| I shouldn't have been staggered that in saying that he could 'shoot people in the streets and still not lose support', Trump clearly hadn't even paused for a second to consider how that might sound to everyone who has lost someone in one of America's numerous firearms-related tragedies.
But I was anyway. What a fucking idiot. |

| Matt Frei's The Mad World of Donald Trump was revealing, well to those who probably don't know that much but showing that Sarah Palin endorsement was as bewildering as the first time I saw it. The SNL pisstake was marginally more sense-making. |

| Someone more in the know will have to explain to me why GOP hopefuls keep on trotting out that woman. It was ludicrous eight years ago when McCain did it, but with everything we have learned about the Palin clan since then... |

It was indeed ... some of it I already knew, but the likes of Trump Tower having been built by illegal Polish labour and Trump's businesswear range being made in India and China I didn't. So immigrants/non-American labour are fine as long as they're working for you Donald, eh? As for Palin, I think it's her leading by example when it comes to conservative family values that they like. You know, like her son beating up his girlfriend and her mother-of-two unmarried daugher. |

| Another good night for Donald, who I think will easily roll to the nomination with a majority of delegates if he wins Ohio (Florida is in the bag with Little Marco collapsing) and gets the momentum through the winner-take-all contests. I'm still not sure how Lyin' Ted is doing so well given that he isn't even eligible to be President. |

| Trump asks for a show of support at one of his rallies by way of the crowd raising their right arms. Nothing terrifying in the political imagery that's reminiscent of, then. No sirree Bob . |

Nothing terrifying in the political imagery that's reminiscent of, then. No sirree Bob . Sorry, but for anyone to draw comparisons to Nazi Germany is just plain silly. Hitler would never have a black brain surgeon, or black pastor endorse him. Or Mike Tyson for that matter. |

Florida's 99 are all going to Trump. Ohio is a bit more of a tight-race. |

| I agree that he'll take Florida. The momentum was with Kasich in Ohio last week but I think the events in Chicago over the weekend will rally conservatives to Trump - especially since Little Marco, Lyin' Ted, and Kasich sided with the violent rioters. He also got a nice endorsement from Pete Rose! - Blunt Instrument wrote:

| I need to go to a Trump rally so I can get some punches and eye-gouging in He's got Arizona and its delegates in the bag...but needs to restrict Cruz to less than 50% of the Utah vote to prevent Cruz from walking away with it...polls have Cruz ahead. |

| After the events in Orlando I think Trump can safely start moving his furniture into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
The mental gymnastics I'm seeing from the regressive Left are truly beyond parody. Today I've seen Australian leftists criticise the PM for labelling it a terrorist attack and not a hate crime (as if previous murders of infidels by Muslims aren't driven by hate) and that he has no moral high ground because he hasn't immediately legislated in favour of gay marriage (something which he's actually in favour of, but the majority of his party voted to hold a plebiscite by year's end that will most likely pass in the affirmative anyway - the injustice of it all!)
So there you have it, according to the Left, going a few more months without gay marriage (after several millennia where it was a non-issue for straight and gay alike) is morally equal to - if not worse than - mass murder.
This is why Trump will win handsomely. Not even at the height of the Cold War was the Western Left so flagrantly self-loathing as it is now.

| Just wish Trump's initial reaction had been sympathy for the victims and their loved ones, as opposed to 'Told you so!'.
Then again, sympathy for gay people from a Republican is probably too much to realistically ask for. |

He's been saying it will happen all along, then one of these sheep-fuckers come along and does precisely what he says. And it will keep happening in Western countries where these acrimonious jihadis exist. And the BS 'sympathy' face will come from the politicians who help make it happen by letting muslims do as they fucking please and then calling it a religion of peace. Open up the country and let another million flow in and build mosques all over the place and then watch the country go to hell. I hear one radical London cleric boasting about 30% numbers. What happens when they hit 51%. It will be too late. I am so disgusted with Londoners I feel to spit on the fucking screen. |

'Our nation stands together in solidarity with the members of Orlando's LGBT Community.'Trump's not your run-of-the-mill bible basher. |

| Ah, fair enough. I heard Cruz had expressed sympathy, but it's being seen as hypocrisy given his previous Billy Bible-thump proclamations on homosexuals. |

I am so disgusted with Londoners I feel to spit on the fucking screen. Have you ever lived in London at all? Or visited? When was the last time? Have a look around and you'll see that most live in harmony. I'm glad I live here and not a country where a homicidal maniac fuelled by homophobia, religiously motivated or not, can acquire a semi-automatic weapon with great ease. And it will only get worse once Trump puts his feet up in the White House - when that happens, most of the Western world will be disgusted. Hell, I'm proud we have Sadiq Khan. |
