What the heck are you talking about? He has done nothing but win since he started. He is drawing a record high number to the polls and Hillary is drawing record lows.
What a ridiculous thread. No buyers remorse here. And it seems I'm not alone, if you look at the primary results. Predicting Trump's failure is simply wishful thinking by anti-Trumps.
(I'm willing to bet there won't be an answer to this question.)
The best option for you would be to support whoever emerges from a brokered convention, so long as this person is not Cruz. He is as un-electable as Trump. Your best option back in November was to use the Buckley rule and support the most conservative, electable candidate. At one point you had 17 to pick from.
Only because it feeds into your confirmation bias.
I'm saying this as someone who will likely sit out the election in November.
Trump has been underestimated every step of the way. The other candidates, primarily Bush, left him alone because they didn't take him seriously. Likely because they all believed, as many people did, that he was doing this just for some sort of ego gratification/publicity stunt.
By the time they realized that it wasn't, or that voters were taking him seriously, it was too late. Yes, they started to go after him but it was too little, too late.

Sure, that sounds like a recipe for success. Ignore the will of the people, disenfranchise the voters who registered Republicans specifically for this election cycle, and choose an establishment candidate handpicked by the elites.

I would love to hear someone make a case for why Trump is going to win in November. So far, the best people can say is he did far better than predicted so far. Well, yes and no. He has been leading the polls since July. Pundits were engaging in a bit of magical thinking by saying that the polls were lying and people wouldn't really vote the way they reported they would once the primaries started.
Today, it's the Trumpets who are thinking magically. Hillary CRUSHES Trump in the polls, but they think ... no no, Trump has a trick up his sleeve, polls this early out are meaningless, Hillary will get indicted, etc. I disregard all of this. I see no reason to not believe that Trump will go down in flames as the polls predict he will just as he has come close to winning the nomination of the GOP as the polls predicted he would months ago.
Those of you who support Trump already have buyer's remorse. Admit it. You thought Trump was going to be this amazing cross over candidate who somehow managed to be both xenophobic and appealing, making him the great white hope, but now you're waking up to the fact that he's not going to win .. not even close. You feel you're getting screwed by "the establishment" and are doing what you do best ... drawing lines in the sand and shouting threats if things don't go your way, but secretly you already regret enlisting in this lost cause. Hillary is going to trounce Trump. You see that now, and you wish you had the good sense to support a more electable candidate when you still had the chance.
You couldn't be more wrong.
Xenophobic? Where on earth did you get that idea and where is your supporting link?
Surely you are not using the illegal aliens, the ones that cost the American taxpayers $113 billion dollars a year while we have homeless American citizens sleeping in the streets to include families, veterans and the disabled? Not these illegal aliens: Victims of Illegal Aliens Memorial and Examples of Serious Crimes by Illegal Aliens
And, no, I don't wish that I was so ignorant, suffering from severe moral decay myself or just too lazy to seek the truth as not to be supporting the best candidate for POTUS. Trump 2016! He steams ahead and I am right there with him and proud of it.
P.S. Hillary for "block" Queen. I envision her in the orange jumpsuit swabbing the floors with one of those heavy rag mops. It makes me smile. Anyone supporting Hillary might want to consider a backup: http://observer.com/2016/03/hillary-has-an-nsa-problem/

I think Trump "may" win the Republican nomination. All of this heat is going to slow him down. He's probably too close to the finish line to stop him, but that's still in play at the moment.
If he does go on to the general, he's going to go down in so much smoke it will make your head spin. Are you not following the news at all?
The heat? You mean the Saul Alinsky tactics of name calling to bring Trump and his supporters down. It isn't working. The more this corrupt system keep hitting Trump the more supporters he gets.

First he "wasn't serious."
Then, he "wasn't going to file his financials."
Then, "he wasn't going to win even a single primary."

LOL
Dream on....
There are plenty of Americans who don't want the loony Left -- or lying, stab-Americans-in-the-back politicians like Hillary and Obama -- running this country.
In the end, those Americans are only interested in one color -- GREEN!
Kinda like someone who'd send American jobs to China so clothes carrying his name could make himmore GREEN, eh?
