Republicans are a lot closer to 'maybe Trump' than 'never Trump'
The Washington Post ^ | April 14, 2016 | Philip Bump

The goal of the nebulous, sort-of-a-thing "never Trump" campaign is to do whatever is possible to stand between Donald Trump and the 1,237 delegates he needs in order to claim the Republican party's nomination on the first ballot at the convention. The informal effort has resulted in a lot more anti-Trump ads, and has benefited from the businessman's own natural inability to organize on-the-ground efforts in critical states.

I like your thinking. I’m sensing a momentum shift too. Cracks are starting to show in the opposition. Should be an enjoyable couple of weeks :).

Yeow. I see it coming it too.

The leaks and turning the corner for TRUMP is starting to come.

Warming up Rove, and now this, and TRUMP said last night on Hannity, that more endorsements of surprise are to come
fairly “soon”.

First the trickle, then the CASCADE to end this crap and get on the TRUMP TRAIN and RIDE to the White House first class!


I second this emotion :)
