++Jonathan Chait in New York magazine summarizes what we know from the New York Times and the Washington Post about Trump's campaign. By the way, it is likely that Trump will pay himself back from Superpac money for his "self-funding " campaign.
++Chait writes," By all accounts, it is the most organizationally and strategically inept campaign for a successful major-party nominee in recorded history. "
++Trump has absolutely no idea what he's doing. The staff is too small and are at war with itself. Trump has a disdain for data and works from the gut. He is fixated on competing in New York and California. He attacks fellow Republicans without reason, having already won the nomination. His Superpac donors are confused about where to make their donations.
++Chait writes that Trump "hasn't abolished the rules of politics."
++In sum,"Fortunately , many of the same qualities that would make Trump epically dangerous in the presidency--his impulsive ignorance, blustering arrogance,and contempt for data, also make him unlikely to obtain it.
++In his meetings on the Hill, Paul Manafort said that Trump would primarily depend on rallies for his general election campaign and everything he has said was open to be changed--except the Wall.
++Late this afternoon, the Mexican-American judge on the Trump University case ordered that the documents be revealed to the public.
