And we could add to that list you started...Nichole Wallace, Steve Schmidt, Joe Scarborough, David Jolly, Richard Painter to name a few more...and that's just a short list on a single cable TV channel. These are "professional" Republicans who are diehard conservatives, so if that many are bailing it makes you wonder just how many regular rank-and-file average Joes are doing the same.

I'm under no illusions that these folks are suddenly all left-wing libbies who have seen the light...but they sure have seen the darkness that emanates from Trump and what he's turned the GOP into, and they want no part of it. Interesting thing is just as their defection has made me realize that not every con is the devil in disguise (just maybe 95% of 'em!) it seems to me that they also have come to realize that not all Democrats are socialists hellbent on confiscating their entire net worth. So I welcome them all as allies even if the arrangement turns out to be a temporary one.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
