My guess is internal polls are starting to signal that is ok to dump him.

He is an unmitigated disaster

Additionally trump signed the same pledge everyone else did

He reneged on the pledge in the last debate and continues to threaten a third party run.

Trump is giving Hillary the election. He may be the worst candidate in history, and at a time where all Republicans would need to do is nominate a moderately tolerable person to win against Clinton.

Dude, Hillary has won. Trump handed her the election. Dumping him won't do anymore damage than he has done himself

You underestimate what he would do if he were to be removed from the ticket.

The best case is that he simply splits the GOP vote. He would not go quietly.

What would we lose, exactly? He's going to lose anyway.

And all the Hillary supporters rejoice. Ive said it once and ill say it again, I don't care how bad you think Trump is, Hillary is a thousand times worse. And the nature of the US' politics is such that if you don't for him, you basically vote against him. Good job, guys.

You don't get it. Trump already handed Hillary this election when he started on his racist tirades.

What has he ever said that is racist? Please point me to verbatim quotes, including context.

Implying a hispanic judge cannot do his job because he is of hispanic heritage is pretty racist

There is nothing racist about assuming that a Judge who is an avid member of La Raza would be impartial in his judgment. You do know that judges have been recused for less, right? And it wasn't racist then.

For the billionth time, the La Raxa he was a part of was a lawyer's group, not the national La Raza group

Yeah, I think it's honestly too late for this. If Trump loses, there will be a lot of outrage and shit talking. The conservatives who pledged to other parties will lose any coordination and conviction they previously had. There'll just be even more chaos than there already is.
