      Trump was absolutely losing. GOP politicians knew this. Nobody is "stunned"—only dismayed that the tape came out now. Cascade: rats, ship.

      People missing the point. More red-state Repubs dumping Trump *because* they can afford to. Trump still has base: harder for endangered GOP.pic.twitter.com/HddCe3SFR8

      Of course, Trump support is a problem for some swing-state GOP candidates (NH). But hardest for: reddish (but not deep red) GOP. Trump base.

      Academic research on the Tea Party had long pointed this out. Beltway operative spin was wrong. (See Williamson, Skocpol, Coggins (2011)).pic.twitter.com/OA9bwz1yyB

      Yeah, Pence-on-the-ticket has nothing to do with "winning" this—or any election. Q is least damage to R Sen/House.https://twitter.com/tomscocca/status/784848315162779652 …

      When is a good time to talk about how Mike Pence was available to run for VP because he was too unpopular to stand for reelection back home?

      Although Kasich staying in the race was key (predictable) reason that Trump managed to become the Repub nominee. https://twitter.com/jbouie/status/784872308460560384 …

      From last week. After first debate, it was clear that Trump would lose. Trump's a Trump so some excuse would happen.https://twitter.com/JasonKuznicki/status/782961665541345280 …

      Predicting: There are many R's at the moment looking for a face-saving excuse to abandon Trump. Said excuse will soon materialize.

      Read comments under Condoleeza Rice's "No Trump" statement. He sizable GOP base. 11th hour avowal can't fix this. https://www.facebook.com/condoleezzarice/posts/1293199674025554 …

          Aargh, typo. ^"He [Trump] has a sizable GOP base." That, and how that came to be, and where this will go, is the enduring story.
