The Republicans’ Big Hot Mess
In the Year of Trump, Republicans are racing for the exits.
.. one of Trump’s advisers recently suggested that the candidate not wait until the climactic hour to deliver his remarks but, in a break with precedent, speak every single night.
.. Now they’re looking at four excruciating days that will be light on appropriate speakers, short on cash
.. Politico published a story noting that Trump’s vice-presidential finalists may come down to the puny band of miscreants who can bear to say yes.
.. but how many blacks and Hispanics will be willing to buttress Trump?
.. So I suppose they stand sheepishly at the microphone and rant without interruption about the evils of the Clintons. Do politics-soured swing voters really crave hour upon hour of that?
.. Chris Christie is at the ready, with a hunger for attention that’s not quickly sated. So maybe we get several scoops of each of them, with an omnipresent topping of Trump.
