It looks like if someone decides to run as an independent, they just missed the deadline to get on the ballot in Texas. That probably means that an independent from the right can no longer hope to actually win.

I think an Indie from the “right” appears to have clinched the GOP nomination, albeit I note that Erick son of Erick son of Erick is now busily labeling Herr Trump a dreaded “liberal.” Yes, Herr Trump is, in fact, the “left’s” Trojan Horse candidate.
Erick son of Erick son of Erick “reports.” You decide.
You are having a lot of fun with this. You post put a smile on my face.

Mark Halperin Worried Donald Trump Is Alienating The Media
By John Amato
“But then Halperin got very serious and interjected a plea to his favorite candidate.
“I’ll tell you this. The only way a Republican can win for president – I believe, is if the press favors them in coverage. And he had a chance to have better press coverage than Hillary Clinton. He’s missing that chance. He’s alienating a lot of people.”
Wow, they don’t even bother pretending any more.
Ballot, schmallot.
The Texas Lege picks its own electors, and sends their names to the US Senate in December…
Probably true.
EVERYONE in Texas is an independent. The state motto should be “Don’t tread on me”.
With the divisions in the Republican party, Hillary’s gonna open a big ole can a whoopass on the Trumpster.

Utter nonsense, but it sounds good, right?
I heard that last night on National Propaganda Radio, which lived up to its usual propaganda ways. Really beyond annoying. Such lies. Guess the Clinton Foundation paid big bucks to have this lie spread.
