OK folks we all knew the GOPe would do anything to preserve their place at the trough. So this is the final sound and fury and knashing of teeth. I don’t see a brokered convention on the horizon especially after Trump took 7 states last night and is on his way to taking Florida and Ohio where he has been leading.
Now that Chris Christie has joined the fray and Rudy and Newt are advising Tump from the sidelines I look for them to start talking the rest of the establishment down off the roof. Look for Trump to tone it down a notch and start talking unity like he did last night. He will pick a VP candidate (my guess Kasich) who is a good party foot soldier and things will smooth out at some point.
The problem is Hillary really IS attractive to the GOPe in Kristoland. She gives them TPP and amnesty/DACA/whatever. The GOP would be thrilled if she did the heavy lifting on SCOTUS and they didn’t have to deal with their base on that issue.
Scary times. My fear is that the GOP is going so unhinged against Trump there is no way to walk this back.
