Do you realize how morally, spiritually, and intellectually vacant a movement would have to be to be taken over by Donald Trump?
Trump is no fool, despite the way he acts. His talent has always been to walk into a room, identify the easiest marks to exploit and cheat, say exactly what he needs to say to get them to go along with it and then slip away with more money in his pocket than he could loose from it
He saw the GOP as easy prey because of their morally, spiritually, and intellectually vacancy
And the GOP gleefully skipped along, knowing he'd give them their prey. Power, Money and Domination
