Tuesday  21 July 2015  / Hour 1, Block A:   Bill Whalen, Hoover Institution, in re:   Sixteen GOP candidates in the race;  Trump attacked Perry, who responded well.  Iowa, New Hampshire and SC: you get to pick flavor.  Donald Trump played squash when was  a younger man, at least before he got his war deferment.  His attacks on John McCain were unspeakably over the edge. He hurts Ben Cason Carly Fiorina, Ted Cruz by holding on to at least 5%.  He's very good at celebrity; not clear her really wants to be president.  Trump is the ready-made candidate for the Getting revenge, lost The Apprentice, is controlling this [play]. Sinister satisfaction out of it – turning it in to a very bad reality TV.   "Eight years of Donald Trump in the White House would exhaust me as a political commentator."  Neither anger nor bad temper wins the presidency in this country.  Today Trump gave out Lindsay Graham's cell phone number.  Let him collapse under his own weight.
