I think this article is right on the money. Trump is done. He needs to take his five steps and that will be it. There is no recovery. He is finished. We are just waiting to see him keel over, politically speaking.

Bye bye, Donald. We hardly knew you.
Really. Megyn Kelly showed that she is a tabloid reporter. She lost many people who used to be fans.

Pubs should look at Trump as a self-inflicted wound.

They said that after his "rapist and murderers" comments.

Then they said that after his McCain comments.

His numbers went up after both, so I wouldn't count him out just yet.

Keep dreaming because you know in your heart that Trump is in this for good either as a Republican or as an Independent.

Time will tell. Trumps own worst enemy is his mouth.

Of course that same mouth catapulted him in the polls.

In all likelihood, she gained at least 10 times as many new fans as however many she may have lost, which I suspect in fact was not very many.

True (I'm surprised her FB page wasn't shut down), but I never liked her. She is a lightweight.

Cool. Another Trump thread. That means he is winning.

You know what we need to heal the caustic political and social divides plaguing us as a nation? Political extremism and intransigence.

I am far more interested in the candidates who are interested in REAL substantive national dialogue than the political grandstanders that have become the face of American political discourse. That is why it kills me that a candidate like Bernie Sanders is cast aside. Of course some of his views may be radical, but he is genuine and ostensibly well regarded by politicians in both ideological camps.

Sometimes I wish I lived in a hut in the middle of the woods to avoid the vitriol on the 24 hour news cycle. Trump is playing the American public like a fiddle and laughing his way to the proverbial bank.
