She's baaaaaack! That's right, crazy Nevadan Sharron Angle who ran ads like the one above in 2010 when she ran against Harry Reid is back, and running for his Senate seat.

Jon Ralston tweeted this:

According to the AP, Angle heard "the clamor of the people."

Hmmmmmm. I'm sure she did.

Ralston also pointed out that there's a Trump/Angle connection.

But many tea party activists remain undecided at this stage in the cycle as they consider a number of GOP candidates who fit the "outsider" mold. And some have the same question about Trump as establishment Republicans and members of the media: What are his policy proposals?

"He seems to fire everyone up," NFRA President Sharron Angle said of Trump. With the tea party's backing, Angle attempted to dethrone the Senate's top Democrat, Harry Reid, in one of the most high-profile races in 2010.

I wonder how Trump will react to Angle's call to privatize Social Security, though, since he's been running on a platform of not changing anything about it.

On the other hand, her thoughts on "Second Amendment remedies" would be right in line with Trump's fascism.

Welcome to 2016, where the crazy is out and roaming the streets.
