Usually we have to wait until the county fair in September to see a demolition derby, but this year there’s one in March, March 3rd, tonight, in, appropriately enough, Detroit, on Fox News. That’s right, folks, step right up, time for another rollicking Republican primary debate. We’re expecting to see an extravaganza of Trump-bashing sufficient to make us all long for the tender mercies of W, Rumsfeld and Cheney. This morning’s New York Times documents in detail the huge array of anti-Trump forces at the ready, noting…
The urgent new efforts, led by a group of corporate executives, financiers and Republican strategists, came as more party leaders expressed fear that Mr. Trump’s nomination would taint the party with a stigma of bigotry and recklessness.
(No kidding, Dude; italics mine.)
The only point of suspense concerning tonight’s debate is whether or not New Jersey governor and former candidate Chris Christie (whom the Times’ Gail Collins is calling Trump’s Chewbacca) will get to stand behind The Donald on the stage.
Bring plenty of popcorn.
Meanwhile, in other news of moment, the city of Portland Oregon has been attacked by toxic moss (that’s right, moss); some kids at Harvard have the mumps (that’s right, mumps); and one Clinton campaigned for the other one, possibly illegally, in Massachusetts (what else is new?).
