How long will it take the Trumpites to realize they have been duped?

They're like Trump. They will never admit anything.....which makes them exactly like Obama supporters.

exactly. If Trump is a Republican then I am not.
It looks like I will be changing my party affiliation to Conservative or independent. There is no way in hell I can be a Republican if that liberal is our standard bearer.

I imagine a few of them already know it deep inside but would never admit it............ at least not yet.

Yep!  It's totally inexplicable.

On other sites I detected an undercurrent of religious bigotry. People had to tie themselves in knots to discredit his voting record and Heidi's job associations, but the real reason for their hate was his charismatic/evangelical leanings.

I am embarrassed over this and sick for this country.

Being both Hillary and Trump stand a good chance of not finishing out their term in office, with one breaking the law, and the other ignoring it, lets hope both have good judgement in VP picks.

You have no sense of irony, Frank.

Mindless idiots are mindless idiots no matter what person they support.

Considering Trump got 5 million less votes than his competitors, your burn the GOP down strategy has a glaring miscalculation. 5 million base voters are going to sit home, vote third party or actively see that Trump looses his ass in the most embarrassing rout imaginable. I am choosing the third with my money and vote.

No, Reince. You could have stopped this orangutanged sonofabitch last August when he trashed McCain.  But you stood by and let him run roughshod over 16 other much-more-deserving candidates than he in a scorched-earth effort to claw his wrinkled butt to the top.

Well, he's there, Reince.  But don't be surprised if all you've got is the short-bus crowd that got Trump the nomination.  We have no need to unite and will not unite except to defeat Donald Trump.

Holy cow - look at the length of that video. Who knew that absolutely nothing of substance could be spoken for so long? Oh, wait... we live in Kardashian Kountry now...
How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

Now that you have identified the problem, what are you going to do about it???

The olive branch has been offered. Politics isn't for the thin skinned.  I've been an anybody but a demonrat.  My preferred candidates didn't get the nomination for over two decades. Finally we get an energetic, enthusiastic candidate that actually appears to really want to win and the GOP does everything possible to destroy him.  Is Trump imperfect, yes. Can he be an effective leader? I believe he will. I'm anxious to see who he selects for his VP because I believe he will only want to serve one term. Then I want to see who the cabinet appointees are.

Well, you just go right ahead and do that. Meanwhile, a majority of this forum will be #NeverTrump.  There's nothing he nor you can do to change that.

Not for the thin skinned? Apparently it is because the presumptive nominee cannot handle being challenged in public and has the thinnest skin of any politician I know.

Who is left standing? Trump didn't quit and go home when the GOP financed the campaign against him. He actually fought back and won a resounding victory.
