    Trump being the GOP front-runner is great news for Democrats.

    The only thing better would be if Trump tried spinning off onto a 3rd party. Dividing the conservative vote would be the best thing to happen to this country in decades.

      Definitely. Trump’s own ego compels him to run for nomination but by running and winning he increases the chances of losing the election and going to prison with nobody to pardon him.

      That said the Democrats need to be very concerned about a 3rd party called “No Labels” that masquerades as a left leaning party but is strongly suspected to be a spoiler party orchestrated by the right. Don’t be surprised if Joe Manchin sleazes his way into the limelight by running as their candidate.
