I'm for that. But, if Trump were to win the presidency, without both Houses of Congress in Republican hands, the - democrat machine will ceaselessly attempt to roll him. And if Trump winning the nomination causes a third party candidate to emerge, that could throw things for a loop. Depending on whom that candidate would be, they might actually win. But, if Trump were to strongly support one of the current Republican candidates, cannot see how Republicans could lose, eccept through shenanigans.

As much as the party clearly wants someone other than Trump, I just can’t feel it happening. His base now sees that the party is just as complicit in the problems we are encountering from running up the national debt to not addressing cultural issues for the better part of 50 years. I just think we’re in a very different place, Peaceful Dad. Immediate case of GOO weakness is McCarthy hemming and hawing over opening an impeachment inquiry. And McConnell trying to dismiss it outright. I mean bank records, SARs, email pseudonyms? What more does the GOP leadership need? If it were the Dems with this type of information, they’d be well beyond an inquiry. We’re in very different times.

Totally agree with the evidence piling up. McConnell and McCarthy may dither as much as they like, but the house Republicans are not going to back down. Think they are doing this carefully and slowly, brick by brick, because for a case to be made against a democrat, it must be completely iron-clad. So much so that even the MSM can't brush it away. I think they are carefully working on that.

They better or the GOP will cease to exist in 5 years.
