2. Trump is a narcissist

A malignant narcissist based upon his treatment of Clinton and those who oppose him. Narcissists always act with disbelief whenever someone doesn't bow to their "greatnesss.". His reaction to the election and the revelations about his behavior is quite frankly unsurprising. Horrible and disturbed but really unsurprising. He is going to continue to act out and throw fits of anger to election day and probably beyond. Expect a condemnation of the election result rather than a concession.

Hate the GOP all you want but this guy is way worse than anything we have ever seen.

The GOP gave life to the right-wing lunatic fringe, which gave life to Trump.
The only reason some of them are backing away from their Frankenstein is for self-preservation.

But his sick and twisted behavior belongs to him and has been going on long before he decided to run for office.

I expect Trump will head to the courts to challenge PA results

Judges usually throw those suits out. Voter privacy and all that.

current Democratic governor Tom Wolf will be guaranteed a 2nd term when he's up in 2018, because Dems will point out why it's time for the GOP to go due to their Trump-embracing. As it is, we need to have Wolf there during the 2020 census and redistricting.

5. Trump is the GOP

We keep hearing Trump is worse than the past GOP. Nah, this is what they have been for decades. He just does not pretend like they have. Of course there have always and will always be decent Republicans....but the base supporters and officials have always held Trump's beliefs. He just exposed it more obviously.

our Dem candidate was able to force Toomey to admit that he would probably vote for Trump (something that he has danced around and avoided answering for months).

Checkmate!

and Toomey is screaming to the press that Gov Wolf should release
his Senate challenger's emails within two weeks before Election Day

Hypocrite!
