Inside the Republican Party’s Desperate Mission to Stop Donald Trump - The New York Times
"Efforts to unite warring candidates behind one failed spectacularly: An overture from Senator Marco Rubio to Mr. Christie angered and insulted the governor. An unsubtle appeal from Mitt Romney to John Kasich, about the party’s need to consolidate behind one rival to Mr. Trump, fell on deaf ears. At least two campaigns have drafted plans to overtake Mr. Trump in a brokered convention, and the Senate majority leader, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, has laid out a plan that would have lawmakers break with Mr. Trump explicitly in a general election."
It’s more fun than watching a train wreck, especially since there is a growing suspicion in neighboring precincts that The Donald could make Clinton melt, like the Wicked Witch of the West (or East, or wherever—I never could keep them straight). If we put this contest on pay-per-view we could settle the national debt.
The good news is, this whole thing could be settled by March 16. And then we can move on to obsessing about 2020 (and what the iPhone 7 will be like).
