Former Louisiana governor Edwin Edwards once said memorably, “The only way I can lose is if I’m caught in bed with either a dead girl or a live boy.”
It seems unlikely either circumstance could slow down the juggernaut that is Donald Trump, even a little bit.
Trump keeps making outrageous and offensive statements. The Conventional Wisdom keeps saying that, at last, The Donald has gone way too far and is toast. Unlike most candidates and mere mortals, Trump, rather than running away from his latest calumny, embraces it — “double down” hardly begins to describe the ferocity of his counterattacks. And he continues to dominate the polls and the conversation, much to the consternation of his legions of critics and the rest of the crowded field for the 2016 GOP presidential nomination.
