He is going to screw up horribly, and they can hang Trump around the GOP's neck.

They will OWN him.

There is a reason why the DP is muted toward Trump. It's strategic. It's the rope-a-dope strategy.

I despise the "Hamilton Electors" because they are anti-Clinton assholes. They don't give a shit about Trump, only that a Republican gets in there.

Fuck them.
