As insane as this sound we should be thanking trump.

Republicans have worked for decades to get to the position they are at they are not going to give it up now. They are so close to being able to dismantle all the social engineering done since the 1930's. Social Security, Medicare, Safey, Labor Enviornment. They control Senate / House. Have a majority on the SC. Hold a majority of governorships and states legislators, a few more of these and their ultimate dream of being able to ratify amendments to the constitution is easily done. Goodbye free speech, free press... see ya 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 13th, 14th, 15th, 17th, 19th...

It is only dumb luck or karma that after working this hard for this long they end up with a complete fool in the top seat. If say Rubio or Cruz or Bush had won... it really would be all over for the US as we knew it.
