The Gospel According to Mad King Donald; Wednesday's outbursts didn't teach us much about Donald Trump. But they taught us a lot about the Republican party.

Don't worry, I wasn't going to vote for them right anyways, but let's say (miraculously) the party turns around after a progressive win and we start shifting in the opposite direction politically for a few decades. Our center has become decidedly more conservative in the last few decades and if we start shifting in the other direction, eventually new, centrist Republicans could have new, innovative policies that are worthy of consideration and I won't automatically discount them because of their party. I will consider the policies and the candidate and vote accordingly.

I WILL however discount one of these R(a)Ts trying to pretend to be progressive when the tides inevitably change.
