I think the Democrats are completely cool with Trump.
I think they believe it is nearly certain that the GOPe will attempt to kneecap him with dirty tricks. He’ll get angry run third-party and whomever the Dem nominee is will be a shoo-in.
Does anybody know the effect of sore loser laws on this?
Maybe.
Right now it’s best to stand back. Let trump do his thing and offer support when questioned by a pollster. We have a very long time between now and when the first primary vote is cast and well over a year before the general election.
Either Trump will prevail or fail. He is providing a valuable service bringing up subjects that need to be talked about and debated when nobody else dares to broach them. For this, he should be applauded. Voted for is another discussion more appropriate for when the election is nearer
I saw a Dem talking head saying some good thinks about Trump this AM on FOX and I thought maybe that is their new strategy; if the dems make conservatives think they like him he will lose popularity.
I am sure there is significant coordination going on as we speak.
