The GOP is has already committed suicide.
The war on Trump has cost them everything. Never again can they claim to be different from leftists, that they are driven by principles over self, that the pick yourself up by the bootstraps world of politics exists, or that they are for personal freedom and choice.
What's more, is the real tell is in the way they did these things, not how or why. Everyone knows that they did this to prevent an outsider, but the way they did this, the pull out all stops, jump in bed with the opposition, mindless panic, frenzy demonstrates that, in their minds, the public must never be given control. Ever. At all costs.
Ladies and gentlemen they have dropped all pretense that you are a slave. Next will be the rapid removal of what little rights you think remain. Mark my words, if Trump somehow did manage to make it through the primary congress will appoint Obama's choice of lunatic statists to the court so that Trump will be powerless.
There is only one party, that of the state.
