Donald Trump will host a group of nearly two dozen influential Republicans on Monday afternoon for an off-the-record gathering that his allies hope will improve his relationship with the congressional GOP and the party's Washington establishment, according to two people who were invited.

If Trump does get the nomination I wonder how much of a lost cause or stabbed in the back myth is going to develop around his inevitable defeat, especially if the GOPe run their own candidate. I could picture Trump and most of his supporters believing they would have beat Clinton if only the Republican Party supported his campaign.

The only two options for the GOPe are to support Trump which likely causes some serious downticket issues for them and permanently alienates an entire generation of hispanics. Or run third party and permanently lose the support of Trump voters. It's great how there is no good option for the Republicans in this.

BTW very clever way to work a nice WW1 phrase in here for the subtle Trump as Hitler comparison. God bless.

Like idiot liberal protesters, the Mexicans seem hell bent on helping Trump win:

"" posted:

Mexico is mounting an unprecedented effort to turn its permanent residents in the U.S. into citizens, a status that would enable them to vote -- presumably against Donald Trump.

Officially, Mexico says it respects U.S. sovereignty and has no strategy to influence the result of the presidential race. Yet Mexican diplomats are mobilizing for the first time to assist immigrants in gaining U.S. citizenship, hosting free workshops on naturalization.

"This is a historic moment where the Mexican consulate will open its doors to carry out these types of events in favor of the Mexican community," Adrian Sosa, a spokesman for the consulate in Chicago, said before an event on March 19. In Dallas, about 250 permanent residents attended the consulate’s first "citizenship clinic" in February and another 150 in its second in March. In Las Vegas, the turnout topped 500 . . . .

I wouldn't go that far. 90% of Republicans were going to rally around him eventually. He already fills in the blanks in his political thought with bog standard Paul Ryan speak. The only defections will be from the foreign policy hawks, the business wing, and strategists looking at the big picture of 2018 and beyond.

The geniuses at FiveThirtyEight posted:

All of the respondents agree that Trump is not likely to get close to 1,237 delegates before June 7, when California and four other states vote. The closest Trump came was 1,088 delegates. And even the most optimistic Trump projection has him hitting 1,244 after all the states have voted. That leaves Trump with very little room for error to reach a majority of delegates without at least some of the currently unpledged or uncommitted delegates coming to his aid.

Right, I'm about 1,500 posts behind in the thread, so I'm like talking to you from the past. Anyway, I made this which was probably relevant at some point but I already can't remember why and...you know, Mitt Romney's probably dead by now or something. Or Ben Carson's been arrested for a neurosurgery-related ponzi scheme. Chris Christie's exploded. Could be anything. I don't know. Nothing makes sense.

If anyone needs a good nap, Hillary is speaking at AIPAC right now.

On a positive note for her, she's not yelling!!! The shrillness factor goes away when she DOESN'T YELL. Why haven't her idiot advisers fixed this issue? They had a segment on MTP yesterday crying about SEXISM over the criticisms. Not smart, making excuses and blaming others means you won't fix the problem.

Anyone know what time Trump speaks to AIPAC today? This poo poo is a snooze-fest, needs to be Trumpened up a bit.
