I sense a 'tag team' in Donald Trump's future!

1. I think so

Although the dumpster had surfaced before as wanting to be Pres., his non-stop birther nonsense earned him this put down.

He is VERY thin-skinned and I think he decided in that moment to go all out so he could sit in the Oval and destroy any Obama accomplishments, whether he agreed with him or not.

It gets very deeply personal quickly with this bully.

2. I've wondered the same about that exact moment.

3. The GOP was too late in realizing the threat.

They should have acted last summer and fall. Instead they said things like, "any one of us on this stage would be better than Hillary", which legitimized the Donald. In other words, he was treated as a serious candidate, whatever they privately thought.

Now it is too late.
