   They're still gonna let the guy stand for election though, and he has a decent chance of winning it.

   They need to stop being so frightened of the guy.

     @mrdalesmith I have no direct experience of the US Washington "progressive" set, but I do have experience of their UK equivalents, and too many of them just think it's a bloody game.

     @goatsarah @tommyyum
     The principle motivating feeling of most American Republicans is fear. Even their greed is subordinate to & filtered through fear. (I suspect Tories are similar, AFAICS this is super common for conservatives in general.)

     So 'stop being frightened of the guy who can unlease an overwhelming swarm of low-skill ratfuckers' is a noble aspiration, but one to which the majority of Republicans cannot obtain.
