Trump is more than a distraction...if he does not get the nod, he will be the 3rd party candidate.....then take the election away from the republican.....

he is Ross Perot with a blond wig.

The GOP for all practical purposes will cease to exist soon. They are like the Democrats in 1860 - no center, no purpose, no ideas. On the most important question of the day they are deeply divided.

They will nominate someone whose defeat is a certainty.

There will be 3, and maybe 4, candidates. This will not guarantee Obama’s victory, rather, it will assure his defeat.

In any event, if an anti-globalist does not emerge (and the GOP is deeply globalist), the country is finished anyway.

He has said he won't do that.

I know this is falling on your deaf ears, but others may remember the lengthy interview played on Greta where he said so.
