Spreadsheet by @taniel. The preponderance of red state/safe seat flight is *because* Trump still has solid GOP base.https://twitter.com/Taniel/status/784812429792403457 …

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 …

This is amazing. Timeline of which Republicans balked and walked (or did not) when Trumped said what.http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2016/08/29/us/politics/at-least-110-republican-leaders-wont-vote-for-donald-trump-heres-when-they-reached-their-breaking-point.html …

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 …

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.
