Democracy can be ugly. And what Republicans like McCain and Ryan have had so much trouble accepting is that the voters in the primaries flocked to Trump. . It doesn't matter who had the best chances to win the general election.
Even if Trump is a long shot to win the election, (and he probably won't be for long; look for the polls to steady themselves in another week or so), he can now present himself as the true man of the people no Republican presidential candidate has been able to be or even look like since Ronald Reagan.
The Paul Ryans and John McCains of this world don't get it. When it comes to winning an election, the only person who needs to look self-assured and like a winner is the candidate. Trump still looks like he wants to fight and fight hard. The Republicans in Congress look like they want to run and hide. Because that's what losers do.

If she wins, 2020 won’t matter. The damage will be irreversible.

If The Beast is elected, there will no longer BE any more elections in this country. We will be Venezuela II.

Ryan needs to step down. He represents the donnar class and not the people. Yep - Ryan and company is doing to the Nation what Barbour and company did to Mississippi.
