Trash this in the bin. No way is Trump at 55 % Nationally, ZERO chance.

I think you're overestimating the calibre of your party's voters. I'm sorry if this sounds offensive, but the GOP invited the dumbest people in the country (possibly the dumbest people on the planet?) into its core base. Now they're stuck with them. The GOP did everything in its power to make sure that its redneck followers worshipped Trump, and now they expect them to turn on a dime. It's not going to be easy.

Yup, and not just that. Many of the tossup race losses this cycle were winnable for the GOP. However, they nominated the sh*tiest candidates they could find, blowing one race after another. Don't even take it from me, I'm just repeating what McConnell said.

The problem with the base that conservatives and their propaganda machine have created for themselves is that they would rather worship insane, bad candidates than win. Many of them view it as selling out to try and win elections. The left has a similar problem, but the Democrats have done a great job of bullying that crap to the sidelines over the past couple years.
