"SNIP............
For months, the press and the Republican establishment alike have been expecting the Trump bubble to implode. Now that it's clear Trump isn't going anywhere, we're seeing stories about a long slog of a campaign or even a brokered convention. But there's a very real possibility that, far from those kinds of days of reckoning, Donald Trump could actually "run the table." Ironically, Trump not only could win he could win more decisively than any non-incumbent Republican contestant for the nomination since the dawn of the modern primary system.

Unlike others here I don't think he's going to totally implode. Well. It'll be interesting.

There is no good choice for the sane republicans and there are a whole bunch of them. He will implode in the general.

(8,646 posts)10. I hope you are right
but I'm a pessimist about this. I was just in another thread about this and it was mentioned how Trump will have no problem pivoting and appealing to moderates. I think there will be enough bandwagon jumpers for him to pull it off. I hope I'm wrong and that I'm thoroughly ashamed of my negative attitude in 11 months.
