Best to avoid the horrible choice entirely by nominating a conservative.
I agree.
I have one more perspective you may also agree with:
Trump will be a loose cannon on deck. But the “deck” is Washington D.C.
Exactly what in Washington D.C. is so near and dear to our hearts that we are unwilling to allow it to be crushed?
:-)
Trump / populists are destroyers. But he’ll be in D.C. I can live with that.
Here’s a second perspective:
Trump is a manifestation of the revolt that will always arise when leaders disserve the people. If the Republican Party had been identifiably conservative at any time in the last 20 years, Trump could not exist. The RINOs chickens have come home to roost. Trump is THEIR FAULT.
