MSNBC seems to have jumped off the Hillary wagon even before CNN. I think Hillary will be more unpopular than Nixon.

I have noticed an odd shift in the MSM. They're still very anti-Trump, but the anti-Hillary sentiment is growing. I think they realize hitching your wagon to someone that's going to be insanely unpopular is probably a bad idea.

I think we need to start wondering about her odds for re-election. Can the Republicans get their shit together in four years? Based on what we've heard from them regarding Trump's run, I doubt it.

They couldn't do it in eight. Is another four going to help? The bonus is that whoever they run in the next election is going to look like George Washington compared to Drumpf.

This was my biggest concern with a Trump win. Say he were to win. The next 4 years would be about the rift between the Republican DC establishment and the Trump Davidians. Guess who doesn't have a seat at that table? The small government Constitutionalist. This would be the final nail in the Tea Party (or anyone that believes in limited government) coffin.

That's going to happen regardless of who's in the Douche House this coming winter. The establishment got its ass beat badly. That strategy will be copied next time, and someone else will try to rally the same base. Cat's out of the bag. Same way the jack-asses have to worry about a new Bernie. The votes are there to exploit, someone will whore themselves out to get them.

Truth. Bernie was appealing to the same group of people that got Obama elected.
