    Once the convention is over, any new money will go to a general election fund -- or, maybe more likely, he'll just take the federal funding.

    Or, it will go to a Super PAC.

    He's only got $1.2 million cash on hand. He's not raising much. He's adding staff.

    He's much more likely to loan the campaign more money, that will go unreimbursed, than he is to pay off old loans with new money coming in.

    White males have been the dominant group in American society for the last 200+ years. They don't get to whine about how unfairly they're being treated.

    Hypothetical: It comes out tonight that Trump has flat-out embezzled $40 million from his campaign. You can fill in the mechanics of it, but a newspaper - let's say the Wall Street Journal - catches him dead to rights. An indictment looms. What does he poll at once the news settles? 37 percent, right?

    And no one is. The question is whether or not their beliefs are less credible simply because they're white and male. That's what TigerVols implied.

    Trick question. Everybody knows indictments don't loom for presidential candidates.

    Then what was the point of calling them Old, Angry, White Males? He certainly used those adjectives as pejoratives.

    There were plenty of Old, White, Angry Males taking part in the Democrat sit-in on the House floor today. Did he think the opinions of those Old, White, Angry Males shouldn't be given credence?
