WEEK 050 / 073 — The Number Falls
MAY 24–30, 2016. THE WEST BURNS AT HIS GATES EVEN AS THE CROWN DESCENDS.
“The protesters in New Mexico were thugs who were flying the Mexican flag. The rally inside was big and beautiful, but outside, criminals!”
(@elizabethforma Goofy Elizabeth Warren, sometimes referred to as Pocahontas because she faked the fact she is native American, is a lowlife!)
ONE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED THIRTY-SEVEN. THE NUMBER NO RIVAL COULD REACH IS HIS.
“Today we, together, won the Republican Nomination for President!”
Honor Memorial Day by thinking of and respecting all of the great men and women that gave their lives for us and our country! We love them.
“I (we) broke the all-time record for most votes gotten in a Republican Primary - by a lot - and with many states left to go! Thank you.”
Crooked Hillary Clinton just can't close the deal with Bernie. I had to knock out 16 very good and smart candidates. Hillary doesn't have it
THE PRIMARY WAR IS WON. BUT JUNE OPENS WITH MOURNING BELLS — AND IN SAN JOSE, THE STREETS ARE ALREADY BURNING.

This week in the saga
The number falls at last: 1,237, and the nomination no elder could deny him is won — sealed, he declares, with the most votes ever gathered in his party's primary history. Yet the week is ringed with fire: outside the New Mexico hall his enemies burn and wave foreign flags, while inside the hall is big and beautiful. In the small hours his phone glows to mark a new antagonist on the periphery, and on Memorial Day he bows his head among the riders before turning his gaze to the final general, who he says does not have it.
