      4) Rather as liberals repulsed by Jimmy Carter rallied around John Anderson in 1980…

      5) Such a decision presents an agonizing balance of risks to practical Republican politicians

      6) Splitting the party can escalate what might otherwise by a 53-47 Hillary Clinton win into a 53-40-7 Hillary Clinton landslide

      8) And such a turnout collapse will doom Republican down ballot candidates across the country. Goodbye, Senator Portman.

      9) Meaning that the D turnout slide from 08 to 12 can continue into 16 - and still deliver a 1980 style sequence of wins in Senate & states

      10) So the “true conservative” independent line it is. The trouble is … that temporary party splits have a way of hardening

      11) Many of the Roosevelt Democrats of 1932- Harold Ickes eg - were people who had bolted the GOP in 1912 and never returned.

      12) Democrats for Nixon in 1972 became Democrats for Reagan in 1980 … and outright Republicans by 1984.

      @davidfrum Depending on the details, "Trumpism without Trump" might be better than anything GOP has offered since Nixon.

          1.) Right, does "Trumpism without Trump" include boorishness, sadism, contempt for other Americans, retribution, etc.? @HeerJeet @davidfrum

          2.) Or is it about protecting the welfare state, not being so easy to go to war, making jobs stay here, etc? @HeerJeet @davidfrum

          @HeerJeet @davidfrum The Republicans badmouthing government and Democrat Presidents has backfired in a major way. They fueled their demise.
