Subject: Re: the next nominee
I think there is too much lining up against trump for him to succeed this time. The Koch Brothers have announced they will be funding a candidate that is NOT trump. The rest of the candidates I have heard mention the importance of dropping out early to whoever is leading in the polls when we get close to the primary elections. I have no idea who will get the nomination, and I think anybody who does is just guessing. I have heard that past poll leaders this early in the game almost never end up being the nominee.

While it appears nobody is going to war with Trump, That is more choosing not to play his game, but to play a different game. I think it is a matter of depriving trump of his oxygen. It will be interesting to see how it turns out.

The interesting words I heard today were something like, "Trump is the past; the GOP needs to move forward"...
