Donald Trump Seeks Republican Unity but Finds Rejection - The New York Times

…the first question of the first Republican debate in the ongoing horror show that this election season has come to be—will you pledge to support the eventual nominee—and everybody raised their hand except Donald J. Trump  (horrors!). Trump eventually came around. 

It was an attempt to get the Donald to promise on the record he wouldn’t run as a third-party candidate if he didn’t win the Big Nod. But now, of course, he is official nodee, and all those other guys who pledged, they really did, oh yeah, in front of our very eyes they would now won’t. 

And if that doesn’t tell you what the word of a politician—especially these politicians—is worth you really ought to find another hobby. I hear cricket farming is good.
