It's too late to change the ballots. Voting has already started in a lot of states. They could organize a "write in" campaign - this has happened successfully in some state-wide elections. But, ain't going to work nationally.

Republicans can't change their mind now. Time to be a grownup and live with the consequences of nominating an unelectable fool.

That's the thing, the GOP is going to suffer right now, as they should for electing Trump, but the tide he represents isn't going anywhere and it's going to have to be dealt with eventually. There's a real groundswell of what's basically nihilism out there - you see it in Trump's movement, you saw some of it in Bernie's movement, and it's been growing in this country since at least 2008 if not even before that with the anti-Bush sentiment (and maybe even the anarchist anti globalization protests that came before that). Too many people in this country hate government and hate the people associated with it. Since Hillary is a perfect epitome of the status quo and the establishment, this is just going to keep growing over the next 4 years. I'm not sure where it's headed, but I don't see it burning out or being mollified in the next few years. It blew up the GOP this time and it almost blew up the Democratic party. I'm not sure it doesn't go further next time.

To this day, she still polls as the most hated politician in America. More than any Bush or Clinton or Trump or Pelosi or Boehner or Reed and etc. SH blindly loves that idiot so much that they doesn't realize any one of us could beat her in an election. A random hobo could probably beat Palin at this point.

This. conks are toast....seriously, did we expect anything other than this epic fail from them? :lol:

hilldog will now have the senate so she can stack SCOTUS with whoever she wants. At that point whatever conservative legislation that comes out of the house, or from a state will have no shot at making it.

1) The RNC convene and nominate somebody new under Rule 9 which states that the 168 party committee members can replace a nominee in the case of "death, declination, or otherwise." Early voting has already occurred. Nobody see's this happening.

I doubt there is anything you could do. Unless Trump resigns immediately after he's inaugurated (if elected) making Pence the POTUS. Therefore, any vote this Election Day is a vote for Pence.

Either way, we're screwed.
The best thing that can happen to the GOP is to have Clinton win in a landslide of historic proportions. That way there would be SOME hope of making people who voted for Trump during the primaries realize they made a tremendous mistake so that this kind of situation can hopefully be avoided in the future.

Trump is simply a host unto himself. The Dems are holding their noses and voting for Clinton. The good news is that the GOP has depth in Congress, Governorships and I think State Legislatures. They just can't get a viable, POTUS candidate.


Personally, I fault the RNC to a point for allowing 18 people to run. They should e controlled it and forced Trump to run as an Indy.

So what you're suggesting is that "they", meaning the GOP, should rig things like the Democrats so that only establishment politicians can win the nomination?
