MIXED UP

Here's what happens to a candidate who gets used to just answering questions off the top of his head

https://www.washingtonpost.com/video/politics/trump-punish-women-who-get-illegal-abortions/2016/03/30/fea5378c-f6b4-11e5-958d-d038dac6e718_video.html
Trump: Punish women who get illegal abortions

Start the timer: http://www.vox.com/2016/3/30/11334558/donald-trump-abortion-punishment-twitter-pro-life
Everyone — even pro-lifers — hated Donald Trump's abortion comments

http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/trump-backs-abortion-ban-calls-punishment-women
The Trump campaign issued a slightly longer clarification this afternoon, which read as follows: “If Congress were to pass legislation making abortion illegal and the federal courts upheld this legislation, or any state were permitted to ban abortion under state and federal law, the doctor or any other person performing this illegal act upon a woman would be held legally responsible, not the woman. The woman is a victim in this case as is the life in her womb. My position has not changed – like Ronald Reagan, I am pro-life with exceptions.”

[NB: So, he says directly that they should be punished, then issues a "clarification" -- love that word -- reversing his position. That's not a clarification. And the original footage isn't going away any time soon. The current Trump Company line is that the evil media, in the person of Chris Matthews, somehow tricked him into a misstatement. Good luck with that one!]

Will the damage linger? http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2016/03/will-trumps-abortion-gaffe-actually-hurt-him.html

It gets worse

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/03/30/donald-trumps-abortion-comments-prove-again-why-he-could-be-a-disaster-for-republicans/
And, while Trump's comments on abortion are the news of the day (and problem of the day for Republicans) what they expose is an even more troublesome reality if you are hoping to run and win as a Republican with Trump as the nominee: He is wildly and deeply unpredictable.  Today these comments on abortion. On Tuesday, a refusal to condemn a campaign manager charged with battery. On some other day a retweet of a white supremacist. Or a slam on Hillary Clinton's looks. Or a fight with Pope Francis. Or a less-than-full throated dismissal of a violent incident at a rally. . . .

The depth of Donald Trump's ignorance is inexplicable. Seriously. How is it that after nine months of campaigning he still knows less about most subjects than your average guy in a bar working on his fourth beer?  At the CNN town hall last night, an audience member asked Trump, "In your opinion, what are the top three functions of the United States government?" . . . But watching last night, it was obvious that Trump had no idea what to say. . .  [read on]

The GOP race just hit a new low.

Here is what I think today. While some in the GOP are trying to get used to the inevitability of Trump as the nominee, it appears that there is a larger group in the establishment who would rather lose the election than see that happen. Whether Trump is the nominee or not, it's a disaster either way. But the disaster of this bullying, bullshitting buffoon as the national candidate will tar the party for years and embolden the worst elements to think that the party now belongs to them.

Does Donald Trump hate women? And I guess this begs the question of what is misogyny? I don't want to put myself forward as an expert on the issue, for obvious reasons. But looking just at Trump's case, it is not hatred of women per se but hatred of powerful women or female power itself that is the defining trait. In a society where women have become more powerful in all aspects of life for decades and where gender equality is a defining political issue, the distinction may be rather semantic. But this is about power and being out of place in the proper hierarchy of power which has Trump at the top at all times. . .  [read on]
