Ousting him would be more dangerous. The voters have spoken and neglecting the voice of the republican voters could be a mistake by the republican leaders.

LTC Kevin B. - Trump had an opportunity to show some Presidential leadership after the tragedy in Orlando Fl but instead he used it to just bloviate about how he said this would happened and push his ideas about a Wall, Banning Muslims and Profiling. His ideas were not well received by the country who were not only disappointed with Trump's responses but many were disgusted.

Sgt Tom Cunnally - I don't debate that. He has definitely had a bad week. It has fanned the flames of the Never Trump crowd. I still suspect that it will die down. He's really good at shifting the narrative.

Sgt Tom Cunnally - She has made the case, quite convincingly.
Of course she didn't need to, Trump has demonstrated quite clearly, all on his own, that he is a buffoon and not worthy to be elected Dog Catcher, let alone POTUS.

Ousting him is the obvious response. If the Republican Party wants to maintain the illusion that they are in the best interests of the people and not simply themselves, then they need to stop undermining Trump. He is clearly the voice and candidate of the People. They're only pissed because they can't control him. What they need to do is learn to play ball, get on his good side, and then make some "suggestions" to his cabinet.

Cpl Justin Goolsby Well spoken and I have to support your thoughts. If the GOP continues to divide itself it will loose big time. Get behind Trump, support him, and help him do the right job. But I feel that is a bridge too far.

Personally this could have been a big year for the GOP. 16 candidates to choose from, if they stopped all the in-fighting they could have worked together as a united front. Trump literally could have been their "champion" from the beginning. A politician who can't be bought because he's already rich. If they backed him from the beginning, they could have spent this entire time destroying the Democrat campaign and making selections for future cabinet positions and other openings that will be happening in the next Presidential term. Too busy playing checkers to realize the opponent is playing chess.

Ousting the presumptive nominee would be most dangerous for this nation first and the Republican party second SP5 Mark Kuzinski. While there was heated debate and several other Republican candidates did fairly well, Donald Trump has come out on top.
He is an outsider to politics in every sense of the word. It will be very interesting to see how the conventions unfold - Bernie vs Hillary supporters on the Democrat party side; and formation of the Republican party platform on the Republican side.
