17. Well it was a 17 man field at one stage. And when it whittled down he did get above 50%.

People who are hoping the GOP are going to snap out of Trumpamania and come to their census to pick a guy like Romney are going to be massively disappointed.

GOP voters love what he said about Haiti and African countries. This is what today's Republican party is I'm afraid. Most of his base eat all his racist crap up, a polite pro diversity/immigrant candidate like Flake and Romney have no chance in that batshit crazy field that rewards filthy ugly rhetoric.
