Quote of the Day

In one national poll of the GOP primary race, Donald Trump is now the front runner with 18%.   In a one to one matchup with Hillary Clinton, she beats him 51% to 34%.  Charles Pierce, political writer for Esquire, speaking on "All In With Chris Hayes," explained the Trump political phenomenon:

"In the Republican Party, there is force in not making sense.   And Donald Trump makes less sense than anybody."

Someone has put forth the theory that Donald Trump is a Democratic plant in the GOP primary race.   I don't think that's true.   He is capable of doing this all by himself.  He doesn't even need to raise money.   He filed his financial disclosure forms Tuesday, listing his net worth at "in excess of $10 billion."
