    There are people who don't mind when he makes fun of niggers, spics, ragheads, beaners, chinks, gooks, muzzies, cunts and bitches, either! He's just telling it like it is!!! He's a straight shooter!!

    But guess what; he's not the only one.

    Can't imagine Cruz being a Union man. State's Rights and that Texas ceded from the Union and Cuba was a slave nation until 1886.

    One consolation of a Trump victory. Ragu's admonitions about selling assets to buy gold will suddenly be vindicated. I like Ragu, so that'd be nice.

    Luckily the people he hasn't offended won't constitute a majority come November, or even come close.

    He has probably offended them. They just aren't aware.

    You know how when you were 12 you'd read a civics book and think "Why wouldn't they just X?" and it turned out as you got older there was a really good reason they didn't do X, it just took a little nuance to understand why?

    Trump is the guy who comes along to tell you "No, you were a misunderstood genius the whole time! The world just didn't want you to know!"

    Palin was, too. There's a huge market for it. It's labeled as anti-intellectualism, but I don't think that exactly captures what's driving it. It's the same impulse that leads people to rage against sabermetrics. It's unsettling to feel left behind, intellectually, and people want someone to come along and say, "It really is that simple. These assholes are just trying to pull a fast one on you. You're the smart one."

    It was super serious when everyone wanted Trump to take the pledge.

    Now, all of a sudden, it's a joke:

    Umpiring a JV doubleheader and now you want to read this thread? Good God, man. Are you a total glutton for punishment?

    I read those books when I was 5 and 6 years old, and even then I understood goddamn well why you can't just do XXX just because you want to.

    But then again at age 5-6 I didn't have Playboy bunny nannies hired by my multimillionaire daddy to change my diapers and lick my little wee wee clean every morning -- like The Pig.
