Bruce E. Jones: Republicans still looking for that one ‘Shining’ moment
I wasn’t paying much attention when I turned on my TV on Sunday, two days before the New York primary. I had landed in the middle of Jack Nicholson’s classic portrayal of raving madness and ax dexterity in “The Shining.” For a moment I thought it was coverage of the Republican Party primary. Of course, no candidate, to my knowledge, has yet chopped down a door and declared, “Heeeere’s Johnny!” Nevertheless, we should ensure that Donald Trump and Ted Cruz do not get their hands on any sharp instruments.
Like, for instance, the U.S. Department of Defense.
