11. Ah - that's the rub

He's NOT one of them. He doesn't care about them, he doesn't care about the republican party. He only cares about himself and ran as a pub because that was his only option. They can't control him and that makes him dangerous to them. He's quite literally destroying the party. If you go on any right wing boards, the battles between the trump supporters and the cruz supporters is delicious. Donald's problem is that he's not thinking ahead - if he were, he wouldn't have gotten sarah palin involved. Yes, she'll likely get him the win in Iowa (which I think he would have gotten anyway, win or a close second). Because of his thinking losing any state caucus/primary was anathema to him, he ran too far to the right. Now we get to hang Sarah and her trashy family around his neck in the general. As far as the republican establishment? Watching them wring their hands makes my day.
