The GOP’s Descent Into Darkness

The GOP’s Descent Into Darkness

Brent Larkin: “History will recoil in horror over the Donald Trump freak show, a descent into darkness that represented a seminal moment in the breakup of a once-great political party.”

“From an organizational and logistical standpoint, Cleveland threw a perfect event. As host of the Republican National Convention, it was a city prepared to handle any problem. The list of people who deserve credit for that is a long one – with those involved with making downtown Cleveland the planet’s safest place worthy of special mention.”

“But while Cleveland’s preparation and execution earned rave reviews, the GOP’s part of the program was an utter failure, something that seemed drawn up by the faculty at Trump University.”

“Then, on Thursday night, things turned scary.”

This will be their third loss in a row. Each of their candidates (McCain, Romney, and now Donald Dumbf@#*) is worse than the last one.
