With enough

In February, Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn bluntly said that a Donald Trump nomination could be an "albatross" to his Republican Party.
Wednesday, with Trump barreling toward the GOP nomination, Cornyn was singing a different tune.
"I think he could change the electoral map in ways we haven't seen before," Cornyn said when asked if he was worried about the Trump impact down-ticket. "This disrupts the usual Republican vs. Democrat, conservative vs. liberal paradigm, and I think we don't know how this will all play out. I think it will be OK."
"You don't need to despair," the Texas Republican added with a laugh.
Cornyn isn't alone. House and Senate Republicans are reluctantly coming to terms with the reality that the real estate mogul -- a man many feared given his unpredictability, questionable policy positions and lack of discipline on the campaign trail -- will likely be their party's standard bearer. Rather than fight it, a number of Republicans say, it may be time to embrace it.
"Many of us who have expressed concerns are reconciling ourselves to the fact that in all likelihood he will be the eventual nominee," said Rep. Mark Sanford of South Carolina, who backs Sen. Ted Cruz for president.
After Trump delivered a foreign policy speech in Washington on Wednesday, some top Republicans were highly laudatory of the billionaire's positions, including Tennessee Sen. Bob Corker, who called the speech "very thoughtful."
Corker, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and a close ally of Senate Majority Mitch McConnell, said with a chuckle that the fact that Trump scares some world leaders could be a good thing for the United States.
"I did say to my staff that is somewhat of a welcome change," Corker said. "There is some good that comes with that."

John Cornyn. FUJC
He does not represent Texas...he represents himself!
Cornyn is one of those Washington insiders who talks a good game but lies about his actual votes.
Cornyn is McConnel's lapdog.
I was banned from his Facebook page.
Have you ever known a time when the GOPe DIDN’T cave when faced with anything that would damage their chances at raising money or reelection?
Did anyone else see Krauthammer’s response to Trump’s speech and say to themselves. “What a complete f-tard”? I mean, seriously! The man totally didn’t get it AT ALL. It was like he was a five year old listening to the adults speak and didn’t understand a word of it.
Dumbass.
Their choice is very simple.
1) Accept Trump
2) Hit the self-destruct button on their party.
The future begins to look a bit cloudy for them
if they choose #2.
Bon Appetite, RINOs.
I loathe politicians like Cornyn, who always have their nose in the air, sniffing for the latest scent of a trend, so as to get on board before its too late. They are born followers, without an original thought in their peabrains, unless they are coming up with convoluted schemes to enrich themselves.
Don’t forget - first and foremost, the GOP-e are spineless pu$$ies.. They always bow to the Alpha Male.
Sorry about that. Cornyn was reelected in 2014.
The GOP is mostly composed of craven Wormtongue-like sycophants who only care for their own necks. As the futility of their efforts to destroy Trump becomes glaringly clear, they'll step all over themselves wanting to be the first to kiss his ring
I remind them of that with every email they send asking for donations and the same with every mailer. I always add a note that they'll not get a dime out of me until they start acting as conservative as they talk when SHTF and berate them for allowing Obama to run roughshod over them because they have no conservative convictions - just lip service.
These days, I add a "GO Trump!" as a sign off. Maybe they are starting to hear the message.
...a man many feared given his unpredictability, questionable policy positions and lack of discipline on the campaign trail — will likely be their party’s standard bearer.

Oh please. The GOPe hates him because he’ll be the new sheriff in town who will shut down their criminal organization.
