All is not lost for Arizona. I heard a very authoritative tip from a trustworthy reporter at the UK Telegraph saying he knew an operative at the highly respected research firm Fusion GPS who from an anonymous Russian prostitute that...

Senator McCain was never actually interred in a grave, and that he in now in suspended animation and could be deployed to primary President Trump.

No, the GOP needs to get behind Trump and support the team.

“1 down and 2 to go: Kasich and Willard.”

i don’t see willard doing it. he’s actually not as stupid as flake or kasich, and must know how deeply unpopular he is and that any national run against trump will totally finish his political career, rendering him a pariah in the Senate ...

kasich is another matter ... my guess is he’ll attack trump in the limelight of the lying leftist fake stream enemedia for two years and then wimp out ...

if he DOES make an attempt, he’ll probably be frozen out by the party ... plus Trump is very likely to eschew any attempted “debates” by any primary attempts ...

kasich should be embarrassed with the results of any such attempt, but he’s so oblivious he’s unembarrassable, and of course he has no political career to speak of that is destroyable ...

Kasich will run as an independent or libertarian to split the vote for republican never Trumpers.
Right now Howard Schultz has democrats in a panic but, there will be a split on the right sure as shootin’.

Such a shame that there "suspended animation fluid" just surrounds him.
This is one man who needs rejuvenation inside out.
What a waste of fluid; to use it on this blackhearted SOB.
No brain to work with? Try aiming for his heart!.
Joke's on you, he has none.

Who in their right mind would even pose the question of Flake being a pres candidate?

As long as Trump remembers that it is NOT about him that ties his supporters to him so close, but it is rather about what he REPRESENTS (starting with secure borders, and holding the line on Amnesty) - then no one will have a prayer at challenging him in a Primary.

But give in on Amnesty, all bets are off regarding a challenge from the right. Bush Sr. learned that the hard way after breaking his No New Taxes promise. He had to fend off a strong challenge from Pat Buchanan, which forced him to pivot hard-right, and made him an easy target for Clinton (and Perot) that November.

But regardless of Amnesty, as long as Trump is running, there is simply NO WAY anyone from the Left will be able to lay a finger on him - only from the right, and only if he sells us out. If people like Kasich do choose to run, they are doing it to be there, should Trump not be on the ticket in 2020 - and I’m sure they know that, or will learn it really, really, quick.

Liberals are forever saying that “somebody (but not me) ought to do ...whatever.” And this is the crowd that likes to take credit for “fighting for you.”

“You win, I support you for POTUS.
You lose, you resign your Senate seat.
Deal?”

Great idea!
