I don’t think that the GOP is quite there yet, either. Their warnings about a senate GOP bloodbath if Trump gets the nomination are the latest gambit to try and shake his support. Don’t know why they think that would work. I mean, lookat, the GOP senate has largely sat on it’s hands because the moderate leadership thinks it’s more important to demonstrate “that they can govern” by cooperating with Oma-Mao. Does anybody think that the average Trump supporter would shed a tear if, say, Susan Collins and her ilk went down to defeat?
The GOP has the House. They say “Give us the Senate”. They get the Senate, and it’s not enough. They say “give us the White House”. But apparently they only want the White House if they get “Their Handpicked Guy”. You know what? You take who the voters give you and you work with that.
And if that guy happens to win, he becomes the king of the party.
The GOP play a terrible negotiating game. Trump has them outclassed and outgunned. The GOP will fold like cheap suits and quickly learn to get on their knees and lick Trump’s boots.
