Trump has a certain way of warping reality so if anyone can pull off the Etch A Sketch it's him. I think that might be too much even for him though.

his reality bending effect only seems to work on a certain subsection of the population though, if not on the same wavelength it's just offputting

looking back, i think walker could have actually been a contender, especially with all of the koch money backing him, if he had just had someone who had been able to slap his credit cards out of his hands and make him stick to some kind of campaign budget; i think the only thing that spared us a lot more intense walker participation was that he literally went broke like a month into the campaign process.

Although poor planning and no campaign money was the reason he dropped out, don't forget that within the span of two debates Walker's support went from the mid-teens to 0%. Even surrounded by nine other retards on the stage he came across as someone who was so far out of their league intellectually. He also has an appearance less presidential than Ted Cruz.

"That's what they all say!"
The Time 100 Most Influential People just got announced. Trump and Cruz are on there, of course, but so is Reince Priebus!

quote:

The party boss

Reince Priebus has almost single-handedly turned the Republican National Committee around. That success—and the doggedness behind it—doesn’t surprise anyone who knows him. He worked his way up through the ranks, starting as chairman of my congressional district’s Republican Party. When he became national chairman in 2011, the party was pretty beat up—and about $25 million in debt. He paid it all off, and he fixed the political, digital and data infrastructure so that we can compete on a level playing field with the Democrats. Our presidential nominee will have the best-equipped staff in history. Through it all, Reince has been a great friend. We’ve known each other since the early 1990s. My longtime chief of staff Andy Speth was his close friend in college. In stressful times, I often turn to Reince for advice. And I’m glad to say I’m still one of the very few people who know how to pronounce his name.

Silent Majority
The Don
LORD COMMANDER OF THE UKRAINIAN ARMED FORCES
As his battered host lurches towards Pennsylvania, Lord Crooze ponders atop his giant rat. Idly he feeds a bogel to the grotesque creature. The Glotch chomps it greedily.

Suddenly Crooze sits up straight in his saddle, and turns to a weary intern. "That is your woman, up there, in the column?"

The intern nods warily. "Yes m'lord....she is..."

Crooze nods. "Bring her to my tent tonight. I will have her."

The men around him fall silent. Crooze changes the subject. "I have decided, we will steal those unbound delegates in Pennsylvania."

"Isn't that rather ignoble, m'lord?" Lady Fiorina says.

Crooze scowls. "This is the system. This is how the primary works. It may not be perfect, but by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, it is the best one we have."

"Amen," the interns mutter. The Glotch rears up and squeals, shattering many nearby eardrums.

Talk about debasing your humanity. I can't see why Trump would want to pick any one of his former competitors. Or that anyone of them would crap out the last of there pride and say yes. Except maybe Christie. I could see him do that.

Trump seems like the type to pick someone completely unknown and under the radar so as not to distract from the glory of Donald.

I remember him saying that he'd pick someone who has a history in politics, so I decided to check up on a guy who's been under the radar for several years now.

Oh god, can you imagine if Rubio came begging for the VP slot? He's out of the Senate and his terrible campaign performance might've damaged his chance for Governor, maybe he could pull a Christie-style Hail Mary.

It'd be worth it to see those two standing next to each other on stage behind Trump.

We wish politics could draw as many diehards as sports. At best this primary (and maybe the GE) is comparable to a middling reality TV show with okay enough ratings for a new season.
