Trump survived early primaries and began gathering delegates. It&#8217;s noteworthy that he didn&#8217;t win many of them &#8211; he came in third in Minnesota &#8211; but his aggregation of delegates and refusal to quit ultimately won him the nomination.<\/p>\n<p>Now we&#8217;re finally seeing some action, better late than never, from the old guard of Republicans, men and women who still believe a liberal democracy is the best form of government, a sentiment I doubt could be honestly espoused by President Trump. The question, of course, is how much respect do they still have from current Republican members, and how much influence will they yield? Bush II was certainly a failed Administration, punctuated on each end by the 9\/11 Tragedy and the Great Recession &#8211; but they are still Republicans.<\/p>\n<p>And if more high-level Republicans join?<\/p>\n<p>This should be a signal to the Trump cultists that they&#8217;ve made a serious mistake and it&#8217;s time to rethink what they&#8217;ve done. Unfortunately, so far Fox News hasn&#8217;t come to understand that, so this is just another step along the way, and not the end for Trump. He&#8217;ll just bullshit them as &#8216;losers&#8217; and move on, with the cult trailing along behind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From The Hill: Former officials from the\u00a0George W.
