Trump Loses Republican Endorsement in Pennsylvania, But How Important Is It?

Is this really “huge?”

If you’re a voter at either end of the state, i.e., an easy drive to downtown Philadelphia or Pittsburgh, you already understand the danger that Trump represents to the republic, to international relations, to women’s rights, and to science-based policy making.

But suppose you’re in the middle of the state, and you have essentially the same political sensibilities as the folks in Mississippi or Alabama.  Fox News has convinced you that the Democrats have opened the southern border to vermin who are flooding in and taking your jobs.  Are you swayed by the fact that some Harvard-schooled Republican doesn’t support your hero?

Sorry.  I’d like to think so, but I’m having trouble believing that.
