Over the last few days, Republican leaders have been rescinding their support of Donald Trump in droves, and even standard-bearers like Paul Ryan have had to say that they can't defend him or campaign for him anymore. Maybe Trump could've survived that. But now, with a pair of earthshaking new revelations, it's impossible to escape the idea that Trump is just done.

Back in February, on her since-deleted Twitter, the fight-starting club-rapper Banks announced her intentions to vote for Trump: "I think Trump is the only one who truly has the balls to bust up big business.
