The Repug Field Of Candidates Is A Joke & Now With Trump In It - It's Become Really Laughable....

When will the Repugs realize that they are doing more harm than good with their brand and that the bulk of American People will not take them seriously for anything that they say?

Not that I care that they are destroying their brand - but what are they thinking?

Already they are on the wrong side of just about every issue. Now their field of candidates - every day - are trying to say something more outrageous than the next in order to get any kind of publicity in the media.

And I hear that there are more of them going to announce their running for the presidency.

Personally I don't see how in the end when their nominee emerges that the various factions of their Party - created by all those running - are going to be able to rally around their nominee.

Any thoughts?

4. My Trump anecdote

I worked at Dulles airport, and Trump came through once in a while. You could see his bright red hair bobbing along in the crowd, and somebody would always spot him right away and say, "Here comes Donald Trump." I don't remember anybody else standing out from the crowd in such a dramatic way. He didn't seem to be a butthead or anything, but it was obvious he craved attention, and he always seemed pleased that so many people recognized him.

I hope he does well enough in the polls to be in every debate.
