If he names a staunch conservative, the question would be how deeply held his convictions are.

By all accounts, Trump is totally serious about running for President this time. Huckabee is the latest to state that Trump is in it for real this time (http://www.mediaite.com/tv/huckabee-lauds-trump-2012-bid-but-obamas-birthplace-not-a-big-deal-to-me/). And if Trump is serious, how far would he go to satisfy his ambition? Although not really a social conservative, would the White House be "well worth a conservative justice or two," to paraphrase Henry IV of France? (He was a Huguenot during the Reformation religious wars. He wanted to become the King of France, and needed to convert to the Catholic Church to do so. He is alleged to have said, "Paris is well worth a Mass"). That story may be apocryphal, but ambitious people will do almost anything to get what they want. What would Trump do?

“ambitious people will do almost anything to get what they want. What would Trump do?”

Right now he’s pounding Barry like a jackhammer. And he will keep it up, as he slowly but steadily increases the power and frequency of the blows.

The problem for Barry and his handlers is how Barry handles stress. He admits that he self medicates—all the way up to cocaine—and this the one part of Dreams I believe. Alcohol is presumably more available to him under the circumstances than cocaine, and there is ample evidence he makes full use of it. I’ve seen pics where anybody not wearing full on blinders knows Barry has a hangover the size of Manhattan.

Nothing about this situation is going to improve as Trump ups the ante. Sure, people have been predicting a meltdown for a while now. It’s on its way. The vacations are coming ever more quickly on the heels of each other. Does anyone doubt that the availability of substances other than alcohol are one reason for them? Barry is a trainwreck waiting to happen; Trump is just kicking it into a higher gear.
