Conservative reaction to The Trumpublican Party

Conservative reaction to The Trumpublican Party

Is Donald Trump the Republican nominee?

Not *technically,* but it is much, much more likely than a day ago. There is an ever so slight possibility that Trump could be denied 1237 delegates going into the convention. I hope Cruz fights on. [Update – not to be, Cruz suspends campaign.]

Conservatives on Twitter wasted no time in assessing the implications of The Trumpublican Party:

Congratulate the Trump supporters. Tonight will be their high point. In six months, they'll be blaming the rest of us for their choices.

Expect the GOP consultant class to run scurrying to "Mr. Trump" now.

Not seeing many gracious winners. You need unity to win and you won’t get it with vulgarity.

Overwhelming response I'm getting from conservative Trump critics is that never means never.

It's going to be so satisfying, watching you lose in November to an old woman you donated to, and agree with. Glad! https://t.co/1ZVugMXgRO

Americans have complained that politicians are corrupt — then they vote by the millions to have the two most corrupt face off for POTUS.

I am a fiscal conservative and I am a social conservative. That will not change. But I will not vote for an egomaniacal authoritarian. Nope.

Reporters keep asking if Indiana changes anything for me.
The answer is simple: No.

For the record, I also will not be supporting any GOP candidates that campaign with or praise Trump. Fair warning. #NeverTrump

Now commences six months of Trump supporters abjectly begging conservatives to take the blame for their bad decisions.
