26. I'm gonna predict this so-called "front runner" of the GOP will fall HARD...

... based on the insanity line of prediction, it's about to blow. As Friday night unfolded, I sat with my husband in front of the TV, first seeing the more objective Al Jazeera America's footage. We then flipped around the predictable "cable news" teams. They've clearly gone off their rocker.

Starting with the ugly, anti-protest commentary that looked just like Fox "news", the talking head woman with longer blond hair could have been straight from the brainless team of Fox news, but no, this was CNN.

I will no longer bother with cable news. I'm hoping against hope that some entity will pick up the splendid job that the only remaining sane Al Jazeera offers after they are finished in April.

CNN jumped off the deep end and are as insane as all those "make America hate" Drumpf ralliers. We sure are gonna see something before the end of this month that when done will show us what we are witnessing to the point of putting an end to this insanity. We can't take much more of this.

I want to thank these two guys for presenting this rally story. This REALLY tells it like it should be told... Up front and personal.
