    1. he is unanimously considered a constitutional expert, 2. he has argued before the SC many times, 3. no doubt he will be very conservative, and the #1 reason = 4. it will get him out of the Senate.

    Before that, what president would nominate him?

    Nope...that's the establishment's talking point, but it's bull scat. The democrats win EVERY YEAR with staunch social conservatives in the latino and black communities. The republicans have failed to connect the importance of social conservatism in the direction of the country. On top of that, implied xenophobia and racism, while it can stir up a portion of the base, has isolated two groups that could essentially hand the GOP any position they wanted.

    I get that the "base" of white voters (particularly blue-collar) feel like they're getting neglected. But they can't realistically get what they want. There aren't enough white blue-collar voters to win a presidential election. Reince Priebus tried to shift the party to bring in more latino voters after the 2012 loss. He crunched the numbers and knew that was the only option. Then Donald Trump announces his candidacy by calling Mexicans rapists and drug dealers, and threw the plan out the window. And now Hillary will be president. Trump is the worst thing to happen to the GOP since Nixon.

    Not following your history reference there.

    Nixon was more hated than Trump and won easily both times.

    He probably beat JFK too.

    Cruz dropped out today. There goes any hope of a decent SCOTUS pick.

    As an early Trump supporter, I am very happy tonight. Trump is going to destroy Hillary in the general. President Trump will be good for our country as the asshole politicians in DC are now on notice.

    Watching Trump fans celebrate the ascendancy of a tyrant fills me with a disgust I have rarely before felt.

    This makes me want to throw up- our country is going to pay for this insanity. I was hoping 8 years of destruction was enough, but we will have 4 more regardless of the crap that is elected. It is very difficult to say which one is worse!

    The GOP establishment is corrupt to its core. Thank goodness that enough of us see through their BS that we were able to show them what they can do with their politics as usual. The suck up GOP establishment is no longer an alternative to the Democrat Party. Their rubber stamping of Obama's agenda is what brought them down. Trump is merely the vessel that was used to kill them off. The masses are sick of the Democrat establishment too. Clinton is unelectable. Sanders supporters will vote against Hillary if they vote at all. Trump will be our next president.
