A great op-ed on the rise of the Trump monster

Quote:
Trump is no fluke. Nor is he hijacking the Republican Party or the conservative movement, if there is such a thing. He is, rather, the party’s creation, its Frankenstein monster, brought to life by the party, fed by the party and now made strong enough to destroy its maker.

I thought of Trump as the Obama made monster. People are p*ssed, what did you expect, everyone to keep laying down and take it?

Our politicians wouldn't fight Obama so we present Trump.

And yet he would be a vast improvement over the maniac in the white house today.

Funny that these same people didn't recognize the Obama monster in 2008.

That's because they were saying adios to the Bush monster.

Because they thought he wouldn't last a minute. Some people thought Obama wouldn't last. Ask Hillary.
