Because Trumpists have such a great record winning congressional primaries, right?

The entire GOP will be exclusively Trumpist from now on, haven't you heard?

I honestly hope Babeu loses his House race this year so that stupid pedophile won't run for higher office, and hopefully a good Republican can pick up that seat in 2018. If Flake loses his primary to a nutcase in 2018, the seat could flip.

LOL no, Flake is still a horrible person even if he's among the few Republican Senators standing up to Trump.

They do. See McCain, Ryan, and Rubio.

Exactly, and while they aren't exactly Trump-esque candidates themselves, you have to wonder how they would've done in their primaries if they had refused to endorse him. I'd bet quite a bit McCain would have lost.

McCain would have, but the other two weren't close enough.

And I'm sure they had strategic reasons for endorsing Trump, but that doesn't mean that we should forgive them for it.
