A man and Donald Trump sit in front of a casket that holds the dead republican party. Man: One more item on the convention punch list... open casket or closed?
Soooo the Republican party listens to the will of the people and they are dying? Unlike Democrats where people overwhelmingly support Sanders and the nomination is taken from him and they are thriving?….After Obama threw the gay community under the bus after Orlando.….After both Obama and Hillary wrote off the “blue vote” and supporters of law enforcement?
It is going to be a brawl in Cleveland. Ryan has climbed on board and is ready to sound the alarm to release the crazies. The Republican party is fighting for a freer and stronger America by not allowing certain people to come to the country and starting preemptive wars with inadequate equipment. The Republican party wants an America where everyone has the opportunity to achieve the American Dream as long as they were born white and wealthy. Here come the Trump Train, are you on or off? Republican Conventions Delegates are not “bound” to Trump or any other candidate, so this could come down to dirty tricks and a whole new Republican leader (chosen by the elite) to embrace, or Trump, chosen by the bigoted members of the party.
Who’da thunk it? The Republican Party, founded in 1854 as a progressive, liberal, anti-slave party is dying as an ultra-conservative, anti-freedom, corporate master/wage slave loving party.
Open. There was a scene in “King of the Gypsies”. When he died, his worst enemy came, not to pay respects, but because “I wanted to be sure the SOB was dead!”
You Do Not Represent Us: An Open Letter to Donald TrumpDear Mr. Trump:
At the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, students are taught to represent the highest levels of respect and integrity. We are taught to embrace humility and diversity. We can understand why, in seeking America’s highest office, you have used your degree from Wharton to promote and lend legitimacy to your candidacy.
As a candidate for President, and now as the presumptive GOP nominee, you have been afforded a transformative opportunity to be a leader on national and international stages and to make the Wharton community even prouder of our school and values.
However, we have been deeply disappointed in your candidacy.
We, proud students, alumni, and faculty of Wharton, are outraged that an affiliation with our school is being used to legitimize prejudice and intolerance. Although we do not aim to make any political endorsements with this letter, we do express our unequivocal stance against the xenophobia, sexism, racism, and other forms of bigotry that you have actively and implicitly endorsed in your campaign.
The Wharton community is a diverse community. We are immigrants and children of immigrants, people of color, Muslims, Jews, women, people living with or caring for those with disabilities, and members of the LGBTQ community. In other words, we represent the groups that you have repeatedly denigrated, as well as their steadfast friends, family, and allies.
We recognize that we are fortunate to be educated at Wharton, and we are committed to using our opportunity to make America and the world a better place — for everyone. We are dedicated to promoting inclusion not only because diversity and tolerance have been repeatedly proven to be valuable assets to any organization’s performance, but also because we believe in mutual respect and human dignity as deeply held values. Your insistence on exclusion and scapegoating would be bad for business and bad for the American economy. An intolerant America is a less productive, less innovative, and less competitive America.
We, the undersigned Wharton students, alumni, and faculty, unequivocally reject the use of your education at Wharton as a platform for promoting prejudice and intolerance. Your discriminatory statements are incompatible with the values that we are taught and we teach at Wharton, and we express our unwavering commitment to an open and inclusive American society.
Should be interesting. The anti-Trump faction is growing.
If they succeed, who do the Republicans select?Cruz? Marco Polio? JEB!?Or one of the other candidates, like Santorum, Jindal, or Huckabee?
Or maybe Willard the ChickenHawk, who is eagerly awaiting being drafted — this time he promised not to run away.
There’s also some rumblings that Trump may quit, that he was never serious in the first place. If he quits, the same questions apply. And would he do it before or after the convention.
And, of course, what if Trump gets the nomination and runs.How many Republican candidates will mention him?
Would that this cartoon were true. Alas, however, there will always be a market for xenophobes, for people who put religion before science, worshippers and willing slaves of the rich, people whose psychological conditions cause them to prefer massive armaments to using a society’s wealth to make a better living for all, as well as preferring war to peace, who don’t care at all about the environment, who think that XY is better than XX, neurotics who think that everyone is out to get them; in short, people with an easy acceptance of social inequality, and who love the concept of bellum omnium contra omnes because they, for the moment at least, have the upper hand.If they were capable of rational thought, introspection, or even a modicum of human decency, they might begin to understand why their political views are so thoroughly detested.

It’s not the GOP that’s dead, it’s the hypocritical pretense that their policies are any different from what Trump spews.
