TRUMP. NOTHING BUT TRUMP

[HairOfTheDog]

I know Donald didn't have a very big campaign staff and now I'm wondering if not one person has ever told him about the size of the Hispanic voting bloc. His approval rating among Hispanics is the lowest it has ever been for someone in his position. No one has ever been rated lower.

I'm sure he's aware of the historical significance of the Hispanic vote and the Republican party's desire and strategies to try to improve its standing with that demographic.

But, in my opinion, Trump cannot put his personal agendas and emotions aside for the good of the party or the good of the country, based on his statements and behavior to date. And, while Republican leaders who've reluctantly gotten behind him have claimed that Trump will tone it down and become more presidential, Trump has said he's not gonna change. The GOP has its hands full alright.

I think Trump is really legitimizing Clinton's "loose cannon" characterization and embarrassing Republican leaders with his disturbing comments and rationale in regards to Judge Curiel, which also put into question Trump's understanding of the judiciary and constitutional separation of powers.

Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, John Kasich, and Newt Gingrich are attempting to do damage control on behalf of the party, which necessitates denouncing Trump's thinking, statements, and behavior. Gingrich hit Trump the hardest and this morning Trump told the media that Gingrich's 'scolding' was 'surprising and inappropriate'. Yep, Newt is treating Donald Trump very poorly, very unfairly indeed! I think that a Trump/Gingrich ticket is probably less likely as a result.
