He had two options at this stage.
Option #1: Party “unity” with fellow Republicans, a mix of Globalists and Nationalists, Elitists and Patriots.
Option #2: Ideological “unity” with Nationalist, Patriots, Anti-Establishment.
He chose Option #1. We can only wonder why.
I suspect he sized up his chances of winning with each option, and came to the conclusion that Option #1 was the stronger option needed to WIN.
He may be right, time will tell if he chose the correct option. I don’t like it at all, but with DJT, I’ve learned to stand back and watch his strategic chess moves before passing judgement.
Well stated. I trust him.
Trump will win with independents....but he still needs the base. Unfortunately, Option 1 is the base.
