For me, 35 years as a registered Republican (since age 18) ends not with a bang, but a shrug.  The Palin selection in 2008, Joe Miller, now Trump.  In retrospect, this became inevitable, the second that "Mainstream Republicans" gave a wink and a nod to the "Obama is a Kenyan, Muslim, Manchurian candidate who has been bred since conception to destroy our country."  Independent for now, who will always vote for #NeverTheCrazy# first, constitutionalist second.
