But if your point is something that drives away a significant part of voters that you need to win the actual election then maybe its a dumb thing to keep hitting.

But that's something we are used to. Primary destroying any chance Republicans have at winning the actual election.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

Ted Cruz is such a D-bag. Every time he talks he comes off as a smug prick that needs to be punched.

If Trump wins the Republican Primary, Cruz will absolutely be his VP candidate. Easiest democratic victory in history if it happens.

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if Trump scooped up Cruz.

And I am not so sure about Trump being unelectable nationally. He has broad electoral appeal, in part because he is an asshole.

His favorability ratings are awful. Trying to spin it any other way to make it sound like Trump is electable is a fantasy.

what would you guys do if trump ends up winning the election


Withdraw my application to re-join the Navy and probably move to Europe.

No, I'm not kidding. There's no way in hell that I would have that man be my commander-in-chief.

She prepared for that question.
"But, as the conservative understands it, modification of the rules should always reflect, and never impose, a change in the activities and beliefs of those who are subject to them, and should never on any occasion be so great as to destroy the ensemble."

The electoral college is already not in the Republicans favor. The NUMBER ONE issue Republicans listed in their 2012 autopsy of their presidential loss was immigration. They decided they had to do better with Hispanics. Trump may have already lost the election for the Republicans for all we know. If he is the candidate, this will be the central focus of Democrats and the 2012 autopsy will prove prophetic.
