Again, this GOP Primary Has Been Perfect so far and it's all Thanks to Trump

     In an earlier post I discussed the fact that Scott Walker-who with his sagging poll numbers is desperate to do something-has followed Trump down the Let's repeal the 14th amendment rabbit hole.

    As I've repeated many times, there is no downside to Trump.

   What's amazing though is how it just keeps on getting better. Even from my post about the 14th amendment repeal it' gets better.

   "Walker repeated his call for a border fence between the U.S. and Mexico on Monday similar to the one separating Israel from Palestinian territories in the West Bank, said there should be “no sanctuary cities in this country” and “I don’t believe in amnesty.”

 “I was in Israel earlier this year, they built a 500-mile fence and they have it stacked and it’s lowered terrorist attacks in that region by about 90-plus percent. We need to do the same along our border, we’ve obviously got a bigger border, about four times that, but we’re a country that should be able to hold that,” Walker said while speaking on the Des Moines Register soapbox at the Iowa State Fair.

 "Not too many people visit the West Bank and say, “You know, I wish America could be more like this.”

 Again, Trump is just pulling off one of the all time greatest troll jobs in Presidenntial history-maybe you have to go back to the old pre civil war Know Nothing campaign.

I say this whether it's intentional or not. And he knows his audience.

To understand why this is so great you have to remember Scott Walker is one of the alleged serious candidates-he's one of the Holy GOP Trinity in this race comprising him, Jeb naturally-who remains the favorite-and Rubio.

All three of them are doing very poorly post debate. The media seems to be wrong that Rubio and Kasich did so well.

For Walker to come out for stands like this simply makes him radioactive for the general election. To recap:

1. He's now for banning all abortions even if the mother's life is at stake.

2. At least 'exploring' overturning the 14th amendment

3. Building a West Bank like wall.

Rush and friends are totally behind Trump now.

Rush declared 'Bye, bye, anchor babies.'

For all that Rush is right-the GOP establishment is responsible for Trump.

"Look, folks, let me just tell you: The Republican establishment learns the wrong lessons from everything. It has become obvious to me. Whatever large or small issues happen, they learn the wrong lessons from it, such as they lose an election and say, "Oh, my God! We better shore up the Hispanic vote. We better agree with the Democrats on amnesty." Wrong. Just as an example. The Republican establishment, if they're trying to figure out Donald Trump, they need to stop looking at Donald Trump."

 "Donald Trump does not explain Donald Trump. They explain Donald Trump. There's a reason Donald Trump's doing what he's doing, and that's because nobody else in the Republican establishment is. Forget... Political parties have always been responsive to their voters, until now. Now we've reached what I think is a real seminal moment. And that is, the Republican Party establishment has joined the Democrat Party establishment in looking down on its own voters."

At the end of the day, immigration is going to rip the party apart. It's already started thanks to Trump.

No downside.
