What if one-third of the right's seething, trust-only-their-gut gang cram Trump, already a General Election underdog, down their party throat? Fire-breathing Trumpery has not just dismantled the rightwing propaganda machine. He's discredited all lead "conservative" ideologues and their tiresome, failed ideology. Daily, Trump decimates the broken Bush coalition of billionaires, evangelicals and angry, dispossessed white workers. Bravo, I say! Trump is a win-win for the left, whether a primary winner or not.

GOP candidates that have previously said a Trump presidency would be devastating are admitting that they would support him if he won the nomination. At least, they're showing solidarity, sort of?

It's now quite conceivable that come January 2017, we will see Donald Trump inaugurated as president.

"Anyone who lived through the Bush years can only fall down laughing at the hypocrisy and impudence of this kind of talk coming from that man."
