I'm not one to cheer when my opponent makes a wise tactical move that doesn't benefit any cause I care about.

Ie.. id much rather have had ol cawthorn squeek past his primary by .001%, and then face a tougher general.

Instead we have a "respectable" trump supporter winning a primary in what I assume will be a fairly safe red district.
