The Election Where Republicans Showed Their Best Candidates Until 'The Donald" Hijacked The Process [Picture, Video]

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


his was, according to many commentators, going to be the election cycle Republicans got to show off their “deep bench.” The race for the nomination would include experienced governors like Jeb Bush and Scott Walker, fresh thinkers like Rand Paul, and attractive new players like Marco Rubio. Instead, however, Donald Trump leads the field by a wide margin. What happened?

The answer, according to many of those who didn’t see it coming, is gullibility: People can’t tell the difference between someone who sounds as if he knows what he’s talking about and someone who is actually serious about the issues. And for sure there’s a lot of gullibility out there. But if you ask me, the pundits have been at least as gullible as the public, and still are.

For while it’s true that Mr. Trump is, fundamentally, an absurd figure, so are his rivals. If you pay attention to what any one of them is actually saying, as opposed to how he says it, you discover incoherence and extremism every bit as bad as anything Mr. Trump has to offer. And that’s not an accident: Talking nonsense is what you have to do to get anywhere in today’s Republican Party.

      There are NO good Republican candidates. EIther they are deluded, science hating or Koch brothers minions (aka Scott Walker). THey have NO interest in helping the middle class or poor. Just the Rich. TO Hell with them all.

        SO VOTE FOR THEM YOU CRETIN!!!!!!

        Why do you want a government whose careers after being elected make the middle class redundant through ‘representing’ them? Those not represented by the government that is in power are those who have power over them. Look at the joke tof queers and dog f*ckers that is 60% of Muricans politics. Screw the working class as I assume you just mean immigrationist terrorists and rapists by that term.
