[quote=zk]Hypothetical scenario: Late October, and it becomes apparent that Trump is going to lose. Do many republican politicians who are still endorsing Trump at that time suddenly jump ship, hoping to save their careers? Calculating that it will sooner or later become the consensus of the vast majority of Americans that Trump truly was a lying, racist, misogynist, fascist, thin-skinned, vengeful, war-loving (his own words) ignoramus who would’ve been an extremely dangerous president, and not wanting to be seen as having blindly supported him?
That would be interesting to watch.[/quote]
I don’t think your going to see that many people walk back from that endorsement. There just aren’t a lot of competitive races for house or senate. I guess we can watch Darrell Issa. He endorsed Trump and is in a competitive race for his seat in the house. I think in a competitive race my best guess is candidates are going to try to walk away from Trump and Clinton if they can. They definitely don’t want that to be the focus of their campaign.
At this point I still believe Neither or Anybody Else would win in a landslide vs Trump or Clinton. This is seriously the election of I’m voting so the other person won’t win. I guess I can vote for the libertarian candidate Gary Johnson again.
