I think Trump got Session's speech writer based on what I've read this morning.... http://www.wsj.com/articles/the-spe...umps-republican-convention-address-1469093401Does anybody except me wonder what the heck Senator Jeff Sessions (throwing in with Trump) might have been thinking? He dropped down quite a few pegs when he did that.
And Trump may have considered Sessions for VP. Link Removed
Deals. I think Trump and Sessions are making deals with each other.
I dunno about splitting the GOP. It needs a reset. It has long needed a reset. Ironically, I think this is why many people were originally attracted to Trump. The head of the Trump campaign in my state actually said to me, "we want to tell the republican establishment to go f*ck itself." (So subtle. Not.) He thought I was a naive delegate who didn't know anything, and acted like he was educating me... "Let me teach you what they have done. Stick with me, and you can learn a lot..." He knew I was against Trump, so it was interesting. After I shook off my shock over the language, I asked how they betrayed him. He explained how he felt betrayed by the republican establishment as a long time party activist. BETRAYED. He had so many stories, and he was so angry about it.... I don't believe or disbelieve his stories. We were stuck in the same room and chairs next to each other for a few hours, and he whispered many of them to me. Little weird, but enlightening about what fueled him to support Trump.
I guess what we are seeing now is the principle that "hurt people hurt people." The Trump leaders are now getting revenge against their own party members that many already feel betrayed by? They have become what they first hated.
