Well, there are more of us than there are of them, so let them vote for whomever they want.

The GOPe peaked. No bench. No platform. No agenda.
The best years are behind them.

The 1924 Republican platform was darn good. Google it sometime.

Trump will never be elected if he can't unify the Republican Party.

In 1988, HW Bush was elected in a landslide. He won 59% of the white vote and won 40 states. In 2012, Romney won 59% of the white vote and lost. That shows how the demographics have changed in just one generation.

So, you can be flippant all you want, but Trump will need a lot more than 59% of the white vote to win in 2016 and that will be very tough to do, no matter who is the nominee. Trump will lose 95% of the black vote as usual and 60% of the Hispanic vote, at a minimum. The black and Hispanic vote are estimated to make up 28% of the vote in 2016.

So again, say the, "there is more of us than there is them" (kind of bold, considering Trump can't even get 50% of the vote anywhere in a republican primary, particularly in a state like Arizona that is handmade for him). Good luck, because I already know some people who declare they will not vote for Trump under any circumstances. I don't think that is necessarily true, but for them to change their minds and vote for Trump in November, Trump is going to have to play nice, be nice and stop tweeting.

If you believe that Trump can't do that because that is who he is, then, he will lose in November. People don't vote for someone they don't like - it really is that simple.
