    Are you capable of stringing together one sentence without a single vulgarity?

    "Christian America" sees Trump's flaws.

    But, they also see that he was willing to fight to win the Presidency, and keep it from falling into the hands of Hillary Clinton.

    Other Republican candidates would have lost, and those that would have had a chance to win, would have rolled over in the face of the opposition they would have faced from the left and from the media.

    Yeah, but did you know Trump won in a landslide?

    It's funny too.

    The left was used to Republicans sabotaging themselves with purity fights.

    But, this one time, the party -- or at least enough of them -- got behind the nominee, and they won.

    And, now, the shoe is on the other foot. Democrats are the ones having the purity vs. electability fight, and I hope they go with purity.

    What's the game being played with Milo?

    It's not like CPAC didn't know this video wasn't out there.

    It's all part of the code. "Chicken pizza" is code for sex with a child. "Adult men should be allowed to have sex with children" is code for a large thin-crust with mushrooms and pepperoni.

    Trump does have a point to make, but he doesn't make it well.

    Trump won more electoral votes than any Republican candidate, who wasn't a sitting President or Vice-President -- in other words, who didn't have the power of the incumbency -- since 1980.

    Now, that's not as great as his claim, but it's no small thing, especially if you're interested in winning elections.

    They - well, we - paint themselves/ourselves that way.

    C'mon, YF.

    That's like saying someone won the batting title with a .297 average because the rest of the league kind of sucked that year.

    If Trump had any capacity for shame or embarrassment, he might care.

    Fair enough, but I don't know how it's germane to the rise in anti-Semitic threats.
