Going with Trump would be suicide, too. REALLY sucks to be a Republican this time around. McCain and Romney are going to be seen as "the good old days".
I have seen MASS ENTHUSIASM actually. Now having a woman under criminal investigation and a communist lite candidate has got to be depressing....
If his supporters choose not to vote at all if he doesn't get the nomination, I guess so.
Which would mean that they first threw their conservative values under the bus to back him, then handed the election to Hillary after saying for eight years that the Democrats are destroying the country.
Okay, well, I'm sure all this makes sense to SOMEONE.

GOP could make deals with several campaigns....Bush is president/makes Rubio VP with cabinet positions for other candidates to back Bush etc.
So Cruz as AG, that kind of thing?
Do you think that would be enough?
.
Yep. I think it would absolutely be enough. Even a good chunk of Trump voters will vote for the eventual nominee and if the whole thing is hush hush they will never know and would support nominee. I won't. I support Trump only. We managed to stop it in 2012 and I think this would be worse. For the GOP anyways.
Always keep in mind that in the end the winner of this Presidential election will be in charge of appointing at least one Supreme.
Think of the EO's Hillary could sign into law. Then make your decision. At least get out and campaign your face off to make certain you retain the House and the Senate.
ETA: I really feel badly for you btw. Too many people up here decided they just couldn't back the Conservative government any more and stayed home. Now my government is farther left than Stalin.
Same thing in Alberta. Tired of the conservatives, stayed home now they have a female version of Mao running the province and she is poised to destroy our oil industry. It's bad.
