Or maybe the Republicans can elect the Donald so that they can impeach him and make the VP President.
But who's going to be the Vice President candidate? They might be even worse than Donald. Essentially, I think the Donald has been making an effort to campaign against himself. That had been failing, but maybe now things are turning around (Failure is success, and success is failure - Or is that the other way around).

Probably not anything new to report on Trump as a blustering buffoon again, but the latest CNN headline has Trump attacking his former rivals for not supporting Trump's candidacy.
quote: Of course, just three months ago, Trump reneged on his own promise to support the candidate who won the primary. In fact so did Cruz and at least one other candidate. Kinda silly to have made those statements a few months ago, and then to take the position Trump now takes. GOP candidates back off pledge to support nominee | CNN Politics

The exchange where Hillary "you want to have a cup of tea with Iran's leader" Clinton was agreeing with the approach of Mike Pence, but had to concede that the Pro-negotiation side won, and she must bend toward that position and conduct in her role as Secretary of State.

quote: Hopefully, she is more open to negotiation now. This election is offering some really terrible choices (if Pence on the ticket means Trump will bend towards him) on foreign policy. On the GOP side. I hope Trump's war positions will be the dominant trait. On the Dem side. I hope Obama's desire to negotiate has rubbed off on Hillary. Edited by LamarkNewAge, : No reason given.

He is a global warming is a hoax type. I'd call him the Wing Nut's wing nut. But apparently at least one person thinks that Pence is not hateful enough...

No problem here. But then I am using "noscript" with firefox. And I most definitely have not allowed scripting from brietbart. For me, the page loaded quickly and with no readability problems.Fundamentalism - the anti-American, anti-Christian branch of American Christianity

I have personally heard several times from members of that cohort that both parties are essentially their enemies. Obviously neither major party will likely survive this cohort in 20 years without major changes for the better. Probably true. But at least the Democrats have been shown a path for change and there are progressives in the party beyond Sanders (who is obviously not the future for the party). I don't know what the Republicans are going to do about their future. Move further right? Be content with winning gerrymandered state races?

quote: This could very well become a campaign issue as time goes on. Interesting as voters haven't really engaged the issues much. Hillary is going after Trump (and Pence) on social issues, which wasn't what attracted Sanders such strong support in diverse states from Hawaii to Alaska. This could be a fundamentally important issue that draws lots of cross-over support.

I'm a bit worried about all of this.
Last night we had all the people talking about how bad Hillary is instead of talking about how good Trump is ( well, apart from his direct family and some professional golfer). Never heard anything about building that wall. It used to be a battle cry for Trump all over the States; Build that wall...Build that wall. Nothing about that at the RNC. Something's changed in the meantime.

How Hillary Clinton Benefits from Mike Pence as Trump VP
Has to do with the agreement between crazy Mike and Hillary on war issues.

quote: Strange that the Hillary camp blasts Trump as an agent for Russia, yet all evidence shows that he is just wanting N-E-U-T-R-A-L policy on Russia. The DNC (and for that matter Hillary) could learn a little something about neutrality. On multiple fronts.
