In a list of 12 Signs That Trump Will Win the White House, The #1 sign is: Sign #1: Bernie Sanders keeps winning primaries, while Trump eggs him on. Imagine: He echoes Sanders’ talk on trade while amplifying the idea that Sanders’ supporters are being cheated by a “rigged” process, paving a road for Sanders’…

This list is actually a list of reverse endorsers. #NeverTrump people. What I’m trying to figure out is this: what policy of Trump’s has these people so annoyed? Or what does he know that scares them? Or who owns them such that their owners would be so discomfited? And what ever it is – if…

Mitt Romney: Won’t Support Trump or Clinton, ‘Hoping That We Find Someone Who I Have Confidence In’ as Nominee. Well Mittens, the voters (a lot of them) will be looking for a Party. On second thought maybe you will. There seems to have been a hostile takeover of the one you thought you owned.

From Politico: Even before Trump’s Indiana win, party officials had expressed concern about the state of the GOP’s finances — much of it surrounding the Republican National Committee, which ended March with just $16 million on hand and nearly $2 million in outstanding debt. Taken together, the bank account is a fraction of where the…

World confidence in Obama’s leadership is at an all time high. If you are standing on your head. The position of most pundits these days. In response to a Thomas Sowell piece.

At Althouse: Once you’ve allowed the barbarians through the gates, any swashbuckling ruffian who is willing to pick up a sword and push them back out again is an ally. Suggested by Mike K at Chicago Boys.

Red State has just come out for conservatives to form a third party. I will mourn the party, as I mourn our nation, but if we are to save the nation from progressive, big government overreach, and the creeping cancer of Trumpism, we need other options. I’m not sold on the Libertarian option. The platform…

It is spring. When an old man’s fancy turns to swimwear. Breitbart has it. So do we.     (Normally the length of the video goes here. If that is a concern you are insufficiently interested.)

In my recent post about all the hurting Republicans crying after Cruz dropped out – There Is An Idiot At “National Review” – commenter Man Mountain Molehill left these words of wisdom about the cry babies. Hillary took their balls and went home. Kathy Kinsley suggested that the phrase should go viral. Well, glad to…

JOHN KASICH IS OUT John Kasich to suspend presidential campaign, senior adviser says. The Republican primary is all over except for the voting. Hillary is next.

A West Virginia Coal miner said to Hillary: “I just want to know how you can say you’re going to put a lot of coal miners out of jobs and then come in here and tell us you’re going to be our friend,” Copley said. “Because those people out there don’t see you as a…

An old Jedi joke.

Idiot at National Review? Calling the Department of Redundancy Department. In any case – I present you: Guy Benson – 7:16 P.M. Much to my deep chagrin (& astonishment ~8 months ago), for the 1st time in my life, I will not support the GOP nominee for president. — Guy Benson (@guypbenson) May 3, 2016…

Says this Twitter Feed, which was reported on Drudge. Also reported on Hotgas.         Twitter feed: – “Yet another successful merger for Carly Fiorina.” – LOL

David French said on Blither: If cultural conservatism doesn’t have a future, America doesn’t have a future. Sow the wind. Reap the whirlwind. Of course I responded on a blog that featured the Blather in a comment. Cultural Conservatism should be a private matter. Alcohol Prohibition was enacted with the help of Cultural Conservatives. And…
