Go to any GOP-rah-rah website "Fox News," "Enter Stage Right," "National Review," "American Spectator," all are spewing the same level of Democratophobia as the Man of Conviction. Granted, this may not be the PROPER gauge but I just don't buy the whole never-Trumper vibe--after all these folks BIRTHED the likes of Trump, not the other way around. I CERTAINLY wouldn't trust Repubs telling pollsters, "Oh no, I can NEVER support someone like Trump." How the hell did he just glide to the nomination in the first place then?
