Donald J Trump appreciation thread.
We owe the Orange Anus a big thank you for being the worst major party candidate in the history our country.
He singled handedly sunk the Bush Family's current political ambitions, and any chance of them reviving their credibility in the foreseeable future.
He destroyed any chance Ted Cruz had of becoming POTUS. I believe Cruz was the most dangerous viable candidate to seek the Presidency during my life time.
He completely destroyed the political future of the GOP's brightest rising star, Paul Ryan, using the GOP's own base against it's best hope for 2020.
He poisoned the well regarding the GOP working class base. There is now a huge wedge between the County Club GOP and it's Tea Party base that will be very difficult to overcome, thus easily exploited.
He poisoned the well regarding the ability of the GOP to sell their brand to the rapidly growing Latino population for 2-3 generations. He did such a good job of it, the GOP can no longer rely on a strangle hold it had on Florida's Cuban/American vote. An added bonus was destroying Marco Rubio's dreams of political power.
He handed the election to Hillary Clinton on a Cheeto stained platter.
He tossed in the U.S. Senate, and very possibly the U.S. House on the same platter.
The U.S. Supreme Court will lean left for at least one generation.
There are few Democratic operatives that have accomplished so much, with such ease, then Donald J Trump, and for that, I salute him!

May they continue to exercise such clear-minded judgment for many presidential election cycles to come.
See, two can play that game.
It's not authoritative when Trump does it, either.
The American people are resoundingly more socially liberal than the beltway punditocracy -usually a good decade at least behind the culture- seem to think they are. That's why marijuana legalization is tearing through the country at an increasingly popular pace, while East Coast conventional wisdom types wring their hands and worry about 2004's mythological "values voters".
Ted Cruz? You fucking kidding me? The guy has all the charisma of a snail with a fungal infection. He's gonna get up there and sell the GOP agenda on outlawing birth control and censoring the naked boobs on HBO and teaching creationism in public schools? Sure. Good luck.
Gone over like a lead fucking balloon, that shit would've.
And by the way, all this crap about what a damaged or weak candidate Hillary is; again, bullshit. Hillary has proven herself to be an EXTREMELY strong candidate, and if we hadn't spent most of the election season focused on the dumpster fire that is Donald Trump, that would have been more apparent, front and center.
And he's also made doing the Top 10s every week a lot easier!
