Background: Milo troll-splains Trump.
The GOP currently has a magnet for every bile-spewing columnist in the media world. So what do a bunch of ‘serious’ Republicans think?
“We don’t want that.”
No, apparently, they’d rather have the NYT crap all over Scott Walker or Jeb Bush. The Party of Stupid, indeed.
Oh, crap.
It’s official. The silly season has started; this buffoon is going to announce.
Tuesday will be a big day for our country to do a complete turnaround. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

Update: A link for everyone who has forgotten who Trump really is.
It’s begun.
At least this time, one of the R’s is running on the right thing.

Your Moral And Intellectual Superiors
Betting your life is a good reason to demand more from media than “knowing what we know now” gotcha questions regarding past national security decisions.
The worst gotchas are framed to elicit a simplistic answer that reinforces or advances a political narrative. To do this, the talking head must either drastically simplify the past (a relatively benign act) or erase the inconvenient past (a deceitful act).
False premises shape the gotchas I’m deploring. Decision-makers in the past cannot know what we know now. These gotchas usually imply that an alternative decision would have produced a more benign alternative history. They may also presume a shared “enlightened crowd” viewpoint of current knowledge — which may indicate political or social bias.
Indeed. It should alarm us that a) media are fixated on this deceitful question, and b) Republicans are falling over each other to answer it.

Political stuff
Alberta is voting on May 5. After destroying Wildrose, Premier Prentice goes for his mandate.
Rand Paul is in.
A motivated Democratic volunteer.
Lois Lerner will be working tirelessly for the Democratic nominee. The statute of limitations is five years.

Of course he does: Since he first started editing her page in June 2005, Hillary’s “Wikipedia watchdog” has been guarding against slanders, accusations, unfair assumptions, and distortions on the high-traffic, heavily footnoted, highly policed Hillary Rodham Clinton Wikipedia page.

Scott Walker
Has been my #1 pick for a long time. He knows how to turn around a troubled state, and he knows how to win against the worst the left can hurl at him. And for his running mate…Carly Fiorina.
Share your own early picks for the 2016 Republican slate in the comments. Bookmark this post, and I’ll figure out some prize for the person whose prediction turns out to be most accurate when the Republican nomination dust settles. One prediction per reader, and entries close midnight Friday.
The Pencil
However – when Howard Dean called the Governor “unknowledgeable,” he rolled out more than a stereotype. He rolled a pencil across the desk, and gave Scott Walker eight minutes to knock it out of the park.

It is not hyperbolic to declare Hillary Clinton the most paranoid presidential candidate since Richard Nixon…
