It's gotten beyond the election for me.
I'm now looking forward to the fireworks when Trump gets robbed of the nomination.
This election cycle has changed things for the GOP. It's not changing back.
It's pretty clear what a large number of Republicans want.
The GOPe is going to have to deal with it one way or another.

This big upswell of support for Trump's nationalist ideology isn't going un-noticed. If the GOPe screws the pooch by not taking advantage of it, I predict that there will be a well planned push to create a 3rd party in 2020 that does.
There's way too much support for America First Nationalism for it to ever go away and there's a *lot* of young people entering the voting ranks that are all for it.
If the GOP doesn't want it, another party will.

They'll be cutting their own nose off if they take it from him and the voters.
I think the GOP knows that too.
There'll be nothing left to vote for, and at best only 50% of their base to work with.
He's got 48-49% of the total delegates allocated at this point. There's not enough opposition to Trump to work with to build a viable plan going forward.
The only move the GOP has available to them is to look like snakes in the grass.

Some people.... The tale of two Russian milk farmers... One Russian milk farmer (Ivan) has green grass, healthy cows, lots of rain for his crops, cows producing milk for sale,life if good. His neighbor,(Igor) has no grass, skinny, dry cows, no rain and his crops failed. He asks god for help and god responds; "so Igor, do you want me to do, wave my hand and make your place like Ivan's? to which Igor answers, "no, I want you to SHOOT Ivan's cows." So it begs the question, Bristoe, what will you think of next when Trump gets the nomination?

"They" don't want it, and BILLIONS of "shekels" will be spent to stand in the way of it.

If the GOP doesn't want it, another party will. ...and you'll join that party and not vote. You non-voters have no room to gripe. You did nothing to change things all along.

So it begs the question, Bristoe, what will you think of next when Trump gets the nomination? Well,...every cable news network has been on a marathon of Trump hate for months and they haven't stopped yet. I just heard chitbird Ryan in there saying that if Trump gets elected it will split the house. So I know they haven't given up on throwing him aside yet. At this point, I have to believe that even if they fail in denying Trump the nomination, the GOPe will work against him in the general election. The neocons have already said that they'll vote for Hillary if Trump is the nominee. And you don't have to be a genius to figure out that they'll go far beyond voting for Hillary if Trump is the nominee. Either way,..for whatever reason, talking into account the war that the GOPe and the media has been waging against Trump since he became the frontrunner (even before, actually) the only thing that will keep the GOP barn from burning down is Trump getting elected President. You can argue about that all day long if it makes you feel better. But it's not going to change anything. The Trump people weren't too fond of the GOPe before,..and they hate its guts now.

Actually, I haven't been too fond of the Libertarian Party candidates that they've been putting up. Gary Johnson and Bob Barr didn't really inspire me, but I'll probably vote for John McAfee if Trump doesn't get the GOP nomination.

Why in the F*** has the RNC/GOPe and Trump camp NOT been getting together every couple of days and working on a 'SHTF' scenario should Trump get the requisite delegates or even near the number needed?
I use 'SHTF' as this is how I believe the RNC/GOPe feels should the above happen.
I for one don't relish the thought of the GOP becoming a shell of it's former self, although it seems that this will be the case.
It's one of those 'forest for the trees' deals IMHO

We need to produce a Necktie for Hillary video and see how long it takes the Gestapo to arrest us.

When you consider how Cruz and his bots have supported the destruction of the 1st Amendment as well as their outright hypocrisy in regards punishing those who indulge in illegal abortion, it's time to shut own their conservative stances for the BS it actually is.
If there's one thing Cruz supporters have demonstrated thus far, it's that they sure aren't conservative, by any stretch of the imagination. Ain't that the truth? agree

I was never a fan of Cruz for many reasons, but when he blamed Trump for the fact that the Communists rioted at the Trump rally in Chicago, I knew for a fact that he isn't the guy to represent Republicans in the ongoing culture war which exists in America.
One day maybe America can be one big reasonable happy family again. But right now we need leadership that will take it to those bastards.

The GOP is worse than useless.
