Mitt Romney posted:

I still think with the conventions a month early this year that if a brokered convention comes around and they nominate Romney or Kasich the odds for the general get closer to 50/50. July-Nov is a long time.

If they nominate anyone other than Trump at the convention, we are going to see the margins widen. The Trump voters, and those who think its wrong to screw him will be gone for the 2016 general election. That will lead to even more Republicans staying home when they know the election is lost. The most respectable showing in the general election will come from letting Trump be the nominee and stumble his way to 40-something percent of the vote.

Seriously I can't believe pro-lifers are running away from this so fast. You've been campaigning to make abortion illegal for 40 years, did you never think about what would end up happening if you won?

I have a feeling that many single issue prolife voters weren't hugely behind Trump before so I dunno if it will hurt him bad, but the GOPe prolife machine, which is quite a machine, is churning against him. Looks like the party line is "punish the abortionists, not the women"

And here's the downticket consequences.

i can sorta understand that mainstream prolife logic. its not the womans fault, she was tricked into/was promicuis/something. the evil doctor is to blame. or some stuff. idk.

I'm still concerned that the GOP will avoid somehow their deserved fate and continue to be the dominant party in American politics against all reckoning because that's what's happened every time before this

nah I think Trump calling out Dubya and utterly destroying Jeb Bush and possibly the Bush name is when the GOPe passed the point of no return.

The Reaganites are aging and dying, Bush has been humiliated, more and more people want to burn it all down and rebuild

Can I get a recap of everything last night?

Only part I dipped into was some poor dairy farmer asking Cruz what his short and long term solutions would be to legal/Illegal immigration. He stressed that the only workers who would milk his cattle were immigrants and without them, the business would fold.

Cruz took a few seconds to get spun up and then bombarded him with a bunch of bullshit about how some guy who had a pepper plantation invented a new machine in order to harvest his peppers and then something about Sonny Bono. Needless to say, he never answered the question, I felt bad for the guy who had to stand up for the response.

Then I turned off my TV and was much happier. Thanks for listening.
