What Happens If Donald Trump Wins the Republican Nomination?

What happens is a small step for Trump, a giant leap for America.

[Parley Baer]

The GOPe with the likes of McQueeg and Linda are going to be pissing their pants. Trump will call them out on all the BS they have been doing. One is helping Obama to arm the rebels including ISIS. The crony capitalism is going to take a big hit for another.

[ex-snook]

If Trump wins, we go to war.

[Georgia Girl 2]

If Trump gets the nomination he will win IMO the general election in a landslide and commence to trying to clean OMuslim’s mess up. And whip the RINO Congress into passing some helpful legislation.

[nopardons]

What are these crazy people smoking, ingesting, and or shooting up?

Do none of them know any recent American political history at all...only going back as far as Reagan ?

Talk about "polarizing"...what about Hillary ?

What are they all going to do when Trump is elected president?

[ex-snook]

Yep, it will be like Bush appointing Cheney. Mount up.

[discostu]

My big question is does he change parties in the first or second term? Given his history he’s overdue. And how does that effect the mid-term pattern?

[Vendome]

Well, from what I understand, many RNC and GOPe will vote for Hillary or sit out the election...

What Happens If Donald Trump Wins the Republican Nomination?

Easy. President Trump.

[MNJohnnie]

Missing from all this “analysis” is the fact Hillary Clinton is possibly the worst Democrat Presidential candidate since McGovern.

[gov_bean_ counter]

In all seriousness, he may have some success cleaning up the Executive Branch, but the RINO Congress will tell him to stuff it. Then it will get intersting.

[SkyPilot]

I don't know what is going to happen, to be honest with everyone. All I see if global war, financial collapse, and cultural mayhem on the horizon.

Perhaps God will delay His judgment - perhaps not.

Trump has done something amazing that no one else in politics, business, entertainment, or industry has managed to accomplish in the last 30 years: tell the politically correct media and Satan controlled liars to take a long walk on a short pier.

While it encourages me, I see Trump as being 3 hours away from a media infused meltdown.

I have been burned far, far too many times to place my trust in a man.

Jesus Christ is my only hope.

I admire Trump, I will vote for him, and I wish him all my prayers. America's problems are spiritual, not political.

I just don't think that Evil will be held off or the global march towards the Antichrist system will be delayed much longer. But I hope I am wrong.

[Leaning Right]

If Trump wins, we go to war.

Hmm...with who? Putin? The GOPe? The politically correct crowd? The Grand Duchy of Grand Fenwick?

[Mr. K]

This ‘analysis’ is just as wrong as their previous predictions that he would fail.

[pgkdan]

Well, from what I understand, many RNC and GOPe will vote for Hillary or sit out the election...

Good. That will be a very useful object lesson in just how worthless and useless these people are. They think they're the heart and soul of the party. They're an anchor on the party and it's time we cut that anchor and sail.

[Tax-chick]

He’ll either be elected or be defeated in November.

What do I win for answering that incredibly difficult question?

[TruthWillWin]

Or Dukakus? You have just insulted McGovern by comparing him to Hillary.

[gov_bean_ counter]

Free tax prep from H&R Block???

[miss marmelstein]

He’s much more Truman than Reagan.
