They’re not just risking the White House though. They are risking many, many down ticket votes. My only reason to vote Republican this year is for President, frankly. I’m done with that party after this.

Here's the irony: when the RNC nominates one of its hack candidates (I'm betting on Jeb, Mitt, or Marco) at a brokered convention, they will try to shame and scare alienated Trump (and Cruz!) voters by saying it's our duty to stop Hillary. The hypocrites of the GOP establishment will manage to do this with a straight face, even though they themselves would overtly or covertly back Hillary if Trump makes it to the nomination. In other words, it's our duty to back their candidates, while the RNC is under no obligation to support our candidates of choice in a general election.

The GOP has absolutely no problem with second-tier power as long as the Democrats give them their vig on the $ and power.

This won't work. I will vote for Hillary in the hopes that she will precipitate the sorely needed CWII.
