sorry bro FReeper. but, i categorically reject every single point underpinning your argument.
for example, your assertion that there are gop rebels. there is no evidence whatsoever that there are any gop rebels. michele bachmann was the closest thing we had to a gop rebel in congress in the last 8 years and she was hamstrung and ultimately shutdown by the uniparty.
if Trump is elected as basically an independent, and i think he will be, he’ll have to deal from strength with a hostile uniparty congress. anything that weakens the uniparty, strengthens Trump. let’s hope he’s up to it.
If Trump actually pulls off a win, there will be plenty of “rebels” ready to take out Ryan. Victory has many fathers, defeat is an orphan. Many Republicans will side with the Democrats to “Jesse Ventura” him, but there will be enough that will look at the vote-getting power of a winning president and decisde that’s where they should place their chips. Ryan won’t survive that.
