It is. Also, as several have commented, many of us aren't really sold on Trump's sincerety. Does he really mean what he says or will he simply change his mind. I think he started out looking for a little exposure, figured he'd say some outrageous stuff and eventually leave the race after getting a bunch of free PR. Only, a funny thing happened. Trump began rising in the polls, then winning... Now he's sort of a prisoner to his own (probably unexpected) success.

If you want to blame anyone for the rise of Trump, look right to the core of the Republican Party. They supported Boehner, McConnel and the like, essentially kow towing to Obama and ignoring their actual base. The future of the GOP is much more Libertarian and Constitutionalist than the current GOPe.

If Sanders were somehow to win, I believe we would see a real life Constitutional Crisis as various States began to pull back from their participation in the "Union".
