The Former Party Of Lincoln Has Completed its Trumpsformation
Although the GOP had little hope of stopping Trump before yesterday, last night’s results sealed the deal, effectively delivering the final and fatal blow to the Republican Party as we know it. Trump’s newly-minted position as presumptive GOP nominee has fellow Republicans predicting that the Party “will get destroyed” and others “rac[ing] to distance themselves from Mr. Trump” by any means possible.
While it’s not clear what the GOP is going to do about the Party’s demise from within, one thing is clear: #NeverTrump became #EventuallyTrump and now the GOP has officially stamped what they like to call the “party of Lincoln” the #PartyofTrump. “The comb-overthrow of the Republican party is complete.”
