Is This the End for Republicans? by Matt Taibbi

5. Right now it's a hell of a lot closer to an end for the Democratic Party.

Republicans are lining up behind Trump. They always line up behind the Republican nominee. Always. By September, every single major Republican/conservative figure will be supporting Trump as hard as they can. So will talk radio, and so will Fox News. There will be no Republican split. There wouldn't be for Sanders, and there won't be for Clinton.

In 2008, we absolutely mauled the Republican Party. Got the White House, had a majority in the House, had a majority in the Senate, controlled the legislatures of 27 states, and had 29 governors. Right now, Republicans completely control the U.S. legislative branch, have governors in 31 states, control the state legislatures in 31 states, and have split governance in 7 others. Meanwhile, Democrats have the White House, 18 governors, and 11 state legislatures. In other words, since then, the Democratic Party has completely shit the bed. And this fucking moron is talking about "if" it might be the end for the Republican Party. People should be asking if the Democratic Party is about to die.

If Trump gets the election and appoints 3 more Scalias (which our Tea Party Congress would gladly do), we're in for about a quarter-century of fascism. So any of you who end up unhappy with the Democratic nominee better swallow hard, get your ass to the booth, and vote Democratic.
