On the first day of the convention for the official nomination of the Republican candidate for the next President of the United States, Neil Carter at Godless in Dixie makes a very good case that Donald Trump is a fake. Time will tell if that is so, and personally, I sort of hope it is. At least I hope he will quit the race before he has any chance of making it to the White House. The sooner the better, for him and everyone else. After the convention is over, when he has official Republican Party endorsement, would be the perfect time to spring his "gotcha," if there is going to be one.
If it is a "sting," I will laugh so hard. Unless he is elected president and then quits, leaving us with fundamentalist Christian Mike Pence; then I will cry. But I will still say, "I told you so." If he pulls it off, he will be both famous and infamous worldwide. He will not soon be forgotten. Think of the book and movie deals. There won't be as big a payoff if he merely loses to Hillary.
A public scandal of that enormity would shake up the Republican Party, let alone the U.S. Whether or not such an event would shake some sense into either one is another thing. Since the Republican Party became the party of Christian fundamentalism, it also seems to have become the party of delusion. After all, christianity is one of the biggest cons in history.
