Looks like it's starting to affect Wall Street:

Quote:

A growing realisation that the unpredictable New York real estate developer is in a position to win the Republican nomination and then battle Hillary Clinton for the White House in November's election has caused some investors to sell US stocks. They fear having such a wild-card president could trigger trade wars, hurt the economy and add a lot of market volatility.

"It's one thing to run casinos that have gone bankrupt, it's another to run a country and its foreign policy."

"As the market rarely feasts on lack of predictability - Trump represents a nightmare for investors this year," said hedge fund manager Douglas Kass of Seabreeze Partners Management, who said last week that he was adding to his existing short bet on the US stock market in part because of Trump's increasingly strong position in the race.

Read: light might be shone on their shady practices.

The useful idiots will crawl out of the woodwork to support the status quo, seemingly unaware that they are working in the interests of everything they profess to hate - wall st, mass media, political cartels etc.

Oh and Cruz is winning Texas of course.

Another two weeks could wrap it up for Trump but we'll wait & see.
What he has to do now is turn his attention to Hillary. These other guys can't hurt him now so why keep bickering.

There must be a heap of stuff to start throwing at Hillary: a failed state in Libya, now a base for ISIL, secrets betrayed in emails, corruption going back for years. . . .in fact everything bad in the last 20 years she had some influence on.
And don't forget, Donald, the label that she is running for Obama's third term.

Look at the Millennials, everybody.

So.smacking.Sad. Every single one of them. (Texuuns, too. Gross.)

Millennial 1: "Who are you voting for?"

Millennial 2: "Why the same corporate/capitalist fascistic oligarchs as you with their incredible level of hypocrisy who really run this media and political establishment."

Oh, and the bugger with any one of those toolsacks running if they ever said one pig-friggin' god damn thing on foreign policy or democratic rights although every one of them have fully embraced the militaristic policies of the Obama Administration.

What a shame. A terrible, terrible shame my country has become.

Oh, and save all of your bitching because I really don't want to hear it right now.

EMBRACE REAL WORLD SOCIALISM NOW

But you'll be pleased to know Bernie won Oklahoma. How would that work - the same state voted for Bernie and Cruz?

Even if it's only the Minnesota caucus, it's not good to let him win anything. They'll never shut him up now.

Oh, poor you.

You just don't get it.

By the way, Sanders is an asshole, okay? Dude was one of of these corporate talking heads shows the other night once again giving his full support to continue blowing and hand-jobbing Obama's policy of militarizing Eastern Europe and its "threats" against Russia. Yeah, you just sit back, all you suburban Aussies and watch that faux "socialist" escalate America into another proxy war.

Hope those Millennials toolsacks are ready for it.
