Interesting, this resulted in the birth of the Republican Party.
Especially damaging was his support for the pro-slavery Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, which backfired on him as Kansas was overrun by pro-slavery forces, mostly from the slave state of Missouri.
The events angered Northerners everywhere and helped lead to the creation of the Republican Party.
Wow, that poll makes Trump’s strongest supporters look really bad. Such a high percentage of them are uneducated, rural folks who don’t care about global warming but who badly want a wall.
I don’t think you can formulate that completely yet. I’m saying, though, that given the way things are heading … not only financially but otherwise he won’t get nominated.
He never expected to win. He wanted to use his Republican nominee brand to sell more properties. He tried changing the first few months of his presidency. Then the light bulb went off of all the things he is responsible for them he reverted back to the same egotistical asshat he always has been
Wouldn’t Trump have to have a republican challenger to not get the nomination by default? If so, is there anyone actually going to run against Trump within his own party?
From Michael Wolff’s"Fire and Fury", which you can believe or not believe, but sounds like a likely scenario.:
Shortly after eight o’clock that even when the unexpected trend – Trump might actually win – seemed confirmed, Don Jr. told a friend that his father, or DJT as he called him, looked as if he had seen a ghost. Melania, to whom Trump had made his solemn guarantee, was in tears – and not of joy.
There was, in the space of little more than an hour, in Steve Bannon’s not unamused observation, a befuddled Trump morphing into a disbelieving Trump and then into a quite horrified Trump. But still to come was the final transformation suddenly. Donald Trump became a man who believed that he deserved to be and was wholly capable of being the president of the United States.
At this point, it’s too early to say that (although I’m sure you could get a pundit or two to come up with one). But as time goes on, you’ll see they’ll make themselves known.
