Similar conversations with my republican family members and not one Trump supporter...most said they don't like any in the group and most said they just wouldn't vote in the end... Bush or Kasich were the only probables...

Some here are taking the bait from the MSM who are selling Trump's fear factor show and I can't imagine any GOP winning the general without Hispanic/African American/Muslim American/women support...how would that possibly happen?

I too have been having trouble visiting here with the Bernie/Hillary hateful, almost childish war going on so will frequent more when our nominee is decided and we can be one force...

I'm also not afraid of Trump and would welcome Hillary or Bernie taking him down...
