It only proved that the GOP base is scared and racist.....

The mainstream political pundit machine got it wrong because they never bargained that the GOP primary voters would be , for lack of a better term, this stupid.

I (and others) told u what would happen once we got out of the "nutty" primary. Trump's xenophobic, racist, bullying message was catnip for a Conservative base given a steady diet of "Obama is a muslim" conspiracy theories and WE WILL STOP THE DEMS FROM ENACTING OBAMACARE because its evil, etc, etc (which they didn't).

But in a general election u need waaaaaaaay more than 14 million voters....None of this is particularly shocking....Only thing that surprises me is that the GOP, for years viewed as the "adult" party has become a an unmitigated joke...
