I've tried to steer clear of the Trump nonsense, but ABC's George Stephanopoulos seems to have made a few dents in the armor - and not only concerning the outrageous birther business. Ask Trump about how he would handle OPEC, and his response is laughable ("Fellas, you've had your fun. The fun is over..."). Never say never in American politics, but I suspect that folks are already getting tired of the act.
