Maybe someday they will get to meet
the real America. The armed America.
I certainly hope so.

Word from the linen closet inside the London Ecuador Embassy:

The next wikikleaks release of Hilary emails will contain sufficient evidence for an indictment but FBI will probably only use it to extort concessions from her administration if she wins.

I'm pulling a Dan Rather. He said this week
that the space between Memorial Day and
Labor Day is a vast political wasteland. He's
right, nothing makes any difference in the
summer. Now that the primaries are over,
I'm done paying attention till Sept. I'm
blocking all political threads from now till
then, I have way better things to do.

Donald Trump wrapped up a two-day fundraising tour of Texas by telling supporters Friday that Republicans are coalescing around him.

"Let me tell you folks, we have tremendous support — tremendous support," Trump told thousands of backers at a hotel-convention center complex in a suburb
of Houston


Perhaps in the sense of the "Blanket Party" in Full Metal Jacket where all the soldiers put a bar of soap in a towel and hold the guy down in his bunk with his blanket and take turns swatting him.

About Trump conceding, he may already be practicing:

Or maybe he's just a bigot and a moron.

Here we go, the GOP is considering steps to prevent Trump from getting the nomination on the first ballot at the convention.

Really some small section of the rules committee wants to put a clause in for vote. Many hurdles and in the end, is it likely to pass? But we are seeing the true GOP problem... They can't rally around a single candidate.

That has almost no chance of working.

The time to stop Trump was during the primary season. Either the other candidates couldn't, or didn't try very hard. I suppose they figured him for what he is, a silly-season candidate, and expected he'd implode sooner or later. And once they decided the voters were serious, it was too late.

The good news is that as the party won't rally around him, and indeed there will be a series of conflicts about it, he has very little chances of actually winning the election.

The other bad news, mostly for the GOP but a little for everyone as well, is that if Republican voters get too turned off about the whole thing, their party will do terribly in Congressional and Senate races. This may weaken the opposition too much.
