Trump not being the nominee

If the GOP Elders wanted to create havoc they would ditch Trump

and nominate Ryan-Kasich a midwestern ticket

We would be in a real horserace

and bait and switch

resisting, yielding, and then pushing back harder in another direction

probably with a real sounding candidate who plays hardball

That said, narcissists become more extreme as they age and will do
anything to maintain their sense of power and importance

some get crazy as they age

Scalia was letting it all hang out in the last years of his life

I takes no more than about a minute for Scabrous Joe to kick in with the Passive Voice - "Trump knew how to play the media..."
And it just lays there. It's as if he has no self-awareness at all. He doesn't acknowledge that he's part of "The Media", and he damn sure won't admit that he got played.

And Kasich helps him out by saying basically, it's all those other guys - they did it - but not you Joe.

These people have no soul and no honor.
