That will be a hollow victory after which Trump voters sit it out.

All part of the Donald/Hillary DEAL.
We are still the stupid party.

>> That will be a hollow victory after which Trump voters sit it out <<

Some will, to be sure. But the questions is, “How many?”

The only survey on the matter I’ve seen said that about 30% of Mr. Trump’s voters would not support a GOP nominee other than their current favorite.

So if the GOP electorate is about one-third of the total national electorate, then the failure to nominate Mr. Trump could translate into a potential GOP loss of about 10% of total national vote — votes that otherwise would be in the GOP column.

Now, if that 10% of voters decided all to vote for the Dhimmis, they would seem to give Hillary or Bernie or Uncle Joe a 20% advantage over the GOP.

But if those disaffected Trumpidians decided either (a) to sit it out, or (b) vote third party, then the net advantage accruing to the Dhimmi nominee should be around 10%.

In the former case, the Dhimmis win hands down. But under the second assumption, I’d say the GOP nominee would have a fighting chance — albeit a long, hard slog.

Yep, which has been Trumps purpose this entire time. Disrupt and generate chaos.

“That will be a hollow victory after which Trump voters sit it out.”

They won’t sit out, they’ll be voting for Hillary after Trump endorses her.
