Donald Trump Puts Egg on My Face

I posted that much earlier when Donald Trump entered the Presidential race he was in for a long two weeks. Boy was I wrong! With every outrageous thing he says he gets further ahead in the polls. So, yes, Don I have egg on my face!

And this is killing the media. There is not a single media outlet in existence that hasn't already crowned Jeb Bush with the nominee title. I have never before witnessed the media trying so desperately to get to pick who the candidate will be. And they are obviously frustrated because so far all their efforts aren't working.

I think they want a Clinton/Bush rivalry again so bad they can taste it. But guess what? I don't think Hillary is going to be the candidate anyway. They should probably start to push as hard to make her the candidate, because although they are assuming she's a slam-dunk to get the nomination, they are sadly mistaken.

But anyhow, now I have changed my thought process. I so want Trump to get the nomination. He should get to grandstand and talk about all of his expertise. As a businessman (bankrupt 6 times) and on and on.

And to my Democrat friends. Stop bitching about Trump. It's not our place to have a voice in who their candidate is. It is our job to help get our candidate elected. So lighten up.

Because honestly this will be like shooting fish in a barrel. I really don't think he'll last long enough through the process to get the nomination. And he did wimp-out and placate the alarmed Republican machine (remember when he said he was not willing to say he wouldn't run as an independent if he didn't get the Republican nomination?). Well, since then Donnie Spineless has caved in on this issue and has signed a statement saying he won't. Hopefully it wasn't legally binding.

And I cannot wait to ask my Republican friends, "So in a crisis of extreme complexity can you see Donald Trump making rational decisions in the Situation Room?"

But go get 'em Donnie. Get that nomination.
