So what's going on in the land of Trump? Well quite a lot actually.

Got your popcorn ready?

Okay then let's start.

First there is this courtesy of Real Clear Politics:

Ouch! That's gonna leave a mark!

And then there is this from New York magazine: 

The latest Washington Post–ABC News poll finds Trump’s favorability falling 8 points to a piddling 29 percent, while the percentage of Americans holding an unfavorable view of him has increased by 10 to 70 percent.

Gee, I'm just surprised that there are still three out of every ten people in this country who DON'T dislike Donald Trump.

As it turns out a number of the people who don't like him are in his own party.

Courtesy of CNN: 

A coalition of Republican delegates is mounting a last-ditch effort to block Donald Trump from obtaining the GOP nomination by pushing for a "conscience clause" that would allow delegates to vote against the presumptive nominee. 

Kendal Unruh, a Colorado delegate, organized a call with dozens of other delegates Thursday night to discuss ways to block Trump at the convention. The group, Unruh says, marks the coalescing of disparate "pockets of resistance" -- including backers of Sen. Ted Cruz, Sen. Marco Rubio and Ohio Gov. John Kasich -- which had been opposing Trump with little success.

"This is a coalition of Kasich, Cruz and Rubio (supporters) and we are all agreeing on one goal, which is: Anybody but Trump," Unruh said Friday.

This will probably fail, but the mere fact that there are so many within the party that really despise the Donald is certainly a sign that this convention might be a whole lot more entertaining than we have been led to believe.

But wait, there's more:

-- The chairman of the House Energy and Commerce committee, Fred Upton, said that Trump has “gone off the track.” The Michigan congressman said he has no plans to endorse Trump “or anyone in this race.” “I’m going to stay in my lane,” he said during a radio interview, according to The Detroit News. 

-- Richard Armitage, who served as George W. Bush's Deputy Secretary of State, announced he will vote for Clinton. “[Trump] does not appear to be a Republican, he doesn’t appear to want to learn about issues,” he told Politico. “So, I’m going to vote for Mrs. Clinton.”

 -- Charles Krauthammer says Trump how shown over the past month that he cannot and will not change. “It’s no accident that Trump’s poll numbers are sliding,” he writes in his column today. Michael Gerson, meanwhile, decries Trump’s flawed character in his column and argues that it is a far worse problem than the first-time candidate's lack of self-discipline. 

-- “At this point, I just can’t do it,” John Kasich said on “Morning Joe.” “But we’ll see where it ends up … I’m not making any final decisions yet.” 

-- Several more companies have announced this week that they are steering clear of the Republican convention in Cleveland: Wells Fargo, UPS, Motorola, JPMorgan Chase, Ford, and Walgreens Boots Alliance all said they will not be participating despite years of previous support 

-- joining Coca-Cola, Microsoft and a host of others refusing to join in Trump’s coronation. (Bloomberg) -- Even Trump’s core supporters are angry with him. Several allies publicly rebuked him yesterday for trying to prevent suspected terrorists from being able to buy guns. Jeff Sessions, Trump's point man on the Hill, declared that congressional Republicans should not take cues from The Donald on the subject. “We’re a co-equal branch of government,” the Alabama senator said.

It's wrong for me to take such pleasure from another person's problems, right?

Well too late.

Now all of that is bad. Really, really bad.

But for my money perhaps the most devastating story concerning Donald Trump that came out this week was not about his political campaign, but rather about his wealth.

And it came from the unlikeliest of sources. Charlie Sheen.

So not only is Donald Trump a TERRIBLE presidential candidate, but he is also a complete fraud. And essentially, according to Charlie Sheen, "Just a bag of dogshit."

Man this popcorn is delicious.

Man you know you have royally screwed up when even Charlie Sheen takes a dump on you.

hey Mallard brained Phil Robertso! you have offended and hurt so many dear friends of mine, who DO NOT have … http://t.co/Pa6ekndXdi

Please do yourself a favor and click the link embedded in the tweet for the most epic take down ever, by a man who has certainly had more than his fair share of screw ups.

There are few men on the planet who have suffered more self destructive choices in his life than Charlie Sheen, but you cannot fault his ability to lay the smack down. 

