With President Trump a real possibility....

Doesn't it make you feel all warm inside knowing that at least we have the Patriot Act in place?

Thanks so much to all those Senators that voted for the Patriot Act to keep us safe. Hillary, pointing at you and smiling dear. Thanks so very much. Your judgement was, once again, outstanding.

I'm sure a President Trump and his appointees would never, ever, use the Patriot Act to their personal or political advantage. Would they?

Got to go, there's a knock at the front door as I type this....

OR the GOP leaves the SC seat vacant.

Other than that... we don't have a prayer of beating him.

The Republican establishment will do all it can to prevent Trump from becoming the nominee, which really says it all. They know he can't possibly win the general election. It's still possible for Trump to fall short of winning a majority of the delegates, but the danger in choosing someone else at the convention is that Trump might run as a 3rd party candidate.
