Back in the first debate, in another lifetime, there was considerable consternation that Trump would not take "the pledge" to support the Republican nominee and not run as an independent.
I have to wonder what exactly the establishment has in mind for November? This seems so much like Bush 43's decision to topple Hussein. We know he's a bad guy, we may or may not be able to link him to weapons of mass frustration (the KKK thing), so let's blow this up. What's next? No idea. Party building is as difficult as nation building.
What do they think will happen with the people who support Trump if they break their pledge? Romney's going to go on the air tomorrow to announce this break, presumably. Tomorrow's debate will be a free-for-all. What is the end game?
