Future President Donald J. Trump (aka Мудак Mk.2)?

[Arneb]

My money won't be on Republicans growing spines, of all things. Slime glands, relaxing anal musculature, wider recta, reflexive belly positioning when seeing orange - but spines? Hardly.

Exhibit A:John Ron de Sanctimonious

[Richard A]

Well, Ron de Sanctimonious is now out of the race and back to focusing on Florida, where he can and will continue to do harm.

That leaves Nikki Haley as the last challenger standing. And interestingly, she does believe in NATO.

Reading that, one almost gets nostalgic for the staunch lean-state (except the military), transatlanticist, socially conservative Republicans of old.

For the German readers, I point you to an unusual but not less damning criticism of Hailey's stating how she could have taken a risk and lambasted Trump for what he needs to be lambasted for in the eyes of a conservative: His bad economic record, his losses at the ballot box, his threats against Republic, his ahistoric and uninformed threat to commit treason on NATO, his schmoozing with dictators, his criminal record, etc. - but didn't, because she is, "Too Cowardly for the Fight Against Trump". Interesting point.

Never has anyone been more angry about someone refusing to admit they lost.
