Default 14 minute somewhat hostile interview with Trump

Per Oren:
Why would any real conservative support a candidate who is
clueless about conservatism. The National Review just had a
whole issue devoted to 22 leading conservatives exposing Trump
for what he is, which is no conservative.


A good read. They say what you and I have been telling Tumpies here
for awhile.


On last night's Charlie Rose they were discussing the Republican Party's
dilemma.

What I took away:

- The Republican party is divided into roughly 3 constituencies:
+ The Angry
+ The Socially-Conservatives and Religious Fundamentalists
+ The Establishment

- Trump has The Angry

- Cruz has The Socially-Conservatives and Religious Fundamentalists

- The Establishment is currently getting split up among at least 4
candidates.

- The dilemma is that, unless The Establishment can unify and get behind
one guy, either Cruz or Trump is going to get the nomination and
neither one looks strong enough against Hillary.
