so what happens if the trump is not the republican nominee

I just find it hard to believe he would do the work to run, and I don't think he would enjoy the short leash he would be on. There is a lot of time to the convention - I am trying to think how it will happen but I really believe it would.
so if he is not the nominee - how does that affect the democratic convention? .

That is what I believe, and time will tell. If Hillary is the nominee, I doubt I will be around here, anyway.

All of her "misspeaks" and other indications of her poor judgments, not good.
