Flashback Quote of the Day

“New RNC report calls for embracing ‘comprehensive immigration reform.’ Does the RNC have a death wish?”

— Donald Trump, in a tweet criticizing the Republican party’s “autopsy” after the 2012 presidential election.

Politico: “Pundits laughed it off as the buffoonish ramble of a fringe New York billionaire on that March 2013 day, but what Trump didn’t say — and what the party establishment couldn’t have imagined — is that, three years later, he would be the one on the verge of making that death wish come true. The billionaire has not only ignored the report’s conclusions, he has run a campaign that moved the party in the exact opposite direction.”
