George Will leaves GOP over Trump:

Quote
“Make sure he loses,’’ Will told PJ Media, an online news company, in an interview Friday. “Grit their teeth for four years and win the White House.”

Will, a long-time columnist and commentator, spoke Friday at the Federalist Society luncheon. “This is not my party,’’ he said during the speech.

According to PJ Media, Will said he has changed his GOP registration in Maryland to “unaffiliated.’’

This was a long time in coming.

George Will is a principled, intelligent man who just happens to have some different opinions about the role of government and religion than I do. Still, I have the highest respect for him as an individual. No place in the Republican Party anymore for his kind! I'm sorry his Party has left him.

I actually have several friends with very different opinions from me, and they all are sincere, all are honorable people.

Reasonable people can disagree reasonably about issues. At least Will believes in his ideas. That's more than one can say about most of Republican thugs.

George Will, you were once a conservative who I often disagreed with but still admired. Sometimes I even agreed with you, most times I didn't but I respected your intelligence and your serious approach to issues.
Then YOU JOINED FOX NEWS and I lost all respect for you.
Now, as a member of Fox, you are a CO-AUTHOR and architect of the very machinery that CREATED the kind of society that welcomes Donald Trump and yet now you wish to leave your party?
No sir, you made your bed and you WILL sleep in it.
I will always refer to you as George F. Will, REPUBLICAN.
It IS YOUR PARTY, you helped make it what it is today, a-hole.

Even former Bush Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson has had enough of the Trumpet and is running for the Hillz.

Every day Donald Trump demonstrates another reason why he is unfit for office - really any office. When asked about Henry Paulson, the architect of bank bailouts, he said,"I don't know who he is." When asked about Credit, he says, "I don't know what that is. When asked about his foreign policy advisors, he says, "they don't know much." He thinks running an economy is like running a golf course. He thinks foreign policy means speaking loudly and hold his big stick. He really believes people should just trust him and he'll make it all better, even if he has no idea what that means on any topic. The man is, simply, a lunatic, and believes he is entitled to be appointed president because he's rich.


A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.

Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich

It seems that Herr Drumpf is tanking in the polls. I imagine it will be all downhill from here.

You are right, Jeff. All of these Fox talking heads share the blame for this catastrophe called Trump.
