    I’m concerned that the only other option in American politics besides trump just wiped out an entire states primary for something the state party can’t control…

    If you’re not upset about what that means, I don’t know what else to say that wasn’t in my first comment.

      I know you’re probably too young to know this, but you just described the American electoral process. This is how the incumbent advantage works. The overwhelming majority of the time, a party will not primary the incumbent candidate because it would be incredibly stupid.

      Stop talking about it as if it’s in any way notable.
