“Donald Trump picked up so many delegates (last night) that it’s looking more than ever that this fall the choice will be between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, the match up America did *something* to deserve. I don’t know what. (Looks heavenward) I’m so sorry!!”

Liz Levin almost gets a meeting, once again, in this episode’s cold open.

  • And Donald can say all this because he is playing something called the “Man Card.” All of the guys get one of these, ok? They’re great. It gets you paid more, allows you to explain things about women to women, and as a white man, mine’s also a “Get Out of Jail Free” card!
  • On the other hand, yesterday was tough for Ted Cruz. The only state he won was denial.

Coach Steve uses Sportball analogies to rally Ted Cruz’s flagging chances at the nomination.

Stephen and Susan talk about her lengthy career and politics, and there’s a lot of hand clutching, too.
