Can the GOP unite behind Trump?

That's the idiotic question I keep hearing on the national media. What a dumb question. Of course they can. They have united behind some of the worst, weird, wacky, selfish, narcissistic, racist, and criminal politicians I thought I would never see in my lifetime. Of course they will unite to screw the country even further by rolling back anything from the new deal that benefits the average citizen. How do those people cheering on the convention even wake up and look in the mirror? They have to be completely in denial, or stupid, or, really rich, or all of the above. What a sick group of voters.

There's no annoying conscience to get in the way.
