...
is the self-destruction of the Republican party. this is a big story, one of the biggest of our lifetime, and political science grad students will be writing theses on it for many years to come. they will be grateful to the media whores for the exhaustive minute-by-minute coverage of everything the Vulgar Talking Yam has said or done in the last year.

the Trump coverage is 100% justified, although i think many in the audience and some in the press, maybe most, are thinking it's there for the wrong reasons.
