Actually the GOPe is now locked in the Thunderdome with Trump. They’ve committed not to pull any dirty tricks on him. For example there are 15 states where the GOP chairman can remove anyone from the primary ballot with a signature. Now that’s off the table. And of course if they double cross him, Trump can always change his mind. It’s a win-win for Trump.
I remember the 2000 election very well. I do believe this election will top that for the major struggle ahead!
