Indeed. I’m ashamed that I supported him. I felt desperate....too much so, as I look back. :(
That's how the Republican party's been doing things of late, just consider the past few presidential elections: 2000: OMG, we can't let Gore get elected! Vote Bush!
2004: OMG, we can't let Kerry get elected! Vote Bush!
2008: OMG, we can't let Obama get elected! Vote McCain! (Really!? John McCain, trampler of the constitution McCain?)
2012: OMG, we can't let Obama get reelected! Vote Romney! (Really!? Obama's white-clone Romney!?)
Thankfully in 2016 Trump shook things up, preventing ¡OMG, we can't let Hillary get elected! ¡Vote JEB!
although you could see them trying to angle Cruz in after Jeb's defeat.
(He's the only one who can beat Hillary!
)
