I’d say this was going to fun to watch if I wasn’t so petrified he might win.
Now, that’s a Uniter!
This is why GOP unity is never really going to happen. Any attempt to hedge or dodge supporting Trump will be viewed by Trump as traitorous. He’ll hit back and attack even the most mundane criticism. When you’re trying to work your way to accepting someone and giving them another shot, it really doesn’t help to have them on the sidelines reminding you exactly why you’re so hesitant in the first place.
This guy is so easy to predict. He could have just kept his mouth shut and dealt with things behind closed doors, but nope; he fires a big FU back. I can’t wait until some major-league manipulators get to work on him after the conventions.
You might as well laugh at these people bopping each other like the Three Stooges even amidst your fear. It’s a tricky compartmentalization but I think with so many opportunities to feel both emotions simultaneously we’ll all get quite good at it before this thing is over.
God I love it! I really cannot wait for the republican convention! I wonder if the Grand Imperial Wizard will be given a speaking slot?
That wasn’t very presidential. He cannot keep his big mouth shut. I don’t think we have to worry as long as can’t.
HRC will take great joy in provoking him just to get the over-the-top reaction. He’s as predictable as hell when it comes to his uncontrollable need to retaliate for any real or perceived slight. It won’t serve him well in the General.
Q: “Conservatives want to know, does he share our values and our principles” - Paul Ryan
A: “[The American people] have been treated so badly for so long that it is about time for politicians to put them first!” - Donald Trump
The GOP now has to decide between its unity and big tent theories. Cognitive dissonance can be so very entertaining.
Honestly.
Between Carson giving him “advice” and having NO impulse control whatsoever (why bother-it’s all genius, right?) , Rump is going to tear the GOP apart piece by piece.
Ryan (offering Trump a carrot): I - and the party establishment - will support Trump when he agrees to bring some republican staffers on board, when he moderates his tone a little. Then we’ll all win together.
Trump: This is my party now. Ryan thinks he can tell me what to do. LOSER!
And Ryan’s staff will be hearing and reading scurrilous insults and death threats from Trump’s mouth-breathing minions for the next what, ten days or so? Communications will come to a screeching halt in his office. Cruz will be laughing from the depths of hell before long because even Lucifer in the flesh is less hated than Donald J.
Trump is the GOP’s cheating husband who slept with his ex-girlfriend. He keeps begging them back and saying he wants to work it out, “baby, I’ve changed.” The GOP really wants to work it out for the sake of their base, but then the GOP just keeps catching him trying to fuck their friends. Instead of apologizing or at least trying to make up some “it’s not how it looks” story, he just blames the GOP for being pissed off that he cheated on them with his ex. Really, he’s going to be the star corpse of an episode of Snapped.
LOL. The likes of Mitch McConnell must be at home or behind closed doors just bitching to God: “Why? Why are you doing this to me?!? Why couldn’t I have had a good run, a successful, enjoyable twelve years or so? Why, God?”
John Boehner might be home drinking himself to sleep every night, but at least he saw the Tea Party Hell Hounds were loose and very angry so he got his ass out of D.C.
Even Glenn Beck, crybaby that he is, at least has the balls enough to state publicly his strong dislike of Trump. It’s still early, though … come on GOPers, your house is engulfed in fire now – are you going to get out and risk pissing off the King of Hell or are you going to saunter over and lick his sweaty orange balls?
Hope everybody’s stocked up on popcorn…
Wheew! Man, I was worried there, for about a day and a half I heard Drumpf keeping it turned down. But, as others have predicted, sure enough, the thin-skinned asshole huckster misogynist was just funnin’ us, and he’s not taking any crap from Eddie Munster or anyone else of his ilk. Please proceed, Mr. Trump.
The Republican Party is now the Donner Party.
Bon appétit!
And several bottles of Schadenfreude 2016. Nothing better with popcorn than sipping on a glass of Schadenfreude.
Chris Christie said he’s going to personally reach out to Paul Ryan. Who’s running for prez here???
