      1. I actually think people are under-estimating what a disaster Trump is going to be for the GOP.

      2. People think worst case scenario: Trump embarrasses party till Nov, loses, helps lose Senate & House. But That's not worst case scenario

      3. Here's the thing you have to realize in gauging a worst case scenario: Trump is not going to disappear even if he loses in November.

      4. Trump is going to be around after he loses, will be face of party till new nominee in 2020 & everything he says will be news.

      5. There have been only 28 men ever to be GOP presidential nominees. Only six will be alive. Trump will be one of those six.

      6. Trump's not going to disappear & will be irrepressible & publicity hungry voice of the openly racist wing of the GOP for next 10-20 years

      7. And if GOP suffers devastating losses, that will in some ways strengthen Trumpism in party because it will mean non-Trumpians have left.

      8. Post-2016, GOP is likely to smaller, but those who stay with party will be more inclined to Trumpism & blame loss on back-stabbing RINOs

      9. Outside the GOP, Trump will have poisoned Republican brand with non-whites far worse than Goldwater in 1964, with impact lasting decades

          Endorsing Trump is going to be for the GOP what voting for the Iraq war became for the Dems.

          why isn't 1964 a model for this year? Two years after Goldwater GOP was triumphant.
