    Especially those that think "Sometimes people need to be killed."

    do you find it at all ironic that the politicians pushing gun control are generally protected by an entourage of armed guards at all times?

    I'm sure she'd love to. thankfully she could never make it happen.

    But Rubio is connected to Cuba, not Mexico - or is he?

    [But then - Cuba or Mexico. What's the fucking difference, eh?]

    Would it be too out of character for Trump to select his son, Donald Jr. to be his running mate since he's not allowed to pick himself?

    And is Donald Jr. the taller light haired one or the shorter dark haired guy (who looks and acts like he's never taken a decent shit in his entire life?)

    I don't know which son it is buy one of them has talked a decent amount on radio/tv. He comes off much better than his father while communicating the same messages. I'd actually prefer he were running.

    How long do you think they can keep Trump restrained before he has another foot in mouth episode? Do you get the feeling they're desperate to "remake" Trump into a more civilized, "presidential" candidate which ironically would alienate the very angry voters that back him now? Since they can't change Trump's base personality, all they can hope to do is contain his bombastic nature long enough to convince voters he's really not Donald Trump. I also hear there's quite a few VIP tickets available for the Convention as many notables are staying far away from it.

    A change in his presentation isn't going to alienate his existing supporters. Trump can only gain supporters at this point, not lose them.

    Trump's dog whistle isn't very effective because he's so loud. I think he could lose a significant portion of his "base" if he began moderating his positions (loudly of course because that's the only way he operates.)

    SO Paul Ryan refuses to endorse trump. I assume because he wants some say with his cabinet or policies before doing so. This is the type of shit that makes me understand why Trump exists.

    Fuck Paul Ryan, btw.

    This gave me the opposite view of Ryan.

    I have a problem with the politicians that say "Trump is a psychopath that will be bad for America and will create disastrous situations around the globe but I'm going to endorse him anyway bc my party told me to"
