Quote du jour

If the Trump train isn’t stopped by some extraordinary coup de main in Cleveland, several months from now Republicans will have to ask why they let a disaster unfold rather than trying to stop it. The honest among them will have to admit they were just pawns in a grand con that led the cause of conservatism and the GOP into an electoral disaster that might have been averted. The rest can go golfing in Scotland while Hillary Clinton thanks the political gods for a venal opponent like Trump.
