Well, you see, the whole point of this “nostalgia” for Mitt, was that Mitt was eminently beatable, and THAT is the kind of candidate the Democrats would like for the Republicans to put up.
The Donald is truly a “Trump” card ion this game, and it baffles and confuses the Democrats endlessly. They have no idea how to wage a campaign against him, as all the charges of “racism, homophobia, bigotry, sexism and just generally bad buy” all seem so - ineffective - in light of the fact that The Donald only hits back all the harder with his counterpunches. This is not the way Republican candidates are supposed to respond, they should fall back and go on full defense.
The Donald just does not play right, he sets off the land mines and turns around, making them look impotent and not especially competent.
In the debates, perhaps The Donald may bring up the fact that he once provided praise and support to the campaigns of both Slick, for President, and Herself, for New York Senator, because at one time, he thought they both showed some promise despite some negative aspects. But he has since become entirely disillusioned with the really poor record, that Herself as former Senator and as Secretary of State, has compiled. There are no ringing achievements, and Herself has sown only discord and chaos in her path since the year 2001.
Donald Trump is not for sale! That is another reason Dems and Rinos are so afraid of him.
(Yes, I know, that was a typo.)
