First of all, Trump cannot win a general election when over a third of Republicans actively despise him. I’m not talking dislike a little, but really despise.

I would submit that this is true of every pubbie candidate.

Our candidate will need full blown conservative and Republican support. Trump won’t have it.

Again, I could say that of every candidate, whether active fin the race or retired from the field. The problem that exists on our side of the fence is that far too many of us demand more of our champions that any of them can deliver and then turn our backs when we need to close ranks.

In a small way, you could say that.

But we’ve never had a candidate like Trump.

For all his magnetism in attracting a certain group of supporters, his negatives drive a larger group of voters away.

I have promised to vote Trump if it comes to that but a lot of people won’t.

Too many people won’t.
