Republicans are getting tons of media attention for Donald Trump’s photo op tour of DC, but they are getting something else. Lots of angry protesters.

The paper mache head is going over very well with the press:

The reality for Republicans is that Trump is going to bring them media attention. As in seriously, when is the last time that one hundred reporters were staking out the RNC waiting for the Republican presidential nominee to show up for a chat?

The way Trump gets the media attention is by turning off waves of voters that are vital to the Republican Party’s chances in 2016. Trump isn’t a double edged sword for the Republican Party. He is a single sharp dagger pointed at the heart of the GOP.

Congratulations, Republicans. You’ve turned a routine story into a complete media debacle, but as the protesters who met Trump in DC demonstrated, you’re also selling your souls to a racist overlord who is going to destroy any chance you once at had at victory in 2016.
