Prickly City by Scott Stantis for April 12, 2016

Actually Hillary has received more votes than Trump. But the Republicans pride themselves on being the fact-free party.

Something I am actually curious about: who is/are the Republican ‘establishment’? Priebus, probably but who are the others? Any examples? Seriously, who comprises the establishment? Who’s the Republican’s Republicans?

The TEA Party just asked for smaller government, which the GOP says it is, or is said to be, in favor of.

Too much democracy is exactly what the Founders worried about

Night-Gaunt49Jim Hightower says it it a kleptarchy – the rule by thieves.

I’m voting for William Henry Harrison. He likes log cabins and cider and he took care of that Tecumseh fellow.

As I’ve asked many a people, “Why do you think they call it the simple majority?”

Ah, the Tea Party… Small government: just enough for a huge military and the benefits they themselves collect. “Keep your government hands off my Social Security and Medicare!”I’m hoping, when the GOP implodes, it will emerge as a reasonable political party and the TP (or whatever it is these days) will be a marginal group of crazies never to affect an election again.

Last thing: “He’s crude, rude and socially unacceptable.”And this is why Drumpf, Sr told him, “We develop Brooklyn and Queens, not Manhattan.”He knew Little Donald wasn’t in the class that controls Manhattan. But Donnie forced himself in, and that’s why everything has to be gold-plated, to convince himself that he fits in, even while everything screams “Nouveau Riche slob.”
