Since this morning, I’ve had right wingers in my twitter feed categorically stating that Trump’s rise in the GOP is a direct result of open polling and Democratic party shenanigans.

Right. Every frickin’ poll shows Trump decimating the GOP field - head-to-head, 3-way races, and the current clown bus (short version). Every candidate who drops out inures benefits to Trump.

The next talking point is that Trump isn’t getting endorsements. That has changed in a serious way this weekend as 3 governors - Christie, Brewer, and LePage, 2 Congresspersons, and Jeff Sessions endorsed him - Sessions being important since he’s as conservative and right wing as they come.

One by one, the GOP talking points of “no true conservative” fall apart regarding Trump.

Heck, it’s hilarious watching the NRO extremists complaining about Trump’s racism and white supremacist tweets, when they’ve repeatedly hired (and subsequently fired after months or years) racists and white supremacists. But those hires (and fires) were the crypt-racist variety - just lurking under the surface.

Trump’s racism is out in the open, and his repeatedly tweeting racists, neo Nazis, and white supremacists (trolling or otherwise) shows just where he’s coming from. His language signals the racism, the xenophobia, the misogyny, and hate.

You could have seen this months ago when he went after Megyn Kelly.
You could have seen this when he went full-metal Islamophobe wanting to ban all Muslims from the country (including Muslim-Americans).
You could see it by how he wants to gut the 1A.

On and on it goes.
