If you bet on Republicans folding when the heat is, you will win every time. It ever failed. Except this time. You know why? Steady, unflinching leader ship inthe person of Trump. When Republicans used to fold, Bush was wobbly too. When they saw the commander is leading the charge and is not backing fdown, they stuck together. Trump's "mocking" of Ford last night was critical in stiffening their backbone. Everybody wanted to say it. They just couldn't.

I didn't hear exactly what he said, but heard about the mocking... it's unnecessary on Trump's part.

I do think Trumps's willingness to fight back in general has helped show the GOP that they won't die if they fight back.

Giving in to liberal demands is like negotiating with a terrorist organization. Even when they get their way, they are never happy, it is never enough, they will still try to do harm to you, they will still hate you and everything you stand for, they rarely hold up their end of the bargain, and they are completely shameless about it.

The main reason the Republicans couldn’t afford to gold is how dangerous of a precedent this would set. That baseless, unprovable allegations can show up at the last minute to stop a nominee destroy a mans career

It was like Michael Jordan hitting the game-winner.

Well what do you expect? This is the same guy who says the voice on the Access Hollywood audio wasn’t his. I can’t think of a more qualified con to lead such an effort than Trump.
