real question for 2016, is whether the R's can maintain their Congressional majority and if they do, will they look stupid in saying no to everything? Even No to the policies that HRC will present as DTs ideas and which the R's implicitly acquiescent to follow. ?

LOL

DT best thing that ever happened to the Old GOP. Hail to the New GOP and the TeaParty.

Yes, some will get what they deserve, and others, not so much. But all of us here, are just ridin' the bus. When it goes off the cliff, we'll all go together. Probably extolling the virtues of "our side" all the way down.

I rest my case.

Piece in the WashPo tonight about the mechanics of replacing a nominee. They could replace him if he steps aside, but they have to convince him to swallow his pride and do that. Also, the ballot is set in almost every state and voting is underway in many. Basically their conclusion is that it's too late.

The Republicans have to save their reputation and show they still have some leadership skills and some integrity left by dumping Trump.
Trump is going to lose anyway, so at least the R's would go out with some dignity and most people would respect them for having the courage to do the right thing.

They are going to lose anyway -- at least lose with some integrity.......

Why would anyone replace a winner? Ah, yet another one of those desperate dreams of those that follow the trail of horse poopy that Hillary leaves them.

I guess this last wikileaks has really put them on edge. Well, good! Time to get real for her supporters.

That old guard Republican party bite the dust with their last two sorry candidates. I swear they had to throw the election to Obama on purpose running such pathetic candidates. Nope, not throwing this one of Hillary, sorry folks!

He's NOT better than her.
But his policies are, and that's what's so frustrating is the R's have let us lose the Supreme Court, have open borders, increasing welfare class, racial division, and a stagnant economy.

It will take decades for the Republican Party to recover from Trump.
