My next door neighbors, who have been Trump supporters

since he announced his candidacy have finally had enough.
While they are very conservative they know realize he's nuts and can no longer support him.
I just hope the GOP does not find a way to dump him.

Some kind of bait and switch? The GOP slides someone in who "seems" much more acceptable to run against Hillary?

Not vote? Vote down-ticket only? I love hearing these stories of what people are seeing with their friends and neighbors. It can be a barometer of what the country is feeling.

said he couldn't vote for Trump; but he sounded so downhearted when I asked what he was going to do and he said he didn't know that I dropped it and didn't even try to hint at not voting as an honorable option. He's a good man, very religious, very conservative, very rural South, but not the small-minded bigoted type at all.

white alike, just tired of all the garbage in Washington. Unless something changes they will not be voting in November.

ridiculous statements but having several VP candidates turn him down sealed it.
