    They have chosen as thier candidate the least popular president in recorded history. He had a decent shot when he was running against the second-least popular president. But now …

    They should have gone with Haley. She’d be a powerhouse at this point.

      Also they wouldn’t be worrying about losing entire states because 5% of her voters defect or stay home.

        If Trump hadn’t run and instead had endorsed Haley (or basically any other “viable” candidate) that would probably be the case.

        But if Trump lost the primary, I would be surprised if we didn’t see some of his more die hard cultists stay home or vote for some third party candidate out of spite. Especially since Trump would never take the loss gracefully and endorse the winning candidate.
