Trump

New week, new weirdness.  As the saying goes...curiouser and curiouser.  If you've been following the Republicans (and how could you not if you turn on the news!) Trump, Cruz and Rubio are going at each other pretty hard.  It's become a low down, knock out campaign.  We've seen this kind of stuff before, it's just that most people don't like it.

Now there is a flap about the KKK.  Trump was asked about an endorsement from David Duke, a notorious KKK grand wizard.  He said he had never heard of Duke and couldn't comment.  Huh?  That doesn't pass the smell test.  How could he live in the world day to day and never had heard of Duke.  The answer is he couldn't.  Check out this article. 

But here's the thing.  IT WON'T MATTER.  This is the guy that has insulted John McCain.  He made fun of handicapped people.  He called Mexicans rapists.  He wants to ban Muslims from entering the country "until we can figure out what's going on".  On all these things he is a blabbermouth and incredibly shallow.  But...IT WON'T MATTER.  I just don't get it.  Of course, the media says it's over and I have some fear that it is.  But that is balanced by faith in the American people.  I'm hoping they will come to their senses.
