as a patriotic American I see that as a mandatory development even if it means a stronger Republican candidate. I personally think that Trump would have some moderate positions and I'd prefer him over Rubio. Trump will be a failed Presidency-isolated from both Republican and Democratic support even worse than Jimmy Carter. Right now polls suggest Rubio would be tougher to beat.
