7. An embarrassment of riches

Where would one start with the damning footage of Republicans lambasting Trump? Rubio is now labeling him as a con artist, correctly by the way. Cruz cites long-standing mob connections. The Republican establishment would just as soon have Trump go down in flames in the general election, just to have a fighting chance of regaining control of the party. I see the GOP as a political Humpty-Dumpty these days, with divisions too great to unite the brand as a functional entity. It should be interesting.
