The pledge includes a clause saying that the candidate will support the eventual GOP nominee.

    Doubtful, many repubs are probably sealed witnesses which would explain the speed with which everything is moving.

    Are you referring to the trials? The best case scenario for Trump opponents is to delay them.

    They know that if he is actually convicted, that will seal his nomination with the party’s base, who have a persecution complex and will have no problem at all voting for a felon (while driving to the polls with a “thin blue line” decal on the car, ignoring the irony).

      Nope best case for his opponents is a split repub ticket with a convicted trump. If they win good great, they can try to pardon Trump and move on. If they lose they have an excuse and possible route to legal remedy and reelection.
