If there ever was a convincing argument that the GOP should adopt the super delegate system, Trump would be the embodiment of that argument!
Who in their right mind, would want to work in his cabinet if he made it to President?
He would have to dig up Disney’s best; Press Secretary… Fog Horn Leg Horn.
Secretary of State…Elmer Fudd.
Toon Town would be all a buzz as the Donald presented his picks.
Move over Daffy…there’s a new Donald in town.
“What? Does a little praise for tyranny trouble you in a candidate for President?”
Welcome to America, a nation that has learned to appreciate the comfort of seemingly benign slavery and to prefer that condition to the vagaries of life and the freedom that results.
Holy Mackerel!
Let us set aside who the President is that is being spoken of and consider that this is text from a US Senator to a US Secretary of State.
Senator Blumenthal’s statement is so servile, so wretchedly fawning, and so un-American that it sickens me. This is whete we are, a people so accustomed to an Imperial Presidency that we have dropped the pretense of being a free people. Here is one of our senators, acting the part of a petty minister to a king, not the representative of a free people:
“‘Having the members file through [a special secure room] will provide testimony to the President’s feat,’ Blumenthal wrote in the May 5, 2011 message. ‘They will be not only be acknowledging but also enhancing his power. They will in effect become liegemen bowing before him, but not in any way they will resent or will protest. They will serve as witnesses to the magnitude of what he has done.'”
CONTEXT: This is from an e-mail to Secretary of State Clinton, urging her to make photographs of Osama Bin Laden’s body available to Congress, under tightly controlled conditions.

Wow! Trump in misusing executive action to put down his adversaries would make Obama green with envy. The pendulum is swinging the other way so far that the apex of its swing is at the same point at that from which it swung.
Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus.
Can you imagine his fingers on the nuke-o-blasters:)…party like it’s 1999! Your dead on about the pendulum swing.
E-mail from the Senator to the S.S. is sickening. Boot lickers,no question about it.
“When the mob gains the day, it ceases to be any longer the mob. It is then called the nation. If it does not, why, then some are executed, and they are called the canaille, rebels, thieves and so forth.’
