Nobody finds it troubling all these neocons lining up behind her? They seem very comfortable with her FP decisions Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yemen etc.

Troubling? Maybe a little. What's 100 times more troubling is the prospect of Trumo ever having the ability to make foreign policy decisions.

I can handle an H.W. endorsement because he's so old and was president a long time ago, but Dubya and Jeb! need to keep their mouth shut.

Republicans who think that "Trumpism" will just go away after Trump loses and that the Republicans will nominate another Bush-type Republican in 2020 are deluding themselves.

People who think Trumpism represents a coherent set of views that will survive past Donald Trump's candidacy rather than a segment of the population overjoyous that a candidate will publicly say all of the xenophobic and racist things they say behind close doors and cloak it as "straight talk" are deluded.

Of course they're deluded, but they have enough share of the Republican primary vote to push their candidate into the nomination. Why would that change in 4 years? It's not like they'll leave the party if Trump loses.
