Letter: Trump is a real quandary for Republicans and for America

For a long time now, presidential candidate Donald Trump has been trying real hard to get “fired.” He never expected to get so far in his campaign, never wanted to. He can’t quit because he’s “not a quitter.” It’s a religion with him.

But as his inaccurate, inappropriate, racist comments are quoted widely every day, his supporters, his surrogates, cannot bring themselves to say, “You’re fired!”

A real quandary for Republicans. And for America.

Is there a psychiatrist in the audience? We may have to worry about what Trump will do when he loses.
