    So Trump's speech today was him not accepting any responsibility in the crap he put out there about Ted Cruz and his Father's supposed aid in going after JFK.

    This guy is showing to be the worst at taking responsibility for his actions.

    Of course there were a million other things wrong with his speech, but his desire to weasel out of actions that he's done is fascinating to me.

    It's especially true when after using the BS tactic of impugning Cruz' father and beating Cruz, he still feels he has to weasel out of it. What slick politician thing to do for someone who's supposed to be an outsider.

    Yea, that's Trump real danger. He's likely to lose, but he has open up a flood gate of angry, hateful mindset and elevate it to almost a norm - of a powerful political party.

    To be fair, the election of Obama emboldened them to levels not seen since the 1960s.

    It looks like the shooter was a Trump supporter.

    1. Pretty obvious that the "ad" is meant to be taken as satire/attack. Nobody in their right mind would read all the hyperbolic language in it and seriously think that it is an actual ad for the Trump Organization.

    2. Luis Miranda in that email chain is not the father of Lin-Manuel Miranda.
