There trouble is for every one of you there's two Lindsey Grahams or Peter Kings.

Peter King in a real republican.

I think Republicans (I'm talking about the important ones, not the membership) would rather have Trump than Hillary. It would be a lot easier to completely disregard his power and make deals with the Democrats to neuter him than it would be to last at least 4 years with Hillary.

I don't think Republican lawmakers are even remotely close to being able to accept Trump as president. I think we'll really see 3 distinct branches of government again because I think both houses would have BIG interest in letting Trump flounder for 4 years, while campaigning for 2020.

Not qualified?

The only people the elites of DC deem qualified are their own.

Eff that whole city and surrounding area. If it wasn't for the great history there it would be the shitstain of the entire universe.

Meanwhile Democrat lawmakers are more than willing to accept a woman who is responsible for deaths in Libya, flagrantly broke the law by having an unsecure private server and has lied under oath and repeatedly to Americans about her criminal destruction of evidence and other items. So yea, good to see the Democrats are so damn pure. I will take Trump any day over that evil, criminal witch. Does it bother Democrats? Hell no, they could care less.

For months, the prevailing wisdom within GOP political circles has been that Donald Trump stands little chance to win in November — and a large number of the party’s consultants, fundraisers, and operatives privately preferred it that way. Though many of them are reluctant to say so in public, they argue that a Trump presidency would fracture their party, decimate the conservative movement, and wreak havoc on the global economy (not to mention their own industry).
But now, with polls tightening and Hillary Clinton’s illness temporarily sidelining her from the campaign trail, those Republicans are expressing alarm at Trump’s sudden electoral viability.
“It’s terrifying,” said one GOP consultant, who like others spoke to BuzzFeed News on condition of anonymity. “He’s not qualified … and it’s a massive problem. I’m not a fan of Hillary Clinton, but at least I feel like some of those jobs that are required for president, she could do them.”

Yea, winning the Presidency, the House and the Senate just has Republicans in a damn panic. I mean how can all of this winning not cause a panic. It is your beloved Demoncrats that aren't panicking.....Oh wait, I do believe that they are. When will the Demoncrats panic stop??

Their panic will stop when they win County Commissioner in, what was it? Duvall County or something?

Would love to know who this "consultant" was. I guess since Trump won and is not qualified that the consultant will need therapy and counseling. Probably need to seek another line of work in order to cope.

Probably the same one who told Lindsey Graham it would be a good idea to run for President.

Those people are worse than the Democrats. Compared to them, give me the liberals/progressives every time.

Trump's challenge now is to keep those "consultants, fundraisers, and operatives" as far away from the White House as possible. Because they are political parasites, it won't be easy.

There never was one. Just fake fabricated news by a very far left website, buzzfeed.
