    I think she knows she’s a protest vote.

    What are the rules if Trump suddenly dies? I can’t imagine they just crown her the nomination.

      Someone could expose the whole charade before the end of the Primaries… And he’d still get the nomination.

      I think the real reason that Koch foundation, etc al, funded her campaign until last week was still that they’d have somebody qualified in case it’s rolled that Trump is ineligible.
