell by how many things he owns and heâs been on tv and the casinos. This isnât his fault. This is an incompetent RNC and they should be ashamed of themselves.
Cause not his fault.
This (or something like it) is what keeps him afloat with the Trumpets.
EDIT TO ADD: It really canât be overstated just how important it is for the Trumpets to have someone like Rump publically speak their worst needs and beliefs. Almost to the last one, they say how drawn they are to him because heâs willing to âtell it like it is.â He validates everything in their horrible, racist minds and says it openly.
He frees them in a wayâŚ
So the RNC should be ashamed of themselves because you are a dumbfuck who didnât know the rules?
Um⌠ok.
Some people think the remarks made by Seth Meyers at the WH Correspondents Dinner in 2011 preceded by the presidentâs famous remarks which we know so well are what made drumpf decide to run for prez.
âDonald Trump has said heâs running for president as a Republican â which is surprising because I thought he was running as a joke.â
âDonald Trump owns the Miss USA pageant, which is great for Republicans because it will streamline their search for a vice president.â
Clearly Donnie and his staff are nothing but amateurs at this. They donât know, much less understand how the game is played, and so their leader, Donnie, blames everybody else. Can anyone really envision this idiot as the Leader of the Free World? Unfortunately I can, and the vision is truly frightening.
What is more frightening is the millions of people voting for him who cannot even begin to discern the absurdity of his candidacy.
âDonald Trump owns the Miss USA pageant, which is great for Republicans
because it will streamline their search for a vice president.â
You must mean Sara Palin? Pardon me as I barf.
I believe the phrase youâre looking for is âsuspension of disbeliefâ. If youâre already of the mind to support Trump, then you already donât care about facts, decorum, dignity, rationality, humanity, or the Bible for that matter⌠all his contradictions to everything I just listed is out there in the open for anyone to see.
They should be ashamed
Tiny Tears wets self, waves tiny handsâŚ
Mona lies-a, Mona lies-a, TVâs made youâŚ
The story at HuffPo at this hour states that GOP Bigwigs are going to avoid the Convention. The cynic will surmise that they will come around and support Trump with enthusiasm.
I do not think so,
