"My God," Matt Borges, the Republican Party chairman in Ohio, a must-win state, told The Post. "[W]hat a nightmare."

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, speaking at a fundraiser for Rep. Joseph Heck, who is running for a Senate seat in Nevada, reportedly asked the room how many thought that Trump could win the election.


Out of a dozen supporters, none raised their hand and the room fell silent, a source familiar with the scene told The Post under a condition of anonymity.

And rightly so.

I'm embarrassed that other countries think that Donald Trump is exhibiting acceptable adult behavior in our country. Most of us aren't like that at all.

Of course, then there's Rudy Giuliani...
