I see no upside. Maybe somebody else was going to leak it and Donald wanted to preempt and try to control? But I don't see any attempt to control it. Also it had much less of an impact than I would have expected. Except for Carly's jab about it, nobody else even mentioned it, that I remember. Seems odd to me as it seems like it'd be perfect to use to accuse Donald of being phony.<br /><br />I just think they don't know what to do with Trump. They are scared to death of the Trumpettes and a third party run. They must be thanking Jesus for this latest Trumptastrophe.mlbxxxxxxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05931351723996391533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-16132767812687806192015-08-08T10:01:37.582-04:002015-08-08T10:01:37.582-04:00Beinart's piece is just wishful thinking.

It seems like all republicans are mouth breathers but it really is only a vocal minority -- a large minority, but a minority none-the-less. Trump looked like he could break out and go GOP-mainstream. Maybe it's not too late. Fingers crossed.mlbxxxxxxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05931351723996391533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-60806737544499807742015-08-08T08:46:58.153-04:002015-08-08T08:46:58.153-04:00OMG, the comment thread on the post about this at ...OMG, the comment thread on the post about this at HotAir is epic--1000+ and counting! You've got Trumpbots attacking Erickson and Ed Morrissey (who came out strongly for Erickson's decision), men attacking women commenters, and even those against Donald can't bring themselves to base that on his misogyny—they're pivoting to the "he praised Canada's single payer" excuse.Curt Purcellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12580782572650471362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-44185310022419121332015-08-08T08:42:55.012-04:002015-08-08T08:42:55.012-04:00His comments about Kelly will only further endear ...His comments about Kelly will only further endear him to the misogynists in his base.Victorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06609452382111686086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-90067134788398498382015-08-08T08:32:33.232-04:002015-08-08T08:32:33.232-04:00Trump may have jumped the shark with the apparent ...Trump may have jumped the shark with the apparent reference to Kelly menstruating.

I just think so much of his appeal is that he is uber rich.mccamjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06219447000482810272noreply@blogger.com
