right countries in it for terrorism

Trump: look at Ukraine we're the

only one fighting on the Ukraine

Karl: we're not fighting in Ukraine

to call you on the phone?

Trump: terrorism is out of control!

Karl: what are you talking about

Trump: I don't hear from

other countries on Ukraine

Karl: what do you want to hear

Trump: we're always telling Russia what to do

Karl: I have no idea what 

you are saying right now

everyone is agreeing with me

Trump is right about immigration

Karl: not quite

Trump: now everyone is saying

Trump is right about NATO

Karl: would you favor internment 

camps for American citizens
who happen to be muslim

be very rigid and strong

Karl: good to know

Trump: we have to be extremely strong!

Karl: right you mentioned that

Trump: muslims cover up for

other muslim terrorists!

Karl: should there be guns

at the Republican convention?

Trump: I'm gonna have to dodge the question

Karl: okay

Trump: I am very strong on guns!

Karl: well why not have guns 

at the convention?

Trump: frankly I would like

to dodge that question again

Karl: you won Louisiana but

Cruz is getting more delegates

Trump: the whole system is 

corrupt and rotten!

Karl: that's true

Trump: Ted Cruz is a liar and thief

Karl: he only lied about being a thief

Trump: millions of people love me!

Karl: how nice for you

Trump: he's stealing my delegates!

Karl: that's a tough charge

Trump: it's so unfair

Karl: do you want a binkie?

Trump: the Republican party is a total disgrace!

and religion all that stupid stuff

win which also isn't true

Karl: oh really

Kissel: there Republicans would rather

vote for Hillary Clinton than Donald Trump

Karl: mind blown

Kissel: who knows what could

happen at an open convention?

Granderson: the GOP should just

write off 2016 and focus on 2020

Karl: could Trump wreck the party!

Dyson: it sure looks that way

Dyson: but the GOP can't just 

scapegoat Trump –
they need to do some real soul-searching

Karl: that's not their strong suit

Dyson: this whole situation

is the GOP's worst nightmare

Kristol: oh god
