Not when they have all left the race.

They certainly won't be voting for King Hillary.

Agree but I was referring to winning the Republican nomination. I believe some of those guys will drop out and supporters will rally behind the Rubio/Cruz survivor.

I'll watch with great interest to see what the GOP establishment will do to derail him. Because you know that behind the scenes that's exactly what they're plotting.

When they do, I hope he runs as an indy.

Oh, I don't even think it's behind the scenes anymore; they are openly trying to figure out to prevent Trump from getting the Republican nomination. I'm sure they contributed to Kasich's anti-Trump commercials which are . . pretty interesting and I'm no Kasich fan.

The GOP establishment has been busy like bees trying to figure out how they can nominate anyone other than Trump.

Go Trump the Birther, you are doing a fine job destroying the GOP from within.

Which is why I will be voting for Sanders in the primary. Hopefully he scores some good wins early on to help push his drive.

The fact that you two post constantly and consistantly in Trump topics, and never ever post anything in support for the candidate whom you think will win, speaks volumes for what you really believe.

Not really, I don't need to desperately create threads about the candidate I support daily on a forum site to make it sound like my candidate is somehow winning and the best. I do however find it fun to post on Trump the Birther threads because their is gonna be a lot of sad little Trumpets out there when their lord and savior loses.

The GOP establishment is in a real quandary here. Trump supporters are not going to be good loyal voters this time and get in line to vote for the establishment pick. Establishment voters still will get behind the parties pick.

If Trump isn't the nominee the GOP loses. It's possible the establishment would rather lose than lose control of the process but that's why so many are backing Trump right now. They are sick and tired of the establishments decisions.

On the other side, if it is Trump, many (D) voters that support Sanders are not going to get in line to vote for Hillary either.

If my options are Trump or Clinton, I am voting Clinton just to vote against Trump the Birther, and I wouldn't be the only one. Trump the Birther would learn the hard way that he has little support outside of the Birther crowd.
