Trump says he's now ready to throw off his shackles and go after the real enemy: Paul Ryan and the GOP establishment (who he claimed are more treacherous compared to the loyalty of the Democrats... and also called them weak).
http://www.theatlantic.com/notes/2016/10/trump-time-capsule-139-unshackled/503648/

Trump thinks that peace is a lie, that there is only passion. That through passion, he gains strength. Through strength, he gains power. Through power, Trump's chains are broken.
He believes there is no good and evil: instead, he believes there is only power, and those too weak to seek it.
Trump thinks he is the one... the one to rule us all, the one to find us, the one to bring us all back to whence we came from and in the darkness bind us.


Ever notice how much Trump talks about power and strength? Just one overt example here, to show it's been a long pattern for him:

That's probably a prudent idea.  If anyone was likely to get fragged in a foxhole, it's Trump.

There isn't enough popcorn in the world for the current viewings available on GOP TV at the moment.

What's funny is because they are both old as dirt. They'd probably both break a hip.

meghan mccain nails it:

Trump is going nuclear on the GOP instead of Hillary because he knows he's going to lose & is going to need someone to blame when it happens

Boehner: Trump not a conservative and ‘barely a Republican’
http://hotair.com/archives/2016/10/11/boehner-trump-not-conservative-barely-republican/

Former House Speaker John Boehner gave Vice News a blunt assessment of Donald Trump saying, “He’s not a conservative. He’s barely a Republican. He kind of became a Republican in order to run.”

Despite this, Boehner adds, “His ideas, when you can get to ’em, are frankly more in the direction than I would want the country to go to than Hillary Clinton.” “While Donald wasn’t my first choice, wasn’t my second choice and for that matter he wasn’t my third choice…but he’s the nominee and I’m going to vote for him,” Boehner says.

Speaking of Trump’s opponent, Boehner tells Vice, “I like Hillary Clinton. I’ve known her for a long time, worked with her. She’s not a bad person, but it’s just…be more of the policies we’ve seen out of the Obama administration.”

By Trump logic. If the GOP Congressmen were good at their jobs, Obamacare would have been repealed years ago.

Has anyone read through Breitbart comments lately?  Some of them are literally frightening; as in, people are calling for revolution, violence, and civil war if Hillary wins.  Is this the future of political discourse on the right in the United States?

Never read the comments unless you want to give up on humanity.

Now she should run for President in 2020 if the GOP manages to survive, she'll just hit 35 before Election Day.

Lol, true.

But I think the question of whether this discourse will continue to pervade a significant faction of the right in this country is still a valid one.

Never seen O'Reilly struggle through an interview like that. Like "WTF am I doing here?"
