1. Correction for Stuart Stevens--Trump brought 20 min of material to a campaign.

Marco, Ted and Jeb would not have shot themselves in the foot as often but she would have cleaned their clocks also.

Hillary is not status quo. Until now, she has always been mostly carrying water for others. She has ideas of her own and they are great.

Marco Roboto, Jebsclamationpoint, and Greeneggsand Cruz were as effective as bags of sand, rocks, and shit.

These guys built Trump's base. Just because the want to be The Disownersip Society doesn't absolve them of what they've made their real legacy.
