1. No, she is just pointing out that Trump is not "establishment" -

From my perspective as a fervent supporter of the ruggedly honest and principled Bernie Sanders, Trump with his pragmatic real-life record is a far more palatable national figure than Ted Cruz, whose unctuous, vainglorious professions of Christian piety don’t pass the smell test. Trump is a blunt, no-crap mensch, while Cruz is a ham actor, doling out fake compassion like chopped liver. Cruz’s lugubrious, weirdly womanish face, with its prim, tight smile and mawkishly appealing puppy-dog eyebrows, is like a waxen mask, always on the verge of melting. This guy doesn’t know who the hell he is—and the White House is no place for him and us to find out.

It seems both parties are having problems with their "establishment" candidates.
And - yeah, if you line up the whole GOP clown show, Trump is not the scariest one. Which is scary.

2. She's right, Beniti Trumpf! Is more moderate than Cruz.

6. Ha! She Used My Go-To Adjective "Unctuous" to Describe #NobodyLikesTedCruz

I've been calling him unctuous since he began running for the Senate

3. She's simply pointing out

What first the Republicans and now the Democrats refused to see: that Trump has an anti-establishment vibe that can actually appeal no matter how despicable he is. And boy did she peg Cruz!

4. Are you implying this has something to do with Bernie?

[jonno99]

8. No, this has something to do with Paglia's article, in which she has stated that

she is a Bernie supporter.

If you're someone who looks to be offended by every perceived slight, please go bother somebody else. I don't feel like playing.


If you are otherwise just curious, well then, have a great day!

7. Camille Paglia

has been batshit crazy for 40 years. Paglia is to feminism what Schlafy was to the ERA.

9. She is utterly scattershot

And a loose cannon. With occasional flashes of insight.
