Pretty much. It was inevitable that it would come to this. The only surprise is how rapidly it is going once it got started.

We have Cruz to thank for this. If he ever dreamed he would be the Republican nominee, that is pretty much out of the window at this juncture. I suppose you can say that he planned on splitting off the Teahadis because he definitely would be their candidate. But it is painfully obvious he never had a plan. He was just playing by ear, which is why things spun so far out of control.

These numbers are bad enough for Republicans. But the situation may be far worse. The GOP is not only being defeated, but it is in some serious danger of falling apart. Republican infighting could cost Republicans enough votes among its white base to take out of serious competition in national politics.

Yup. The GOP is quickly losing its capability of being a presidential party.
