His campaign promises range from idiotic to unconstitutional, and he appears to put as much thought into his campaign promises as his Twitter feed.
Yet this is the GOP candidate. I will admit, I never expected he would get even this far; frankly, that makes me a little less confident in my prediction that he will lose this fall (because I thought he would lose in the primary, so I've been wrong about him once already).
But Trump is a truly, truly, TRULY terrible candidate. If Hillary can't beat him, she can't beat anybody.
On the other side, republicans everywhere must feel so depressed. Honestly, I don't know what outcome is worse for them: a Trump loss of McGovern-sequel proportions, with down-ticket results that sweep democrats into firm control of congress... Or a Trump victory, followed by the slow realization that their brand will be forever tarnished by its association with a truly disastrous presidency that sets the conservative movement back decades.

I agree with you, but if Hillary can't manage to put away Sanders than you have to wonder how she'll fare against Trump.
