knowing how the republicans have done other viable candidates dirty in the past, i dont know how Trump could get the nomination.
but if he does...and i really REALLY hope he does...it would be catastrophic for the GOP. their money machine WILL NOT support him, you would see amazing backlash down the party line and a fragmented national election effort. he is a buffoon in politics, and it would eventually if not automatically discover itself as his election staff melts down under scrutiny. this kind of shit storm would destroy any hope of a republican president for another 20 years.
