“The analogy of the Electoral College would be this: if, after the vote takes place in November, in a few weeks the the Electoral College meets, and electors from various states cast their vote for the candidate who did not WIN that state. That’s the comparison, if you wish to make it.”
Indeed. It could be something such as the revelation that the candidate was actually a felon, for instance. No elector could vote for him in good conscience.
With Trump, it is the growing realization that he’s just not Presidential material. Nor is he electable, especially given many of his very recent comments. To the small minority that are his followers (about 20% of eligible voters) he’s a great man. The rest of the country is holding its nose.
I will say, it’s an absolutely insane election year. I don’t believe there’s ever been as polarizing of a candidate as Trump.
I’ll say again, if Trump is the nominee, I’ll vote for him. There’s a decent chance he’d be better than whichever Dem, although it’s impossible to say with any certainty.

you haven’t heard of the snake oil salesman named cruz....he’s from up north...canada i think?

The Democrats had a chance to put this thing away by crossing over in Wisconsin to vote for Trump, the loserboy who will implode in the general.
Instead, those Democrats crossed over to put Ted Cruz over the top, and keep him in the race.
Could it be that those Democrats have determined that Trump is the REAL threat, and they need a patsy like Cruz to play the spoiler?
So, the Uniparty chose a WI Unipatsy - Ted Cruz...
