For Donald Trump, this is not going to end well. What began as a lark has turned into an albatross, and he now carries around his neck the ultimate burden of a man who has turned the world against him.
Far and Away
Somewhere in America, Trump must be weighing his options. He never expected it to go this far, but as far as he takes it, he is consistently goaded by an incredulous media into taking it farther. When his labeling of Mexican immigrants as rapists and killers sent people into a frenzy, with demands for him to take it back, he doubled down on his accusations and called for the deportation of not just Mexicans, but every one of the 11 million undocumented immigrants in the United States - husbands, wives and their children - and a massive wall to be built to keep them out.
When reporters challenged him on his assertion that he personally witness on TV "thousands and thousands" of Arabs in New Jersey, "that were cheering as the (World Trade Center towers) came down," he insisted that the celebrations were not only in New Jersey, but by Arabs all across the country and around the world.
When people were appalled over his call for mosques to be carefully monitored, he doubled down and demanded their closing. And when that didn't sit too well, he demanded the registration of all Muslims and, finally, "the total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States."

Trump has offended illegal aliens and Jihadis both.
The left wing media cannot stand it.
They try to tell people what to think like they always have, except this time, it's not working. They are pulling out all the stops. Abandoning any attempts to appear unbiased.
Trump's approval jumped 8% after he said that, the media is melting down...
Well, maybe the world you live in, Mario, but not mine.
HuffPo is proof that too much meth will mess you up. LOL!
I fear the powers that be will try and hurt or kill Trump at this point. I have a sense of dread.
Fixed it.
That could be one of the most hillarious opinion pieces I’ve read in a very, very, long time. The writer should be investigating late night comedy gigs.
Yea, me neither.
Nor mine.
the left/establishment is relentless in their propaganda by continually attempting to sway the thoughts of Americans by using lies and smears of those whom they fear. That game is old and no longer works on anyone with a functioning brain. That obviously excludes American hating liberal democrats.
You just read another one.
This guy has no idea what in Trumps mind. He is clueless. If he know what is happening he would be in Trumps shoes. On top of that he is totally misrepresenting Trump.
Only on you, Huffpo, only on you.
This ‘author’ is also a MAJOR gun-grabber. He’s CONVINCED that Congress is going to start dueling each other at dawn unless we’re all disarmed!
*SNORT*
Didn't sit too well with who?
woof, woof!

The idea that Trump is being “goaded” into anything by the media is laughable.
I would suggest the opposite is happening.
