“Unfortunately I think Donald Trump’s over reaction is as dangerous as Obama’s under reaction,” – Carly Fiorina

What the actual fuck are you and Carly Fiorina talking about? By “fiddling and misplaced priorities,” I assume you mean gun control and religious tolerance.

The actual fuck = placing more importance on fighting the climate change boogeyman than terrorism, continuing to piddle around with ISIS, spouting more worthless platitudes without any real strategy, and generally leading from the back as he has done for much of the last seven years.

OK, dude. You keep living in your pretend world and see how that goes for you.

you know things are getting weird when Bebe and Dick Cheney think you’re too extreme.

The fix is in. Sanders campaign reports a security glitch in the DNC voter database, and the DNC locks out Sanders from his own voter data. Coincidentally, the CEO of the company who operates the database is an open Clinton supporter and their CTO actually worked on Clinton’s 2008 campaign.

Cruz and Kasich are both out on the republican side. Looks like Trump is their man.

Just when it looked like the Republican party couldn’t get any worse…
Trump is officially their nominee.
What a disaster.

[Ned23]

I’m still not ruling out a party revolt at the Convention. Maybe Cruze or Kasich know something and they’re keeping their powder dry and their campaign money in the bank.

Looks like I’ll be doorknocking for the Democrats this year…

[scarletandgrey]
