Republican officials are exploring how to handle a scenario that would be unthinkable in a normal election year: What would happen if the party's presidential nominee dropped out?

ABC News has learned that senior party officials are so frustrated — and confused — by Donald Trump's erratic behavior that they are exploring how to replace him on the ballot if he drops out.

So how would it work?

**************

‘Erratic behavior’ to them means anyone who doesn’t go along with weakness, failure and endemic corruption. The GOPe is not a party; its a self-serving club of political elites who are only interested in protecting the status quo.

For the media, disagreeing with a Muslim Jihadist is considered “Erratic” meanwhile, Hillary Clinton gave weapons to ISIS and Al Qaeda and that is not considered erratic..Hillary Clinton arrives 2 hours late to events and that is not considered erratic..WOW the left must be terrified that Trump might win..otherwise they would be rooting for him if he will lose in such a massive landslide

Probably Newt Gingrich trying to stay relevant.

Trump should not announce his cabinet for some time. It will give him a chance to see who is loyal.

Gingrich OUT

There’s 97 days between now and the election. Are you all saying that if Trump is down 10-15 points in the polls that he would not step down? To me that would be the most Trump thing imaginable. Make a big production of naming all the people who stabbed you in the back, blame the RNC, the weak RINO voters and elected officials who are in the pocket of big business, blah blah blah America, blah blah etc etc. I can totally see that.

Well when your brand is being erratic, it doesn’t really stand out, you have a point there. I think what they mean is erratic compared to a mentally stable person.

He is erratic in the sense that he doesn’t kow tow and act like a normal politician.

No one knows how to handle him so they just attack attack attack.

Khan was gaining traction but then Freepers and Breitbart started digging.
His website says “parked” at GoDaddy. Don’t know if someone else bought it or if it still belongs to Khan

Agreed. This is the MSM ONLY option now. This is exactly the type of crap they pulled with Romney - implosion of his campaign with a milk toast candidate. Ignore and move on.

My god, everyone in power is against him.

************

Speaks volumes, doesn’t it? If the elites who have destroyed this once great country don’t like him then I’m all for him.

The truth is, Trump is threatening to them and their cushy life stealing from the people. They are afraid he’s going to remove the trough they’ve been feeding from. I hope he does.
