Donald's base is abandoning his campaign, leave nothing left but the hardcore alt-right weirdos, like Dan Johnson.

All are batshit crazy. Bevin is trying to turn the House to GOP and when he does, he will start dismantling the entire Dept. of Education, enact right to work, do away with prevailing wage, and pretty much anything a crazy power-hungry person would do. So far, the Democrat State AG has sued him for four actions, and Bevin has had rulings against him all four time. The last one earlier this week, he threatened the AG with "you'd better get your office in order". Bevin is the result of 16% of the eligible voters of the state voting for him.
