So you’re admitting that it is preferable to nominate Trump and then lose the general? Weird strategy.
This Trump will Lose the General mantra is tired and old.
That talking point is nothing more than nonsense.
Trump is the only sitting president since FDR who ran a 2 way races in his initial election, and gained more than 20% in his re-election bid. No other president since FDR has done that.
Not Clinton, Not Obama, Not Nixon, not even Reagan pulled that off.
This “Trump can’t win” is just BS, spread by the same group of folks who peddled it back in 16.
