The GOP is operating under the arrogant assumption that we will line up to vote for whoever they put at the top of the ticket. Or perhaps they prefer we stay home and not vote at all, and then help them out in the midterms. After all, we’ve been doing it awhile.
This time it’s different for many of us. We’ve had 8 years of Obama. We are just not that scared of a Dem in the White House. Nor will we be helping out the GOP in the House and Senate. We’ve seen how well they work with Obama, so what difference does it make?
The Republican Party doesnt realize what is coming.
I agree with you. I think they know they would likely lose this election if they shut down Trump’s impressive win in the primaries even with all the media and party against him. That is a chance they are willing to take. From their perspective, they are better off losing and maintaining control of the party and the donor class than allowing Trump to win and remake the party.
