This may be the saddest point in Republican history I have seen in my life
Used to be that Democrats were the firebrands and Republicans were the conservative, calm voice of reason
Last nights debate looked like it belonged on Jerry Springer
We're just watching the aftermath of W. When Karl Rove literally financially attacked a guy like David Frum and literally ran him out of the gop because he had the temerity to publically publish that W's tax cuts, spending and wars were not the actions of a conservative, the GOP changed.
It does sort of bewilder me why so many like a guy like Trump though. I understand the desire for an outsider. I even understand why people would support the guy who is promising them shite that any relatively intelligent SHOULD know is not gonna happen, at least not the way he's saying he'll do it, and in fact is actually intentionally refusing to say how he'd do it. But I don't understand how 30-40% or primary voters would vote for a guy who really is obscene and obnoxious. If someone acted like that in my house, I'd tell them to leave and call the cops. And, if I had to I'd get my pistol.
