So George Will wrote that Trump is a chemo treatment for the GOP

[The Polack MSgt]

I don't buy that metaphor at all.

If he wants an apt medical metaphor, how about this one?

Donald Trumps campaign is an ongoing MRI showing what's been going on inside the GOP for years

[gopiscrap]

1. how about enema

he's flushing out all the shitstains so we can see who they are

[The Polack MSgt]

2. I don't think that

They have a big enough hose to flush it all out

[gopiscrap]

4. OMG you're right!

[Kennah]

9. I agree

[gopiscrap]

10. love it

[NoGoodNamesLeft]

3. More like an STD

And he infected the GOP rectally...

That's a more polite way to say what I'm thinking.

[GeorgeGist]

5. Sorry George but that's not how it works.

Trump is the cancer.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

6. Lots of people don't survive chemo, Georgie.

[Cosmocat]

7. The whole analogy is based on the thought that it will change

it won't ...

And, the analogy is that the party gave birth to him.

He didn't happen to it, he is a product of it.

[The Polack MSgt]

8. If you spend decades tossing lit matches around

Don't expect sympathy when your house burns down

I love mixed metaphors

[Cakes488]

11. Trashbag is more like the actual cancer than chemo...and it may be terminal

[Hortensis]

12. Trump and strumpsters are a disease symptom, a

purulent, weeping rash on America.

[CajunBlazer]

13. I love the last paragraph of Will's column:

Today, however, Trump should stay atop the ticket, for four reasons. First, he will give the nation the pleasure of seeing him join the one cohort, of the many cohorts he disdains, that he most despises — “losers.” Second, by continuing to campaign in the spirit of St. Louis, he can remind the nation of the useful axiom that there is no such thing as rock bottom. Third, by persevering through November 8 he can simplify the GOP’s quadrennial exercise of writing its post-campaign autopsy, which this year can be published November 9 in one sentence: “Perhaps it is imprudent to nominate a venomous charlatan.” Fourth, Trump is the GOP’s chemotherapy, a nauseating but, if carried through to completion, perhaps a curative experience.

Though I agree that Trump can be best characterized as a cancer rather than chemotherapy.
