(1,443 posts)They waited too long to go after him and, by the time they did, their attacks rang as hollow and insincere. No, I think you have to begin with the central premise that this man is not fit to be president. Waiting only legitimizes him.
Now, if you begin with the premise that the Republicans are going to dump him, sure, it's a dangerous strategy. I think, though, that you're assuming the GOP leadership has suddenly developed a lot of power they didn't have before and have also suddenly grown a spine. I doubt either is the case.
Edit: Not only do you have to go after his lack of fitness to serve. You have to tie his philosophy to the party as a whole. Trump is just saying what other Republicans don't have the guts to say. They're only bothered by him because he messes up their long-term scam.
