Why is it that someone who takes such pride in himself for "saying it like it is" has such a thin skin when others do the same, but he doesn't like what they say?

An incredibly UNhealthy level of narcissism?
If business acumen is all you need to be a successful president, we should be electing Kim Kardashian. She's arguably more successful than Trump.

Otherwise known Thrasymachus kicks Socrates ass and there ain't a thing Socrates can do about it.
Which reminds me. The Republic. 350 damned pages of not addressing that Justice is the Will of the Stronger. And it stands a test of 4000 years? What's up with that? Is that like the greatest advertisement for being a lawyer, ever?

OTOH, I would so be watching Bill Kristol:Renegade Jew if were to air on AMC or the like.
I spent 90% of the money I made on women, booze, and drugs. The other 10% I just pissed away.

Re: The Art of the Donald Trumpocalypse
That the Republican Party is going to launch an attack on Bill Kristol. Holy shit.
And in banks across the world

And every other race, creed, colour, tint or hue

Well he's slowly drifting out of range

I'm eager to hear Jim Miller's take on this.
In any year, even that would be enough to get a politician toxic enough to dump. Today, it just rolls off. Tis a glorious thing.

Re: The Art of the Donald Trumpocalypse
Donald Trump Is Not Expanding the GOPWhile Trump’s insurgent candidacy has spurred record-setting Republican primary turnout in state after state, the early statistics show that the vast majority of those voters aren’t actually new to voting or to the Republican Party, but rather they are reliable past voters in general elections. They are only casting ballots in a Republican primary for the first time.
A POLITICO analysis of early-voting data show little evidence for one of the Republican nominee’s core claims

That would be more persuasive if hepcat actually posted to that SJW strawman, unlike Rip who posted images hosted by white power groups. (Which he fixed at least.)
So get over the false equivalency. Find the non-racists who have a good reason to support Trump. I just don't see it with all the questionable stuff that disturbs even the GOP's leadership.

Gee, I wonder why they would do that? They must be really, really, really stupid if they thought that doing so would help Trump, so maybe they had ulterior motives? Maybe they like the way Obama has nicely divided us, and want us to stay that way. Trump offers a slight chance for a fix, the other camp just offers the same ol' same spiral into eventual chaos.

The "ugly women" comment is not Trump's.“For every one he’ll lose 1½ , two Republican women. Trump’s comments like ‘You can’t be a 10 if you’re flat-chested,’ that’ll come back to haunt him. There are probably more ugly women in America than attractive women. People take that stuff personally.”
