More Headlines

By Zamboni

In the days after a Presidential candidate appears to wrap up a major party's nomination, you usually see positive headlines about unity, endorsements and support. Kinda hasn't happened on the Republican side in 2016, though.

After a post-Indiana day of denial, the GOP has just had its first full Day o' Drumpf. And here are some of the headlines we've seen:
  • Trump Tweets Picture Eating Taco Bowl, Says "I Love Hispanics"
  • Bush 41 and Bush 43 Plan to Skip Republican Convention
  • Portman Not Interested in VP Slot
  • Susana Martinez Not Interested in VP Slot
  • Ben Sasse Calls for "Adult" Third-Party Candidate
  • McCain Caught on Tape: Trump Hurts My Chances
  • RNC Denies Staffers Were Told to Back Trump or Leave
  • Romney to Skip Republican Convention
  • Woman Who Led Trump Tower Construction Supports Clinton
  • Anti-Trump Group to Hold Call on Possible Third-Party Challenger
And last but not least, this:
  • House Speaker Ryan "Not Ready" to Back Trump, Deepening Republican Divide
If politics, like economics, is the allocation of scarce resources among competing interests, today was a lost day for Donald Drumpf. We cats PURR.
