Heat 

More heat than light on the campaign trails.

Senator on GOP backing Trump: 'Party has gone batshit crazy'

Of course I like this. Lindsay Graham is an old hand, an old guard GOP guy. I like him. The loyal opposition.

He is dismayed.

This is the party of no-party now. It has wallowed and wavered into the hands of the nuts and extremists.

There is no strong party structure to reign it in although lord knows they have tried.

For awhile, I found this amusing. But now? Not so much.

One could argue that the Republicans brought this on themselves. But that is just an empty jibe.

The fact is that their disarray is indicative of their complete defeat under the Obama Presidency. They cannot or do not legislate. They engage in partisan bitch slapping. They wiggle and waver.

That said, there is not a lot of life left in either Party. The Clintons have re-engaged the Democrats so that a guy like Sanders does not have a chance.

I am not a historian but it would seem that the two party system is dead. Long live the no-party system?

At least on the Democrat side, the Clintons will not engage in fratricide as Trump is doing.

His 25%, unwavering. The malcontents. Ironically, the no-nothing guys in the uneducated class.

The poor guys favor the guy who inherited 200 mill and has made bucks off their backs since day one.

Oh well.

“No one in this world, so far as I know — and I have searched the records for years, and employed agents to help me — has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people. Nor has anyone ever lost public office thereby.”....H.L. Mencken
