You would rather burn the house down

Talk to the Chamber of Commerce republicans that said they would support Hillary if a conservative got the nomination.

That's burning down the house by spoiled children.

Johnny,

I agree with you, you make some good points and are not as stubborn as I perceived. My apologies for calling you a malcontent since I don't think that is true now. I think both of us want the same thing, but perhaps going about it in different ways. There does come a time when one needs to draw a line and say no more. It's hard to know how close we are to the cliff, but we know we are getting closer and closer. For me, that line is immigration. That would be one betrayal too much for me.

I would hope that by now, they (politicians) understand that.

As for the Chamber of Commerce, I agree with you. The CC used to promote what was best for America, but that is no longer true. They promote what is best for their businesses/shareholders since companies are no longer part of their nation's culture - they all seem to be global citizens now, so businesses don't really care what happens in the US as much as they used to since they just move things around.

The republicans need to divorce themselves from the CC, but I don't see that happening. Your thoughts on the CC are completely correct.
