Hopefully this is the final nail that kills the GOP's chances of holding the Senate.

Is he serious? He threatened to take the GOP down with him and now he wants to work with the "establishment" (Hint: Trump is part of it)? How will this party repair itself after all of this? What's going on his head?

Man I sure hope Hillary could actually pull out a double digit win to embarrass Trump and the Republicans (both House and Senate).

Much of Trump's agenda would actually be supported by a Democrat Congress.  The big exception is the wall.

I'm sorry? What on his agenda would a Democratic congress support? Certainly not his tax plan, or the Muslim ban, or deportations

Tax cuts on the rich, abolishing estate taxes, weaken 1st amendment... The list goes on

With a few exceptions, Trump is a Democrat t heart and would govern as a Democrat 80-90% of the time if he somehow won.

So what you're saying is, Trump thinks he has fewer than 4 years to live?

They'll work together to kill the TPP, but that's about it.

I've always laughed off the "Dem Plant" theories, but honestly they may be on to something.

Yeah, his opposition to Roe V. Wade or Marriage Equality. His proposal to lower taxes on the wealthy and big corporations. His proposal to ban all muslims from entering the country and deport all undocumented immigrants en masse. His proposals to gut the Department of Education and the EPA. His opposition to any sort of gun control reform.  His proposal to repeal in its entirety Obamacare. His belief that the minimum wage is TOO HIGH. His proposal to massively and indiscriminately raise our military spending while gutting out social services. His proposals to massively expand off shore drilling and eliminate any caps or environmental regulations on coal mining. His unilateral view on foreign policy without any sort of cooperation with allies.

God, Trump is such a progressive! Why didn't I realize it all this time.

The Republican Party is already dead.

He may be setting the biggest trap you guys ever got into.  When Republicans walk into the voting booth now they will realize the folly of casting an anti-Trump vote on an otherwise straight Republican ballot.  They will see they can have it all (repeal of Obamacare, lower taxes, better trade deals, the wall), and they will forget why they said they'd never vote Trump.  Because in their heart, they know he's right!
