Politic when played for keeps is a blood sport. It's how the Republicans have played it. Democrats who think similarly would want Trump in the presidency: after all, why destroy a president when you can go after his entire party? It's the gift that could keep on giving--and since the GOP has demonstrated that it has no standards, it's the party that needs dismemberment, not its standard bearer. Trump was but a symptom of the disease. (For if Trump were just an aberration, then one could argue otherwise. In the end, it's not a question of bringing knife to a gun fight but of bringing a bazooka.)
