Lots of people who would happily vote for a ham sandwich if it had an R after its name. My "Bush-Can-Do-No-Wrong" father-in-law has told me he can't vote for Drumpf, and a lot of friends who are straight-ticket Republican voters have said the same thing. My fear is that if Drumpf is no longer the nominee, those people will all flood back to vote for WHOEVER replaces him, and this might actually turn into a tight race. They should be forced to dance with the one what brung 'em.
