Krauthammer: The coming train wreck

Does Mr. Trump not comprehend the import of this election? With Supreme Court Justices to be chosen and any number of oppressive actions by Obama's departments and by his executive orders that must be cancelled, can't Trump see what his candidacy is likely to do to this nation? Mr Trump is about to give the presidency over to the most dangerous people that could run for that office and who, along with Mr. Trump, should never be considered as serious candidates. TD

 Political Cartoons by Nate Beeler
"Trump did not exactly advance his needed outreach with his reaction to the Wisconsin result: a nuclear strike on “Lyin’ Ted,” as “a puppet” and “a Trojan horse” illegally coordinating with his super PACs (evidence?) “who totally control him.” Not quite the kind of thing that gets you from 35 percent to 50 percent."
Charles Krauthammer


"Yes, the big Wisconsin story is Ted Cruz’s crushing 13-point victory. And yes, it greatly improves his chances of denying Donald Trump a first-ballot convention victory, which may turn out to be Trump’s only path to the nomination.
Nonetheless, the most stunning result of Wisconsin is the solidity of Trump’s core constituency. Fundamentalist Trumpism remains resistant to every cosmic disturbance. He managed to get a full 35 percent in a state in which:
● He was opposed by a very popular GOP governor (80 percent approval among Republicans) with a powerful state organization honed by winning three campaigns within four years (two gubernatorial, one recall).● He was opposed by popular, local, well-informed radio talk show hosts whose tough interviews left him in shambles.● Tons of money was dumped into negative ads not just from the Cruz campaign and the pro-Cruz super PACs but from two anti-Trump super PACs as well.
