Party politics

Dec 10,2015 - Last updated at Dec 10,2015

I don’t think we should take Donald Trump that seriously. From the start of his campaign, I always thought that the leaders in the Republican Party would not allow him to be the party’s nominee because they know that he will not win the presidential election. 

They will choose someone else, like they did in 1952, when they pushed Gen. Dwight Eisenhower to the nomination against the main contender, Robert A. Taft. They knew Taft would not succeed in the election and Eisenhower was a brighter name and he would make it to the presidency.

Trump’s speech on not allowing Muslims into the United States will just strengthen the party’s leaders’ inclination to pick some one winnable.
