50. As nutty as McCain is sometimes, and as virulently as I

Sat Sep 19, 2015, 01:08 AM

Sep 2015

disagree with him most of the time, I thought he showed class that one time when he was doing that town hall in 2008 and some lady lathered up by right wing talk show hate gave the same spiel. Remember?

McCain said, "No, Ma'am, he's not a Muslim. He's a good man, but we just disagree." Something like that.

Now we have the t-Rump and he doesn't even have the guts to correct the ignorant hate-rant. And it isn't even really Trump's total classlessness that bothers me, even though the man is completely devoid of class.

It is his followers. Now we must all ask the question if the Republican establishment, who clearly wants to get Trump out of the race, succeeds, what will his followers do?

Brown shirt, anyone?
