Wouldn’t it be fun to have a time machine and go back to a year ago last May and say that at the RNC 2016, many Freeport would boycot Ted Cruz’s convention speech and applaud both Chris Christy and Rudy Guliani’s.
I’d be zotted in seconds.
Hmm, might last an hour if I said not one Bush would bother showing up, that Mitt Romney would only be there in spirit of supporting Ted Cruz due to a common enemy, and that there would be a standing ovation for Bob Dole.
If someone had dared to predict ALL of the significant developments in the Republican presidential process to date they definitely would have been laughed at. I admit that when Trump first announced I thought it was just a lark, I didn’t think he would go far, although I was not paying much attention to any of it until the primary season started. Then I quickly became convinced that Trump is our one best and only shot at both stopping Hillary and restoring some sanity to at least some national policies.... not to mention saving the US Supreme Court!!
