America will lose.
“I don’t think that there will be any curtailing of Donald Trump as president,” he said. "He controls the media, he controls the sentiment [and] he controls everybody. He’s the one who will resort to executive orders more so than [President] Obama ever used them." - Ron Paul
Nah, not really.
The RNC (or DNC) never provide the bulk of the funding.
And, in this case, they know Trumptard is going to crash and burn.
So, it's triage now.
...support him with words to avoid the backlash, wait for the inevitable and plan for 2020.
He's not getting any real financial support.
He'll have to use some of his own money that he pretends to have.
...which is to say, he won't have any money.
It was a lie designed to make rubes believe he was independent of "the establishment."i think the 'self-funding' part was just the run-up during the debates and what not.
...with whom he is in fact good friends.
...and to whom he in fact owes several hundreds of millions of dollars for some of his less than successful real estate deals.
I can't imagine a scenario where the Clintons lose. Not that it matters either way. Both major party candidates equally suck.
I think at this point, people care less about what those stooges think and more about winning. Being against Trump, no matter what team your on, only benefits Trump. It seems the more people attack him the more popular he gets and the more he's considered an "outsider."
I can't stand Trump but I do like that the neocons who attack him end up being looked down upon by people who used to look up to them.
At the end of the day people are going to have to come to terms that you can't trash your cake and eat it too.
At the end of the GOP convention, one presumes, balloons and confetti will rain down from the rafters. Republican leaders can stand and cheer the nomination of Donald Trump -- or they can stay home and denounce it as the travesty it is. They can't do both.
Sanders is already kissing Obama's ass after just reportedly being very angry with him after their meeting last Sunday. Today's meeting had Sanders singing a different tune. Sanders has been promised (I'm guessing) major input on the platform (haha, meaningless and will be disregarded). He's asked for the firing of Wasserman-Schultz and the removal of Barnie Frank and someone else from one the convention committees. Dunno if he'll get that. Dems are looking very united in their hatred of Trump and I believe most of Bernie's free $#@! army will do as they're told and vote for old piano legs, in spite how much they hate her. They've also got Pocahontas out there railing against Trump and supporting Clinton and there isn't a Dem or socialist who doesn't worship her. Clinton would be easy to destroy but Trump can't stay on message long enough to do it. Just yelling "Crooked Hillary" isn't enough. He needs to detail the racket that is the Clinton Foundation but he rarely does. The only question is is how much the rest of the population loathes Hillary. We've had decades of the power mad psycho bitch and she is hated by millions. Whether it's enough to get them all voting for Trump I don't know.
The thought of that hag getting elected is just terrifying. Imagine what she'll appoint to the SCOTUS. Kiss what gun rights remain goodbye because she wants the 2nd gone. She won't make any appointments who could be wild cards. She'll know them inside out and they'll do as she expects.
I find it funny that everyone thinks Bernouts will vote for Hillary considering how she's treated Bernie supporters yet no one thinks idiot republicans will turn out for Trump. the only republicans that are going to vote for Hillary are hard core NeoCons who love her war tendencies. NASCAR and "mericuh", republicans are going to vote for Trump. Heavily. I can just feel it. The establishment GOP seem worried that their pets aren't necessarily going along with their bull$#@!.
Bernie has been quietly shutting down for weeks and bashing Trump instead of Hillary. I think he's been in the bag for a long time, maybe from the very beginning. I almost think his impossible run was quietly encouraged. It gave Hillary a practice target who had no chance so she could remain sharp, instead of being completely uncontested, and siphoned in lots of youth who will now be encouraged to support her and other Dem initiatives.
A lot of those kids will definitely flame out and return to apathy, or look elsewhere for political satisfaction. We've already seen it happen in this movement with Rand's diminishing returns.
Man-child is on track to win the popular vote by landslide with 73 million votes, as per the "monster wave" analysis of primary voting patterns, as conceded to be valid by the NY Times:

This estimate is even higher than my projection of Trump coming in with 3 to 7 million more votes than Hillary, but its based on similar data and premises.

Normally when someone becomes the "presumptive nominee" they get a bump in polls in h2h general election match ups. If Clinton isn't beating Trump by 5-10 points by next week I'll be surprised.
Bernie should have demanded the same exact deal Hillary got in 2008---a major cabinet post, substantial autonomy in that position, and the inside track for a clear shot at the nomination in 2020 or 24 for a real progressive of his choosing. He should also demand a change in the party rules going forward so that there are far fewer superdelegates (say 5-10% of delegates), who cannot all declare their choice at the start of the primaries, thereby skewing the media coverage and voting behavior of the rank and file.
To guarantee the leadership complies, hold out from suspending his campaign and get his name placed into nomination at the convention, thus guaranteeing him an independent nomination speech. If they welsh on his terms he can call them out on it in his primetime speech. Only by negotiating with backbone this way, will Sanders get anything meaningful out of the Hillary coronation.

Bernie's a commie and even a corporate whore, racketeering big D Democrat is better in his view than Trump or even a regular Republican. He never hit Clinton on anything other than her Goldman Sachs speech and her vote for the Iraq war. The really dirty stuff like the fake charity also know as the Clinton Foundation, he was dead silent on. He didn't run one negative ad against her. Ultimately, he wants the left side of the isle protected and he was not about to do long term harm to them. He just wants to force his side more to the left. I don't think there was any colluding between the two. I'd say Clinton saw him as a royal pain in the ass.
Trump is currently at 37% and rising with Latinos, and 26% with blacks. Republicans won the women’s vote 49%-48% in the 2010 midterms, only barely lost it (47%) in the 2014 midterms, and the GOP won the white women’s vote outright 56%-43% in 2014. And the monster vote analysis strongly suggests the white voter turnout factor has been deeply underrepresented in normal polling, but is correctly predicted by the actual primary voter data. Trump is in a far more stronger election position than is being presented by the media.
