Before I drop this post, let's have a moment of silence for Scott Walker........Goodbye Scott, we hardly knew you. And to think that after all you did up in Wisconsin you still thought that you could one day become the president of this "great" nation.
I wonder who will be next? At least six or seven of these candidates have to know that they have no shot at winning the republican primary let alone the presidency. At this point they are just all trying to raise how much they can get for their speaking fees in the future, and angle for a talk show on FOX VIEWS.
Of course Scott Walker dropping out now frees up the big donor money for the folks at the top, like Carly Fiorina,
Carly is now rising, and Donald Trump, as is to be expected, is attacking. Fortunately for him there is a lot there to attack. I will give her credit, though, the way she doubles down on a lie is quite Nixonian. I am sure that there are a lot of folks in her party who appreciates that.
Raise your hand if you believe, like I do, that Donald Trump has peaked. At some point all the stupid stuff he could get away with as an entertainer is not going to cut it on the presidential trail. (Dude, what's with the Megyn Kelly obsession?) The way he handled that town hall meeting in New Hampshire was laughable. And no, I am not talking about him ignoring the birther question about the president. It was his response to the deranged winngut asking him about Muslims ("I will look into that") that was beyond pandering; it made him look like a complete moron. No different than the obvious loon who was asking him the question. The leader in the presidential field of a major political party will "look into" getting rid of Muslims?
"We have a problem in this country. It's called Muslims. We know our current president is one," the man told Trump.
Sir, we do have a problem in this country, but believe me when I tell you, it ain't Muslims.
