Here's an interesting aside. You know when you accidentally get sucked into reading the comments and get scared that so many people seem to support Trump (or just seem crazy in general)?

It may not be as many as you think.

Trump has the biggest rallies, they're the best rallies, yuge, they're turning people away at the door...

This is all pretty remarkable. I really haven't seen anything like it before

The press is on a full-out onslaught against Trump. Everywhere you look, there's virtually nothing positive being published now. And he's got virtually the entire Washington establishment (from both parties) out to burn him at the stake.

OK, so, now Trump has a new team, comprised of some of the most hated, vicious pit bulls in the junkyard. I really can't see how that's going to help. From where I sit, it appears it will only make it a lot worse. But it will likely become very, very entertaining before it's over.

It'll be interesting to watch the flames as the craft plunges downward into the desert though. And the mushroom cloud afterward. I've never seen one of those.

The only trick will be keeping it going until November.

Trump before classified briefing: I don’t trust US intel | TheHill

"Hours before he is set to receive his first classified intelligence briefing, Donald Trump said he does not trust information coming out of U.S. intelligence agencies and indicated he would cease relying on the bulk of the intelligence community’s massive workforce."

I guess the Russian intel is better.

I'm willing to bet that Trump's plan all along has been to become a right-wing media celebrity. I see a Trump cable channel in his future.

- Welcome to Trump's world, Trump's world, woo hoo excellent. Party on Pence.

- Party on Trump.

Following Herman Cain's footsteps.

And then we will hear about the election being rigged for the next 20 years.

Foreshadowing on my part.

He's added the Breitbart twat and Ailes has been his silent partner for a while now. Apparently, the Trump campaign is quite concerned that there may still be some undecided Aryan's who've been holed-up in their meth labs and have missed the campaign up until now.

Well I read the change was because Trump didn't like hearing in the press he had been "tamed". So expect even more batshittery.

Unpossible. One cannot tame a vacuum.

Perhaps Ailes was brought in to lock up the women vote.

In binders perhaps?

That's exactly right. That shows how echo-chambery this has all become.

And now for some mindless fun:
