That his campaign has gone on this long surprises me. I somehow don't think he really wants to be president.

That would be admitting defeat and there's no way in hell he will do that. And he doesn't give a crap about the party. I wouldn't be surprised if he went third-party just to fuck with them, because he'd be a spoiler, the Dem candidate would win, and he could say to the GOP, "You didn't support me, so look what I was able to do to you."

I think he was only half-serious to begin with, but now he's riding the tsunami of idiocy that has been out there in the populace for a long while now. And he's enjoying the view from atop that wave. If he were completely honest, I'd bet he'd admit to being at least somewhat surprised.

The assorted half-wit monkeys, cave orcs and bridge trolls are now in the middle of the Republican dinner party scaring the cat, taking bites out of the dog and pooping in the corners of the room. They want Il Douche and won't settle for anything else. And the Cruz critters are even WORSE if that's possible. They are royally screwn as a party.

Serves the bastards right. They built this Frankenstein Monster. They won't be heard to bitch about it getting loose and tearing the castle down on top of them. Rust in pieces, asshats. See ya in the sulfur pit.
