it is going to be Trump. And then a blowout for the Democrats during the General (either Bernie or Clinton can do it).

(4,176 posts)lots of democrats not being allowed to vote, and the Rove and Co situation is going to pour money and hate into this big time.
It is all about preventing people from voting, outside of that the republican party cant ever win the WH again.

(118,696 posts)in the GE and the light bulb will go off that they have been used. And racism was used to bait them. I truly believe that. And then they'll vote Democratic. And remember those years when things were pretty good and they voted democratic.

(9,900 posts)The numbers tell them if they select another candidate via a contested convention, and Trump leads his followers into the wilderness, they will loose the Presidency, Senate, and possibily the house. The smart money running the Republican leadership knows they no longer have a Supreme Court to cover the option of election fraud for them.
They will have a better chance of retaining the house by going down with Trump at the helm, and regrouping in two years, as opposed to having reverse the changes that would occur if all three branches of government are in the hands of the Democratic Party.
We are about to witness the American political version of the "Charge of the Light Brigade", under the fabulous leadership of "The Donald", but of course, from far in the rear.
