In reply to the discussion: I think that Trump will self-destruct before November. [View all]Johnny2X2X
(24,440 posts)49. He has seen nothing yet
His record, his history, and his comments have not even begun to be scrutinized by the media and the public. The vetting you get in the primaries is nothing compared to the enteral election. And the GOP didn't take him all that seriously so they reall didn't bother to do any digging until it we too late. All the insane things he said only appealed to a small % of the population, his supporters. Trump needs to win over tens of millions of other Americans to have a chance, that will not happen, in fact he might lose voters over the not six months. He will lose in a landslide.

I agree. Cheney, for example, will know how to manipulate him through his narcissism.

But I don't think his base is large enough for him to win. He needs at least some of those people
