"Grow up!"

Thomas Sowell takes on Donald Trump in The American Spectator:
Of all the many things said about Donald Trump, what was said by Roger Ailes, head of the Fox News Channel, said it all in just two words: “Grow up!”

It is amazing how many people have been oblivious to this middle-aged man’s spoiled brat behavior, his childish boastfulness about things he says he is going to do, and his petulant response to every criticism with ad hominem replies.

He has boasted that his followers would stick by him even if he committed murder. But is that something to boast about? Is it not an insult to his followers, if it is true? Moreover, his cockiness is misplaced, because he still does not have a majority among Republican voters, while you need a majority of all the voters to win any state in the general election.

Too funny that you're so opposed to Trump.

Here's what you don't get: unless we stop this immigration madness, all the stuff you care about (Conservatism, Inc.) is going to be merely academic in a few years, since white conservatives will be completely outnumbered.

That's a demographic reality that you have to accept. And Cruz isn't going to get it done. He only started talking tough on immigration when Trump went there. Cruz isn't a true believer, and deep down you know it.

It's Trump or oblivion, Bob. It's really not that complicated.
