The Manchurian Candidate August 6, 2015 12:42 pm ER

http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/bill-clinton-called-donald-trump-ahead-of-republicans-2016-launch/2015/08/05/e2b30bb8-3ae3-11e5-b3ac-8a79bc44e5e2_story.html

So, let me see… Bill Clinton talked his Liberal pal and Foundation contributor Donald Trump into running for President as a Republican as a means of throwing the GOP into disarray, thereby paving the way for Hillary in 2016. And you must admit, The Donald has yet to recover fully from the humiliation at Obama’s hand during his Birther phase (remember the night Bin Ladin got wasted?). He’s so desperate for revenge he’s not thinking straight.

How deliciously diabolical! Man, this has to be the best conspiracy theory since the one about Obama deliberately faking problems with the Obamacare website to provoke the Conservatives into making fools of themselves by cheering prematurely for its demise, only to see it miraculously “recover”, functioning perfectly, only a few weeks later.

Is everyone ready for the big GOP debate tonight? We used to have a Klown Kar, now we have a whole damn demolition derby: Mighty Trump and his Air Band, they might even get inducted on the spot into Cleveland’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Actually, I predict that it will be a huge disappointment. No one will want to pick on the Donald and risk getting a broadside from him, and I think he will try to play it cool and not start anything he can’t handle; after all, as the poll leader, he has the most to lose. The moderators have an incentive to not embarrass the Right and will be under strict instructions to keep the whole proceedings under control. It may turn out to be exquisitely dull, after all.

But you never can tell, can you? The whole affair is fundamentally unstable, and could easily slip out of control. No one knows for sure how this will turn out. Right now, the only sure loser is FOX itself. They’ve got the whole Conservative nomenklatura pissed off at them, the propaganda arm of the Party, for organizing the event and rigging the rules so it arbitrarily cuts off some of the most respected and qualified Republicans from participating while putting fantastic bombastic Trump on center stage. Since he showed up, no one’s been talking about emails, or Benghazi. Its all about Trump and Bernie.

I’m definitely going to watch, it might yet turn out to be a real hoot.
