Painful-ly funny Viewing - Ben Carson Stuck in the GOP Pipe




He was joined by Donald Trump in the log jam, and then it just went downhill from there

I kept picturing the scene from The Sound of Music where the Family Von Trapp never came on stage in the conclusion of the film despite repeated introductions.

I knew a guy like Carson. He was a top anesthesiologist, considered to be quite an authority in that field, but he could barely tie his shoelaces. Maybe it's a thing with doctors?

I watched it a few times, looking for their physical cues and faces.

Poor Sleepy Ben. He really should go back to brain surgery. Oh, no , wait that might be good either.

Cruz give him a look that said "wtf ya, chump?!"

Trump knows enough about live TV to understand the fuck up, roll with it, and go with it when he sensed the least embarrassing possible entrance; which doesn't always work out.

At first,Jeb looked like someone who would call his mom about entering the Nuclear football codes. But then gave them a look like that smug Yale frat boy saying 'sorry suckerrrs!'

Rubio was like 'excuse me; get out of my way... I'm important', then moments later "what about Kasaich.... Can I introduce Kasaich?"
