Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump responded in an interview aired Sunday to reports that GOP officials had discussed what they would do in the case of a contested convention.
Trump said in the interview with Fox News’ Chris Wallace that he was “sorry” to the Republican leaders.
“Look, I understand what they’re going through. I wasn’t supposed to be here. I was a member of the establishment seven months ago,” Trump said. “I’m not supposed to be doing this. You see I’m supposed to be on the other side writing checks and having people do whatever I want, puppets, like puppets.”
Wallace asked Trump what his response was to the GOP officials.
“I say, folks, you know, I’m sorry I did this to you, but you’ve got to get used to it,” Trump said. “It’s one of those little problems in life.”
“I say, folks, you know, I’m sorry I did this to you, but you’ve got to
get used to it,” Trump said. “It’s one of those little problems in
life.”
…
So now Trump’s ruination of all we hold dear is a “little problem”?

Jesus tap dancing Christ… we’re going down the tubes folks if this travesty gets elected. Does he not realize that he will destroy what took 2+ centuries to build?
Slowly shaking my head back and forth, a somewhat perplexed look on my face, I have this to say: What a fucking bizarre exchange.
“I’m supposed to be on the other side writing checks and having people do whatever I want, puppets, like puppets.”
Lays bare the whole rotten system.
He doesn’t care if the country is destroyed. He just wants his ego stroked.
As he brazenly pretends that he “isn’t on the other side writing checks and having people do whatever I want, puppets, like puppets.”
The duality and deception is Trump’s application of proven Bernaysian principles. There is nothing new under the sun, only new branding.
