The lemmings who dominate the day at the exchanges immediately flee bad news and then, after a few days, they see the sky hasn't fallen and return.
The China panic, the Brexit panic, and there's always another panic.
Likewise . . .
Republican politicians fall back in line behind Trump after defecting
And this should give us pause.
We were reminded of both these quotes during Blake Farenthold’s appearance on MSNBC last night.
Asked by host Chris Hughes whether he would still support Trump even if the Republican nominee said on tape that he liked raping women, the congressman from Texas suggested he might — eventually adding he'd “consider it.”
“Again — it depends — you don't know the entire context of all of this,” he said.
“That would be bad, and I would have to consider — I'd consider it. But again, we're talking about what Donald Trump said 10 years ago as opposed to what Hillary Clinton has done in the past two or three years.”
So he sees Trump as, on politics, that much a lesser evil, eh?