Rand Paul compares the GOP to Charlie Sheen. "Winning!"

Courtesy of Mediaite:

“Does anybody remember Charlie Sheen, when he was kind of going crazy last year. And he was going around, jumping around saying ‘Winning, winning, we’re winning,’” Paul told the crowd, referring to Sheen’s very public breakdown back in early 2011. “Well I kind of feel like that, I think we are winning.” Just in case any was getting the wrong idea, he added, “And I’m not on any drugs.”

Seriously?

Okay let's all remember back to when Sheen was fired from the highest rated sitcom on network television after appearing on the Alex Jones show and raged incoherently about the producers, culminating with this line about show creator Chuck Lorre:

“Clearly, I have defeated earthworm [show creator Chuck Lorre] with my words – imagine what I would have done with my fire breathing fists.”

Sheen then went on a very public binge of self destruction, which included surrounding himself with a bevy of porn stars (Who he called "Goddesses."), calling himself a "Warlock," and claiming that "Tiger Blood" ran through his veins.

After that he made a truly horrendous, self indulgent movie that nobody bothered to see, before returning to television to make a craptastic sitcom now showing on the FX channel, that recently lost one of its only well known co-stars, Selma Blair, after she was fired for complaining that Sheen has a terrible work ethic.

So is the comparison of the current Republican party to Charlie Sheen fair?

No. At least not to Charlie Sheen it isn't.

After all he is just a somewhat talented runaway train of self destruction. On the other hand the Republican party is....well they're the Republican party, and NOTHING is as bad as they are these days!

Poll saying that Independents would favor disgraced actor Charlie Sheen over disgraced half-term Governor Sarah Palin has caused the flying monkeys to take flight.

You know there are literally so many negative stories coming out about Palin that I have to pick and choose which ones to post or else I would probably not even have time to eat or sleep. 

So I passed on the Public Policy Polling survey that showed bat shit crazy Charlie Sheen polling higher among Independents than bat shit crazier Sarah Palin did.  Funny, but others had covered it so I left it alone.

But that was before I read this e-mail from a Palin-bot to PPP that I felt perfectly illustrates the frustration and seething rage that seems to define those who are left among her rapidly dwindling supporters.

Dear Partisan Propoganda Polling,

PPP/Kos/SEIU you are now even more of a joke than you were before. Your polls are such lies that are growing more and more outrageous by the month. You really have been proven to be Propoganda Polling except you don't poll, you just make it up. Everything you put out on Palin is suspect. What kind of a Pollster puts out a Palin vs Charlie Sheen poll and polls the favorability of Levi Johnston and Asks Alaskan's if they Can See Russia. Are you kidding? You Pathetic Partisan Loons really hate Palin and the fact that you include such questions make you a joke. PPP is agenda driven garbage and your polls on Palin are not believed by anyone but the moronic left. Plus your latest poll on John Kasich with a 35% Approval and 54% Disapproval, How much did the Unions Pay for that Propoganda? You are making it up because Kasich is going after the People that write your Checks, the Unions. Public Propoganda Polling is now alligned with the Daily Kooks and SEIU, so we know that your polls are Left Wing Propoganda. Your Anti-Palin agenda is so obvious, you poll the favorability of Levi Johnston and her versus Charlie Sheen. Left Wing Lunatics and Derranged Palin Haters should not be in the Polling Business. Your Alaska Polls were way off in Every Race because you don't poll! Public Propoganda's South Dakota polls are Laughable, your numbers on Palin and Kristi Noem are bullcrap. Everything you put out on Palin is bullcrap and every poll that you put out is bullcrap. Partisan Democrats have no interest in Accurate Polls. You lie! Your South Dakota numbers are bogus, your Missouri Numbers are bogus, your Palin numbers are bogus, and your credibility is Non-Existent. If Palin Runs, your propoganda fails.

Oh my!  Are you all loving this as much as I'm loving this?

I especially love how the guy misspelled propaganda, over, and over, and over again. Which as you all know is the calling card of the true and faithful flying monkey. 

In fact I believe there have to be a certain number of misspellings before they are allowed to get their wings.
