Do you think they'll "Dump Drumpf" NOW?

Which are they likely to think would be worse...leaving the guy in place and trying to save the Senate and House, or somehow replacing him with Pence or somebody else in order to avoid losing the suburban white female vote(and having to sleep on the couch every night) for at least the next twelve years?

Corollary...if they actually do show the gonads to dump him at this late date, what's your guess as to the write-in vote share Mr. Furniture would pull against a replacement nom?

They'll definitely try to oust him as nominee, and put someone in to "take one for the team".

They will PROBABLY oust him, but they're not sure Trump doesn't have something on them.

They'd like to, but they're scared of pissing off THAT many white guys with guns.

They won't, because THEY secretly talk about women that way.

Not sure...but I think they somehow have this whole thing "gamed".

The answer is:

Not possible: people have already voted in some states. It is too late to change the ballot in some states. No party would throw their national campaign into such a clusterfuck even if it was already a clusterfuck.

So they can decide they're ok losing this one, but he is their nominee, will be on the ballot in November, and people are already voting.
