I feel as though if it were any other time in America, any other president, they would have ditched him and found another candidate. Someone equally conservative, I'm sure. The country would have been better off for it.

Its not hard to find someone who is "conservative." The problem is getting enough people to turn out to vote for them. The beauty of Trump (if you want to call it that) is that he provided a lot of motivation for people to come out and vote on the GoP side.

The truth is people don't really vote for policies, they vote on the basis of emotion and identity. The GoP recognizes this--the Democrats think policy is meaningful. The joke is on them.
