The Stupid Party vs. the Evil Party – WSJ

The support for Mr. Trump is overwhelmingly an emotional rush and blood feud. But come election time, Democrats won t do emotion. They re bloodless, with eyes only on the prize. As Bill Clinton said after the 1996 election to Bob Dole who complained about unfair Clinton attack ads: You gotta do what you gotta do. This time, Democrats will take the advice of a Clinton who knew how to win.

Mr. Trump s capture of the GOP nomination could become secure if their support for him in polls rises into the strong 60% or even 70% range. That polling momentum, propelled by anti-prosecution rage, could produce early, fait-accompli Trump wins in Iowa, New Hampshire and then South Carolina on Feb. 24.

Once Democrats conclude the Republican Party has arrived at a point of no return on a Trump candidacy, it will be time for another Clyburn moment.
