Big win!  Republican voters in PA came out yesterday and overwhelmingly chose the clown to be their party's standard bearer.  It really wasn't a surprise, though, was it?  I mean, the clown had sewn up the nomination more than a month ago and there really was no need for anyone to even vote in primaries anymore.  Still... 83% is a big number.

However, when you consider that, on a Tuesday in April, after their party's nominee had already been determined, 155 THOUSAND registered republicans in the Keystone State took time out of their busy day to tell their party and their country that they did NOT want the clown to represent their party.  Nikki Haley got 155K votes and she had dropped out of the race more than a month ago.  If you were to measure support for a candidate, those who were really positive about him would vote for him, those who were not so positive would probably just stay home, but if you were a registered republican, and you REALLY didn't like Donald Trump as your candidate, you would take the time to leave work, drive to the polling place, stand in line, go through the check in process, get in the booth and vote for a woman you KNEW would not get any delegates based upon that vote.

If you are one of those 155K Republicans in Pennsylvania who go out of your way to vote against the clown in a primary, I'm gonna say you're the kind of voter who will vote for Joe Biden in November.  Trump only beat Hillary in 2016 by 44K.  I'd imagine he's gonna need every GOP voter to stay the course and not bolt.
