If I had $10 for every time the Washington Post said that ______ is going to keep the Republicans from the White House, I'd be driving the car pictured above.

In the 45-minute “festival of narcissism” that was Donald Trump’s rambling presidential announcement, one particularly nasty passage proved him to be a menace to the Republican Party. It was the one about Mexican immigrants.
The U.S. has become a dumping ground for everybody else’s problems. [Applause] Thank you. It’s true, and these are the best and the finest. When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.
That plays well with many far-right Republican primary voters desperately clinging to an America that no longer exists. But such rhetoric is the death knell for the GOP — and the party knows it. The Republican autopsy of its thumping in the 2012 presidential elections was blunt in its self-assessment. “Asked to describe Republicans,” the report notes on page 8, “[focus group attendees] said that the Party is scary,’ ‘narrow minded,’ and ‘out of touch’ and that we were a Party of ‘stuffy old men.’ Sounds like Trump.

You know what? Maybe I don’t care if a Republican gets into the WH. Being betrayed is worse than the devil we know. I’m more disgusted with Boehner than I am with Pelosi. Pelosi is loyal to her voters. McConnell/Boehner/Ryan…they are just wh*res.
Truth hurts.
Jonathan Capehart hates Republicans - his ‘concern’ for our well being is a joke.
Capeheart’s defending rapists? Hmm.
Trump is right.
He needs to call Rubio and Jeb out for the blood on their hands with the immigration mess.
I agree 100%.
desperately clinging to an America that no longer exists///
They like the new one where for, I think, the first time in history, a country has knowingly not protected its borders and is on the verge of bankruptcy now supporting 10 million illegals? Where 100,000 crimes were committed in Texas alone by the “act of love” folks.
I might throw up.
NO.. wrong.. it’s voter fraud that will keep republicans out of the White House..
YOU KNOW...... like the last two elections..
that republicans did absolutely nothing about.. ON PURPOSE..
THEN; re-elected Boehner and McConnell to be the democrat “snitches”..
mere comments mean nothing..
Trump is right.
Yes he is.
How is that the truth? Unfortunately there are more rapists in the U.S. than Mexico. We shouldn’t allow a person from another country to simply return to their country without punishing them. But Trump wouldn’t even do that. He’s an anti-American pig.
“College rapists” rhetoric will get the vagina crowd to vote Hillary for President.*
* even though Hillary laughed about getting a child rapist off his charges and blaming the victim

Wow, a Marxist calling a Repub a racist; how novel.
Pray America is waking
I don’t like Trump and make no bones about it. Having said that Trump will be useful in saying some things none of the others will say.
His speech KO'd both parties, D.C., government and all those who own them.
El perfecto!
He’s not saying anything to help Republicans. He’s doing it to bash them. Do you think Stephen Colbert should be president too?
Trump/Colbert 2016!
Donald Trump is unique in his own mind....he couldn’t keep anybody out of the White House...
