The Don

Yeah. Bork is not a reasonable parallel at this point. Sorry, B.

As for Trump, as boorish and weird as he was during the debate, I admit to watching the Bush-Iraq part with some interest. Being confronted with a (nominal) republican saying not just that the Iraq war was a mistake, but that the public was misled about the reasons for the war did pull the curtain back a tad on where the party is.

Bonus points for Rubio, moments after Jeb had made fun of Obama for blaming the ills of his administration on GW Bush, blaming 9/11 on Clinton.
 
He's already attracting Blue-dog Ds. He can snag other disenfranchised sorts with this tack. He's no idiot despite the rhetoric.
 
I've always kind of figured that the threat of that is what's kept the party proper from really lowering the boom on him. They would seem to be the clear losers in that scenario.
 
Goodness, what a change a few days makes. You Ds ought to be giddy. You get to flip SCOTUS completely and you've now got the prospects of a Trump 3rd party run that will cement Hillary's coronation. You and the banks. ;-) Sorry about that last jab. I couldn't help myself.
 
Trump's foreign policy rhetoric has been the only thing he's said that I partially agree with.

The republicans are idiots for not embracing the "Iraq was a mistake" rhetoric. Just own up to it and move on
 
Trump receives first Senate endorsement.

I think it was meant as an endorsement

I'm shocked, I tell you. Just SHOCKED!

The New York Times is sitting on an audio recording that some of its staff believes could deal a serious blow to Donald Trump, who, in an off-the-record meeting with the newspaper, called into question whether he would stand by his own immigration views.

Trump visited the paper’s Manhattan headquarters on Tuesday, Jan. 5, as part of a round of editorial board meetings that — as is traditional — the Democratic candidates for president and some of the Republicans attended. The meetings, conducted partly on the record and partly off the record in a 13th-floor conference room, give candidates a chance to make their pitch for the paper’s endorsement.

Why is this a story? Which candidate actually does plan to stick by his/her campaign rhetoric?

"First of all this guy is a choke artist, and this guy is a liar"
"Nasty guy!"
"Go Ahead"
"Don't get nervous"
