Two people see Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, and Jeb Bush in closeup on the television. Man: What comes after Iowa and New Hampshire? Woman: On April first somebody says "just kidding?"
After Iowa and NH the GOP establishment may say “just kidding” and try to select someone to run. Will there be anyone left to listen if they do? But no Republican has ever pulled out a nomination without NH or Iowa. So just kidding? or the jokes on you?
Just kidding, eh? That got me to thinking. Let’s, for a moment, imagine that, just after he’s been nominated as the Republican Presidential candidate, tRump, with great fanfare, of course, almost totally drops his pig persona, blows his RWNJ supporters a yuuuuge raspberry, and says “Ha! Ha! You’ve all been punked!” Their whole world would go up in flames, there’d be riots, and they’d never trust a Republican candidate ever again. What fun! I like the idea. And I think he could do it!Right now, of course, tRump’s toxic. And after a stunt like that, he’d have to fortify every property with his name on it. But it would also result in everyone else having to completely reassess the guy. And if he really wanted to frost the cake, he could then come out in support of his fellow New Yorker Bernie (or more likely Hillary, but…).What a day for a daydream! Either that, or I’m getting cabin fever after being snowed in for 4 days.

This is what’s wrong always with letting Iowa and New Hampshire vote first. You end up with lunatics like Trump and Sanders. God save the republic !

We can only hope people are lying to the pollsters, or that the people who support Trump are far too drunk to go vote when the time comes around……..
